    I didn't get a chance to snap a picture of my food. But I got the teriyaki burger, and would highly suggest it! Everyone working there was happy to see anyone walk in, and very pleasant overall. I loved the small town, ma and pop fell to the place, keeping this on my list to come back

    Coming from SoCal, the smashburger capital, I thought Betty's was aight. I thought the retro diner design was unique and fun, and they have a big menu. I just got their simple hamburger and the patty was on the saltier side but tasted good with the soft bun. I also thought it was so adorable how they draw their own designs on the paper bag they give! Makes for a personalized keepsake.

    First time eating at Betty's Burger joint. Came with a good friend of mine who says this is his favorite burger joint. I ordered the blue cheese and bacon burger and the patty was cooked too perfection. Loads of blue cheese and top with two strips of crispy bacon. Had it with some onion rings and it was a perfect pairing. Service was a great and the food came out nice and hot just off the grill. This is a small restaurant and probably only seats about 20 people and they do get busy. We came off hours and I would suggest you do the same. If you're in the mood for a old time burger Betty's burger joint is your place.

    In case anyone wonders, I did show her this photo and she cheerfully agreed I could use it on Yelp.

    I've been wanting to try Betty's Burger Joint for a while, but waited for the right opportunity. Yesterday, my wife said she was craving a burger and asked if I could pick some up at the nearby burger place the next day for lunch. I knew which one she meant, but suggested Betty's instead, since we hadn't tried it before. She agreed. I began describing the options to her, and when I mentioned "spicy," she decided on that one. This morning, I suggested ordering three different kinds and splitting them, which sounded good to her. I've seen the outside numerous times, but had never gone in before. I walked in, looked around, and was greeted by a pleasant, welcoming face behind the counter. I had made a list before arriving, so after confirming that the numbering was the same, I ordered #3, #10, and #11 to go: 3. Betty's Deluxe with Cheese 10. Shroom and Guac 11. Betty's Spicy Burger As I waited for my order, I consciously focused on what I had read in a couple of reviews about the place being hot. I say "consciously" because I usually don't pay much attention to temperature unless it's extreme. I noted that it was a bit warm, though there was also a cool breeze moving through the room. After a few minutes, the gentleman handing out the orders called my name and came directly to me with the bag. I hurried home knowing my wife was waiting for lunch. We cut each sandwich in half, and I pointed out the spicy one to my wife. She tasted it and remarked that it was just a little spicy, but that it tasted good anyway. After finishing that one, she tried the Shroom and Guac but didn't like the taste. By then, she was too full to try the Deluxe with Cheese, so I ended up tasting everything and finishing the rest. For me, the Shroom and Guac was a little too mushy, making it hard to pick out the taste and texture of the mushrooms. The Spicy Burger was okay, but it seemed that the only thing making it spicy was a few slices of jalapenos. I liked the Deluxe with Cheese the best and would order it again when I'm in the mood for a burger from Betty's. Overall a positive experience.

    I didn't have high expectations coming here. It was a spur of the moment type of thing only because my husband didn't want The Daley and I wasn't in the mood to wait a long time at Chubbies. So we took a chance with Betty's and I'm so glad we did! I was a little overwhelmed with their menu, but as soon as I saw "Spicy," I knew exactly what I wanted to order. When we received our food, I was taken back at how crunchy both the onion rings and fries were! And that burger was so simple and so delicious, that I bragged to my husband that I'd rather come here from now on! It's so good! We got: 2 Betty's Spicy Burgers 2 Cheeseburgers 1 Single bacon cheeseburger 1 Double bacon cheeseburger delux 4 large fries 2 onion rings 3 drinks and 4 milk shakes

    Saw this place online and decided to walk from our hotel to try it, very close by Waikiki! We got the spicy burger and the chicken teriyaki burger along with a small order of fries. For the reasonable prices it's a good spot. The spicy burger was okay it lacked of flavor and was loaded with pickled jalapeños hence the "spicy" but I'd rather just get a regular double cheeseburger next time. The chicken teriyaki burger was great probably one of the favorites. Fries were a huge portion and large which was great and delicious! We asked for sauce and we got the Betty's sauce and we loved i

    Surprised I did not already review Betty's Burgers. We got take out during Covid and I loved their food. Fast forward to a couple days ago when I had a hamburger at another place and it was so bad (they mixed the meat with something to stretch it) I craved a real hamburger. So yesterday we stopped by. I got a bacon cheeseburger deluxe, small order of fries, and order of onion rings. Just for me. And ate most of the French fries on our drive home they were so good. I didn't order the double cheeseburger since I'm trying to limit my meat and the sandwich was still huge and satisfying. I did not make any changes to the order even though it had sauce and pickles but they all added to the taste. They also grilled the bun which was nice. I usually will only eat half a burger and save the rest for later but I ate the burger, finished the fries and the onion rings. It's not cheap, surprised that it set me back over $20 but it was totally worth it and I can't wait to go back to get more of those French fries. I ordered it to take out and went over and did a little shopping at Nijiya and it was ready when I came back. There is parking behind, just look for a small driveway. They give you one hour free parking.

    A small burger place in the heart of uh student country in pucks alley (small odd and old stripmall but known as business center) It sits on the outside streetside of the complex. It definetely fits the part of a college kid hangout with outside patio seating on the sidewalk and a hip surfer chilll vibe inside... Be warned ! There is no Ac inside!! heat from the kitchen can definetely be felt...they have a few fans to blow around said hot air but not a cool place to dine in unless outside ambient temp is on the cool side with breeze....Outside patio seating is alot cooler in temp and vibe. Menu is mainly burgers fries and shakes. Portions is decent and price is manageable...I got the bacon cheese burger...I honestly could barely taste the bacon and the burger seemed to be lacking seasoning.... maybe was an off day..in any case worth a visit and maybe a return. Visit as well..

    We were in the mood for a smash burger. Haven't been here before but this place got good reviews. Super glad we came! Free parking through the alley behind the building, dog friendly, and courteous staff. It's got a 1960's burger/ surf shack vibe and the food was fantastic. Highly recommend.

    Located on University Avenue going up towards U.H. Of Hawaii on the right side they have a parking lot. They do not validate parking, but if you are there for less than 1 hour parking is free. It was so hot I don't know if the air conditioner was broken or they don't have air conditioning, because they had fans going in the dining area. I ordered the Betty's Burger it was pretty dry and not juicy, it was not the best burger I ever had. The onion rings were very good it looked like they cut their own onions and batter them, the onion rings came out hot and crispy and the inside was real onion. The French fries were gold and it came out hot and crispy. My wife had the teriyaki burger and said it was okay, but on the messy side. The chicken Caesar salad was good and it had lots of shredded chicken, Restroom are located outside of restaurant used by all tenants.

    The Burger Study ..

    Everyone Ordered the #6 Double bacon Deluxe with cheese Captain Messy Hands, Keeper of the Drip: This burger hits the mark with just the right amount of juice and a solid, balanced flavor throughout. I wish I had more of their BB sauce -- still destination-worthy and respectable, but that extra drizzle would have pushed it closer to legendary.Ruled by Captain Messy Hands -- must drip or be dismissed. ------------------------------------------------ Double stack Daddy: The beef patties were cooked great. (Could have used more flavor) & they forgot my bacon overall it was a good burger & the fries were ONO! ------------------------------------------------ Braddah Big Buns: Double bacon deluxe cheese burger with sriracha mayo. Patty was pretty good. Toppings and sauce were good. Buns were not bad. Overall, da burger get action! ------------------------------------------------ The Premium Purists: The beef patties were cooked well and were juicy. The beef flavor was good but the burger was lacking in the deluxe toppings. ------------------------------------------------ The Stack Analyst: Shoutout to the cashier and the cooks, everyone was super cool and the burger came out fresh. Ordered the Bacon Deluxe. I like toppings and even though this one kept it pretty minimal, it had all the essentials. Stack integrity was solid though I think a little more seasoning on the patty would've helped bring the whole stack together even more

    Solid burger spot on University Ave. near UH Manoa. Betty's Burgers is a small burger restaurant with a parking lot to the side and in the back. This is a parking lot for Puck's Alley businesses. While the lot looks small and tight, there is additional parking in the structure through the initial lot tucked in Puck's Alley. It is just a bit steep to drive up to the additional parking. The restaurant itself has some seating outside and inside. It has a retro, diner sort of feeling to it. There are lots of colors, some umbrellas, and metal tables. When walking into the restaurant, the counter is straight ahead. The people working are friendly, and they were efficient with our order. We got Betty's Classic Burger, Bacon Deluxe Burger with Cheese, fries, a peanut butter shake, and a blueberry shake. The burgers were good -- they were tasty and filling. The fries were also a good size and had some flavor to them. They reminded me a bit of Popeyes fries. The peanut butter shake was so good. The blueberry shake was a bit sweet for us and did not seem to have a strong blueberry flavor. However, it was a good and sweet shake. The prices for everything felt pretty fair as well. Looking forward to coming back to try another burger!

    Menu board

    The burger was delish! Simple burger at a good price! I had the #5 (bacon delux + cheese) with small fries. And #11 (Spicy burger with grilled onions) Total was $31.5

    Is there aircon?

    No, and it's quite hot in there. There are lots of floor fans and outside seating, but it gets toasty!

    Do they serve alcohol?

    They do not - but they make some amazing milkshakes!

    Do they do curbside pickup?

    Nope, according to the cashier today.

    Everything about this little shop is awesome. I believe the owner was there to take our order and…read morethe menu is pretty straight forward. At the time, he stated that him and his partner were in a competition to see how many triples they could sell, but figured I'd keep that in the back of my mind for our next visit. We came here on a recommendation from my boyfriend's coworker and I'm glad we came! The burgers and fries were made fresh. There are only a hand full of tables inside and a small bar area, but there is also outdoor seating outside, too! A neat fact is that there were pictures posted from when the shop first opened up and to see They Daley as a fixture in Chinatown is amazing since they've stuck around and adapted to the development around. The burger was delicious, too. They have an aioli sauce that was good with diced up pickles. Usually I request no pickles but the small bursts really added to the texture and feel of the burger overall. 10/10 would come again!

I'm pleased to report that this latest order contained a perfectly prepared burger and a bag of crispy fries (as ordered). The remaining nitpicks were: 1) having to wait an additional 10 minutes past the time the order was supposed to be ready, 2) paying $6 for a bag of fries. Increase the price of the burger by $1 and reduce the price of the fries. Yes, the total would be the same but the value would be where it belongs. In any case, $10 is money well spent for a great burger.

    I came in ready to experience a life-changing Wagyu burger... the kind that makes you question…read moreevery burger you've ever eaten. Instead, I had a really good burger. I ordered the Wagyu Deluxe Burger, and don't get me wrong--it was juicy, well-seasoned, and served on a soft, slightly sweet bun that tied everything together nicely. It was delicious! But if you blindfolded me, I don't know if I could confidently tell you it was Wagyu. It tasted very similar to a really good smash burger, so unless you're trying to impress your taste buds (or your wallet), I'd probably just order the original smash burger next time. One thing to keep in mind: there was only one guy running the whole operation when I visited. He was taking orders, cooking, and doing everything short of cloning himself. So if the place gets busy, expect a little wait. Honestly, respect to him for keeping it all together. Parking is a bit of a treasure hunt since there are only a few stalls. I got lucky and snagged the last spot, but street parking may be your backup plan. The inside was clean, spacious, and a comfortable place to enjoy your meal. Overall, I'd definitely come back--next time I'll save a few bucks, grab the original smash burger, and let the lone burger superhero work his magic.

Charred hot dog bun, hot dog itself was just okay. Service was good and friendly but it did take some time for food to come out. Place was mostly clean. I had to brush off a ton of powder or something grainy from my seat before I sat down but otherwise the place was nice and seat was comfortable. It's borrowing the space of a completely different restaurant and it's obvious because there's a cooktop in the middle of each table. No points deducted for that though. Just info. Seems like a lot of folks order takeout, but there were also a number of tables filled when I went. I'd come back for sure. That burger was just so good! And good price.

There is a private lot that you can park in, so parking is free and not an issue. However, looking for this place might be. It's literally just a black door with a white window and red light above it that's located next to the stairs and on the first floor. Just roll up to the door/ window where you can find their menu. It's a pretty small menu but what is offered is out of this world! I don't know where else you would get a double patty smash burger for only $9! Just push the button and a guy will open The window to help you. Once you place your order bell close it again and you'll just have to wait for it to be prepared. He'll open it up again when your food is ready and that is when you pay for your goods. It gave me mafia vibes here and it felt so secretive lol. Kind of like a speakeasy but for burgers?

The place is very hard to locate, due to the lack of good signage, but it's in the shopping center right next to the Lobster King. Parking is very difficult too, so maybe have another person with you who can order and wait for the food. I'm not going to lie, the wait time for the food is extremely long for just burgers and fries--took more than 30 minutes--but please keep in mind this is a small business. I think there were only 2 or 3 people working, an auntie, uncle, and a younger guy who I believe was cooking. The food looked so beautiful but everything was too salty and the patties were way too charred, which I'm hoping was a one off thing. I did DM them on social media shortly after picking up our order and they said it was an off day. They offered for me to come back one day so they can make things right, but I don't know if I'll have the time to swing by anytime soon. I truly hope this business does well, they are the sweetest people I've met in the last few months, and I wish them nothing but the best. I hope others have a better experience than I did. I mean look at how beautiful their burgers are!
