Kenji Burger Kilauea

Average food and small. I really appreciated the quality of the food (grass fed beef), but the servings were too small and it wasn’t stellar food. Tried the Kenji and Truffle burgers

The taco trio is ?. Each flavor is delicious in it's own right. My husband loved the moko loco. Mom loved the truffle burger. And her bf loved the ahi tuna sandwich so much he went back for a second on another night. Overall great place as everything is reliably good.

Came here in June 2024. My kid and I loved this place that we ate at the other locations for dinner and lunch as well. Enjoyed the scenery at this location. I would highly recommend eating here.

Tall guy at the front desk had a a shitty attitude and hardly let me finish a sentence without interrupting me with “okay and?” Burger happa burger was DROWNED in soy douche and furikake fries were the same deal. Soy douche flavored burgers and fries with shitty service. I paid $50 to get the runs

The burgers we got were actually delicious.
Truffle burger is super flavorful. Hapa burger was fire. Furikake fries were unique and awesome.
Docking a star only because the tall gentleman taking our orders was incredibly unpleasant & unwelcoming. I'd come back, but to the plenty of other locations on the island.

Ate lunch and dinner here with family of 6. Burgers were extraordinary. Try the jacked up fries with ponzu sauce and seeds. If gluten free, request meat patty without marinade (all patties marinaded in terriyaki). Fries in shared fryer. Usually crowded. Son reported the loco moco was best on the island. Most seating outside. Highly recommend.

Dietary restrictions: Limited vegetarian options (wrap). If gluten free, request non marinated patty (patties marinaded in terriyaki). Suggest calling ahead to make sure they still have some. No gf buns. Shared fryer for fries. No complaints.

Loved every part of our lunch here. Staff was friendly and service was super quick. We got 3 burgers, all yummy, and a veggie roll. I try vegetarian sushi everywhere we go and am usually disappointed compared to what I get at home, but I finally had a roll I will look forward to having again! Love the crunchy bits and pickled daikon—those really add something substantial to a veggie roll and take it from “meh” to “hell yeah!” Also, the furukaki fries were a hit and we liked how they complimented the burgers. Relaxing atmosphere, pleasant music and the breeze was a nice reprieve from the heat. Will be recommending and coming back!

Nice place for a burger but overpriced for what you get, although standard for island.

We ordered the Kenji burger and the Truffle burger, each with a side of fries. One was regular fries and the other was the furikake fries. Portions are decent but if you’re feeling ravenous, one order may not feel fulfilling enough.

At the end of the day, it’s a burger and fries. Nothing truly outstanding. The service and the atmosphere were nice. Being from California, we thought In N Out burgers were more worthwhile in terms of taste. All that to say, now we’re comparing the burgers to that of a fast food restaurant…

Burger was delicious. We all got something different, and they were all so good! Truly a good burger. We also got the furikake fries, which again were amazing. I would definitely go back!

Maybe the other menu items are better, but I found the truffle burger to be extremely mid. Definitely on the overcooked side, without anything special about it. Was just ok. For the price not really worth in my opinion.

Worst bartender ever.

The food is phenomenal. I originally imagined that the teriyaki sauce and furikake over the burger and fries would be odd, but this ended up being one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. The flavors balanced out with one another, as no flavor overpower another— the choices of the toppings made is nothing short of amazing. The fries were perfectly crispy too, and easily addicting. The backdrop of the mountains were mesmerizing, and the guy who served us was pretty funny and outgoing, in addition to that, the chickens were awesome, they’re super cute and add to the atmosphere.

I stopped by to see the menu at 10:45 AM asked if she had to go menu briskly said no. You can take a picture of the menu which I did then I couldn’t find their hours so I said I looked for your hours, but I didn’t see them. She said she was too busy to talk to me blurted out the hours which I couldn’t follow! How can a business be too busy to tell me what their hours are? I don’t need that kind of Negative horrible attitude! Why would I ever want to go back?
