Islands Restaurant in Chula Vista's Eastlake Village Marketplace brings the 1982-founded gourmet burger chain to 2255 Otay Lakes Road, where fresh-ground, never-frozen beef patties anchor a Hawaiian-themed menu at the intersection of Otay Lakes Road and Eastlake Parkway. The full bar pours tropical mai tais, draft local beers, and house margaritas alongside a happy-hour menu, a drinks-and-food program that joins the eastern Chula Vista dining cluster near BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse at nearby Otay Ranch Town Center. Signature burgers include the Hawaiian—a half-pound patty with teriyaki glaze and grilled pineapple—the Kilauea with pepper jack and jalapeños, and the Big Wave flagship dressed with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and house mayo on a toasted bun. Founder Tony DeGrazier conceived the Islands concept while stationed with the U.S. Navy in O'ahu during the 1960s, and the chain's "ohana" theme carries into this Eastlake location near the concert traffic from North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre south of the 91915 corridor. A San Diego County health inspection score of 99 out of 100 covers the kitchen's each-morning beef-grinding protocol, where whole-muscle cuts are ground each morning to maintain the coarse texture and fat ratio that distinguish the chain's patties from frozen alternatives.
