I am grateful that the BOT is mentioned as inspiration, too, as that is often dropped under the table, but of course it would have been more beneficial if they mentioned Tiki Modern. Yet I have to admit that that would be untrue, because this place is much more an example of a classic Tiki bar as shown in the BOT than a modernist or edge-of-good-taste Witco Tiki bar. Looks like the publicity may have helped as Tony is wildly popular. And he does great work too. Not many, or any articles mentioning tiki in Ohio, Or any where. Wonder how many tiki artist fire was put out by living in areas that get no coverage.
