Wow! I never had so much fun and felt so much love in a bar before visiting this one!
We had so much fun on Friday night that we had to come back Saturday night too.
Bill even lined us up with special parking for our motor home.
We were treated like 3 kings and queen at this bar. From the minute you walk in, you know you will be in for a rare treatment of hospitality!
On our first night the place was packed due to a birthday party. Javier, ( bouncer/server/sometimes bar tender)Welcomed us in and looked around until he found us 4 bar stools to pull up to a table, a little bit later he had us move to a lovely table in a corner where we could see everything going on. Mike came up next to welcome us, and once things calmed down a bit Bill came out from behind the bar and hung out with us till we left.
The decor is really cool and as Lake Surfer stated has some of his very fine tikis and just tons of things to look at. The guys really did an excellent job of decorating. I noticed something different each night we were there.Tikis happily mix in with tropical themed items and pirates type items. It's really a fun mix.
OK, lets get on to the drinks. They are so delicious! I think we tried at least one of everything they offer in the way of tropical drinks. Each one was very smooth and tasty! This is a very hard working bunch of people who really care about you having a good time. The drinks are garnished well with fruits and little trinkets. I came home with a purse full of monkeys, elephants, mermaids, sculls, skeletons, and glow sticks that either hung on the edge of the glass or went into the drink. The fresh mint that they grow themselves was great too. Fruit garnishes could be pineapple slices, melon slices, strawberries, lines,mint,and probably other fruits I am forgetting.
Come little bit early and look around and grab a good seat. Starts getting pretty packed from 10:00PM on.
In short, if you can possibly make it to the Rendezous--GO! you won't regret it. I know they would love to meet any TC'ers who can stop by.
Here are just a few pictures. it is just a wee too dark for my crappy digital camera.
