"I love trying hole in the wall mom and pop eateries, upon getting my vehicle service at a near by dealership I decided to go have lunch with my siblings, this showed up as a near by location, and we'd never heard of it before and decided walk over and pop in and see what it was about, looking at the building there isn't much to look at, upon entering it's got even worse for some for me it was excitement as I looked upon what looks like a family owned grimy little eatery, nothing fancy nothing elegant, in fact the drink dispenser was mostly out of the drinks I wanted and it appeared to need a good servicing, nevertheless. We committed and ordered. WOW. A fantastic burger it was, fresh, tender, flavorful! Everything was so fresh, so robust in flavor! The buns were fresh and soft, the meat seems to be hand made Patties rather than pre-made frozen Patties. The fries were perfectly fried, not dry, nor greasy. The food was piping hot when it touch our table making it all the better. This will be a burger hot spot for me going forward. Lastly but not least. The service was absolutely fantastic, there were only two gentlemen there when I went, one cook and one server, both of them were extremely hospitable. Making for a comforting environment, the cook came to ask how we liked our food, you can tell just by the mannerisms, and the way it's made and how it taste. He took great pride and love into his craft of cooking. And that's what makes this little place worthwhile. I cannot wait for a return visit!"

"My first time at Mahalo wasn't bad, but the food was nothing to write home about. My 2nd time at Mahalo was definitely worse. For starters, they don't use air conditioning. I made the mistake of going on a hot, humid day, and their ceiling fans and open windows did nothing to remedy the utter discomfort of breathing in steamy air while your body sticks to the table and chairs. All we could think about was how to hurry up and get out of there so we could go eat ice cream at Jeni's next door just to cool off. Their rationale is they're trying to give you an island experience, but it doesn't make sense for business because who wants to eat a big meal while sitting in a sauna??? Also, it's extremely unappealing to see the chefs and wait staff constantly wiping sweat off their faces. They just rebranded themselves under a new restaurant called Beach House Social, so hopefully the new place is more prepared to handle the plentiful hot weather of a Chicago summer. Now, let's talk about the food. The veggie poke is unlike any veggie poke I've ever had, and that's not a good thing. I didn't taste a single traditional poke flavor. It was basically some bland vegetables drizzled with a tangy red sauce, and a side of bug. Yes, that's right there was a dead bug stuck to my dish. It wasn't a live bug that flew in through the open windows because it was very much dead and stuck to my plate. (Thankfully, they didn't end up charging me for this dish. My cousin ordered a seafood omelette, which contained a shrimp shell, and my other cousin ordered fish poke, which contained a bone."
