Kua Aina is a chill Hawaiian store that specializes in burgers and sandwiches; its ambience hits the spot! The moment we enter it, we're greeted by vibrant colors of tropical Hawaii - hanging 🌺hibiscus blooms, 🌴coconut tree, surfboard art walls😎🌊🏄♂️ 🏄♀️ - and genial service staff.
Kua Aina whips up flavorsome food that comes in ample portion. No wonder the store fills up quickly.
Each bite of Roast Beef Sandwich is a burst of flavors!!! The rich, hearty taste of thinly-sliced beef, crisp freshness of the lettuce, tomato and onion, and lightly toasted multi-grain bread all layered together in perfect harmony. Oishii😋😋
Fried Chicken, Chicken Nuggets, Popcorn Shrimp and skinny fries are outstanding!!! Succulent inside, super crisp and crunchy outside! No greasiness, no musty smell or taste from overused oil in food a BIG plus! Also, the dipping sauce that accompanies the shrimp is delish😋😋
Creamy goodness of Pumpkin Soup is deliciously satisfying, perfect for chilly morning and goes really well with the sandwich!
Caffè Latté and Mango Iced Tea are well-balanced, to our liking! Spot-on Mango juice-tea ratio to sweetness, befitting Kua Aina special drink; very refreshing tropical taste!
What a great way to start the day!!! Our brekkie here certainly reminds us of the days in Oahu; can't wait to try the Chunky Cheese Avocado Burger, Onion Rings and pancakes!
Palatable menu, efficient staff, chic Hawaiian homey beach décor with soft background music, exuding an inviting yet soothing atmosphere, are reason enough to make repeat visits!...

-The burgers are expensive, and that was without the sides or extra toppings. I don't like spending money unless a justified purchase, and this place seems like it's not.
When it comes to Hawaiian food, I don't really think of burgers, but they were pretty good. The flavors were not overwhelming, and it was a large portion size.
That being said: burgers fit an image in my head that can be held and eaten in hand. If the contents of the burger fall out while I'm eating it, I am not for it. I would not complain if they had utensils for this, but I did not see any. This could have been my fault as I didn't ask the staff for anything.
If you like large portion sizes, good tasting burgers, and don't care about the price, or how it's served; this place might be the...

One of the most amazing burgers I’ve had in my life. Absolutely worth the queue.
Putting avocado in a burger is an ingenious way of adding buttery richness without the guilt. Poppy seeds on a kaiser bun? Who would’ve thought this would complement burgers so well. Smoky, well-caramelised beef patty that is a bit pink in the middle? Gorgeous.
Will surely visit this chain restaurant again...
