20 Best Burger Restaurants near Kapaa

“Just discovered Kenji burger near the end of my contract with the pride of America and I WILL be back in November! 10/10, absolutely delicious!“

“Absolutely loved this place, my partner and I was here a few days ago. He's always been a big fan of the place and I tried it for the first time. Loved the food and the people, and the best part (my personal opinion) got to see and pet the sray kitty that loves to hang out there and get all the loving and pets from people that come by the place.“

“The cost of a large coke and large fries was $4.29 EACH . ThIS is RIDICULOUS! Your competition sells their drinks for $1. Had I known that it would’ve cost me a few dollars more to get a meal, I would’ve. NEVER AGAIN!“

“Best coconut malasadas that we found. They are super fluffy but not warm. Easy to find and park and they have a variety of coffees“

“Best ribs I’ve eaten ever…thanks Mike! We missed you LPK! 😁“

“Randomly ran into this place and it was total worth it. Great chat with the staff. Got the Sampler Plate and Mac salad. Shared it with my husband and it was more than enough.
Shredded beef and pork was tasty and I loved it in the BBQ sauce. The chicken was the juiciest, most tender I have ever had in my life! Could have at just a plate of the chicken. Ribs were also on point.
If you are in the area, go!
Also, I thought it was fun to have the little water guns for the chickens... You will understand once you go.
I did not try the self serve bar wall but definitely something to do next time.“

“One of the best Garlic Shrimp place on the island so far (we tried 8 others prior). Large shrimps (around 5 pieces) with shell on, head on. Comes hot, spicy, and garlicy. Friendly owner Nd quick service. Not too many shades to sit when it gets crowded.“

“Best McDonald’s on the island! I love their food, and drinks, and all the workers here are very nice! I usually go in the drive thru here rather than go in, and get food. I would go in the drive thru and get food if you want to get your food faster because it takes longer going inside and get it usually. Would I recommend coming here? Yes of course! But it’s better to come when they are not super busy.“

“Shaka Burgers makes me smile! They’re so good! Best burgers on Kauai! And their shaka fries are incredible! All served with a smile out of their red food truck across from the Costco gas station.“

“Maybe our memories were better than the food. It’s been 20 years since we stopped in for a lunch. I’m used to food prices being high in The Islands, and though the food was good, the burger was very petite, and the onion rings were left in the deep fryer a bit too long. Still it was fun to revisit. Just wish they had a restroom on site.“

“One of the only restaurants(if not THE only restaurant) that is a must eat during return visits to Hawaii. Really wish there were locations in our area.“

“Wife and I stumbled into this spot inside a bar and had no idea what to expect. We make it a point to try burgers everywhere we travel, and we’ve covered just about everything back home, so we know a good one when we see it. Smitty’s delivered.

Burger was cooked right, great flavor, and didn’t fall apart halfway through. The cook, who may have been Smitty himself, was super chill and actually took the time to talk through how he does his burgers without acting bothered.

30 minute drive from our hotel and easily worth it. This one stands out.

Waffle fries were crispy and not greasy!“

“Great location with adequate parking, although the facility can be awkward to get to from major roads. Large and attractive facility inside and out. Service is good from conscientious and hardworking employees. Food was good and fresh, but the softdrink machine was shut down and refills had to requested from the counter.“

“I recommend the fried chicken with the Garlic sauce!Not too salty and not super deep fried! Was super good! And they stay up later then most shops in Lihue! 🤙🏻 5 star for me 💙🌺“

“Awesome food! Service was great and the 2 neighborhood dogs were so sweet!“

“friendly service nice atmosphere“

“This place was highly recommended by my patient that was part of a Facebook Group that posted about this place a lot and they were featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. It was good and the service was fantastic, but not so good that we made a second stop on our trip. Their service was quick too, so it's a good stop if you only have a short time to eat! Their menu includes: Truffle Burger, Veggie Burger, Chicken Katsu Sandwich, Kenji Burger (teriyaki, ponzu aioli, caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, tomato & arugula), Misoyaki Fish Sandwich, Salads, Sushi Burritos & Bowls (loco moco, chicken katsu, misoyaki fish, and poke). There are 2 locations on the island“

“Best local place that's in the corner of industrial bldg. and the food is really good. I suggest all visitors and locals if you haven't gone there "GO" but bring cash to pay you won't be disappointed if seeking flavorful foods. Oh the sweets get some they are so delicious too :)“

“McDonald’s Lihue ,HI Serve good quality food ,we serve just cook I’m the one crew w/In six years I love this job but most off all cleanliness we follow the rules for the safe of costumers n us as workers“

“Our bartender, Amanda, was top notch! We ate there a couple times and thought the food was great too.“
