Such an amazing burger. The spice level is insanely amazing. The more you eat the more it hits you. Its such a profound spice that sinks into your chest and makes you sweat a bit and rethink that next bite.Yes, it is expensive, and thats why I did not give it 5 stars. I mean, yeah its Santa Monica, WHAT IS NOT EXPENSIVE there?But still, its plain robbery how they sell everything individually instead of a good ol' combo.All Imma say is, if you are going as a pair then save a few bucks and just order one set of fries. I mean, technically you do not have to drink while you eat, but if you have to...then I guess order some drinks, but again its all individually sold. If you are a couple, or family, then share a drink and save some money.Other than that, amazing food. Just a tad too expensive.Sidenote: LGBT friendly, very clean, and amazing customer service. :)
I give them many kudos for having very friendly staff and service. Also the quality of the beef is top-notch and some of the best I've had. The texture is so unique compared to any other burger I've had. The twice fried fries are amazing and must try! Here's where there is room for improvement: No cash accepted, cards only. Not a big deal and I understand it's much more convenient for a business not to deal with cash. Lettuce wrap burger protein style did not have any extra lettuce compared to a regular bun version burger. Only two layers of lettuce and so thin I could barely hold the bottom of my burger. I recommended they give generous amounts of lettuce for protein style version, so it looks like the lettuce is similar thickness as a bun. Next time I will try ordering with the buns since they looked so good! My burger was soaking in liquid, not so nice. My friends burger had much less liquid on his plate. Easy to solve, just drain it before serving. Overall the experience was very positive and I recommend HiHo cheeseburger as a great place to enjoy a fine burger. Nice outdoor ambiance seating as well.
My favorite burger in LA. This location has gotten crowded over the last few years. I'd recommend downloading the HiHo app and placing a pick-up order. Browse the promenade in the meantime.
Excellent burger, great fries, so-so service (which isn't that important at a place like this, honestly). We got there a few minutes before lunchtime, and it filled up quick. Santa Monica apparently is burger-central in LA, and HiHo is definitely worth a visit.
Ordered the Willie Mae single fried chicken sandwich; it is offered as a double too! The chicken has plenty of pickles, lightly battered, tender, & juicy & the French fries are just as delicious as the sandwich! I also keep hearing the hamburgers are one of the best & a must try.
OMG I wanted a snack and the fries are out of this world, wholesome, flavorful, melts in my mouth. So impressed… Definitely coming back for their burger
One of the best food spots for a quick bite right by the Santa Monica pier. The cheeseburger has very tender meat almost like melting in your mouth and the added sauce makes it better. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a good burger spot in LA. I would definitely go back again.
The burger and fries were perfect - I would recommend the spicy jam if you like a bit of spice. My only criticism is that they didn't call my name or let me know when my food was ready, so I sat around for around 10 minutes when my food was ready to eat.
As a vegetarian who doesn't like beyond or impossible burger, their burgers are the best!The fries and milkshakes are amazing too. The servers are fantastic and really great. I went their with my roommate a couple months ago and when we went again yesterday, he remembered us and made sure to check in with us which was astounding given that the place was packed! Definitely recommend this place to everyone!
I love coming here every time I drive down to Santa Monica!! The hiho cheeseburger is so delicious!! Worth it and highly recommend it!
