This is the "Balinese room" which was a big gangster bar in the 40's and 50's. Word has it that Sinatra sang and gambled there more than once. It recently got bought and it looks like the owners are putting a few shops in the front, along with a museum, then a tiki bar/club in the back. They recently opened the museum which has a lot of "tiki" decor for sale. I told them they should get a mug designed for the place, so we'll see. If they create a web site I'll post the link. Here's some history on the place:
