My friend and I did not order any food or appetizers, but our drinks were excellent. She ordered an old-fashioned and I ordered the drink. I saw another patron order. I thought it was frilly and looked appealing. The drink was very tasty and had a kick to it. We went on a Friday night and the service was a little slow but not unexpectedly so. We found a corner spot and had a great time talking and catching up. The inside is very comfortable and cozy with an artistic arrangement of abstract and colorful art that transport you to a different place. I’m looking forward to going back. Prices were very reasonable.

I love tiki bars and try to visit as many as possible while traveling and just had to stop by. The drinks were deliciously amazing! Binny and Hillary provided great conversation. This world needs more Tiki bars! Highly recommend!

I was there on a Thursday night. Not too big of a crowd. Drinks were delicious! If you like Pirates of the Caribbean this is an upscale version of that! We arrived close to closing time so only had time for one drink. Will definitely be back next month!

This place is a hidden gem! We came here by chance, and the place is as charming and cute as it gets. The main bar is on the upper part, but they have a speak easy bar downstairs. Really nicely decor, and they have an amazing selection of cocktails specially Rum based ones. The place seats small and large parties. It’s certainly a super cute place for a date night or friends get together. The service was amazing on the main bar.

Update: Still one of my favorite go to spots. The staff is great. The drinks are great. Their rotating specials are an awesome way to bring a little extra excitement to the place. Great merch. Just overall an excellent place to be. Original review: Absolutely the best bar in town. Tiki-Ko is a full immersion experience, from the drinks to the decor and more! Their tiki theme definitely supports their name. Tiki-Ko is on the smaller side so if you arrive when it’s busy, don’t be surprised that there’s a line. Hop in line and wait as it’s not too bad and it’s worth it. Drinks are a little more on the expensive side but fear not, there’s plenty in them and their flavors will transport you to a relaxing island somewhere beautiful. The bartenders are top notch. They are super friendly so don’t be afraid to strike up a conversation with them. They’re also excellent in their craft. Be sure to catch their sister bar on the weekends, The Sinking Ship, a few doors down. It’s all the same great things in a bigger space with a nautical/tiki theme. The rotating drink options and cool swag definitely add to the experience too! Also check them out for their fun seasonal offerings. Just don’t take my word for it, check it out for yourself and enjoy! Cheers!
