Aloha! Unfortunately, you aren't going to find any great tiki bars in Memphis. Hopefully, that will change soon.

Some folks refer to Automatic Slim's Tonga Room as a tiki bar/restaurant (83 2nd Street, right across from the Peabody Hotel). Honestly, it is a very loose association. But, the restaurant is actually more Caribbean with its influences and not in the category of what you would consider "tiki." The place is fun, quirky, serves delicious food and very potent cocktails. The service is up and down, but give the place a try.

By the way, there is an even better Thai restaurant around the corner from Automatic Slim's. Just in case!
