Nice tiki-restoration of a 50s bar. High Tipsy factor, including large tikis behind the bar and against the wall by Crazy Al. I also like the Volcano room, with the Volcano and the rattan furniture and faux palm trees. The verdict is out on the MaiTai. Although I did like the Seafoam, I did not approve a blended drink being served in a Martini glass. Both would have been helped by being served in a tiki mug. However, I do like the umbrellas. My suggestion: Invest in your own tiki mug (or just select one out of TikiFarm's catalog) and sell it with the drink. Otherwise, byo tm, and keep it there like Tiki-Ti or the Voodoo Room. The jukebox was mixed. It played exotica; it also played far more 70s rock and, yes, very loudly. |
