Da Big Kahuna - Jacksonville Beach, Florida - Locating Tiki

Lauderdale Beach. I went up to check it out and it looked a lot like you describe. Nice Tiki window dressing (90% fiberglass and plastic, not wood carvings) and a good looking food menu but pretty sterile and generic otherwise. A couple of weeks ago driving up US 1 from Stuart I saw another Da Big Kahunas from the road and decided to stop and give it a try. Alas, when I walked up to the restaurant I discovered it was closed and had been stripped like the Jacksonville site. Maybe the closures are a corporate decision rather than a local one?
