I've never even heard of this place...I'm thinking they must be fairly new. They're located at Mockingbird Station where there are a bunch of shops and restaurants. I was there last Friday after I left Coconuts and must have totally missed this place. Definitely worth checking out.

:drink:

Well, sadly another psuedo-tiki bar has kicked the tiki...
I was in the Big D last week and tried to visit Ollie and Lei's, but some bar called "Spike" (or something like that) has taken over the space. I was just a little too late because it had just closed two days before my attempt. Ah well...

In a related note, I tried to visit the former site of the Trader Vic's across the street in the old Mockingbird Hilton (now the Santa Fe Hotel) and the arshole behind the front desk wouldn't let us in. However, we could see in through the windows and it looks pretty tiki-philic. It isn't normally open but you can apparently rent it for events.
Not a big fan of Dallas, but for that I am jealous! Seattle just tears down old tiki bars for condos and builds new ones for the new yups moving in...
