Islands Restaurant Santa Clarita

Waitress was incredibly nice and helpful.
I ordered a Hawaiian burger with a Caesar salad.
Manager (possibly?) brought my salad out and said they were remaking my burger because it was sloppy and overcooked.
I ordered medium.
That was perfectly okay with me; I was glad for them to remake it.
The sauce and pineapple had good flavor with the burger, but I prefer a big, juicy burger.
My husband had the Kilauea burger with fries.
It was not good.
There was so much black pepper seasoning that it made the taste of the burger unbearable.
He ate less than half.
The fries were good and crispy.
My niece had the kids burger with pineapple.
She special requested that the pineapple be grilled and they were more than willing.
The staff was incredible; the burgers were just okay.

Island's does a decent job giving you a burger and fries experience.
My wife and I visited on a Friday night...It was crowded and we didn't have time to wait but found spots for us at the bar right away. The star of our meal here is always the fries...among the best restaurant fries out there. We also appreciate that they offer an Impossible Burger option as we're both vegetarians and that allows us to have as real-as-possible burger and fries night out at a place that's a step or 2 above fast food.
I had the Big Wave, made with an Impossible patty.
It was pretty good.
I've had better, I've had worse...it did the job. For vegetarians you can also have a "veggie patty" if you're not into Impossible.
There are other options too if you're not into a burger and fries, including nachos, quesadilla, a unique Tempura Green Beans side, and a few other sides to choose from. Also the island theme gives you a nice cocktail menu including a Mai Tai and others. We'd come back occasionally.

Great energetic vibe with great food! Our server Gretell was amazing.
She was a rockstar server who knew how to handle her station and get her guest what they need before being asked.
They food tasted fresh and hot out of the kitchen.
