The Royal Hawaiian is the classic Southern Californian tiki resturant.

There are great looking, colorful tikis outside, although the southernmost one has been stolen (and not replaced and the next is showing damage. Nevertheless, happily there are still tikis in good shape outside.

I love a resturant that has tiki sentinels sending out mana 24/7.
The only other such resturants that come to mind are Tahiti and, of course, Trader Vics. Bahooka's has the right spirit, and an excellent mariner decor, with tikis and definitely deserves mention, yet it does not have tikigod presence on the outside.

My favorite location in the Royal Hawaiian is next to the patio doors (by the bathrooms) which offer an excellent view of the tiki garden.

I must commend the Royal Hawaiian on the quality of their cusine, particularly their specialty -- their spareribs.
Delicious.

Also, their prices are very reasonable
(read: cheap).
