C'ville is my hometown and I didn't know there was a tiki bar. The closest reminents I could find was "Ming Dynasty" It was formally "That Steak Place" in the 70's and even today it has the bordello red velvet wallpaper. There is a tiny bar in it and the bar has some tiki mugs but that is it. You can't drink in the bar; it simply stands as "Ode to Tiki" So I thought the trip was over but then I found out The Cavalier Inn had a tiki bar in the 70's. By the way the Holiday Inn turned its restaurant into a Red Lobster and now it is Days Inn. The old Days Inn is the new Holiday Inn. Welcome to my confusing town but no tiki in it today.
