Description:
The Mah Jong. Looks like one of the many Chinese restaurant that embraced the Tiki movement at its peak.

I have found a few images over the years that show the story line.

A nice rendering of the building - shows potential with the stone walls, outrigger beams and Tiki torches.

A standard looking Chinese restaurant entrance.

Then the transition to the Tiki/Polynesian/Luau scene.

They added the Aloha Room and Bamboo Cocktail Lounge.

Here are some photos from the postcards

Distinctive style to the Tikis that were carved for this place.
