This restaurant, which is only open in July & August, is connected to The Tiki, a resort hotel. There are polynesian dinner shows nightly.

Opened March 13th, 2024.

Owned by Mario Rana and located inside the Park West Shopping Center.

This large space had many classic tiki elements, including lauhala matting on the walls, tiki masks, fish floats, and three kinds of tropical wallpaper (a leaf print, a tapa/aloha shirt style print, and a tropical landscape print).

They offered a full cocktail menu and served a rotating menu filled with Polynesian/Asian offerings.

Unfortunately, they were not able to generate enough business, so decided to close the location and re-brand it with an entirely different and non-tiki concept.

Closed January 25th, 2026.

The Coast Inn was built and opened in 1929.

The South Seas was established in 1936 as a pre-Tiki bar and most of its decor shown in photos below was in place by 1941.

There were actually two bars at the Coast Inn location. Part of the charm of both bars was that tropical aquarium fish tanks were used for the bar counter tops. The upstairs bar, known as the Tap Room, was quiet, dark and sophisticated. But the downstairs bar, called the South Seas, with its Polynesian atmosphere, invited customers to let down their hair.

The location, according to past owners, started with military servicemen and local young people, surfers, and more of a "straight" crowd, but began to see more and more of a gay crowd in the 70s until it became known as more of a gay bar by the mid 1980s. This coincided with a change of the name to the "Boom Boom Room" in 1978 by the new owner.

The "Boom Boom Room" shut its doors in 2007.

However, the Coast Inn endures as of the present time (2024)...

The Skylodge Hotel in Nadi, Fiji was built in 1960 and is a historic institution in the area.

It was once a popular hotel for families and young travelers.

Located 5 minutes from the airport.

Last renovated in 1989.

Now part of the Tanoa Hotels Group.

It appears that they have lost some of their tiki decor over the years, and may be a bit run-down, but there is still some of the original character left, even though the hotel is now seemingly eclipsed by more modern hotel options in the area.

This second Nalu location opened in Rehoboth Beach on April 9th, 2019.

It tilts a bit more to the surf than the tiki spectrum of decor with surfboard tables and Hawaiian wave mural walls, but no carved tikis in evidence like the original location.

The food menu is much the same as the sister location. They have a self-described "Pacific island fusion" menu with pad thai, tacos, burgers, and poke bowls leading the way.

The cocktails are served in tiki style glassware.

This restaurant ran from about 1974 to 1990 and was run by Peter Hom.

Served "Chinese and American Cuisine and Tropical Drinks".

Located at Route 3, Service Road East at Plaza Center in Secaucus, New Jersey 07094.

The South Seas was a Chinese & Polynesian fusion restaurant, similar to many others on the East Coast, that owed much of their decor to Orchids of Hawaii -- featuring a plethora of Orchid hanging lamps and a goodly amount of tiki masks both on the interior and exterior. It had a separate bar and a large open dining space lined with bamboo paneled booths lit by different colored puffer fish lamps.

Not much history to be gleaned on this location, but it appears to have been active in the late 60s - early 70s (at least as late as 1974).

Located in the Greenville Shopping Center at 835 Central Park Avenue (Rt. 100), Scarsdale, New York, United States.

Owned by John & Tony Eng.

Appears to have been active in the 70s and according to advertisements, as late as 1980.

This Chinese and Polynesian restaurant had a large bar with a mural of a Chinese junk (ship) on the backbar.

The open dining room was lined with booths and had table seating in the middle with traditional white cloth tablecloths. The dining room also had more murals of island scenes, several different colored fish float lights suspended from the ceiling, thatch, lauhala matting, and fake palm trees. And, a great deal of stonework inside and out.

As of 2025, this location appears to be inhabited by an AT&T store.

The Shameful Tiki Room Toronto originally opened in 2015 at 1378 Queen Street West.

Their final night there was May 27th, 2025.

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

Open since at least 2010.

The Splash Bar is the poolside bar at the Sheraton Princess Kaiulani, across from the Westin Moana Surfrider Resort in Waikiki, Honolulu, Hawaii.

The bar is decorated with tikis and artwork by Nick Kuchar (who was hired to re-brand the bar in 2017).

Winner of the Hale Aina GOLD award presented by Honolulu Magazine for Best Bar Food for 3 years running (2023-2025), Splash Bar combines great food and live entertainment, all in a convenient poolside setting.

Opened around 1952 by a Portuguese man, named Johnny Quaresma (known as "Johnny Christmas" by those who couldn't pronounce his last name and it stuck as a nickname) - the same person who started the Zombie Hut.

The Hawaiian Hut in West Sacramento was a well-established night club restaurant that was very popular in the Sacramento area. When you entered the night club, patrons were greeted by a glass-encased shrunken head. The restaurant was known for an activity in which patrons would race across the dance floor on three legged rocking horses. The senior Johnny Christmas sold the Hawaiian Hut to the Stathos Bros. and the club continued for several years at the same location. The shrunken head was part of the sale.

Partners Eric Rozestraten, Dan Herzog, and Kelly McDonald, opened the Easy Sailor Tiki Bar on Park Avenue in Rochester on Tuesday, August 26th, 2025.

The bar is a speakeasy of sorts with a false room at the front made to look like a travel agency with a postcard mural on the wall advertising Paradise just a short trip away.

The interior bar just beyond is well-named as it tilts nautical heavy and tiki light. However, aside from the thatching over the bar and the multicolored hanging swag lamps, there are also some tiki masks on the opposite wall.

More memorable "set pieces" include the fiberglass red octopus on the far side of the room and the fiberglass shark hanging further down the wall.

They have an original array of tropical cocktails and serve drinks in tiki mugs.
