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.

My friends and I went here for lunch and drinks on New Year's Day, and it was just lovely. The service was amazing, and the fries and grilled cheese I split with my wife was absolutely standout. The bread was precisely crisp and buttered, and the fries were perfectly seasoned.

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 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!
The couple that owns this little restaurant are so sweet. They are fast at serving and checked on our table a decent amount of times. The food came out quickly and we are a family of 6! I was even more impressed with how flavorful my burger was, (mushroom swiss) and the fries were super fresh and delicious. Everything about this place was a 5 stars.
Thank you for serving us!

We would have been good paying and good tipping customers but we didn’t make it far enough to even look at the menu. We went in to grab a menu and the lady at the counter got mad at us and told us we couldn’t have our dog in there which we totally understand and we were just in to grab a menu and go back outside. Grabbed the menu and then my husband got yelled at for having a non alcoholic tea outside and went off about how she has a liquor license to uphold and blah blah blah. Literally all she had to do was give us a glass to pour it in or politely say no outside beverages. We are both long time bartenders in Portland and respect the service industry more than most people but this lady’s delivery was so rude and made us feel criminal. Luckily one block away we found a fabulous restaurant that we really enjoyed and were treated very well so we can thank this persons terrible customer service for finding something better.
Little hole in the wall place. But with a BIG FLAVOR !! Kid friendly... Excellent oyster shooters. The fresh flavor is sweet to the taste ! The Chowder is thick with a SMOKEY savoring taste that keeps you coming back for more... Crab cakes... Were DELICIOUS... Full of herbs and tasty Crab bites... Highly Recommend checking this place out...
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
