This was my second visit to SOS. The first was in 2019, I think. It's a smaller place, but the wait for an inside table wasn't too long for a Friday evening. I asked about a signature cocktail recommendation because I wanted something local and original, but the answer came back "the zombie and the mai tai are the most popular" which was strange, as they have the SOS Grog and the A-Ti-L Punch. :D I had both the Zombie and SOS Grog and they were tasty - but they have similar ingredients so they taste very similar. I rounded out my visit with The Goof, which is NOT the same as the Goof Punch as served at the Bali Hai. It has Jamaican rum, Nixta, and coffee and I liked it much more than I expected. I also had sips of the Pirate Republic (peppery!!) and the A-Ti-L Punch (an Agricole cocktail). The SOS isn't watering down drinks, nor are they batching drinks, and I appreciate that. I have to point out that the SOS can be loud. It's a small room with loud music and a lot of hard surfaces. Everyone is talking loudly to be heard, so it's hard to carry on a conversation.

Had to make a visit to start Inuhele weekend

During Inuhele, seated outside which didn’t have the vibe of inside. Still had a good time. Didn’t love their Grog, did like the Mai Tai and the Fool’s Gold

Went here on a busy Saturday night when I was in Atlanta for a conference. Had 6 people so got very lucky to have an awesome half circle booth overlooking the bar. The drinks on the menu were good not great, but I asked for a Jet Pilot (not on menu) and they made a really nice one. The whole group had a really fun night and although they weren't Tikiphiles they enjoyed the drinks.

Meetup before the Inuhele home tiki bar tour.

This was the last stop I made during the day of the 2023 Inuhele, so I had a few drinks before getting there. It was a great way to end the day but I need to return on a day where my memory will be more functional.
