I don't think that San Leandro bar is around any more, but the East Bay is now a mecca of tiki bars:

Forbidden Island
Conga Room
Trader Vic's
and one or two others I'm not recalling at the moment.

Forbidden Island is a must-visit. It's the best tiki bar in Northern California.

If you're interested in taking a plunge into the tiki deep end, I recommend visiting Swanberg's on J for the Tiki Farm event in September in Sacramento (check the California Events section) AND attending at least the East Bay Tiki Crawl 8 (CA events again or the banner ad at the top of the page) in October. Both should be great and will give you the opportunity to meet some interesting people and sample interesting drinks.
