Love this place. Got me going back to Chinatown. The only bad thing is that they have to get rid of the attitude of hurry up and finish your drink, here's the check. Here's your hat what's your hurry?
Skull and Crown Tiki Bar boasts a laid-back atmosphere with fantastic drinks that perfectly that isn't over the top as most tiki establishments are. The pineapple right-side-up cake was a delightful surprise, adding an extra touch of deliciousness to an already enjoyable experience. This spot is a must-visit for a chill vibe and tasty cocktails in Honolulu.

I'd give the atmosphere six stars if I could. Very cool tiki bar. Great, strong tiki drinks. Food is provided by really good Thai/Laos restaurant next door.

Amazing tiki bar! Clarified Crystal Skull was so unique and delicious and the Dagger Mai Tai was perfect! The staff were so personable and drinks came out quickly despite complex recipes.

Was in Hawaii for a few days and decided to come here and we had a great time! The service was excellent. I really wish I remembered the name of our server but she had short hair and was superb! Would definitely recommend this place. The food is good but it’s more like tapas sharing plates than a full dinner so keep that in mind. The nacho Rangoon specifically was tasty!

So good I went back the next night. I’m only in town for four days but for two of my dinners I had at Skull & Crown. The food is next level good as are the cocktails. The service is excellent. The vibe is very friendly. I’m not a huge fan of egg plant, but the Misoyaki Egglant made me a believer. So good and so flavorful without the slimy soft texture. I can’t wait to go back and I will be dreaming of the Trader Noa’s Old Fashioned and Taboo cocktails until I do.
A must go. The food and drinks are carefully prepared. A true art! Best food and dining expert I've had, anyway, in a long time.

First, the drinks were amazing. Best tasting and heftiest drinks in the area for sure, highly recommend the Dagger. The food came quickly and paired very well with the drinks and atmosphere. The service was very quick and they were extremely friendly. We had called the bar because we feared losing the reservation (we were searching for parking), and the host not only assured us we'd be fine, but they helped navigate us through the parking nightmare that is Chinatown. Definitely coming back, recommending to everyone! 10/10Dietary restrictions: Before even ordering we were asked about allergies and dietary restrictions.Parking: Parking was terrible. There were a couple of lots/garages that were full to the brim.Wheelchair accessibility: No steps, definitely a wide enough spaces to pass

Cutest spot! Our servers Xenia and Tina were so sweet and gave the absolute best service and recommendations. The place was dimly lit. We had the shrimp ceviche and the Neptune's harvest. Both were amazing but omg the broth in the Neptune's harvest was to die for. The ceviche is served with shrimp chips and I liked how it had coconut milk(?) in it. Also had a Mai Tai that was legit. Def recommend coming here!!

I really enjoyed my time at Skull and Crown Trading, and look forward to going again! We went around 7:15pm on a Friday night, so we were very lucky to get seats at the bar. It is a small place, so I would recommend reservations on Friday and Saturday nights. We were greeted by Christopher, who took excellent care of us; he even chatted with us and answered all our questions. It is a tiki bar, and I think that's what gives it its fun personality. They paid a lot of attention to decor with many cool antiques. Even a piano for live music Saturday nights. The drinks are impressive and the food is good. I definitely recommend the Beef Skewers.
