It's not tiki, but many drinks are served with sorbet floats as garnish, rose petals, and exotic fruits. Their Pear Sour is incredible and they even have a Vesper on the menu (think James Bond). The bar snacks include frittes, a rabbit pate and an insane twice baked spinach. In West Seattle, the West 5 is a snappy little joint as wide as a couple of bowling lanes. They post three tiki drinks on the menu including a Mai Tai and Dark and Stormy--I believe. Their Mai Tai is slightly sour but has a hint of cherry and almonds and is served in a tiki goblet (with a great logo swizzle stick). Try their Mac & Cheese, meatloaf, strawberry shortcake. The bartender expressed great interest in hosting a Mai Tai event--might be a good place for a Soggy Tiki in Seattle? :)
