If you were in the Los Angeles area and could only visit one single tiki bar or restaurant for the best tiki experience in the whole city... what would you pick?

I'm recently engaged and me and the little lady are planning a honeymoon. I've been pushing for Hawai'i, but we really just can't afford it... so, we're going to CA. We're going to start in LA, so she can meet some of my friends and probably hit up San Diego and San Francisco, but I want to stop by as many tiki joints on the trip as possible. Knowing that she doesn't have the same tiki bug I do but is supportive anyway, I'm sure she'll want to go, but not to make it a tiki honeymoon.

So, long story long, what do all of you Tiki Centralites think? If we're in LA for about two days, what are the spots you absolutely wouldn't miss for anything, or what are the places we could go that are the most likely to give her the tiki bug?

This is a hurry trip and a honeymoon, obviously, so I didn't want to tack the subject onto a "best of LA" thread already out there. Thanks, folks!
