About Islands Restaurants
Like most things in the 80’s, it all started with a desire to have a good time. Fast forward 40 years and millions of burgers later, Islands is still a place that people turn to when they are looking for good food, friendly people, and a fun atmosphere. Our menu has continued to evolve through the years with the addition of seasonal favorites, health-conscious offerings and a variety of craveable flavors. When you walk into your flight-free local paradise, you are immediately transported to a place where your family and friends can come together and share what Islands offers best, beach vibes and happiness!

Come on down, grab yourself a Mai Tai and feel free to stay awhile—we did!
Over 40 Years of Serving Great Food
Our doors opened in 1982 with a basic philosophy – serve great, fresh food with friendly service in a fun atmosphere. When we opened it was an instant hit. Actually we ran out of food that first night at our West Los Angeles location. Since that first night, we’ve been expanding. You can now find more than 40 Islands Restaurants throughout California and Arizona.
People are Our Special Ingredient
It all starts with our people. We hire only the hardest working and most ambitious to serve under the Islands banner. Our commitment to you is to make your career goals a reality. In short, we are looking for people with a passion for the restaurant industry and dedication to providing outstanding guest service.
Fun Isn't on the Menu, But it Should Be!
It doesn't matter if you're a guest, or an employee, one thing you can count on while at Islands is fun! The causal atmosphere and great people make everyone who walks through the door feel like family, while the tropical decorations and menu items will make you feel like you're on vacation! As an employee for Islands, you can enjoy company sponsored events such as softball, volleyball and our annual Snowfest in Big Bear.
