Islands Restaurant West LA

The decor is really nice, gives the place a chill atmosphere. Burgers and salads are pretty great. Not a bad place to get a bite to eat. However the times I've been I either feel like the service is not very attentive or when they are, you feel like they are just rushing you out of the place... Fries every time I've had them have been burnt which is sad because hey are refillable

Honestly there's a few more places a rather go - servers aren't personable - happy hour isn't until 3 at the bar only - drinks are about ten dollars - happy hour food was $10 for two tacos - ... I say choose another place . Couldn't really name anything great other than - the team work was good ... drinks came out quick because other people would bring them out . Oh and don't eat the beans . Have fun!

Great place, great vibe. While the burgers themselves are fairly average, the cheese fries are TO DIE FOR. They are absolutely amazing and I get them every time. Everything on the menu is reasonably prepared fed and they have a full bar with cheap drinks too. You can head a couple doors down to Gulp and pay 4 times as much for the same drink. This is a great spot.

The burgers are always tasty and the bottomless fries are a great reason to dine in. I knocked down a star because although our server was nice and had a good attitude, she didn't check on our table to see if we needed anything after our drinks arrived. I had to ask another server to have my drink remade. Other than that, good place to have lunch and I'll definitely go back.

The place is really small with limited seating. Ordered the Burger. It was good but nothing special. I only received two pork belly pieces and it was all fat and no meat. Definitely needed 10+ napkins because of all the sauce and meat juice dripping all over my hands!

I'm a regular here, I have to say the atmosphere is very welcoming. The teamwork here is beyond perfection. I normally sit at the bar, I recommend all of you to try the bar. You'll most likely be served by either Doug or Fabian, you'll most likely have the best experience with these guys! Try going during the evening hours. My choice of beer is a Large Dog Fish! Buffalo wings with fries is a must!

This is one of my son's favorite restaurants so he took us there while we were visiting him. It is in an old warehouse in downtown LA. For such an open space, the acoustics were good so you could hear each other talk. The food was excellent. we ate a bunch of different appetizers and small plates to share. The calamari was delicious. So was the pasta with fresh crab. The service was top notch. Although not inexpensive, it was worth it for the quality of food and service. We ordered several desserts which were all scrumptious. My only complaint is that their wines are extremely overpriced. I ordered a bottle of Corvina which was 125.00, but could be bought at a wine shop for 25.00. that is beyond the normal mark-up. I would definitely go again, but not have wine.

Great place to bring family and friends to eat. Great selection of burgers. The staff are friendly. A clean and busy place. Finding parking is a bear off of Pico and the surrounding streets. Especially on week days. The price for the food is good and entrees are tasty.
