Description

Island restaurant presents a varying dining experience, highlighted by standout dishes like the endless chicken tortilla soup, praised for its flavor and generous portions. The service often shines, with attentive staff making guests feel welcomed, even in busy times. However, inconsistencies mar the experience, including overcooked meals and order mistakes.

The drinks were excellent, the burgers were fantastic, and the service was outstanding. I happened to be in Pasadena yesterday, and since most places have closed where I live, it was a real treat to enjoy the best burger, the Kilauea. The staff was incredible—so friendly and kind. Thank you so much!

We had a fantastic experience! Our server, David, truly deserves all the accolades; he represents exemplary service. My husband and I each ordered the Kilauea burger—his came with chili, and it was absolutely perfect. We also shared some chips and salsa, truffle fries, and onion rings. To top it off, we enjoyed a Tiki Thai cocktail and a Big Island Iced Tea. Everything was superb. We’ll definitely be returning!

I went to try their Double Stack Burger Lunch Break special for $9.99, and it was decent. The flavor reminded me of burgers from The Habit or In-N-Out, which are both great options too. The Island Fries were hot and crispy, and the young man who served me was friendly. Plus, there’s free parking in the lot.

Even though it was the weekend, this place was buzzing! The staff were incredibly attentive—no waiting at all. The Malibu Burger was amazing, so juicy and flavorful. Definitely no regrets choosing it. The fries were cooked to perfection, crispy just the way I like them. The bathrooms were spotless, and there was plenty of parking available. I loved that they had surfing on one TV and football on another. I wish I could come here more often. I downloaded the app and scored a coupon—awesome!

I always have a great time at this restaurant, but it tends to be a bit too chilly inside. The staff is wonderful, and the food is really delicious. I do wish the cocktails, particularly the Bulleit, were a bit stronger, though. Hahaha!
