While the Tiki spirit still prevails, this place is sadly run-down. The food was just tolerable and the drinks were, well, I'm spoiled now from mixing my way through the Grog Log so it's not a fair comparison. The waiters still wear Hawaiian shirts and say "Aloha!" and hand out plastic leis. But the palm trees have lost their fronds -- they have a post-hurricane look -- and things look dusty and uncared-for. I fear for the future of this once-magical place, and I will still return regularly. I suggest you do the same, if only to look at that rock wall and dream about what once was. The pictures already posted are way better than mine so I will only offer a few.
