Came in today with my family and nothing but horrible customer service! Don't waste your time or money here the people that work there do not deserve it. Waited in the drive thru line for 5 minutes before someone even spoke and gave me attitude when they messed up on my shake. Go to McDonald's instead you'll save a shit ton of money and have a better experience read more

Great little place. You gotta come and eat here. Everything from Food Service & ambience Super Great Place.

Love the food biscuits and gravy and good prices... Taylor and the gang are super attentive and treat everyone well. Thanks

I don't usually leave reviews, had excellent and prompt service, my server seemed to go above and beyond, even noticed her turn another customers frown upside down. Thought about it all day before I left this review. Blown away by the thoughtfulness and care of my server. Awesome person and gave perfect service. Linguica skillet was great! Good service should be credited these days and I wasn't going to not say something. Server called Ashley made my morning a good one. read more

We've had their breakfast burritos and it was so good! Now we tried the escalon** burger and fries and it was also very good. The employees are super friendly and funny, we will be coming back anytime we're in the area. They are super fast too! read more

The wait is forever, food is good, but the wait is crazy long. Only go if you are not in a hurry.

Love the burgers and the huge selection. The onion rings have a great batter. And the beer is always cold!

I drove from the next town over just to get a burger from Hula's, they are that good! Fresh, hot, and tasty! I'm also a huge fan of the rootbeer floats. Somehow they are just better! The service was especially friendly today! I was encouraged to eat a free sample of soft serve while I waited for my food. I left with my burger and a smile! Thanks Julian for spreading good vibes! read more

I just had a bacon cheeseburger and fries with the complimentary ice cream. Excellent! Great food, charming indoors, economical, and service was excellent. I even overheard them respectfully and skillfully handle a silly (I heard it) complaint about a milkshake. Well done, Hula's! read more

Not impressed. For me customer service says a lot. My encounter there was not great. Sorry not sorry. I'm not going to tip you for going through. On top of that I won't be going back due to her smart remark about it. I'm sure no huge loss but in this day and age I would think it would matter at some point. Ps food was ok and a little pricey for what it was read more

Foods great. MANAGER TONY is Crap. Want to support the workers but hate to support someone who does not take positive criticism or put actual care and concern into quality care and responses. We love the soft serve and hula burgers. Fries are so similar to home made. Occasional soggy buns if in styrofoam Togo containers. Recycled crate paper would be beneficial for more than one reason. Looking forward to a respectful return comment. read more

Hula's location Escalon, CA Here's my story: Prologue: I passed by this joint many times on my way to Oakdale. My first thought, it's some Hawaiian BBQ joint. I asked my Pops "what's this place about"? He told me it was a burger joint. I was passing through once again and decided to try this place out. I made a wise choice. Thanks Dad The main story: Hulas has free WiFi and that's a plus. The customer service is pretty nice. There's outside seating. I live for outside seating. There was very a cool breeze that passed through on my visit. That was nice because it was the beginning of Summer. I picked out the avocado chicken burger with a choice of fries, soup of the day or house salad. The wait time wasn't long at all and received service with a smile. The chicken avocado sandwich was really good and filled me up. The salad was crisp and fresh. Just the way I like it. I will definitely come to Hulas the next time I'm passing through.

Updating my review. The owner reached out wanting to improve the product, which I think is very stand up of him. The breakfast burrito has improved, it is not all potato as before. It did have more flavor this time around. I asked for the bacon crispy, it was not. I do think seasoning the potatoes generously would help to improve the overall flavor. I also ordered the Belgian waffle, and liked it. read more

Burgers are my go to! They're super filling! I've also tried appetizers and pretty much everything is good! No complaints :)

Charming little roadside place with the walls draped with local sport memorabilia and service is served with a cheerful smile. Too bad the food doesn't match the small town friendly atmosphere of the place. We all thought our food was pretty "meh". My daughter's French dip sandwich came with a very watery dipping sauce. My Escalon Burger was OK, but really lacked seasoning. The complimentary scoops of ice cream at the end of our meal was a nice touch. Decent place, I pass through Escalon a lot so probably will be back, but the food is rather underwhelming. read more

Hands down the best club sandwich I have ever had. super tasty with very fresh ingredients.

My friend goes here a lot so she took me here. The burgers looked delicious but I wasn't a huge fan of the club sandwich I got. 4 stars are due to the service. It took 30 min to pay our bill -- but looks like it was due to a shortage of workers that day due to the high school graduation. read more

This dinner is great. The burger was hot and juicy. All food is made to order, no heat lamps here. The service was friendly, and fast. They even give a small ice cream with you order. We will definitely be back and would highly recommend you come by!!!! read more

You guys totally rock love the burgers and the food ... I had a messed up order and they fixed it they went above and beyond!!!! I appreciate their professionalism. The Staff and the Owner Tony are wonderful. Thanks Hulas for amazing food and such friendly staff.. Will be back for sure. Best burgers and shakes in town!!!! read more

I was extremely shocked at how awesome this place was. Yeah, I'm a picky burger eater. I was hungry and stopped with my brother and my puppy, Milo. As soon as we sat down, a server brought a bowl of cold water to Milo. How awesome is that!? Then shes asks if my puppy would like a snack then brought over a cookie. The food? I had a burger, fries and Coke. The burger was excellent! Juicy with 3 slices of tomato, 2 full slices of red onion, 7 pickle slices and lettuce. It was so good. The fries were.....ok. The Coke was served in a huge plastic tumbler. (No straws needed! Save the whales) Then.... they offered a free ice cream to patrons. What??? We had a fantastic lunch. Thank you. And everyone please tip the staff well. read more

Definitely left here disappointed tonight and will never be returning. Our food was ok but we encountered major issues with our bill that the staff was not willing to rectify what so ever. Two of us ordered the Linguicia sandwich with Hula fries that was CLEARLY advertised on the menu for $11.99. We don't have no upgrades or substitutions, just ordered as is on the menu. On our bill they charged us $13.99. My husband pointed this out to the staff who immediately blamed the manager stating that he had raised the price from $11.99 to $13.99 but refuses to change the menu even though they keep telling him. The issue we had is that 1.) we should have been told this PRIOR to ordering not when we got the bill after the fact 2.) they were not willing to adjust our bill to reflect the advertised price since it was not our fault. They had multiple opportunities to do the right thing. Granted it's only $4 but it's terrible business practice and customer service. After outright refusing to adjust the bill to the advertised price we paid so we could just leave. Then we asked to split the bill 2 ways. The cashier then rang us up and charged us for someone else's whole bill. My husband had to tell him it was another parties bill so he had to void it and then my husband had to figure out the math for him to split in half. It was totally wild. We couldn't get out of there fast enough. You lost 2 sets of customers tonight over $4 because of your lack of updating your menu and the wait staff communicating with customers. At the very least if you can't get new menus then black out the current listed price and let people know there was a price change. read more

Thank you Larissa! This was the first time my wife and I have been to Hula's and the food was so good! That said even better than the food was or waitress Larissa! We had a complicated order with an even more complicated order to go. She didn't write anything down and everything came out perfect! She made sure we had everything we needed at all times. Seriously might be the best waitress we have ever had! This place is a must try! read more

I'm not sure this place could get 5 stars from me, but I've only been here once. The place is usually packed and I don't visit Escalon that often, unless I'm there for pizza. I wasn't sure but they have a fair amount of indoor seating, along with the seating out front. It wasn't exactly warm but it wasn't bad. There are some hard booths to one side and tables with padded benches on the other. The server was friendly and so enthusiastic. They apparently serve Coca-Cola products, as she mentioned Sprite for my question about Mountain Dew. They have smoothies and milk shakes also. I decided to order the Coconut Fried Shrimp and Fries. I'd been thinking about fried shrimp the other day and didn't find any, until this place. It didn't take long and everything looked amazing, but the 8 medium shrimp seemed more of a snack, even with the fries, than a meal. I loved the crispiness but the taste didn't seem enough, no matter that I liked it. The texture of the shrimp's coating was more than the taste. Hopefully, I'll find something that I like even better when I return. read more

Three great options to enjoy food here! They have a drive thru window, outdoor seating and indoor seating. The food is truly homemade and has delicious flavor. Breakfast is traditional and delightfully delicious! They even give you a small scoop of soft serve ice cream to finish off the meal. A must try if you are passing through or live in town. read more

First time in; drove from Modesto to try the burgers and Tri-tip Nacho Fries. When a got there it wasn't terribly busy, a few tables occupied. I waited at the front window to place an order and stood for several minutes. I was a bit agitated at this point because I made eye contact with a few of the staff and no one greeted me or asked to take my order. No one acknowledged me, so I went inside and asked if I should seat myself. One of the waitresses said, yes. I sat and waited for several minutes and finally someone came and took my order. After my food arrived I was satisfied and everything tasted great. A good burger and fries with mounds of meat and cheesy goodness. I was waiting for my bill, so I decided to go to the front to pay and also wanted to order a milkshake to go. My waitress told me the amount, I handed my card, she handed me the bill, and walked away to continue working. To my surprise my bill was paid, except for the shake. I was confused, so I asked another waitress if my bill was correct. She said yes, and that my waitress paid for my meal. I asked her why? She said she just does that sometimes. Wow?! Well I certainly could not let that stand, so I tipped her the amount of my bill she paid plus extra. When she took the bill to ring up she noticed the tip and glanced over with a big smile, I winked and walked out. Great customer service deserves a great response. That is special, friendly service from someone who works hard to make a customer satisfied. That my foodies is above and beyond service! Even if they're having a bad day; TIP YOUR SERVERS PEOPLE!!!!! read more

Always my favorite place! Especially since they give you a complimentary little ice cream at the end of your meal if you dine in!!

Got takeout from this place this past Saturday for the first time and it was really disappointing. Im not sure when the phrase "best burgers in the valley" on the giant sign out front was coined but what we got was maybe one small step up from a fast food burger. The place was packed and super dirty everywhere. I have never seen so many flies in my life it was actually off putting. The staff never once cleaned an outside table after someone left which seemed gross and unsanitary given the current state of the world. For some reason it took 20 minutes for 2 burgers and fries to go but we grabbed them and took them to a nearby park to eat. I ordered/paid for garlic fries and got regular fries instead. They were soggy and inedible. My wife got onion rings and they were pretty ok. I mean this place isn't terrible but for $35.00 for two burgers, two sides & a root beer float I'd expect something halfway decent read more

Just finished eating at Hula's. The place is cute reminds me of old school 50's dinner mixed with Hawaiian flare. We had Mike as our server. He was so personable that my boyfriend & I thought he was the owner of the restaurant. To our surprise he is not, but he should be!! We got the filet kabobs & the big kahuna burger which both was mediocre only because we asked for rare & they came out well done (not mikes fault at all he didn't cook it!) so that's why only the 4 stars. However Mike was so cool we are definitely willing to come back & give the food another shot! read more

Hula's - Escalón memorabilia on the walls - American Near Me - Escalon, California

Fun atmosphere, great food, and good people! Its a little more pricey than Burger King but way better. It's a popular place for locals!

Hula's seduced me with its signs for "greatest burgers ever" on my drive from Yosemite back to San Francisco. See, I had my heart set on In 'N Out, but after a grueling drive and flight over Yosemite in Jamestown (oh yeah), I didn't have the 30 minute patience required. I also rationalized and said: "okay, you can always try In 'n Out" and did a U-turn after looking up Hula's yelp reviews at a traffic light and ordered the amazing Knockout Burger. I paid an extra $1 for more meat because I was ravenously hungry. Not more than 10 minutes later, my burger was brought to me with some fries. Hula's has both indoor and outdoor seating and you order up at the counter. I chose to sit indoors in the AC since wasps were stalking some folks outside (and I'm a total scaredy cat when it comes to those stinging insects). The burger was incredible! The bun, amazingly ripe avocado and the meat cooked to medium; along with jalapenos it was so damn fulfilling. I stuffed myself finishing up the fries and the staff brought me a little surprise of ice cream with my bill! That was so sweet, unexpected and earned them that 5th star. Definitely don't hesitate to stop in here for an incredible burger. The staff is so sweet and the food is fantastic! read more

Great outdoor eating area, good service, tasty burgers and lots of options for kids! Great family lunch spot.

This place is so under rated! We were looking for a spot to eat and found one. It's unassuming and looks like it might not be good, but don't judge this book by its cover, it's good, cheap and the people are super small town nice. And you might get a little sample of free ice cream at the end. Burgers are great. I had a basic cheese burger and it came with fries. Less than 10$ plus a beer. I drank Torpedo by Sierra Nevada read more
