First time going to Hula' s. My Girlfriend and I found it to be very cozy and very welcoming. They have seatting outside and inside. The service was great and friendly. The food was really great as well. For how busy it was near lunchtime. I was really surprised how fast they we able to make everything. Garlic fries we awesome! When we got the bill they also gave us a small cup of ice cream. Ice cream was great and I wished I had more room for ice cream. But I was full from my meal. I'll get some ice cream next time though. We will be going back to Hulas again soon. Thank you everyone at Hulas read more

Great burgers. Get them with jalapenos!

Burger and shake drive up. Big selection menu of burgers, sandwiches, fried food, and shakes. Very friendly staff and a small ice cream after each meal. Definitely a place to stop on the way home from Yosemite. read more

First time here, garlic fries are awesome, service is great, will definitely be back for breakfast next time!!!

Dog & people friendly... They brought our dog a bacon-wrapped treat and served the humans complimentary homemade ice cream after our meal. Food and Service were spot on!!! read more

Daughter loves their burgers here. yes, the burgers were worth the longer wait. We always save our tummies for hula's on the way home. She had guacamole burger with fries. The lettuce were not shredded like at other fast food place and they had all the goodies fresh and tasty. I had onion rings and salad...daughter also ate the chipotle burger as well.onion rings were fried to perfection Their portions are huge. We didn't eat dinner afterward.... Haha, I now know now to pronounce chipotle... read more

Food was great service was awesome ... kinda of a little whole in the wall but I'm glad I took a chance will definitely be back again

Really good food!!! Garlic fries are really tasty!! This place is amazing. I've eaten there twice and both burgers were awesome!!!

I was charged an 8% surcharge on my food that I was NOT told of when I ordered it. Is this even legal????

Have eaten several times. A gem. Great burgers. Sports motif inside Just great!!!!!! Fresh fries. Like a 60's Modesto place to pull your car up. Ice cream at end is a nice touch. read more

Tasty fresh made big burger with grilled pineapple. Great old school style Oreo milkshake was refreshing. 1st time here just passing thru town. Will eat here again but took a while to get our food. Shakes arrived quick so we had those to sip on.. read more

Great burgers & service!! You got to try it out!! You will not be disappointed. Definitely will keep coming back for more :-)

I'm quite surprised at the low reviews! I've been here probably 3-4 times now, going there every so often when we are driving through Escalon (what else would you be doing there?) I will agree there is no "system" that they have, but after you've been here once you know to just sit down with a menu. Now up until yesterday, I probably would've given this place 5 stars because of how good it has been. I need to start remembering names, but the burger I got had pinneapple on it, and my BF got the bacon cheeseburger. Both were DELICIOUS! And of course we can't come here without getting a milkshake. Equally delicious! The problems I had yesterday were with the garlic fries & the heat. The garlic fries were cold and incredibly greasy. I've had these before, and they aren't usually this bad. But I couldn't eat them. Yes, it was very hot outside..but inside should not be equally as hot. That's great that you have a big ass standing fan, but you're just blowing more hot air into my face. They have had consistantly tasty burgers, so I will have to go off that. read more

I have driven by this place hundreds of times, and finally stopped by on my way back to the Bay Area from Pinecrest. Service was friendly and efficient. Menu choices were plentiful (burgers are the focus of their menu) and there were vegitarian choices which made one person in our group very happy. We sat outside on a Sunday afternoon. Traffic whizzes by and the flies were around, but that didn't detract from a nice lunch. Hula's is now on our list of places (along with Shively's)to eat when heading to or from the high Sierras. read more

This was the worst service/ cleanliness place I have been to! We started off ordering in the drive thru, we had never been here before, and the girl taking our order was very rushed. When we got to the window we paid for the order, and waited for the order to be ready. The girl working behind the drive thru HAILEY, proceeded to hand us our straws, that were not wrapped with her bare hands! Not only that she didn't wash them nor did she have a glove on! I asked for a wrapped straw or if she could please wash her hands and get us new straws. She rolled her eyes and went to do so. We got new straws, and then while still waited I watched HAILEY GRAB HER MASK AND TAKE A DRINK FROM HER PERSONAL BEVERAGE WHILE HOLDING THE STRAW AND WITH NO REGARD FOR SANITIZATION OR CROSS CONTAMINATION OR COVID SHE PLACES HER DRINK BACK UP ON THE ICE CREAM MACHINE AREA NEXT TO THE SYRUPS! Long story short I was so disgusted we decided to get a refund and not even eat there! Save your money! This is exactly why covid is spreading people! Don't eat here! read more

Their all around food is good, but I think there breakfast is better,but I'm a breakfast guy type of person if you don't want breakfast at night get other food it's good to. read more

This is our family go to spot along the way to the mountains. Consistently great service, and kids love the ice cream at the end. Taco salad is great as well as the skewers. read more

So, this is my second time here and I will be back. I love a good burger and they have just that. It's a perfect stop for me on the way to or more likely the way back from backpacking in Yosemite. They have many burgers to chose from but I've had a burger w/ Avocado, Jack cheese, Bacon and Jalapeños both times and both times it was the bomb. They also sever breakfast all day which is awesome and I would have given it 5 stars but feel like I should taste more of the food first. The service is friendly and the food came out pretty quick. But one of the hidden gems is that you get a free mini ice cream with your meal. Gotta love that touch. read more

I had the "knockout" burger. It was very good albeit too big to finish. The onion rings were excellent. Good service. And the complimentary ice cream for desert was really good. read more

Finally went here for a late lunch to try their burgers. Had the pineapple teriyaki burger with sweet potato fries. Burger was huge and very good, sweet potato fries were crispy and hot. Owner was there and was very friendly. Clean and safe place to go right off the highway and they have a drive thru where you can call in before pick up. Came with a complementary soft serve which hit the spot because I would have exploded if I had anymore food. My husband had garlic fries which were good as well. I would recommend to at least try the place as prices are reasonable for what you get. Will be going back for sure! read more

Used to come here frequently. Probably won't return after the prices raised to what I would consider it no longer worth it. Food is good though. (Just paid $50 for a hamburger, a grilled cheese, and kids chicken strips, and 3 medium milk shakes- when I asked at the window why.. they informed me that prices went up 5% a week and a half ago). I always try to support small businesses but it becomes hard when prices raise. Boo. read more

This was my husband and my first visit. I was charmed with the atmosphere but the drawback was no handicapped seating out front or inside. My husband is in a wheelchair so he had to lean in from the side table. Luckily the place wasn't busy The service was warm and friendly I enjoyed all the menu choices, my husband had garlic fries and garlic burger. The fries weren't crispy which I didn't care for I had fried zucchini which was very crispy and a good portion and their ice cream with real Oreos which was delicious We want to go back but may have to carry out since there isn't seating for a wheelchair read more

Just moved to escalon and was looking for a good authentic home made burger and was told hulas by a few people i went and tried tonight and wasnt empressed at all frozen burgers cold soggy fries and honestly the most bland burger i have had in a long while also over priced for there breakfast a read more

Filthy, poor service, and food made me sick. The baby chairs were crusted with food and sticky. Once I lysol wiped the chair and the table, I began to notice more filth. There is memorabilia everywhere which is fine, if you can keep it clean. Didn't dare do the finger test anywhere in this place. I could visibly see dust and grime everywhere. Didn't even want to take my chances with the bathroom so my 3yr old and I just "held it." Service was terrible. People seemed unintelligent and lazy. Couldn't get anything we asked for. I had to get up 3x and track down a server for what we needed. Our food took a long time to come. The food was good even though in the back of my mind I was trying to ignore the fact that we were sitting in a cesspool of germs and filth. We ate, paid, and left. Felt like I needed a shower after being there. Sure enough.... Sick as a dog since being home. read more

First time here at Hula's. The place is pretty average sized. It looks like a small hut or house in a parking lot. There's an indoor and outdoor seating. Indoor is just like a dine-in restaurant where you order from a menu and the waitress caters. Outdoor is just like a fast food restaurant. Kind of reminds me of Zippy's from Hawaii. Considering it was my first time, I ordered a Hula Burger which comes with fries or salad and a complimentary ice cream (What?!). The waitress(es) are very kind and attractive ;p And the service is pretty good. No problems ordering or waiting or nothing like that The food came out rather quickly and was made fresh. The burger and fries is probably one of the best I've had in a while to be honest. ...and as I was looking through the menus, I couldn't help but notice that they serve beer. I might have to bring a couple of friends here to just have a beer and eat. I'd definitely stop by here again. Sorry for not taking a picture, I wasn't really thinking when I posted the review. read more

Hubby and I have driven past Hulas from Oakdale for years and regret not stopping here earlier. Today we finally stopped! Ordered the teriyaki burger and sweet potato fries which were finger licking good. The COLD Sierra Nevada made this meals ending memorable. I ordered a milkshake, it was "eh". I may have been expecting an In and Out milkshake but that may be a whole new set of milkshake standards in itself. Overall we rate this little burger and everything else stop a 4 of 5. Excellent customer service in which we are big on and for preserving the classic tasting wholesome American meal that so many fast foods do not have a clue on. read more

We aren't sure what expect, but the Yelp reviews and pics peeked our interest enough to stop in on our way to Yosemite. Oh man!!! Am I glad we did! The girls working there were so hospitable and kind. We felt right at home. The burgers and fries were some of the best we've ever had. Then the bill came with little frozen yogurt cups! Wha?!?! Oh yeah, we split the Knock Out burger with garlic fries! For the service and food, the value was unbeatable! read more

Seriously the best hamburger I have ever had! And the choices for all sorts of different things is also quite impressive. If I am ever passing through Escalon and am hungry, I will stop here hands down! read more

We stop here for lunch after our camping trip once a year and it's always good! The servings are plentiful and tasty. Can't wait for a pineapple burger. Yum! read more

The drive through sucks! I waited in the drive through for 30 minutes. Waiting at the speaker for 7 minutes and no one came on to take my order. I pulled around to the window and there were two cars in front of me. Finally got to the window to order after another 10 minutes. Once I ordered it was another 15 minutes or so until I got my food. I would say call and order over the phone but the last time I tried that they hung up on me twice because they couldn't hear me. I tried calling from my work phone and my cell phone. Maybe they need to invest in a better drive through ordering system and phone system?!?!? Foods ok. I ordered a BLT and they put onion on it! Who puts onion on their BLT's?? I will say the strawberry shake was good! read more

Great food! Very reasonably priced! Indoor and out door seating and to top it off it has a drive thru! This place is very cute inside and out. The staff is extremely friendly and helped us order based on our tastes .. this was our first time here and this time will not be out last! Hulas is a little diamond in the rough read more

I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a delicious meal and awesome milkshakes! My favorite is the chocolate/coffee shake. Just avoid visiting when the old lady is working. She's always super rude to me. She clearly has issues. Everyone else is awesome(: read more
