Islands Restaurant

Where to start?  First thing, the restaurant was a bit crowded which is o.k. I don't mind waiting.  I asked the hostess if they served the lunch special with the burger, endless fries, and drink refills on the weekend.  She said "I don't know but we do have endless fries".   What first line employee says "I don't know" and makes no effort to find out?  Second, I asked if there were tables rather than booths because I cannot be comfortable in a booth.  She said no, unless I wanted to sit in the free seating area.  Now, I am a big woman, o.k., I'll say it ... fat, and if I wouldn't be comfortable in a booth why would I want to attempt to jump up into a high barstool? I asked her if there was a way to pull up some kind of regular chair to a table and she said no.  No effort, just "no".  I understand it was busy but I was willing to wait to be accommodated.  But, "no".  I was becoming visibly upset and decided to wait outside for my god-daughter, she had dropped me off because I am disabled and she went to park the car.  When she got there she could tell I was upset and went in to talk to the hostess.  She asked the same questions about seating that I did and then asked what they normally did for a handicapped person.  She (hostess) said they had a table to pull a wheelchair up to.  Guess what?  Not all handicapped/disabled people have a wheelchair.  So are fat, older, disabled people not welcome at this Islands?  I have never had this problem at other Islands and I will NEVER go to this one again.
I am only giving one star because I have to in order to make a rating/comment otherwise ... zero stars!

Nothing special about this islands that differs from the many others I have eaten at. Service here is good, food is good, and wait times are ok.

My family really got either here or to the one on Colorado. It all depends on traffic and if we need to run errands in the area.

This location can get really busy at times. But definitely an ok place to eat.

*Happy hour review*.

Happy Hour is Monday-Friday 4-7

Came here with Stephanie V to hit up their happy hour and boy was it decent! They do have a selection of beers and decent well drinks for $2.95. Other Island's might have difference price, but this one is cheap!

If sitting at the bar tables, make sure you don't trip people, because a bit tight. If you're sitting at the bar, you are better off with full customer service. I've seen a few people bringing their books and laptops here. Must be nice while working and having a drink on the other hand. :)

Tried their fries before, don't expect much out of the fries since Island is known for their burger. Their fries baskets are really big. Even the two of us couldn't kill it. It's big enough to share up to 4-5 people. Friendly bartender's and well poured drinks. Yes, i will continue to come here when I'm in the area.

TIP: Free wifi at the bar using Panera's wifi. Sh... :P
