Just returned from The Tonga Room's happy hour and buffet.
Herewith my unabashed review--be aware that I gave the discount
password on the way in, so they knew I was drinking and dining on
the cheap.

OVERALL---An excellent evening, definitely justifying my expressed
desire to keep The Tonga Room in operation.

DECOR---No huge tikis, just a comfortable South Pacific feeling with
even some sailing ship tackle and of course the pool. Basically red walls
seemed fitting. Thunderstorms as fine as ever.

SERVICE---Friendly and quite conscientious without feeling oily. . . . Best
waitstaff I've encountered in a while.

(Note on tipping. My tab after discount and before tax was $15.68.
Knee-jerk 15% tippers would have tipped about $2.35. I left five
dollars, because the price was exceptionally low for what I got, and
the service was quite high. I hope that any of you who patronize
happy hour will consider doing something similar.)

Good review, Big Tipper!
