About Islands Restaurants
Islands Restaurants, also known as Islands Fine Burgers & Drinks, is a casual dining restaurant chain specializing in gourmet burgers, fresh-cut fries, and specialty drinks. Established in 1982 by entrepreneur Tony DeGrazier in West Los Angeles, California, the chain has grown to over 50 locations across California and Arizona.
The restaurant's tropical-themed ambiance evokes the Hawaiian concept of "ohana," meaning family. This theme is reflected in the decor and the overall dining experience, aiming to create a relaxed and enjoyable environment for guests.
Menu Offerings
The menu features a variety of gourmet burgers such as the Big Wave, Hula, and Pipeline burgers. Besides burgers, other items include tacos, chicken sandwiches, and a selection of entrée salads. To complement meals, a range of specialty drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, is offered.
Islands Restaurants has also expanded with a virtual concept called Tortilla Beach by Islands, specializing in Mexican-inspired food like burritos, tacos, and bowls. This reflects the brand's commitment to diversifying its menu and catering to broader tastes.
