In Search of Tiki in Washington, D.C...Georgians on the Hunt - Tiki Travel

Although the food - especially the fish is pretty good, and they do serve some tiki drinks, and they do have some tiki carvings, overall the feel of the place is too Caribbean for my personal tastes, and there were too many beer promotion signs (and TVs) hanging in the bar area. Worse of all, their mai-tais had that cloudy orange look and taste to them. Perhaps things have changed in the year or so since I have last been there. Mango Mike's can be a fun place to visit as a neighborhood get together type place, but it is hard to recommend as a tiki destination for an out-of-towner. How I miss the Honolulu! Vern
