The bloody marry topped with a burger is awesome. Not a gimmick, burger and drink each stand up just fine on their own, but when combined together, plus shrimp beef jerky and picked veggies. It's a full meal on/in a glass. Good service, mellow tucked away spot. I was here a few years ago and enjoyed it. Came back today and I enjoyed. I will come on once whenever I'm in seaside. Recommended for sure.

We love coming here when we're in town. The owners are always so nice. The food is yummy but we're definitely sucker's for the pudding shots and jello shots. We encourage everyone to support this small business while visiting Seaside.

Big Kahuna! Yes, the name says it all, and the owner operators, Debbie serving, and Cliff, cooking, are wonderful hosts. They have an easy to follow menu, with wonderful choices of hamburgers and beach town comfort food. I had the 1/4 burger, it's the same as the 'Big Kahuna Burger' only without the Kahuna fixings... I'm on a diet... so next time. They also serve homemade pork cracklings... and they are hot, and good... very very good. Wash them down with a soda... in a large cup. It's in a great spot on Broadway Street, a wonderful atmosphere, comfortable to sit, relax, and watch the tourist. I'll be back.

We dropped into Big Kahuna hoping for an inexpensive lunch in Seaside and really enjoyed the experience! The staff was attentive and friendly and the food was delicious! We ordered the clam strips and fries and enjoyed every bite. Our daughter got the 1/2 pound burger and ate the whole thing, rare for her picky tastes. And the staff was totally chill, happy to let me photograph other people's orders and chatty! Loved every minute!

This is the aftermath of a very yummy Swiss melt! That and a large portion of fries made for a good lunch for me and the bacon cheeseburger and mini cheeseburger filled up the wife and kiddo. A couple oyster shooters started off the perfect lunch to follow up a few hours on the beach!

We love this place! The previous owners were always really mean, but the new owners are so nice and they've worked so hard during the pandemic. I can always trust this place for a delicious lunch (and a drink, if I can swing it!) The food looked so good I forgot to take a picture BEFORE we dug in

I rarely get out anymore, but I had an excellent time here. The Big Kahuna Burger was absolutely fantastic and the service perfect. Super nice place and owner, we definitely need more places like this here on the Oregon Coast. Kudos to everything you're doing! Cheers!!
