Tangaroa Terrace is a casual dining restaurant at the Disneyland Hotel, with a name inspired by the Tahitian Terrace and Enchanted Tiki Room in Disneyland. It opened in May 2011. The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and is near the more elaborately-themed Trader Sam's Enchanted Tiki Bar. The offerings have island flavors, including a papaya slaw and a pineapple-teriyaki burger. Made-to-order meals are ordered via a video kiosk, and there are also some grab-and-go options. There are some tables indoors, but most of the seating is on an outdoor patio. Exotica and traditional Hawaiian tunes are played.

Paradise Club (or Club Paradise, depending on which sign you read) has been under the same ownership since about 1991. It has gone through at least two name changes since its opening in 1954, when it was first known as Gene Kamp's Island Home. For a while it was known as Gracie Dee's Sneaky Tiki.

Lauhala matting is used throughout (and the bar appears to still have its original ceiling treatment) but the tiki/tropical vibe has been toned down over the years.

Drinks, once selected from the single tropical drink menu on the premises, are served in tiki mugs. They are known for their original, called the "Banana Spider".

The bar reportedly has a bit of a dive bar feel, and caters to the area's robust Polish population.

Opened in 2016.

This Asian inspired restaurant has a cozy and classic lounge feel with its black tufted booth seating and tufted red chairs throughout.

Tiki decor is sparse, but there are some very well-done hula girl murals (although one or more might actually be better recognized as Art Nouveau paintings by Alphonse Mucha -- such as "Summer" with red poppies in her hair) on the exposed brick walls.

Behind the bar are a couple of Gothic style alcoves with small carved tiki statues instead of Catholic saints.

They feature a rotating menu of classic and signature tiki cocktails which have received rave reviews, and are served in tiki mugs. They do have a unique signature tiki mug created just for their location as well -- "Big Poppa" by Tank Standing Buffalo and Tiki Farm.

Hale Pele is a tiki bar in Northeast Portland, opened by Blair Reynolds, who ran Hale Pele until 2016 when the failure of his second bar enterprise (Americano) forced him to sell his share in Hale Pele to Martin Cate and step away. However, Blair Reynolds has another claim to fame in the world of tiki mixology: his line of flavored syrups sold under the name B.G. Reynolds which is still thriving.

Hale Pele opened in late August 2012, in a space that had previously held a tiki bar named Thatch. At the entrance, you cross a bridge past a small water feature, and are greeted by a large, sunken bar -- this allows seated bar patrons to be at eye level with their bartender. Behind the bar are a trio of large cannibal tiki carvings, these originated at Portland's Kon-Tiki and also lived for many years at the Jasmine Tree. At the very back of Hale Pele is the elevated Chieftain's Hut, a semi-private large booth, which can be reserved in advance.

The drink menu focuses on both classic tiki drinks and new creations. The bar has a small kitchen, so food is available in addition to the drink menu.

Opened July 13th, 1961.

This was the flagship restaurant in a chain of Kona Kai restaurants, with locations in Chicago and Kansas City. It was in the City Line Marriott, at the start of the "Golden Mile" of hotels in Bala Cynwyd.

Created in a ‘not to be outdone’ competition between the titan hotel empires, Marriott commissioned this as the jewel in an elaborate chain of its own Polynesian themed restaurants. As a shot across the bow to Hilton’s Trader Vic’s and Sheraton’s Kon Tiki, The Kona Kai was arguably the most obscenely extravagant of the challengers on the field. No expense was spared and rather than utilize stock or simply procured décor for its outfitting, practically every decorative element of the Philly location was custom designed and created. Wall treatments, tropical carpeting and signature figural Tiki carvings were all fashioned from tailor-made blueprints furnished by the prolific architects.

The Kona Kai Frigate Bird from the front roofline was carved by Southern California tiki artist Jim Casey. Jim’s work is quite recognizable and can be seen in other venues such as Aloha Jhoe’s and Pacific Ocean Park. Aloha Jhoe's had a very similar frigate bird in front of their restaurant.

The hotel closed in 1985 and was demolished. However, many of the carvings were saved and ended up in the collection of Jordan Reichek. Jordan later put up these pieces for auction at La Luz de Jesus Gallery in Los Angeles, CA in 2017 where they were purchased by Mark Sellers, the owner of Max's South Seas Hideaway in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and incorporated into that bar and restaurant where they can still be viewed in all their tiki glory.

Opened in 1965.

The Islander in Westport, Washington, was a premier marina front destination for fishermen, surfers and beach goers alike. With wonderful views of the fishing fleet of the Westport Marina, the Olympic Mountains, the vast Pacific Ocean and an awesome surf spot, the Islander was a favored getaway.

It was during the 60s that the motel advertised a dining room & coffee shop, 31 ocean view units, a large heated pool, and a Bamboo Room with dancing. See vintage flyer below...

In other ephemera and on swizzle sticks the Bamboo Room is called a "Tiki Room".

At some point this Bamboo/Tiki Room was remodeled...and all signs of tiki removed...

Neddie Rose Farrington, a legend in Westport, ruled the Marina from The Islander Resort for many decades, overseeing dozens of charter boat captains, countless fishermen, and many a wayward Karaoke superstar. When Neddie was ready to retire in 2004, she turned to a local land developer who was giving his best shot at updating Westport's tourist economy. The restaurant was remodeled and given a new name "The Half Moon Bay Bar and Grill" and the site underwent design and permitting to be redeveloped into a boutique hotel project. In 2008, the project was placed on hold when the regional, national, and world economic markets went into a tailspin.

The Islander was purchased in 2015 and re-opened in March 2017, under the same original name.

However, a fire in April of 2020 caused around $250,000 damage to the site.

After re-building and re-modeling, the site was re-christened as the Saltwater Inn and is currently in operation as of 2025.

Tiki Point is a Moai statue looking out over Courtyard Hollow, a small part of the Grand Lake o' the Cherokees in the northeast corner of Oklahoma. Information on the tiki is sparse, but it may have been created in 1967 by Earl Suttle, who once owned the land the tiki sits on; it has since been split up into smaller residential parcels. The moai is easily seen from the water, but it is unclear if it is accessible from the road. It is not actually on Number 6 Lake Road, but probably nearer to one of the side lanes that turn south off the road -- most likely S 604 Lane -- but it may be on private property.

Opened Tuesday, March 8th, 2022.

Famous chef and restaurateur Guy Fieri’s “Downtown Flavortown” restaurant is located on The Mountain Mile in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.

The 43,000 square-foot entertainment destination centers around a 300-plus seat restaurant, showcasing Fieri fusion cuisine like his bacon mac ’n’ cheeseburger and Trash Can Nachos.

It has a 14-lane duckpin bowling alley, 10,000 square-foot arcade, full-service tropical Tiki bar, and a photo opportunity with a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro similar to the one featured on Fieri’s hit show “Diners, Drive-ins and Dives.”

The bar itself is set up as a thatched rectangular island with bar stool seating on all 4 sides. There are also 5 thatched roof booths opposite and plenty of other open seating throughout.

The signs on the thatched roof of the main bar just say "Tiki Bar" and have a couple of small tiki masks and a third larger tiki that is recognizable to most tikiphiles as the mascot tiki from Forbidden Island in Alameda, CA (originally designed by Tiki Diablo).

A "Caliente Margarita", "Tattooed Mojito" and "Guy’s Famous BBQ Bloody Mary" are on the craft cocktail menu but you can also get traditional tiki cocktails like the 1944 Mai Tai, Jet Pilot, and Rum Barrel.

Tiki Farm manufactured 4 unique mugs for the bar to start out with, modeled after carved tiki poles in the restaurant. These are for sale on premises for $45 each.

This establishment touts itself as Rome's first tiki bar.

Camillo Affinita and Alessio Esposito (along with their partners Alessandro and Marco) opened up Makai in November of 2016.

They feature a signature mug and other barware made by Maka-Tiki as well.

The South Seas Tiki Lounge was a tiki bar in Charleston, South Carolina, opened in July 2017.

The small space had outdoor seating, with an interior lounge. The menu included tropical drinks and small plates.

Owner Jonathan Buckley (owner of the nearby Scarecrow & Co.) is a longtime tikiphile with a large tiki mug collection that was displayed in the bar.

They received rave reviews for their cocktail program and seemed to be doing vey well. However, on January 3, 2019, South Seas posted on Instagram that they were closing up their Ann Street spot, which included both the tiki lounge and sushi bar.

Their IG caption read, “Thanks Charleston, it’s time to wrap things up here and move our Tiki Collection to a New City."

Buckley later stated that the section of the building they were in was always defined as a space for semi-permanent pop-ups and that the plan was always to eventually close down and move to a new location outside of Charleston.

Snowbird Tiki Bar opened on April 7, 2017, in Montreal's Little Italy, in the space that used to hold Cafe International.

It closed in late 2018, but re-opened in what had previously been known as Idole Bar.

The new space has stone, brick, and some green-painted walls, with float lights, and lots of vintage pieces in the decor. The bar incorporates some elements from the now-closed Jardin Tiki, including tables and chairs that were originally at the Kon-Tiki in Montreal. There is a large tiki that came from somewhere in Ontario.

They continue to add more and more to their decor, including a number of vintage hanging lamps over the bar.

There is also outside seating.

The Shameful Tiki Room opened on November 17, 2015, and is in the Parkdale neighborhood of Toronto. It is the sister location of The Shameful Tiki Room in Vancouver, B.C., which opened in 2013. Both locations are owned by Rod Moore.

The bar has a capacity of 70 people, and has a semi-secluded raised "Christian's Hut" area, in tribute to the historic Christian's Hut in Southern California in the 1930s. Classic exotic cocktails and pu-pu platter items are available, prepared and presented in the traditional style. The soundtrack is a mix of Exotica and surf.

On April 25th, 2025 The Shameful Tiki Room announced through social media that they would be changing locations. Their final night at 1378 Queen Street West was May 27th, 2025.

They re-opened just down the road at 777 Queen Street West on June 9th, 2025.
