Wiz, John-O did a good job of clarifying my disagreement of your remarks
as the article refers to the "Best Tiki Bars" and not the best drinks.

In a perfect world we would have both, but in reality if you walked into any classic Tiki Bar in the 1950s
the drinks would not be near to today's cocktail standards, and while I always appreciate a great cocktail
this is not why I am interested in the Tiki Revival, it really is all about the history, vintage aspect
of returning to an earlier time, when bars were much cooler.

I concur with SoCal Savage's take on what constitutes a good Tiki Bar, which is in line with what I have already said.
The Bahooka was a magical place that served atrocious cocktails & food, But we jumped on every opportunity to go.
