Hubby's favorite thing to get whenever we are here to meet up with some friends. Food came out fast and the staff always super friendly. Plenty of tables if you want to dine.
Are you a hotdog Fan ? For years my go to hotdog was at Shake Shack in California Mahaloha just took over the Crown. All beef hotdog grilled to perfection on a toasted brioche bun preloaded with diced onion and relish. It appeared nicely with the onion rings I had ordered which were crispy and also tasty on a scale of one to 10 it was 9.5. And it only $8.50 it was a deal!
The cashier was very friendly and answered my question. I ordered the mushroom cheese burger and wanted well done. It was cooked perfect with lots of crispy fries and gave me a handful of catsup...yum. I had put down my food with a bottle of Coke Zero. It was a very loud noisy day...somewhat overcrowded. Food is good...Ciao!
Okay, first off: I do not eat burgers and did NOT eat a burger from here. So go read another review if you're wondering about their burgers LOL Anyways, location is pretty convenient and easy considering it's in a foodcourt in a major mall. I absolutely cannot blame them for any parking or location issues because they lucked out getting a good location and it's right by the door too! The biggest thing to watch out for in this location is your spot in line since the foot traffic can get crazy since it's by the door. A lot people will walk around you while you're in line so just make sure you know who is in front and even in back of you. Now, why am I reviewing this place? Because the grilled cheese was great! Again, I'm not a burger person and honestly, I try not to buy food at Ala Moana because I know I'm paying " tourist prices," but I was hungry and needed something to hold me over to get me home. I noticed the $7 price and saw it was for grilled cheese and fries. Any meal that is under $10 seemed worth it to me so I got it. I gotta admit, for something so simple, it did it's job. I especially like the type of bread they use for this. AND the fries were cooked to perfection. I believe at the time, they also offered garlic fries and again, perfection! Good fries, good grilled cheese, good service, all around I have no complaints. 10/10 would buy again.
I tried Mahaloha Burger when they had a location in the Royal Hawaiian SC, so I knew they were good. ATMOSPHERE: Located in the Lanai food court at Ala Moana Center, they share communal indoor & outdoor tables with other eateries. MENU: Beef, chicken, fish & veggie burgers and hot dogs. FOOD: Mushroom Swiss with Fries Excellent burger with a nice char, perfectly seasoned, and dressed well with mayo & mustard, pickles, lettuce, tomato, sautéed mushrooms and onions. The patty was slightly bigger than the bun too. The fries were a thicker shoestring that stayed crispy on its journey back to our hotel. Highly recommended. SERVICE: The gal at the counter was a great multitasker. Super friendly and handled the register, food order ups and tray returns all with a smile. Food is made to order and was served in under 10 minutes. OVERALL: Good-sized, priced right and delish!
After some shopping, it was time for lunch. Since we were near the Lanai food hall, we decided to come here to grab a bite to eat. Checking out the options here, I decided to get a burger here. Having had a burger at another location before, I remembered it was the loco moco burger and decided to order it again. The burger was thick and juicy. The patty was topped with a medium cooked egg, some gravy and pieces of crispy onion. Crispy fries came with the burger. It hit the spot. Not your ordinary burger.
A solid burger spot in Ala Moana's Lanai food court, Mahaloha Burger is located near the entrance when coming from the Macy's side. The place is a counter in the food court with the menu behind the counter. There are tables and chairs in the food court, but they can become filled due to customers from all of the businesses. The food court is pretty bright and can become crowded. However, it is smaller than the Makai Marketplace food court on the lower level. The people working were nice and they were quick with the order. I have previously ordered the veggie burger, which is quite good. This time, I got the loco moco burger, which was also good. It was a burger with some kind of sauce that tasted kind of like teri sauce. There was an egg in it too, which was running as I was eating. This made it pretty messy but it was tasty. The burger came with fries, and I like their fries. They are crispy and just the right amount of salty. Hope to come back for this burger again soon!
Very friendly cashier who's smile was very contagious. Ambiance went to zero after reading how they had a bed bug infestation in their wooden seats...eeew. That's supposedly fixed by now ( 8-19-25.) Their veg burger and fries really filled me up. It's as deluxe as they come, with tomato, lettuce, and grilled onions. Like most places, they have a good mayo/ketchup/relish special sauce to keep it all juicy. For about $15, it's a good deal.
Great service with a great burger experience, The staff was very accommodating. We love the set up of being right in the middle of the mall, perfect spot and seating
Wow I should have stopped by this place sooner. Ordered a Mushroom Swiss Burger with Teri Sauce (addt $1) and Fries. It's a big burger, flavorful, juicy and oh so messy when you eat it all. The fries were cooked to nice crisp that I love. Food came out quick, what more could I ask for. Happy Tummy here, and will be back in the future.
Pretty good burger, i got the pineapple Teri burger. The teri sauce wasn't very strong, I liked the bun and the meat was cooked medium (I asked for med rare). I really liked the fries which are coated and have a nice crunchy exterior.
I would come back here JUST for the amazing garlic fries!! I got a fantastic, perfectly cooked BBQ Burger, subbed Swiss for the cheddar or American. Added pickled jalapeños. I love the bun they use and it was a big burger, very well seasoned & tasty, fresh ingredients. But those FRIES. Wow! I haven't tried garlic fries that good since my last SF Giants home game @ Pac Bell Park where they famously serve Gilroy garlic fries. great service too, cashier was nice, v helpful & fast. Tall Popolo looking young woman. Go to Mahaloha! You can't go wrong!!
Sign says $3 drink with purchase of a burger. As you can see on the receipt, I got charged $3.95. They said it's only because I upsold to truffle fries that it doesn't give the $3 drink. I DID buy a burger. Where's the $3 deal? Fix the POS or your sign, or train your employees on customer service. I just wanted a refund for the difference, but their system"doesn't work that way" so they offered to refund the drink. After they gave me the money back, they grabbed my drink and dumped it. Okay. I can get my drink for cheaper elsewhere, and I can take my business elsewhere too!
The prices have gone up a bit and now all the burgers come with fries. We got the pineapple teriyaki and double cheeseburger. All the burgers with fries were around $16. I upgraded my regular fries to garlic fries $3. I added a large drink for around $4. Their food is still awesome. Thank goodness that their burgers are still regular size. I love that their fries are always crispy. Make sure to try the truffle fries or garlic fries. They're so good. read more
Update: 5/8/26: Went back and spoke to owner and got my free replacement teriyaki pineapple burger with free fries. It was made fresh and complete. Im happy to report they made good on their word and it was delicious as I remembered from previous visits!! Thank you Keola! read more

Everyone makes mistakes. Not sure if the staff was overwhelmed that night at the lanai but after a rush of customers they seemed to be frazzled. Food took some time to come out but once it did it was smooth sailing. I got a mahaloha burger with an egg and fries. The burger turned out so ono and the fries took an extra leap ahead of anything I tasted. Big kudos to the people grinding it out in the back! The lanai is one giant food court. Many of the places are excellent but I was feeling like a burger and got it that night for dinner. The entire food court echos so if you're not into that then maybe go elsewhere. I will say it's a great place to tell story and get loud and crazy though! haha. read more

After their Kailua store closed, these 2 cashiers were transferred here to the Ala Moana store. Both were always very friendly and accomodating getting my order right, as I always had modifications to make. Love that I can add grilled pineapple to my veggie burger! And, Mckenzie (in black) is now the General Manager for this store as well as the Waikiki store; very well deserved! read more

Recently had a hamburger at somewhere else in Ala Moana so this rating is in comparison to that burger that I ate at the other place. This review is just for the cheese burger as I did not try the other burgers or side orders. Service - 5 stars. Fast order taking and drinks are fast as it is located next to cashier. They also give you a buzzer which is way better than calling out a number or name. Price - 2.5 stars. Little on the expensive side for the quality of the burger. I had #1 - best selling cheeseburger (I did not see any number on the menu without the cheese). Cleanliness - 0 stars. Observed food cleaner who gathers the empty trays around the eating area, (the trays that are placed on top of the trash bins), return a bunch of trays to the cashier, who then takes a rag and brushes off the stuck on food into the sink behind the cashier that is just below where the new food comes out, then hands them back to the kitchen area for reuse, yuck. Food - 2.5 stars, hard to make a bad burger. Cheese burger - bun, cheese, tomato, lettuce, pickle - okay. Meat - looks like they use a mold so consistent size, the hamburger beef patty could be made tastier, this is where it lost stars. The low rating is because this is a place that basically specializes in burgers (there are also some hotdog on the menu), so to earn a good rating they would have to beat a place that doesn't specialize in just burgers. If you don't mind waiting, go next door to Liliha Bakery in Macy's for a tasty burger. If you're craving a burger with no time, then you are out of luck as this is the only burger place in this food court. read more

Hubs and I wanted a snack. We found ourselves at Mahaloha as we wanted to try the truffle fries. Hubs also ordered a hotdog which came with fries as well. Fries arrived hot and crispy; I think they're twice fried. They are good fries, although I would've liked a stronger truffle flavor throughout. The hotdog was ok. Nothing in particular stood out about it, though. read more
Big portions, Good prices [Honolulu HI] Mahaloha Burger is located in the Lanai Food Hall inside Ala Moana Center on the opposite end of Musubi Cafe Iyasume. Since hubby didn't want any Spam Musubis (which I chose for me) he wanted to have a burger instead. He chose the Loco Moco Burger and I wanted a side of Garlic Fries. We were given a pager buzzer which then alerted us when our food was ready. The Loco Moco was a bit messy to eat with the egg and gravy on the patty but hubby enjoyed it a lot. The garlic fries was hot, crispy with a good amount of garlic. Loved it! The serving was yuge and between the two of us we couldn't finish it. LoL! It was 30 mins to closing time and they were still busy. Table seating inside the Lanai is shared communal tables but Mahaloha also has table seating immediately outside the double sliding doors (outside the air conditioned area). Review #3572 read more

Mahalohas Burger is solid! I ordered the Avocado Chicken Swiss with fries and was pleasantly surprised--the chicken was juicy and not dry at all. The flavors were well-balanced, and the avocado and sauce complemented the sandwich nicely. I do wish there was a bit more sauce, but overall it was very tasty. The fries were fresh and crisp. I also got two kids' meals (sliders and fries), and the service was great. The lady at the counter was very attentive--she even asked whether I wanted the burgers cooked medium-well or well-done for the kids, and whether it was okay for them to have Coke. Small touches like that go a long way. I'll definitely be back to try other burgers! read more

The start of 2024 is upon us! I couldn't think of any way to start than to travel to Ala Moana and find a place to eat. It led me to Mahaloha Burger. My expectations were a little mixed, but after thinking about how many times I passed this place, I decided that, you know what, it's time I go ahead and go for it. Sure enough, I was right to go over there. I ordered their signature Loco Moco burger. Although it did cost me $10 and some change, it was worth the wait. I couldn't wait to dig right into it. I liked what I ate from top to bottom. Everything about it made perfect sense. It tasted like I'm enjoying a Loco Moco, but replaced with a brioche bun instead of rice. It eats like a Loco Moco, tastes like a Loco Moco, and, surprisingly feels like I'm enjoying one. The pickle chips, I didn't taste them that much because they sort of get lost with all the other flavors going on inside. Overall though, I really enjoyed their food. Would I recommend this place? If you want to look for something adventurous to eat, I'd say...go for it. Thanks, Mahaloha Burger, for making me a happy customer. Definitely my go-to burger on my next future visits. 10/10 read more

If you're ever in the need for protein,I recommend going here .the girl who was the cashier today was so sweet and she did an amazing job at reminding me about utensils because I forgot , I got there around 3 something today and every time I order from here I always see the hot dogs but I never order I decided it was the day to try something new ,I can safely say it was the best decision I made .the lobster roll hot dog was phenomenal,the burgers are always amazing! Definitely gonna try the dole pineapple next time! read more
This is up in the Lanai food court at Ala Moana Shopping Center. Tons of seats at this food court. Great selection of burgers, hot dogs and fries on the menu. I like the different varieties available. I ordered the loco moco burger and it was great. Burger was perfect and the egg, gravy and bun really put it together. Also ordered the trufle fries which were crispy and flavorful. Fast service from friendly staff. I'll be back to try more flavors. read more
We stumbled across the upper food court at the Ala Moana Center not expecting to buy anything but Mahaloha Burger's loco moco dog really called out to us. It was sooo good! We regretted only finding this place on our last day in Hawaii. We checked it out when we came back 3 years later but they didn't have the loco moco dog on the menu anymore. We were so sad! There's plenty of seating in the food court. read more
Bleh... not sure why the hype. I opted for the burger that had "slivers" of avocado. I requested a lettuce wrap in which costs 1.50 more. It's not a wrap but rather 2 lettuce leaves on each side of the burger. I leaves were actually brown. I had asked them to please change the lettuce. Both cooks in the back gave me a long stare as they only exchanged one of the lettuce wraps. The other was ripped and brown-ish areas. The fries were "so so". Not sure if I'd do this again. read more

Came here on our last day because we were craving burgers. Food came out fast, there's plenty of seating in the food court. Loved how they had some more Hawaiian options. I got the pineapple burger with onion rings and it was pretty good! Onion rings were crispy and the burger was flavorful, the sauce it had was delicious. It was a little pricey for fast food essentially but a good spot if u want something fast and chill. read more

Where is this in the mall?
it's in Lanai "food hall" near Macy's-Starbucks, mall level.
Are the bottom buns suppose to be stiff and harder? I ordered from here recently and everything about the burger was great, but the bottom bun was stiff? Thought that was something new. It didn't look old.
My husband ordered the burger, and the bottom is fine. It may have just been an off day.
