Friday’s Featured Birthday Treat at Islands Restaurants

I’m thrilled to present the Islands Restaurants as my very first Friday’s Featured Birthday Treat segment! This very family friendly chain of restaurants has been one of my family’s favorites for a long time. They are located primarily in California and Arizona, but also have a location in Colorado, Hawaii and Nevada.

The Islands Restaurants are known for their “Island” decor and menu selection. They have delicious appetizers, yummy burgers, chicken sandwiches, soft tacos, soups, salads and more. We usually end up with their delicious nachos, hearty and tasty tortilla soup and my son loves to order a his burger “Hawaiian style” from the Gremmie menu.
Now for those of you familiar with the Islands Restaurants, you used to have to order the fresh cut fries on the side, but now they are now selling the burgers with the fries. YUM!
For kids they have a great Gremmie menu with some locations even offering a Kids Eat Free Night (see below for the locations/times). The offer is buy one adult meal and get up to two free kids meals.

The Islands Restaurants also offers a free birthday treat for those that join Tiki Link. When your birthday nears, you’ll receive an email wishing you a Happy Birthday and a coupon for a FREE dessert – either a slice of Kona Pie or Chocolate Lava (seen in picture). This offer is good during your birthday month. We love the Chocolate Lava!
If you’re looking for a holiday gift this season, the Islands Restaurants are also running a holiday gift card promotion. Hurry though time is quickly running out!
For every $100 in gift cards purchased this holiday season, Islands will send you a $20 gift card to use in January 2009.

I would like to try the the ISLAND FISH tacos, and the KAANAPALI KOBB salad. We’ve already joined Tiki Link because there’s an Islands very close to my husband’s office, but I haven’t eaten there yet, so I’d love to win a gift card and try it out. Thanks for the offer!
We love Islands — our faves are hula veggie burgers and the kids love the tiki tenders. fingers crossed.
Island Fish Tacos (my daughter says they are really good) and the Cabo Loco sounds good, too. I’d like to win because eating out is a nice way to get the kids to the table so that we can have a good family talk.

the best are the hawaiian burger and the rotiserie chicken. Yummmmm
The fish tacos and quesadillas sound wonderful… I wish I could have some right now! I’d like to win so I’d have another excuse to go to Las Vegas.
I’ve tried a couple dozen times to sign up for the Islands Tiki Link but keep getting a message that there’s a server error… I’ll keep trying!
I subscribed to the RSS feed via email.
Yum! It is a close tie between the MOA KAI and the TUNA WRAP! Would love to win this to take the kiddos and hubby out for a treat, Islands is very family friendly!!
China Coast and Yaki are my two favorites. I always have a hard time deciding which to get. I’d love to win this so I can get both, plus it’s my birthday today.
We have an islands near the house but I have never been before, always wanted to go though.
NACHOS and RINCON BURGER. There food is soooo yummy!!
Yum! I want ONION RINGS and the MAUI burger!
I love their endless batch of fries (so tasty!!) and the veggie hawaiian burger. There’s an Islands close to us and if I won, I’d take the family out as a special treat! With the poor economy, eating out is the first luxury to go!
I subscribed!
I am following you on twitter.
Well, I’ll admit that if I won the gift card I’d be tempted to go to Islands #3 where I used to work 20 years ago when they first opened and place an order for some Big Hut nachos and a Firebird, just to see the confused expression on the face of the waiter or -tress when they can’t find those entries on the touchscreen ordering system! [I have to admit, I don't remember the old codes anymore myself: 96 & 57? Sigh...]
In the end, I’d almost certainly order a Hawaiian [which comes w/ pineapple thanks to ME & my single-handed efforts to get all my customers to get it w/ pineapple when it didn't come with it.. next step was to add BACON, which was also so successful that they started listing it as an option on the menu. Hi Reiko! Hi Tim! Still lovin' the food, wish I'd taken the offer of the 3rd key position instead of going off to school...]
Anyway, I still love Islands food, & still wish I could wear shorts & an aloha shirt as my work “uniform” and get to go to work at a place with such a great atmosphere everyday!
Oops! I forgot to add: “…and an order of onion rings, which they declined my suggestion to add to menu back then, & which I see they finally did, or maybe a slice of Kona pie [back in my day, the only dessert option was a chocolate shake from the shake machine!
]
love the Yaki and the China Coast, would love to win this and give it to my pop
