They have Tiki Sundays pretty much every Sunday & the drinks are exceptional. Also plenty of tiki mugs to serve from, too & a new custom mug coming soon as well. Trey is the guy passionate about tiki there, so if he's working, see if you can be at his end of the bar :D Pleasant Storage Room can be good, but we have found that some of the bartenders are very good, while others seem to be going through the motions & it shows in their drinks. Glad to hear that you got a good one. My only challenge for them is that they should be more consistent. Bar Congress will likely do Tiki weekdays again next Summer, but it's over for the season. But - they can still do GREAT tiki-style drinks & have tiki mugs as well. Atmosphere is less casual than what tiki folks tend to look for, but get a spot at the bar & chat with the bartenders - some very good people with some excellent drink mixing chops! Drink.Well is usually very good. They have had some staff turnover of late, which has ben a challenge. They are currently getting their new staff trained-up, so hopefully better next time. It's still one of the best places in town for a well-made cocktail. They Tiki Tuesdays are over for the season to my knowledge. The guys at Midnight Cowboy have some serious Tiki Drink Mixing chops, too, so most definitely worth checking out to see what you think. There's also a Tiki & Vintage event this Saturday. Unfortunately we'll be out of town for the weekend so will not be able to go.
