If you’re looking for the perfect tropical escape without leaving town, Pau Hana is a must-visit!
The drinks were absolutely top-notch! Creative, colorful, and packed with flavor. Every cocktail reminded me of our honeymoon in the Caribbean.
The food was a pleasant surprise too! I strongly recommend the wings and make sure to get the full plater of sauces; they're delicious! If your not a fan of onions, double check on what additional ingredients are in some of the dishes.
The atmosphere was exactly what you’d hope for in a tiki spot: laid-back, fun, and full of tropical charm. In addition, the staff was very friendly! They were attentive without being overbearing and genuinely seemed to enjoy making our experience a great one.
Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to unwind with amazing drinks, tasty food, and a welcoming, vacation-like atmosphere. We'll be back to finish our punch card!

We stopped in to grab a couple of drinks to finish out our night and ended up really enjoying our time here! The decoration adds a nice touch and the menu is huge with so many choices. I appreciate the quick reference per drink as to which alcohol is the main ingredient. I'm not a huge fan of rum so having so many other choices was great! Next time we'll definitely want to try out some of the food menu too.
Our drink choices of the night: Painkiller, Moana, Caribbean (not so short shots)

Super chill place to drink and talk or whatever you have planned for the night. Me and my friends walked in and had a great time. The smoking hot Russian bartender was the best to look at all night.

The premiere tiki bar of the western suburbs. Hard working, attentive bartender keeps the sweet drinks flowing. Delicious food. Wooddale entertains again! 🏝️

Best Shishito peppers I've ever had! Great drinks, great ambiance. Surprising little Tiki getaway. Come try their drink menu- there's options for days!

So Welcoming. Our humble group of three were able to talk privately but ended up chatting to the owner and bartenders. Drinks were better than some top restaurants I've dined in!!!! One drink on their HUGE menu is literally award winning back in the 1960s. We will be back. Thank you for a wonderful night...we were there for only a couple of hours!! ❤️

The drinks and food were delicious. The atmosphere of the restaurant was also very spot on for a tropical/Hawaiian theme.

Amazing experience! Service was amazing, and if I’m being honest, INCREDIBLE. Staff was so sweet and attentive and don’t even get me started on those drinks, IMPECCABLE. Make sure to stop by! A Wooddale must!

Let me start with the reviews for this place are Beyond misleading. We are one of 8 people in this place on a Friday night. Bartender turns up the volume of the music and the owner comes out and yells at her in front of anyone - very professional. We ordered two drinks and wings. Drinks were fine, nothing special nothing to brag about. SIX wings took over an hour to come out (prepared by the owner) would hate to see if this place ever had even 5 tables order food at once. We made the mistake of ordering entrees as well, DRY orange chicken and an overpriced sweet rice bowl. Our waitress was very nice but unfortunately I’m not quite sure how this business is surviving, but steer clear.
One of the top places in the area. You can’t go wrong here from the drinks to the staff. All certified beauties. Some amazing food with the best wings in the area! If you want a tiki bar that is the top bar in the area, this is the place!
Great service and great drinks! Owner and bartender Max are amazing! Highly recommend coming here for a quick drink on your way home from work

My girlfriend and I live in New Hampshire and came to this bar and had a great conversation with the owner. We think about this bar very often. We are planning a trip to fly back to Chicago just to visit. Cannot say enough good things about this. The owner is very personably and even made us fries just because he was hungry

GREAT tiki drinks... They use all natural ingredients...so good. Owner is super cool making for a great experience. And they have gambling machines! Haven't eaten the food but we're looking forward to it.

Randy is amazing, he’s one of a kind. His place is an absolute vibe. Nothing crazy , comfortable and relaxing and Randy is an amazing host. The bartenders have great personalities and are very attentive. For what it lacks in size Randy’s Tiki Bar makes up for it with good drinks, great company, amazing staff and overall quality. Couldn’t recommend a better HOME bar anywhere else. It sure feels like cheers when you walk through the door.
