Islands was a good move for our group during a basketball tournament, and Chloe was the MVP. With a big team and families, things can get hectic, but Chloe took charge. She got the kids seated, helped keep the checks organized, and made sure things moved in a way that worked for both kids and adults. There were a couple of small missteps with food items, but overall they handled the group well. I ordered the Chinese chicken salad and really enjoyed it. Others got burgers and fries, and everyone left satisfied. Good experience overall 4 Stars read more

Maybe I'm lucky, but I've been to this Islands at least 4 times and it's been a great experience every time. We just moved into the area and we were ecstatic that there's an Islands nearby. The one in our previous city closed down. They have a cheerful and helpful host, attentive servers, and always great food. Granted I order the same thing every time (I like what I like), a hula burger with fries. My wife gets a veggie burger with a salad and she loves it. If possible, try to get a seat on the west side of the restaurant, kind of a cool view! read more

Staff were friendly! The order came fast UNFORTUNATELY it was not accurate. My friend has an allergic reaction to pickles, he told the waitress about it but the kitchen overlooked the request. We did not send the food back ONLY because we have limited time for lunch. The rambiance here is always lively with great music playing in the background. read more

We love stopping here to get happy hour and enjoy great food. The drinks are good and the food is better. We always get the BLT. This time shared the tiki tenders. The service here was good and they were training a new person which will be a great help. The inside is always nice and well set up. If you're looking for a great place to stop and you have to try this one. read more

The service is always so quick here. They are always on top of drink refills which I LOVE. Food is always spot on. We love their nachos, sliders, and of course their French fries! Their secret seasoning is my absolute favorite. I need it at home. We always sit outside and it's always clean and they also have tv's outside if you want to see the game. The patio is pet friendly so we love seeing that the employees give them a little bowl of water. Recently I got the Kalua pork tacos. Super tender meat, delicious salsa verde (it has a good kick but not bad at all), crispy cabbage and the prettiest pieces of avocados. The tortilla is thick and delicious! read more

We were 6 adults & 6 children. The children were playing outside while waiting to get their shakes, before their dinner came. One munchkin spilled his shake. Chris; our waiter came to the rescue with another shake. Islands' & brought all of us Island's fries; which are the best fries ever. The adults got their dinners' while some of us chips & salsa while the grandparents had salads-cobb & chinese chicken salad-which are the best. The other adults had wraps, etc. Between Chris; our waiter & the manager-our dinner was enjoyed by everyone. Can't Wait to come Back!! read more

As always, Islands delivers the goods! I had a Hawaiian burger (pineapple, teriyaki etc) wifey had the beach bowl. We both thoroughly enjoyed the times. Hot, fresh, quality ingredients, and a friendly smile from our waiter Chris. He is one of their best here, try to find this dude! The music and vibe is always cool in Islands, and this time was no exception. Heck, we even watched spring training baseball! Come on down to this spot if you are nearby, I guarantee a good time with good food. No photos, we are so quickly then realized I did not prep correctly for this review. read more

Came for dinner with my girlfriend and her son, he asked for islands specifically. We walked in and were greeted and seated immediately. Menus on the table so we opened them up and started perusing them. Our server came by and took drink orders while we decided what to eat. She returned with our drinks and took our meal orders. Food came out quickly and tasted good. Everything was hot and fresh. Our server noticed when our drinks were about halfway to empty and brought refills without us having to ask. Prices and ambiance are in line with fast casual restaurants. Cool surfing decor including tables painted to look like surfboards. We will return. read more

Food was decent. About what you would expect for a spot like this. I didn't like that I had to ask for things multiple times. I asked for ranch after ordering the food. Then I asked when the food arrived. About 10 minutes later when the server came to check on us I asked again and finally got it a few minutes later. I also asked for wet wipes and had to remind the server a couple of times until she brought us some read more

There aren't as many Islands left. We happen to be in Yorba Linda and my son received a certificate for a Free kids meal so why not use it on the way home? There were plenty of parking. The restaurant was half full. We were seated right away. Everyone works together to give great service. Chris was our waiter and he was excellent! My son's meal was free. I got the Kilauae burger but made it a lettuce bun with veggie burger. I also subbed fries for tortilla soup. My burger started out at 18.95 and ended up being 26 with all the subs! Yikes. My phone died before I could take pictures of my burger. It was very good though. The tortilla soup was a good amount and was very good. read more

We love this place! It's a regular weekly go-to for drinks and sports. Gabby and Leslie are awesome servers with great personalities. Kayleigh, who brought us our food knew exactly what we ordered and kindly asked if we needed anything else. All three checked on us often during our meal. Order the Maverik (not on the menu) it is my new favorite! read more

Super tasty Fried Chicken sandwich with crispy onions, yum! Love their fries. Just a bit of potato skin and some crispy . And the chicken tortilla soup always consistently tasty. Great service. Good team work. And Kimberly super friendly and attentive. A lively spot. Good for families and couples a like. read more

Islands in Anaheim Hills stands out from other locations thanks to its consistently fresh, high-quality food and top-notch service.

Went in for dinner Wednesday night and our server Katie R was great! She was very prompt and the food was also delicious. We wanted to give compliment to the cook Anthony, Katie told us she prepared our meals and they were amazing! Everything was great will be back! read more

Came back to islands yesterday to get there $10 burger and fries deal well worth it service was great very busy place. The only thing I really didn't like their ranch dressing is like water sure wish they'd thicken it up a little or change the ranch dressing you're using Other than that. Everything was great. There is always a nice vibe in this place, especially during the summer. read more

Is it me or Islands getting better with age? The menu has evolved. The adult beverage selection has increased. And when there's a wait for a table, there's always room in the bar area. I know it's weird I didn't get a burger, the fried fish tacos and the chicken tortilla soup are actually my favs. And I was needing something hardy so I went for the tacos. Which were deliciously filled to the brim. The ice cold beer paired perfectly. Even though the beer and drink flights were taunting me. Next time when I have more time to hang out. If you get a chance to eat at the bar, the bartender will take good care of you. So attentive! THANKS Bartender!! read more

Good service, good quality, so many football games ,good WiFi good ocean vibes good for everyone!

Your run of the mill burger place. Nothing special. Over priced burgers and fries...........

Honestly I was very surprised about the food quality and how nice the atmosphere was while dining inside. I especially respect and admire the amazing cook Alexander on grill. He not only cooked my chicken to perfection, it was so juicy and filled with love and dedication. He definitely deserves a raise from his amazing performance. Keep it up Alexander! You're my favorite burger cook! read more

With all the other options around, I can't say this is your best choice, but neither is it your worst. They do well at keeping the whole restaurant looking like a tiki bar (with the customary strong cocktails). The food isn't bad, either. The burgers (all cooked medium) come out more towards medium-well, and they put all the ingredients together well. Many places neglect the meat in favor of the other ingredients, but these patties would be good even on their own. The fries were nothing to write home about. The tacos are where things fell apart (or didn't, as it were). One of my party mentioned that the carnitas were a little crunchy instead of being tender. Service was prompt and checked in just enough to keep the drinks full. read more

Great service but tonight was a bit skimpy on the chicken tacos. $17.50 for north shore tacos.

Their service was just okay and the food was just okay. I probably won't return. I did feel ill later that day but I don't know if it was from the food. There was so much sauce on the chicken sandwich that I only tasted the sauce so I don't know if the chicken was good. read more

Food and service was amazing! Definitely coming back. Sharon and Mark are great managers. Ambiance was good!

Island's was a staple of my youth so whenever I return, it brings back memories. My favorite burger, the Mavericks, is no longer on their menu, but we found a new favorite. We have been here twice in the last two weeks and don't regret a minute of it. Ordered the Kilauea burger with Impossible patty each time. I would not change a thing about this. AWESOME! The flavor of the pepper is amazing. I also didn't know they have stopped doing the unlimited French fries with burgers. Getting ranch and those free refills was why I would go there often. Bummed that they took that out. The spinach dip was a bit of a buzz kill though. I used love this but I felt like it was super watered down when we ordered it. The chips with Guacamole and salsa is great to share. The brownie for kids is probably a dish I would never order again. Too sweet and not good. read more

Lousy service. Park bench like seats , Wont be back EVER. They also need to change the oil in their fryer. The nachos are dark brown and nasty read more

We arrived around 6 o'clock and we're seated immediately. Our server came by to offer drinks and we were ready to give her our order. When our order arrived, it was steaming hot and delicious. She checked on us a few times and we were able to relax and enjoy a great meal. read more

I always come here for burgers. I enjoy these burgers over Habbit anyday! Food and service are always great.

Great service! Love their Nachos and fish tacos. Gabby is an amazing server and will ask for her every-time! I will be coming back for sure

Just ate at Islands in Anaheim Hills and the food was poor. Ordered the Big Wave and asked for Medium and it was definitely Medium Rare. Told the waitress and she said she out Medium and just walked away. The fries were dunked in salt. Told the Waitress and she just said Sorry and walked away. My husband had ordered the Passion tea. When she brought the refill it was regular tea. My husband asked and she said yes it was the tropical (no it wasn't). Pretty sad dining experience tonight. Waste of $25.00 tonight!!! read more

This is a great Island's restaurant. It has both outdoor patio seating and indoor booths and tables. Bathrooms are clean. There is a bar in the center of the restaurant. Our server was great. We had a salad and a protein bowl. The bowl was flavorful with freshly grilled vegetables, pineapple, and chicken over a bowl of rice. Reasonably priced. read more

The food is always good, the employees are always friendly but I never really feel like the service is ever great. It always seems to take a little longer than it should for a simple burger or sandwich. And my main gripe about this location is.. WHY can you never get your burger/sandwich at the same time as your french fries/onion rings??? It never fails, and it literally happens EVERY time. We go in, get seated, place our order, and just as you're about ready to think "wow this is taking a long time" they drop off a basket of fries for you to nibble on... and tell you that your burger is coming right up. But it never "comes right up". The fries are either gone or cold by the time your burger gets there and they never bring you more when they bring your burger? I ordered a "burger AND fries" not french fries as an appetizer and then a burger 10 minutes later!?!?! It's funny because I remember several years ago they started bringing you a basket of french fries right after you sat down just as like a little appetizer.. which is great, it's kind of like tortilla chips at a Mexican restaurant But don't bring me french fries (that I didn't ask for) if you're going to take them off of the meal that I actually ordered. Doesn't make any sense to me. So if you want your french fries with your burger you need to speak up when you place your order and let them know you would like them together. And don't come here if you're in a hurry because although the service is friendly, it's never quick. read more

Not much to say considering no server acknowledged our table for 12 minutes. Sat with menus and watched the host guy walk passed our table 8 times over and over. The server guy in our section attended to the table right across us and didn't say "hi" or "I will be with you" nothing at all. I watched him give a table their check and still no acknowledgment. I decided to leave, as we were exiting not even the kid at the host podium said "thanks for coming or even recognizing we were the ppl who just walked in. Decided to eat that the Habit instead. read more

My fiancé and I live close to this location and every time we drive past it we always say we are going to stop by for Happy Hour. Well the time finally arrived and we decided to hit up Island's HH! I'm so disappointed in us for taking this long! The prices are amazing! These are the prices I like to see for HH. The food was great, service was great, and the drinks were even better! I believe that the manager dropped off our food and noticed I was low on my mai tai! She asked if I needed another one and immediately had one dropped off right after! Now that's what I'm talking about!! The bar are was poppin and we got there at the right time to snag a table. it wasn't loud and everyone seemed like they were having a good time. It looked like the regulars were sitting up at bar top area. Maybe one day we will get there too . Can't wait to return so I can try the rest of the HH menu! read more

We came here the other day and grabbed some food to-go. Timothy took our phone order. When we got there early, he brought out our drinks while we waited for our food. He brought out order shortly after. He was really friendly and helpful. The most accommodating service we've received at a restaurant in while, but especially at an Islands. We were so grateful to receive such wonderful service from Timothy this last week! read more

Today I went into islands and was absolutely amazed with the Top notch service. The host whose name was Jaden was so sweet and made my day. He has a great smile and the way he placed our fries on our table with a smile was just absolutely stunning. Great Job Jaden, you're amazing!!! read more

The food is ok, what you would expect and is consistent, beer selection a bit pedestrian, but acceptable...but...When the manager comes up to you at your table and berates you for leaving a negative Yelp review based on your experience...No. this was a few months ago, but Just now posting about it. I mulled it over for a bit but I have to be honest in my reviews. We won't be back to this location...ever. Wish I had gotten her name. She is the sole reason we won't come back. read more

If I could get this place a zero I would. I just sat on the patio for 20 minutes. There's two other families (2 top and a 3) currently out on the patio. The two servers came out and talk to them. Didn't say anything to us. Didn't take a drink order. No nothing absolutely terrible. read more
