Sharkeez:

The Hermosa Sharkeez is located at the end of Pier Avenue, which lately is party central for the beach cities and usually has a line to get into the place. It has tikis, but is a lot like you describe the Santa Barbara. Both are more surf themed than tiki themed, have poorly made tropical drinks, all of which taste like a margarita. Hermosa gets the younger fake-ID crowd, Manhattan the older crowd. The food is pretty decent, such as the lobster burritos which are quite tasty. The drinks are mediocre, and despite the tikis at Hermosa I would not describe either as "tiki". A decent place to go to lunch by the beach in the middle of a stressful workday, though, if you can afford the time.
