Outstanding burgers made fresh to order. We tried the Classic and the Pineapple Burger—both exceptionally juicy, flavourful, and clearly not frozen patties. Bold, local Hawaiian character in every bite. Simple, honest food done right. 100% recommend.

The hot chicken burger immediately sets a strong impression, striking a thoughtful balance between heat, texture, and contrast. The chicken delivers a confident spice without overwhelming the palate, complemented by a well-judged sauce that adds depth rather than excess richness. Inside, the cool, crisp coleslaw provides a refreshing counterpoint, cutting through the heat and grounding each bite with freshness.
Yes, it’s a little messy—but in this case, that feels more like a mark of indulgence than a flaw. The chicken is impeccably cooked: shatteringly crisp on the outside while remaining juicy and tender within. The bun deserves special mention as well—soft yet sturdy, it manages to hold everything together without stealing focus. Overall, this is a thoughtfully constructed burger that understands balance, restraint, and comfort, delivering a satisfying experience that lingers well after the last bite.

Absolutely Loved “Hi Burger”!
From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming.
Everyone was super friendly and professional, and the food is made fresh to order, which makes all the difference.
We tried the Chili Loco Moco, and wow — what a winner! The patty was perfectly cooked, juicy, and full of flavor. The chili was rich and hearty, topped with just the right amount of cheese and a perfectly fried egg. Even the fries were crispy and golden perfection.
If you’re in Oahu and craving something local, fresh, and made with care, Hi Burger is a must-visit!

I came here for the shrimp burger. The patty tasted like fresh shrimp deep-fried in a croquette style, and it was really delicious. The onion rings were perfectly fried, the coleslaw was fresh, and the chili sauce was tasty too. Good stuff!
I think the owner might be Korean.

Best burger ever! I highly recommend this place. Burgers are juicy and they are not pre cooked. Also banana shake and pineapple smoothie was so fresh and delicious the owner served us and she was very nice.

I tried the pineapple burger after seeing a YT review, and it was sweet, juicy, and delicious. I’m definitely looking forward to trying their other options. All burgers are made to order, which adds to the freshness. The price is a bit on the higher side compared to portion, but that’s expected given the location. The burger starts around $19. I also really enjoyed the unique indoor stand-style setup, which adds character to the experience.

Well, I must say that I was very surprised by their burgers. I thought it would be just another burger place with the same old taste. I had the bacon egg and cheese burger, and it didn’t disappoint. It was delicious, and the mango smoothie was great as well. Their burgers are not pre cooked, they’re made to order. Sorry about the photo’s as I said, I wasn’t expecting to review this place.

The service is excellent, but the food is incredible! A place I’d totally recommend! The burger is simply perfect — juicy and cooked just right. My favorite: the pineapple burger . The chicken sandwich is wonderfully crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. This is definitely a place I’d come back to. Highly recommended!

Luckily we went to this place on the last night of our vacation, otherwise we would have eaten there every day. It was that good! We chose the place based on all the reviews and everyone was absolutely right… this is a 5-star place. The burgers and fries were fresh and the flavors were on point. Definitely a must-try spot for a good burger in Waikiki.

We had the pineapple burger and truffle fries. The burger was amazing. Juicy and delicious although didn’t taste any teriyaki on it. We wanted to also try the arugula burger but it was sold out. Burgers were made to order. The truffle fries were ok. They had shaker parm cheese which we wouldn’t have ordered if it had said on the menu and didn’t have much truffle taste. But dang, that burger hit the spot.
