Went down to Pasadena from Orange County for lunch. What hasn't been mentioned is that the restaurant is split into two sides: One for burger meals and the side exclusively for cheesesteak meals. We ventured for the cheesesteak waygu section. Overall, I wasn't disappointed, as for the cheesesteak wages burger, also a side of crispy tallow chip fries to go along with the meal. It was more than sufficient for the price, although people may complain about it, but in the end, you get what you paid for, especially in the flavor and quality of the meal. We arrived a little early, before it opened with a small line formed. Waited roughly 15 minutes before ordering and getting seated. I suggest getting here early to avoid the crowd since it gets really busy around 12. Parking is available in the street, and didn't have any trouble looking for a spot. As for service, the owners for too kind for giving us water and even a parasol while waiting outside in the line. The weather was nice in this mid-March experience in dinning. The atmosphere was a tab boisterous but tamed, with the restrooms located inside the restaurant the back. I would definitely come again, perhaps try out their burgers next time around!

Can't believe Pasadena finally has its own HiHo. There's a lot of hype around this place and it's been busy every time I've gone, which is already three visits in. I can see why people either love it or hate it. Yes, the burgers are on the smaller side and yeah, it's a bit pricey for what it is, but I've been really enjoying it lately. They specialize in Wagyu beef smash burgers, and so far I've tried the HiHo burger, which reminds me of a classic double cheeseburger with mustard, and the Big Matty, which gives Big Mac vibes. I've also had the chicken tenders sandwich, and it honestly reminds me of Korean fried chicken. Crispy on the outside and juicy inside. The space itself is pretty small with limited seating. You order at the window and then find a seat, which gives it that casual walk up burger stand vibe. What I'm really in love with are their beef tallow fries. I actually enjoy that slightly soggy crispiness and they're super addicting. Overall, this spot definitely hits the spot. Just be prepared for a wait because it's pretty popping right now.

Dropped in here for lunch despite seeing mixed reviews. Glad I did, because this is one of the best burgers and best meals I’ve had in a long time. The burger was tasty and really held up. The fries were crispy and tasted great. And maybe the best part was their banana cream pie in a cup. Everything was so good. Not sure why ratings are not higher, but I guess the moral of the story is don’t believe everything you read.

Finally checked out Hiho this weekend. Came by around noon on a Sunday. No lines for ordering. Half of seating open but not shaded. A few inside tables opened up after a few minutes. I got Hiho and hubby the Big Matty with fries. Pros: - quality patty, very juicy and flavorful. Was literally non stopping dripping the entire time - I love their pickles wish I ordered extra - grilled onions were delicious too - tallow fries extremely crispy - quick service. Our food came out about 12 minutes so better than I expected based on other reviews here Cons: - from the double wagyu patty, to tallow fries, everything is so unctuous. But half way through felt a bit heavy. Especially the fries felt overly greasy - because Wagyu, they didn't really flatten down the patty as much as traditional smash burger. So missing the crispy edges and smokiness I usually love - I didn't love the matty sauce like other reviews. Was a bit too tangy for me, just a personal preference Overall it was a high quality burger but I couldn't eat this more than once a month... this for sure is heavier and more of a treat than regular smash burger.
