Islands Restaurants was founded in 1982 with a basic philosophy – serve great, fresh food with friendly service in a fun atmosphere. Entrepreneur Tony DeGrazier had a vision of a restaurant that would offer a simple, original menu featuring gourmet hamburgers, specialty drinks and a fun, tropical theme. In fact, he wanted to recreate the dining experiences he had in the 1960s while stationed in Oahu with his Navy buddies.

Islands was an instant hit - we ran out of food the first night at our West Los Angeles location, and we’ve been building a loyal following ever since. Since that first night, we’ve been slowly expanding and building upon our success. You can now find 42 Islands Restaurants throughout Southern California and Arizona. Over the years, we’ve added a few more burgers, served too many baskets of our fresh-cut fries to count, and perfected our salads and soft tacos, but our commitment to you – our guest – hasn’t changed.

Associate Retail Marketing Manager

Organizations that manage money, payroll, credit, or compliance all face the same risk: tax authority exposure changes after decisions are made — and most teams don’t have visibility. By the time an issue surfaces, options are limited and consequences are already in motion.

TaxRock exists to eliminate that blind spot.

We provide continuous monitoring of tax authority activity across businesses and individual portfolios, giving organizations early visibility into changes that materially effect risk. Our customers include: accounting and advisory firms, payroll providers, lenders, and other compliance-driven organizations that cannot afford to rely on point-in-time checks or reactive workflows.

TaxRock combines real-time integration with AI intelligence to detect and surface changes— enabling teams to act early instead of explaining surprises after the fact.

This is not practice management software.
This is risk intelligence.
