    Good place if you are in the mood for a yummy burger. We tried their double with avocado. It was excellent Their fries are just-right crispy and the serving was huge. The potion was enough to share with a friend. Staff were friendly. We did carry-out this time and the food was done on time and hot. ... . Facility is casual, clean, island size. Handy location if you are shopping in downtown Kailua. Street parking .

    Mushroom Swiss Burger and French Fries
    Sadie N.

    Such a great burger spot!! The fries are gorgeously crispy and delicious, while the burger is flavorful and fulfilling. Just felt that the burger was quite messy, but was likely just the cheese and sauces topping the mushroom burger. Preselected menu but the menu has enough options to fill anyone's classic cravings/likings for a burger. Servers were nice and insightful. Location had a variety of different seating options, but can be a bit small since lots of parties can be waiting around for their food to come out fresh.

    Mahaloha Burger always hits the spot. Their burgers are cooked to perfection (your temperature preference), super juicy, big and delicious. The pineapple teriyaki burger is hands down my favorite. The garlic fries and truffle fries are also a must try! Hot dogs are on the menu as well for those who don't feel like a burger. They have regular fountain sodas, water and beers on tap as well. You can dine inside upstairs or outside on the patio.

    Came here after beaching. Located just across the corner from Target. Small shop, with a few tables outside, 2 high chair tables on the main floor, & a good about of seating upstairs. We got the loco moco burger with garlic fries, & double cheese burger with truffle fries. Both were so yummy! Burger was cooked perfectly with some pink (but if you like yours well done, let them know). The only thing I would've done differently is request for the egg on the loco moco to be an over easy/runny yolk egg. The fries can prob be shared between 2 people, but they're so good... crispy but not over fried. Would def come again & try other burgers/sandwiches/sides on the menu.

    100% DELISH!!! After a super fun excursion in the area, we popped over to Mahaloha Burger in Kailua and had the yummiest lunch. I had the Loco Moco burger, and my husband has the BBQ burger. We loved it! We upgraded to the combos which came with fries and a soda. The fries were perfectly crispy and yummy too! The restaurant is super clean, and the staff is awesome!

    Fries and Mahi san

    Stopped in twice on my last trip to Oahu. I was in Kaneohe but it was worth the drive. Staff was friendly and helpful. Mahi san was the best. Very moist. A little messy, perfect. I highly recommend.

    Avocado Swiss burger
    Ramiro H.

    Haven't had a burger in a while so I researched local spots to ensure I wasn't disappointed and I'm so glad I didn't settle. The burgers were filling and very tasty. Fresh avocado and cheese with lettuce, pickles, tomatoes and sauce. The bacon bbq burger was full of favor too. The burgers were not overcooked, medium rare was perfect! The best part was they weren't nearly as expensive as I'd expect for Kailua area. Excellent value and great taste have made this my new "go to" spot for burgers.

    Craving a burger!?!? THIS is definitely the place to satisfy your cravings! Thanks to watching a lot of foodie videos on YouTube lately, I was craving a burger so I googled "Burger places near Kailua Target" and this gem popped up and I'm forever thankful! LOL! Located near Kailua Target, You'll find this establishment across the street on a corner location near the parking lot entrance. Note the parking is behind Mahaloha Burger. Although very small space, they have some outdoor seating, a couple tables near the register/counter, and an upstairs seating area. Made use of their space very well! Establishment was very clean despite how super busy they got as we came on a weekday during lunch time. We were also welcomed upon entry. The cashier was very nice and quick with her work as she was the only one working the front counter and the kitchen staff getting all the orders cooked in the back. When we got there, there were 5 parties waiting for their orders with 3 more parties in line behind us by the time we got to place our order. We received our food within 20 minutes. Ordering 2 combos: 1 signature double cheeseburger, 1 BBQ Bacon Burger, Garlic Fries, and Onion Rings. Although size in burgers may not be the biggest for the price they cost, the quality of the food is 110% worth it. Their garlic fries are probably one of the best we've ever had. Fresh CRISPY garlic fries without any mushy texture or oiliness you may get at other places. Their burgers, with each bite you were able to taste every ingredient unlike other burgers sometimes you'll get a pickle here or sauce there. Their burgers were also well put together and did not fall apart as you took bites into it. The burger patty itself was flavorful and juicy. Definitely coming back again! And that's a lot to say as we're a small family living on the west side of the island!

    Onion rings with Happy sauce
    Kristopher K.

    Service was friendly and awesome. They now have happy hour so go your 5.00 drinks on! Burgers were cooked perfect, cheese melted on like a champ, and fries were on point. Winner in our book

The ordering counter and cashier is right as you enter along with thr pastry counter. Same deals with thr kapolei location you order and find your own table and put number so they can find you when your order is up. Inside is airconditioned with around maybe 10 tables and chairs some seat 2 others eat 4 and they also have outside patio seating back and front. The parking can be challenging having maybe 10 -12 spots in their lot and some street parking . Their Menu is a bit more limited than their other location. Sandwiches.. pizza and other stuff oh and coffee. The only thing that wasmt as good as their kapolei location was they didnt have the thin crispy salty cravable fries they only had small bags of chips available The food is always good and the service was real good. The staff gave you an impression where they really valued their customers with greetings with a smile and happy goodbyes. As always a great experience with a great casual setting..fair pricing (nothing is considered "cheap" nowdays) ..good food and friendly staff.

Water is self-serve, and the setup feels more like a cafeteria than a traditional sit-down restaurant. That said, the staff has always been friendly and welcoming, which makes for a pleasant experience. I usually order the chicken pesto sandwich, which is always a great choice, but today I decided to branch out and try the Beach Burger and the Margherita Pizza. Both were absolutely delicious and definitely worth ordering again. The atmosphere is one of my favorite parts. It has a relaxed, coastal vibe that makes you feel like you're dining at a beachfront café, even if you're not right on the sand. Overall, it's a great spot for good food, a laid-back environment, and friendly service. I'll definitely keep coming back.

The one way in is also pretty tight to turn in to. I swear it looked like it had a drive through but you can actually call in your order, and drive up to the window and pickup your food. Preorders only! They do not have order at the window! It was very warm in there, and because there was a fan on, I assume the ac not working? Hope they get that fixed soon. I ordered a fatty brisket plate, the wife ordered the fatty brisket and lamb chop combo, and my father in law ordered the pulehu shortrib plate. For the price of the plates with the briskets, was either too pricey for the serving, or they coulda add more for the price. The pulehu serving, we all agreed is worth the price. The did hook us up with some fatty pieces tho. You should ask, unless you like lean lol (ain't nothing lean on this side lol) the wife expressed how she really liked the lamb. She likes her lamb chops, and she normally loves them from Texas de Brazil, but she said the lamb chop here was better, which I find surprising! So for all you lamb chop lovahz, go check em out guys. So back to my brisket plate, was good. It was filling, but I just think that for the price, should add more serving. Normally plate lunch come with 2 scoop rice, only had 1 scoop rice. Could use one more. Had Mac, but I didn't like it. And then came with like a small side scoop of pickled onions and cabbage, and a choice of bbq sauce on the side. Customer service was great. They was all nice. The best part was their cooler of desserts!!! Omg... I spocked the brownie mochi poke and I just had to. We tried it right there, and mannnnn that was so bomb. Was pretty pricey, $10+ each for those small size containers, but it was sooooooo good!!! Would we come here again? Yeah probably if we craving Texas bbq.
