Great place! Love the vibe, just across from the beach. I had to send my burger back twice, but when they brought it the third time, it was absolutely perfect! Onion rings were crunchy, and my husband said the fish tacos were fantastic!

The open air seating is fantastic overlooking the beach. Five stars is not enough for the atmosphere. I had fresh squeezed pineapple juice. First restaurant where I have that as an option. I elected it over the mimosa my friend ordered. It was well worth it. The mimosa not so much. Just run of the mill coffee. Not the native brand from the island. For the meal, I ordered the just eggs which has two eggs, chose crispy bacon, dry wheat toast, and a side sausage. The hash browns were too crispy for my taste. My friend had the loco moco. Two eggs over hamburger patty over rice and brown gravy with added mushrooms. His assessment was great. A full days calories in one bowl.

This is a restaurant I’ve passed by on every visit to Hawaii. Today, I finally got to try it with my family and had a burger. It’s located in a busy area with lots of foot traffic, and there’s always a line of people waiting. We ordered a cheeseburger, a steak burger, and a mahi sandwich. I had the steak burger, and it was one of the best I’ve ever had! The cheeseburger had a classic taste, while the steak burger felt heavier. For the sides, I recommend upgrading one to onion rings. I accidentally ordered the wrong drink and asked if I could change it, and they replaced it right away. The service was perfect!

Incredible Burgers & Amazing Service! My husband and I visited Cheeseburger in Paradise while on our honeymoon in Hawaii, and we had the best experience! Our server, Noah, was incredibly kind and helpful in guiding us through the menu. His recommendations were spot on! Shout out for being so amazing. We ended up ordering the Steakhouse Burger and the BBQ Cheeseburger, and wow, both were absolutely delicious! I don’t usually eat burgers, but I devoured every bite. Hands down, the best burger I’ve ever had! The atmosphere was perfect open, breezy, and right by the beach, creating such a relaxing and enjoyable vibe. The staff was friendly, and our food arrived in a timely manner. We couldn’t have asked for a better dining experience! Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Hawaii. We’ll definitely be back if we ever get the chance!

We didn't find too many great burgers while we were there, but these were dang good. I guess with the name, it better be. Great sunset across the street, so plan accordingly.

Cheeseburger Island Style was great while Cheeseburger was not that good- not recommendable. My kid liked grilled cheese sandwich a lot. We could enjoy our dinner watching sunset in Waikiki beach. good location and view.

OK, against my better judgment I am going to divulge one of my go to secrets. I have been traveling in and out of Honolulu for the past 35 years. Finding a quick place to get in and get out for breakfast can be challenging to say the least. One morning a couple of years ago I was strolling past Cheeseburger and Paradise and decided to check out their menu. Yes, I knew they were famous for their burgers, but had no clue about their breakfast menu. Now every time I fly into Honolulu, I make my way to Cheeseburger in Paradise, where I can have a seat at the bar and enjoy an awesome breakfast with a hot cup of coffee served up by a very professional wait staff. Previously, I mentioned their wonderful burgers. You have definitely got to try their Alls Good burger. Wow. ‘Nough said!
