“ We were in the mood for a smash burger. Haven't been here before but this place got good reviews. Super glad we came! Free parking through the alley behind the building, dog friendly, and courteous staff. It's got a 1960's burger/ surf shack vibe and the food was fantastic. Highly recommend. ”
“ Food quality: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Cleanliness: 5/5 Value: 5/5 Don't skip on: The Teriyaki Burger, fries, and Passionfruit Milkshake Tried Betty’s Burgers for the first time and it was delicious! They serve smashburger style burgers that are flavorful and a great quick bite! We ordered the Teriyaki’s Burger and the Double deluxe with cheese - both super tasty! I really liked the teriyaki burger for the sauce aspect and it was a great balance. The fries were SO good! Perfectly crispy upon the outside and mashed potato-y on the inside. And to top it off, we got the Passionfruit milkshake - a good balance of sweet, creamy, sour, and a hint of saltiness. Great burger joint! Can’t wait to go back! ”
“ So glad I finally tried thos spot. The burger was maybe the best I've had in honolulu. Portion was huge and the meat was juicy and tasty. Bun was soft and chewy. Best part was how fair the pricing is. When you make it a double the price only increases by $1.20. Most places will nearly double the price for a second patty. Likewise, add one like bacon or guacamole don't break the bank and are well worth it. Owner greeted us and was very friendly. Can't wait to return. ”
“ Visited by way of our tour bus driver. This place has one of the best cheese burgers I’ve had in a long time Cooked to perfection and the fries are homemade. Downside the pigeons that are too bold to peck at your feet while you eat hoping for a crumb ”
