David, the decor is very tastefully done. The place isn't that big, it has kind of a neighborhood vibe to it but there's enough going on decor wise that it feels like a getaway. They have some Witco pieces including a Viking ship, hanging lamp and fountain, there's some carved tikis by Amate and Aloha Texas Tiki, a thatched A frame behind the bar that guards the regular customers tiki mugs they've brought from their collection that they are served in when they come, the walls are covered in matting and one whole side has images paying homage to tiki temples of the past. There's a couple peacock chairs and rattan sofas. It's not too kitschy or over the top. Menu has a mix of classics, reinterpretations and originals. I really wish there was a place like this in Austin. It's 2 and half hours from my house but I've been there more times in the last year than I've been to all other bars in Austin combined.

I'm sure there are pictures if you search Lei Low here. I'm pretty sure I posted some a while back.
