Decor leans heavily toward surf/beach culture, with several pieces by our own Bamboo Ben inside and out. TiPSY factor is low (1 concrete tiki outside, an OA (I think) door handle, and 2 Maitikis behind the bar), but lots of thatching, plus a nice collection of pufferfish lamps suspended from the ceiling in one corner. The food is burgers and sandwiches, with the unfortunate name of the #5 being "Cheeseburger in Paradise." The only other nod to Buffet culture is a big wooden parrot hanging from the bar, so I won't quibble :wink:. Seating was mostly chrome-based barstools (not very conducive to relaxing with a cocktail or three), and only a couple of booths, although there was a climatized outdoor deck with plastic chairs, as well as a little patio.
