Purists may object to the sports on the TVs over the bar or the faux tiki torches.

or the faux tikis.
They are all spraypainted styrofoam.
but talk with most any tourn. they say,
aaah. THIS is what i come to Waikiki for! a REAL tiki bar.

True, it is neo-tiki in decor. However, there is a large Ku also present.
Even though it might be too kitsch even for me, and that is saying something, I do think it is a legitimate tiki bar - and a bar - and one that some could find more "comfortable" or less intimidating than the others.
