Opened in 1971.

This restaurant serves Chinese, Polynesian, and American food.

The building has been remodeled since its opening, but there are still many tiki masks (some appear to be Witco) and they serve tropical drinks.

Area code 508 was created on July 16, 1988, in a split from 617, the original area code for this restaurant, but otherwise it is the same number.

Opened October 11th, 1965.

This location appears to have thrived in the 60s and 70s and had several themed rooms, including the Chinese & Polynesian Room with a large bar decked out in Witco style decor, the Sayonara Japanese Room with a miniature city and fountain display (and a large buffet table), and the King Arthur Room (with steak and seafood menu options).

This tiki bar soft opened in San Pedro Square in downtown San Jose on Monday, December 13th, 2021. Opened to the public on Thursday, December 16th.

Located in the former site of Peggy Sue’s 1950s-style diner.

Designer Notch Gonzalez transformed the venue with thatched-roof booths, bamboo railings and blowfish lights hanging from the ceiling. There are tikis everywhere, including a six-footer that Gonzalez carved in about a week.

Notch hearkened back to classic tiki carver Milan Guanko with his own versions carved in the recognizable Guanko style.

They serve Dr Funk's namesake cocktail (of rum, absinthe, lime, lemon, demerara syrup, grenadine and seltzer) alongside 12 original tiki tipples and eight classics.

There is also a limited food menu with coconut shrimp, Hawaiian ribs, burgers, chicken sandwiches, etc...

This bar and restaurant appears to have been opened in the late 60s (1967?) and only flourished for a short time, possibly into the early 70s.

Many people, especially younger visitors, remember they had paddle boats for rent as well.

As can be seen in the pictures, they had a couple of large moai outside and at least two large tikis and at least two carved poles. The roofline is very distinctive and has stayed basically the same at this location and into the present (2021).

At some point this restaurant was re-christened as Pompano's (later as Pompano Key) and was open at least through 2018, after which it was closed and remained vacant, possibly awaiting land redevelopment.

The poles and carvings migrated to an Alvin's Outpost store in town and have been painted several times over in different color combinations. See last photo.

Opened in 1978.

There may once have been more tiki decor in the 70s, but today it has a fairly common bar/roadhouse interior with a pool table and karaoke being the biggest draws.

Still, they have a pretty cool exterior front roofline and vintage looking logo sign still in use.

Opened in Culver City in June of 1963.

Owned by James B. Wong and Po Yuen Chau. It was named Bali Hai after the hit tune from the musical South Pacific.

Served Cantonese/Americanized Chinese food and tropical drinks.

The decor outside resembled a tiki hut with bamboo and dried palm trimming. Inside, there was a small wooden bridge, which led to the dining area, the long bar and the performing stage.

Tropic Isle was also at this same address, from 1961-1962, so Bali Hai basically took over after it closed and utilized the already tropical build-out.

Bali Hai closed in 1969.

As of 2022, this location appears to be a Vans shoe store or adjacent to where the shoe store currently stands.

This bar & restaurant opened in May of 1951 but was only open for a few months on the Vegas Strip in what had earlier housed The Players, Wagon Wheel, and Bowery Club. It possibly became Murray Nort's Jungle Club. Later Jack Denison's Jungle Club. The building was demolished in the late 1950s.

The Mission Inn, now known as The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa, is a historic landmark hotel in downtown Riverside, California. Although a composite of many architectural styles, it is generally considered the largest Mission Revival Style building in the United States.

The property began as a quaint adobe boarding house called The Glenwood Cottage, built by engineer/surveyor Christopher Columbus Miller and on November 22, 1876, the Millers took their first paying guest. In February 1880, Miller's son Frank Augustus Miller purchased the hotel and land from his father. It became into a full-service hotel in the early 1900s. In 1902, Frank changed the name to the "Glenwood Mission Inn" and started building, in a variety of styles, until he died in 1935.

Miller's vision for the eclectic structure was drawn from many historical design periods, revivals, influences, and styles. Some are Spanish Gothic architecture, Mission Revival Style architecture, Moorish Revival architecture, Spanish Colonial style architecture, Spanish Colonial Revival Style architecture, Renaissance Revival architecture, and Mediterranean Revival Style architecture.

During the 30-year construction period, Miller traveled the world, collecting treasures to bring back to the hotel for display.

In the early 1930s, in the rotunda wing, Miller established a "Court of the Orient" which was a collection of Asian influences and lasted after Miller's death for a few years until 1939 when this section was re-imagined as the Lea Lea Room.

The Lea Lea Room had tons of bamboo, a bar, tables, a dance floor, a band area, and all the trappings of the pre-tiki tropical nightclubs that persisted throughout the 1930s to 1950s.

One detail that is hard to miss are the Chinese Tiles with Buddhist Swastikas in their centers. Of course, this symbol goes back thousands of years before the Nazis appropriated it.

In any case, around 1985 or so, the Lea Lea Room was eventually remodeled and it was thought fitting to return the space back to its previous incarnation as the Court of the Orient.

This bar/lounge, package house, coffee house, and motel appears to have thrived during the 70s, but was eventually wiped out after a few Florida hurricanes. Today, the memory lives on through the Pensacola RV Resort.

Shea’s Tiki House Motel became the place to be on Pensacola Beach. The Gulf side had a total of 45 rooms, a pool, and the famous Tiki Lounge. The Tiki Lounge was located underneath the rooms on the Gulf side (see picture) with the Gulf waters just steps away. On the Sound side the Tiki House had 24 units and a pool.

Opened Monday, November 6th, 1961.

This bar & restaurant ran throughout the 1960s.

There was a sister location in Boston as well.

There are moai mugs that list both locations on back. The mugs also list "The Hawaiian" in Boston.

This South Seas location is currently the site of Max's Oyster Bar, as of 2021.

This restaurant was located in Boston's Chinatown and ran from about 1958-1983. Henry Oi was the owner and operator there for many of those years. He passed away in 2015.

There was a sister location in West Hartford, Connecticut.

There are moai mugs that list both locations on back. The mugs also list "The Hawaiian" in Boston.

Opened in 1963 with the reputation of being the first upscale Chinese restaurant in Hawaii.

As one postcard proclaims: "One of the most beautiful Chinese Restaurants in the world offering superb Cantonese cuisine, graciously served in an atmosphere enhanced by fine art reproductions. Kuan-yin, the Goddess of Mercy, carved in 5 feet of rosewood, greets diners at the second floor landing of the restaurant and Waikiki's only indoor waterfall is presided over by the God of Longevity."

Raymond Hong took his restaurant chefs to China for training and they introduced Peking duck to Honolulu.

In its heyday the restaurant was the place for glittering celebrities and for ordinary people marking special occasions, looking to enjoy a multi-course Cantonese dinner over several hours.

Closed in April 2005 and eventually replaced by the new Outrigger Hotels & Resorts' Waikiki Beachwalk project.

Although not a tiki restaurant, most tiki restaurants at this time (and many today) served the same Chinese food and tropical drinks -- and House of Hong did have several drinks that came in ceramic mugs made by Otagiri.
