Islands is actually a fairly large chain in southern california (where all that is good and bad in hamburgers come from) and they make pretty damn delicious burgers and Mexican-American food, especially for a "theme" chain restaurant.

For some reason it's not as popular as it used to be, which is a shame :( I think it's tough for them to compete against the heavily saturated advertising of Chili's, TGIF, Outback that sort of thing. They're kind of in a weird spot with tough competitors, even though they're way better in terms of the actual food they make.

They're probably resisting the pressure to serve food out of microwaves and bags, and paying the price :(
