Sizing up and weighing the patties!
Ron R.

This was by far one of the best tasting burgers I've had on the island! So let me get straight to it.... HI Burger is located on the bottom floor of an open building with other food vendors. So expect street parking. Luckily, it's the first food vendor you'll see. And within the eatery area, there are patio table for everyone. So don't expect fine dining. MY ORDER: #12 Onion Rings ($9.50): Well breaded and crunchy! It also came with a spicy catsup which adds a good tingle to your tongue. Shareable! #11 Chili Cheese Fries ($10): Whenever I see chili cheese fries (ccf) on the menu, I jump at the opportunity. And I don't care what others think, but my baseline comparison is with Tommy's Chili Cheese Fries, in which I love! However, HI Burger's ccf is way different imo. They use real chili with no beans, YES! Beefy chili too! The fries were home-style crunchy and went perfect together. I'd definitely order these again. #1 The Basil Pesto Burger ($19.50): Oh man, WORTH IT!!! The bun was toasted and soft. The patty was thick, nice and fatty and juicy. Add that melted swiss cheese, tomato, aioli, and the piles of that basil pesto. MMM MMM this burger was an unexpected surprise! Loved it! SERVICE: Welcoming and pleasant, no issues. Place your order, they give you a pager. Pick it up, or they call you, or I've seen them drop off your order at your table. VISIT THEM and try these please: I gotta try that Kahuku Shrimp burger, or their hot chicken, or their Kalua Pork sando. They all just looked hella good! Man, I tell ya, just staring at the menu board was a hard decision. Therefore I just went with #1. Their specialty drinks also looked like they were worth trying as well. So please, try everything for me and let me know what you think.

Cheeseburger add tomato

Small burger place but the best burgers, fresh and local owner.wait my be a few min , everything made to order!

So friendly and awesome service! Eatery has table and bench chairs to share with others and open space. The burgers are so tempting to order all but next time. We had the basil pesto and arugula burger, onion rings and French fries. So so good and so yummy!

Garlic fries & double 6. Cheeseburger
Dorothy D.

Food: A. Excellent grub for when you're in the mood for an exceptional burger. I LOVE the unique combinations of burger options you have here. The loaded fries options are diverse as well even though we went just for the garlic ones - they did not disappoint! Service: B. Pretty good! At the beginning they were there on point ready to take our order. Later one, trying to find someone at the front to help was time-consuming. Ambiance: B. A cute burger spot with optional outside seating for fresh air. Imagine a typical burger stand with Hawaiian flair! Dietitian Dorothy's Pro Nutrition Tip: Definitely recommend splitting a burger (and fries if you can't resist) but also side it with a salad to share. With all of this high-caloric munchies, you balance your meal out with low-calorie fresh produce salad. You can make it a burger salad!

Classic cheeseburger and fries! Loved every bite!
Harriet T.

Many different burgers are on their menu; I kept it simple with a classic cheeseburger. They cook to order - nothing is pre-cooked and you can tell! It is so very good! The fries were great - more than I could eat. I loved everything, and the service was very good, too!

Pineapple Burger
Jaynar S.

Wow! So good we came back and ordered the Pineapple Burger; so juicy and flavorful! We also enjoyed the Arugula Burger and the Chilli Fries. The owners are so friendly and hard working. Located next to the Oasis Hotel. Parking can be tight, but easy walking from the tourist areas. The interior seating is shared with other restaurants. You'll pay a little more for quality, however this is definitely the best burger in Waikiki! I highly recommend.

My wife and I stopped by HI Burger today, and we're already looking forward to coming back! We had the Classic Burger and the Cheeseburger - both were fresh, juicy, and cooked perfectly. Simple ingredients done really well. Friendly service, great food, and definitely worth a stop if you're in Waikīkī. Mahalo!

We stopped in for a quick lunch. We ordered cheeseburgers. They were delicious and full of flavor and very juicy. They have a limited seating area. Service was friendly, it took about 15 minutes to get a burger, but these are thick burgers and definitely worth the wait!

Man, the first time I tried their burger, was so good. Wife and I had shared a burger the first time as she had gotten it from her coworker. Oh my gosh, that first time was so good, the burger had so much flavor. So we said, omg we gotta go back ourselves and check em out. Boom, we ended up visiting on Sunday night, 8/10. HI burger located on Lewers street. It's a one way, so u gotta enter from Kalakaua. We decided to do take out, so we ended up just pulling up right out front. Looks like it's only based on street parking. So, it was a little cute food hall. There were 4, 5 other places to eat inside. I never even knew this place existed lol. Lady was nice. I ordered cheeseburger and onion rings, and the wife got a classic, onion rings, and a coconut milk coffee. Wrong move, don't drink coffee at night if you going have to end up sleeping. Lol food is made to order, which is awesome, you know it's fresh. Waited a good 10 minutes ish maybe. Took out our food, drove out to Queens beach side, looked for street parking to meet the sister, we planned to stay out cuz the wife was going metal detecting. So we pigged out in our car, lol. The burger was just as it was from the first time, juicy, flavorful, so good. I really liked the onion rings, it was so good, crispy, don't fall apart. Wife said she like jack in the box onion rings better. To me, tasted the same, the crispyness, but I think this one has a seasoning, more flavor, but I love Jack in the box onion rings too. So fulfilling. I normally don't finish such a big meal like that. It was so good, I smashed everything. Oh the total for our order was $67. Very pricey, fyi, but it is what it is. When I got to the last couple bites of my burger tho, started to have like a hint of old burger taste. I don't know, maybe I was hungry that I didn't make a big deal out of it and just smashed everything, but it did start to have a hint of old burger taste in my last couple bites. Lol But I still finished it, and was still good. Would we go back again? Yes, maybe not make our way there and plan it, maybe spontaneously or randomly. Go check them out, but make sure you check out the prices first.

ワイキキの町の外れにあるお店です。 駐車場ないので注意が必要です。 美味しいですが、かなり高いです。 ロケーション価格なのでしょうか? 日本のテレビ紹介のお店になります。

Best bacon cheese burger I've had on the island. Service was great. It was some outside seating lil bugs humbled me. I wasn't sharing my burger. Every burger is made to order fresh hot off the grill. Sooooo good.

Walking around town trying to find something to eat. Tried out this spot. But damn this was the best burger I have ever had. The meat so well seasoned and tender as hell. The buns my lord like pillows of heaven. The furikake butter will satisfy the needs of your pallet. 5 STARS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! Mahalozzz from Orange County!!!

Tiffany N.

Bruh. This place knows what they're doing! So much so that I didn't even get a burger, I got the Kahlua Pork Sandwich with fries, almost no survivors from my meal. The pork sandwich was stacked with pork and red slaw and both were full of flavor! I never wanted it to end and I will stand by my decision that it hit the spot more than a burger. Even on a sleepy afternoon, they didn't slack and put love and flavor into their food. Indoor and outdoor seating. Shakira talked about the hips don't lie? Well the smells from HI Burger don't lie either, they lure you in like sirens but are a lot nicer to you!

Where is parking located?

Street parking, but good luck. :) I'd suggest that you park in a nearby garage and walk to it. It's not seen from the street-it's tucked into an area with several little stalls and they are on one of the ends. I walked from my hotel there. It's…

We ended up sharing the taste of Tiki's, which consisted of the following (as of July 2026) - Coconut Shrimp - Pretty good and consistent across all pieces. Prime Rib Poke - First time I've had this "poke" style and it was delicious. It can be treated as a salad as well. The beef was very tender and flavorful. Pulehu New York Steak - Loved how they sliced this for us. It came with some sides of veggies/potatoes and such as well. Pretty good! Macadamia Nut Crusted Fish - I didn't really enjoy this one as much since it was dry in my opinion, but others at the table liked it. It got finished. It had some very tasty root veggies and sauce though. Pineapple Crème Brûlée - So good! Crème brûlée with pineapple inside a pineapple. We also got some drinks. I got my ube cocktail. So good. Some others got tiki drinks and it came with the tiki mug for them to take home. So cool. Great vibes all around. We had an amazing night here.

He really stood out. As for the burgers we got two #8s with two sides of small fries and we did a good job getting the small sides because the fries are pretty thick. The burger itself was pretty good but very very messy because of all the sauce which is not a bad thing! Just be sure to pack some wet wipes in your bags but if not you need to ask for the key to the restroom upstairs to wash. The fries are well seasoned with salt and pepper but nothing else. One thing I didn't really like is that they charge 50 cents for ranch and you can hear them squeezing the bottle of ranch into a little container, it tasted very similar to hidden valley so it might be that. Normally i feel like places charge for ranch when it is house made and actually good.

Anyway, I order the food and it takes much, much longer than anticipated. I'll say that the pricing was pretty average for the food, especially here on island. Anyway, I ordered a 'shroom and guac burger and a bacon cheeseburger. The burgers were both cooked well done (which is not my favorite, but it's fine) but it caused the meat to bite a little tough. Additionally, we order fries with our order that were thick cut, but overly salted. They were also not fresh and were a little soggy upon eating them. The flavor of the two burgers was fine, again, aside from the patty being well done. There is a sauce on it, but thankfully not drenched, which I can appreciate. The pickles on both burgers were also pretty good. Anyway, this place was just... okay. Did I hate it? No, but would I go back? Probably not.
