This place has great drinks - strong, tasty, and visually unique! The service was good. They don't have food, but serve snacks (we got pretzels). Reservations are HIGHLY recommended and you will most likely be turned away if you don't have one.

We’re not sure how this bar gets away with $20 drinks that taste like paint thinner- maybe this is a niche place… we were hoping for a good old fashioned tiki bar and this was a dark, unwelcoming, slow service bar with quiet music, don’t get your hopes up!
Uggg, so disappointing, couldn’t read menu, difficult menu you have to read long diatribe of words to get to what the drink actually is. Poor Lighting adds to the frustration. Not a lot of seating.

This place is the real deal. Legit tiki bar, serving top-shelf tiki drinks, and doing so in an iconic location. Ryan is the man.

Drove out to Palm Springs for a weekend getaway from Phoenix. Was told that we had to check this place out. Walked in without a reservation but they were able to seat us. Loads of drink on the menus, I always like to check out original cocktails. I had one that had rhubarb as an ingredient, I was intrigued and absolutely not disappointed! I believe it’s the Rhubarbie. Spirit forward and sweeter than I’d expect from rhubarb. My wife had an espresso martini riff. Excellent drinks and atmosphere. Will be the first stop next time we are in Palm Springs. The bartenders were super nice!

Amazing and intimate Tiki experience! A must-see for Tiki afficianados! Andrea the bartender knows her stuff and she mixes up tasty and perfectly proportioned cocktails. Each cocktail is made from scratch. We had a classic 1934 Zombie and a Rumrunner. Both hit the spot! There are several Tiki bars in Palm Springs but this one is pure Tiki without the kitsch. Reservations are a good idea since seating is very limited.

The hostess was incredibly rude when she realized we didn’t have a reservation. Despite several tables being open and not having a “reserved” sign on them, she refused to seat us and then proceeded to ignore us. Would not recommend purely based on the staff.

Close quarters. Pretty warm inside. Like the red light vibe. Drinks were OK. Would possibly go back but it wouldn’t be at the top of my list.

Brian was a fantastic bartender. Super friendly and gave us the best food recommendations while visiting town! The happy hour specials were a bargain. Will definitely come back when we visit again.

Not sure how this place has any 4 star reviews. Drink was terribly sweet. Not what was described on menu. Server was extremely disinterested in working…. Another group walked out and yelled “thanks for shitty drinks and shittier service”. That sums it up.

Stopped in for a drink before dinner. A nice little classic tiki bar with very good drinks.
Really good place to hit for tiki. We went to 3 of the Palm Springs tiki bars and this is the best one by a decent margin.
