Hula's Modern Tiki - Scottsdale
Scottsdale, Arizona, United States
This is the second location of Hula's Modern Tiki, the first is in Phoenix (opened 2009 and re-located in 2018) and a third is in High Street (2020). This Scottsdale location opened in early 2014. True to its name, the look of the place is sleek and tiki-lite. The main room has several large carved plaques by Tiki Bosko on the back wall, and a large tiki by Tiki tOny stands out front.

Cape FM – 8 June 2021
Came here after trying Hula's high street. Very similar experience [A completely fine place overall, but felt like a T(iki) G. I. Fridays to me. A lot of WITCO style art, but the place is very bright and has more of a sports bar feel. Nobody there working or drinking at the bar seemed to care about Tiki bars or drinks. If you were really craving a tropical drink then it would be good, but any Tiki purist can skip without regrets.] Only this time I noticed the music more: Lust to Love by the Go-Go's was playing. Good song, but if you want an immersive Tiki experience this isn't it.
Tried the zombie at this Hula's. 6/10 - too sweet and fruity juicy - none of the classic Zombie spice and depth. Rums were bland and couldn't cut through the other ingredients, which is probably what most people want who come here. I think they used Bacardi.
