Seems like there is a high turnover, since I never see the same people twice. Sometimes we have good service, but the last couple times it has been silly. I do like that they throw parties and support Tiki Oasis. It is really cool that they have bands there and their Cat mug by Mulder is great! I guess what I'm getting at is I just don't think of it in my mind as a tiki bar. I agree -- it would be nicer if it had gone full tiki. But the bar wasn't originally intended as a tiki bar. As I recall, the tiki cocktail menu was originally supposed to be just a summer special. But then it was so well received they made the change permanent, and then added "Tiki Bar" to the name. But for me, it's easily one of the few go-to bars downtown.
