A group of us on our way "up north" stopped by Psycho's on the 13th of July. It happened that we arrived before the place opened and the early staff were busy doing all the early staff opening things.

Neverthless, the back tiki garden was in great shape and the staff was extremely helpful offering early drinkeepoos (bottles only, fellas) before the bartender came on duty. We were fortunate to be able to "open" the bar and what a great place ! It is most certainly now on my list for the "fly-in date dash" outing with a steak downtown at Ruth's Chris and a ride to Suzi's for mayhem.

The jukebox has Sinatra, Don Ho, The Clash, and the Angry Samoans - which is just great ! [ Steak Knife is my favorite from college]. Neverhtless, despite the exotic music selection - the motif is 100% tiki and laid back. While the jukebox is pure vanity, the bar is all business.

I had a suffering bastard that was the best I've had in years. Mybe it was the "warm up" on Red Stripe and maybe it was the weather just right for drinking ... but the place was awesome.

The staff was helpful, pleasant, and attractive in a tiki bar kind of way.
