Best Bacon Cheeseburger

[Guest]

They may not have the best burgers, but the Taco's and mex plates are unreal! "LUCY'S" in hilo.

I agree with Grandma's Kitchen in Honokaa comment. For closer to Puna however, I urge you to check out Maona Lunch counter in the Shipman industrial park. Yep, the one near the Hwy 130 junction on the main highway. They started out as a burger/lunch counter in downtown Hilo near Rubens. Then they did the sit down resturaunt thing at the Hilo shopping Center. The latest location is right there in the Shipman area. The chef been doing bbq outside too. He is known for making great burgers too.

I used to frequent Maona Lunch Counter at their former location downtown Hilo. Good burgers at a good price,as I recall.

If you are up for a drive to Waimea, try Village Burger. Best lamb burger I ever had, get extra napkins! They have truffle fries too.

The bacon cheeseburger at the Lava Rock Cafe in Volcano is REALLY good. (Not to be confused with the Black Rock Cafe in Pahoa which is mediocre).

"x2. Wish they were still there."

The Lava Rock Cafe is as up and running as ever the last time I passed by a day or two ago, if that is the place you are referring to.

Do they serve a "Kobe Beef Hamburger"? A friend of mine had told me of a place in the Waimea area that served such a thing a couple years ago. Heard it was pricey but very good.

Sorry, I was thinking of the one in Kalapana.

Iju, the burger shack at Uncle Robert's is pretty good. PM2, they do but I have not tried it.
