Islands 11 reviews (818) 566-7744 101 East Orange Grove Ave Burbank, CA 91505 losangeles.citysearch.com Write a Review Edit Business \| Upload Photo \| E-mail to Friend	Editorial Description by Citysearch The Scene With thatched umbrellas, photos of crashing waves, stuffed toucans and a soundtrack of twangy '60s surf-rock, it doesn't take a genius to figure out this chain's theme. Yep, it's beach, burgers and plenty of kitsch. The jovial atmosphere and service (not to mention a full-service bar) lures lunching business folk, beer-drinking college students and families with food-throwing toddlers. The Food Like the decor, the menu is a no-brainer--sandwiches, salads, fries and burgers. Served in a basket with fork and knife, thick beef patties come grilled to order with lettuce, tomato and any variety of extras. For a lighter bite, try one of the soft tacos. Filled with either fish or chicken, the wraps are inauthentic, but tasty. Yaki tacos are stuffed with teriyaki chicken, chives, pineapple and jack cheese. Whatever you order, don't forget the fries. These hand-cut, super-crispy sticks are addicting, especially when dipped in creamy ranch dressing.

We had barely no waiting, with menus stationed at our table. Good restaurant for drinks, food, and burgers. I enjoyed an appetizer of tender and yummy "Tiki Tenders" or chicken strips and some endless fries. Yum! Posted 01/11/09 Wow...What a Burger!!! By BuurgerBoy You must go to Islands in Burbank. It is by far the best burger in LA! Get a Hawaiian Burger and fries and you are in Paradise. Always fast and friendly service with great atmosphere. The burgers are juicy and fries are the best! Highly recommended! Pros: Great food and service Cons: Burgers should come with fries, but they are worth adding on for a couple bucks. Posted 06/21/08 Good burgers, great atmosphere By culinaryman I don't know what is with this Jerry guy, who in his review, compared these burgers with Jack in the Box?? Obviously he doesn't know a thing about burgers. Why is there a wait to get a table at this establishment? Because people know the food is good, the restaurant is consistantly busy because of it and people will wait for a good meal! I've eaten here for a number of years with my family and with friends, and at other locations before the Burbank store opened. All the people I have dined here with have always been satisfied with both the service and the food. Give it a try and judge for yourself and meanwhile, let Jerry go eat at Jack in the Box, just one more person I won't have to wait in line behind to get a meal here. Pros: Good food, good service, good atmosphere/theme Cons: Minor wait when busy at rush hours Posted 01/24/08 ISLAND VACATION! By reiss_66 Service is by far the best at the location in Burbank. I've been to several Islands locations and the service varies but the food is always great - with the exception of the french fries. The french fries are dry - IMO - and the burgers are not only cooked to perfection but seasoned just right. I would avoid the tacos and anyone in love with BLT's would love what they have to offer - although it might be heavy on the bacon side. Fruit Punchdrink is a definite plus! Posted 01/01/07 Bad Service By smokesignal03 The service is horrible. It took the server 20 minutes to come back with just soda. All my party ordered where salads which apperently take half an hour to make. All this on during lunch on a weekday! The restaurant was not crowded at all so it shouldn't be an understaffing problem. The Islands chain is good but the Burbank location is bad. Only come here if you have time to waste. Pros: Good Parking On A Weekday Cons: Service Posted 11/23/06
