All that was reported was that it is in Princeville. http://www.facebook.com/Chongolio What I found interesting was when I googled "tiki iniki", the trademark was registered to none other than Kauai resident TODD RUNDGREN! Okay, okay the chances of it being a classic tiki joint are very, very slim. But the chances of a Todd Rundgren joint being extremely weird are very, very good. Does anyone have any inside info? Aloha

Looking at the sites picture it looks awesome :D. We really need a Tiki lounge like this on the central coast. Why do all the good ones have to be hours or many miles away? :)

I would have been very surprised if the bar would be like that, done and all, if they'd open in a year.

Good call Virani, it is my Jungalero Lounge on the marker web page for Tiki Iniki but it is a photo taken by Trader Scott Kirkham. It is very similar to the Imbibe Magazine shot though. I've been chatting a bit with the Mrs. Rundgren (super cool, btw) and she has my permission to use the photo -also very flattered that she intends to use the Jungalero as inspiration for Tiki Iniki :) Been a fan of hubby Todd for as long as I can remember.

Cuz I had a few of those! I met the head bartender, Matty. TOP notch guy, I don't think anyone will be disappointed with the drinks when it opens.
