Description:
Good little Chinese restaurant in Pacific Beach area that has a separate bar where they make tiki drinks. The menu has a colorful page listing their tropical libations: Mai Tai, Navy Grog, Zombie, Missionary's Downfall, Planter's Punch, etc. Most drinks are $5 or $5.50. Also have Volcano Bowls. The food is pretty standard Cantonese, but good. The drinks are tasty. Plus, this place is a nice respite from the usual crazy bar scene in PB. While no tikis on the premisis, most drinks come in tiki or related mugs. Bar has a thatched roof overhang supported by two large ceramic poles made to look like bamboo. I had both the Mai Tai and Planter's Punch and thought they were both pretty good.
