This short-lived location of the Don the Beachcomber restaurant chain opened in a Sheraton Hotel in 1970 and lasted for a few years before closing in 1973. Legendary bartender Tony Ramos, who had worked at the flagship Hollywood Don the Beachcomber, worked here when it opened.

After Don the Beachcomber closed, the spot housed an El Torito restaurant, and in 2006 the space was a Mediterranean restaurant called Alfiere.

The Tahitian Lanai, and its Papeete Bar, were located in the Waikikian Hotel, right on the beach at Waikiki on Oahu. They opened on October 1, 1956. Spence Weaver, of Spencecliff Restaurants, operated the restaurant, and Bob Bryant, founder of Tiki Bob's in San Francisco, was hired to manage the restaurant.

Bob Bryant said of the Waikikian and Tahitian Lanai, "Before leaving the Mainland for the first time, everybody has his own dream of what Hawaii and Tahiti will be like. In designing this hotel-restaurant complex, we tried to fulfill those ideas. We tried to make this a 'dream Tahiti' instead of just a duplicate of the real island."

The restaurant housed 40 tikis, including a large Marquesan that was purported to be at least 200 years old, and a number of black velvet Leeteg paintings.

Diners could sit poolside surrounded by tiki torches, in private huts named after Tahitian Royalty (like the Queen Pōmare IV Hut or Prince Hinoi Hut), or in the main dining room.

The Waikikian closed in 1996, and the items from the hotel and restaurant were sold in an auction that took place at the Tahitian Lanai.

The Waikikian Hotel, right on the beach & lagoon at Waikiki, was a long-time touristy institution on Oahu. The Waikikian housed the Tahitian Lanai restaurant and Papeete Bar; all three opened in 1956.

The hotel is instantly recognized by its unusual lobby, a dramatically stylized A-frame fashioned from a massive hyperbolic paraboloid, designed by architect Pete Wimberley. Much of the decorative carving and other touches were from Edward Brownlee. The grounds also included tiki-spotted gardens, and the lobby housed a gallery of black velvet Leeteg paintings.

The Waikikian closed in 1996; in December 2008, a 38-story timeshare opened in its place as part of the nearby Hilton Hawaiian Village complex. The new tower is called the "Grand Waikikian."

The original Disneyland Holiday Inn was on the southeast corner of S. Harbor and W. Katella.

Construction began March 6, 1968.

It was home to a Dobbs House Luau (one of several locations).

This Dobbs House Luau housed a Polynesian Room (Kapena Lanai, with decor supplied by Oceanic Arts) and a Ship's Lounge. The Kapena Lanai later merged into the Pirate's Table restaurant on or about April 4th, 1969, when it was publicly announced in the Santa Ana Register.

Most recently, this property was home to a Red Lion Hotel but that appears to have closed permanently in 2021.

Kon-Tiki dates from 1955 and still has some great details from the period. Rather than being a tiki bar, it was inspired by the famed Kon-Tiki voyage; the exploration's logo is used as the logo of the bar. The Floss Bar is connected inside.

Closed briefly for a couple of months in 2016 but re-opened under new ownership.

Although the Kon-Tiki looks much the same as it has for the last 60+ years, as the new signs proclaim, it is now one of the first legal weed coffee shops in Zurich. You can buy four different strains of cannabis at the counter — Lion Haze, Orange Bud, Purple Bud and Kon-Tiki Kush — and smoke your purchase in the large upstairs lounge. However, by law, their cannabis can contain no more than 1% THC, so may be less potent than some users are expecting.

Tropical Bistro took over a space in a strip mall that was previously a rather typical Chinese buffet. It had many connections to the Kahiki Supper Club in nearby Columbus, which closed in 2000. The owners were Ngo and Soeng Thong; Ngo was a general manager at the Kahiki, and Soeng was a chef there. The Thongs tracked down many former employees for their new restaurant, including the Kahiki's Executive Chef, Mickey Cheung. Tropical Bistro still felt much more like a Chinese buffet than a tiki bar, but there were Orchids of Hawaii lamps from the Kahiki, monkey pod tables, and even a few tikis.

What Tropical Bistro was able to offer was the same food and drink menu as the Kahiki. Drinks were served complete with dramatic dry ice, and in tiki mugs. Those who missed a particular drink or dish from the Kahiki were excited at the arrival of Tropical Bistro.

Over time, with the help of dedicated locals, the Tropical Bistro built up its tiki level (including the addition of a scaled-down replica of the Kahiki's famous signature tiki fireplace).

Tropical Bistro closed for "minor remodeling" in January 2008. The closure was supposed to last for only one week, but Tropical Bistro never reopened.

This cartoony tiki bar in San Jose opened in 2005, and closed in early 2010. Smoke Tiki was a smokehouse, and served dishes featuring their own smoked meats. The restaurant had lots of tikis, some carved of wood, others (like the outside tiki head) made of metal, and a large metal palm tree at the indoor bar. Had a large back patio with its own bar. Its loud music and lighting were more suitable to a disco than a tiki bar.

Opened in the early 2000s.

This small tourist town in south Norway held this tiki bar, which was surprisingly rich in details like tapa cloth and bamboo despite the scarcity of such items in the area. The bar's hours fluctuated seasonally based on the presence of tourists in the town; the main season is summer and winter is the off-season.

It appears that some time after 2014 that the tiki elements were stripped out in favor of a modern dance club interior.

There is another Tonga Bar still operating as of 2023 in Bergen.

The Papua New Guinea Sculpture Garden was created by the Cantor Arts Center in 1994, when they brought several artists from Papua New Guinea to carve tikis on-site. Several dozen tikis, carved poles and figures are carved from wood and stone, and sit in a wooded area on the Stanford University campus.

Lotus Garden was an older Chinese restaurant with a few tiki details here and there. The entryway featured a waterfall with a stream that ran under a small bridge; the bridge's railing posts were some nice wooden moai. The bar had some nice bamboo details, and drinks were served in tiki mugs.

There appear to have been a few locations under the same name over the years.

This Greenwood location closed June 30th, 2021 after 40+ years. The restaurant reopened in April 2022 at a new location -- 7327 N U.S. 31, Indianapolis, IN 46227. However, it appears that it opened with new chefs and a completely different menu, retaining only the name.

The Bamboo House began its life in 1965 as the Outrigger Restaurant.

The Outrigger closed in 1976, but was soon resurrected as Bamboo House.

The indications are that the place had retained much of its tiki charm. The building was a very tall A-frame, with very large lamps hanging from the ceiling.

Bamboo House was demolished on December 15, 2009. One of the exterior tikis along with an exterior mask went to a local museum, The Exploration Place, (shown with curator below and as part of their installation).

The Outrigger was opened by Jack Lee in 1965, with a tall A-frame roof, lava rock exterior walls, a tiki support post near the entrance, and lots of bamboo and tiki masks inside.

It closed in 1976.

The building lived on for many years as the Bamboo House Restaurant with much of its decor intact, until it was bulldozed on December 15, 2009. One of the tikis and a mask from the restaurant's exterior went to a local museum, The Exploration Place, (shown with curator below and as part of their installation).
