Dirty and not a dive bar. English is barely spoken here. It is a migrant bar and disgusting. Definitely will not be back.

This place definitely has something else going on. They charge $17 for every drink, cash only, and theres something up with the girls that work here....

Rude bartender they don't serve well here. I literally had to wait a while to get another beer. It seem they treat the older customers better. Their pricing is sus, so don't stay long

This is NOT a dive bar.
They don’t have well drinks they measure all drinks with an electronic pourer and it’s $17 for a drink.
The staff are not allowed to drink and the atmosphere reflects that.

Nothing even close to a Tiki bar as presented in the articles. Walked in and walked out.

The bartender was worried about her Boyfriend! Not only that I had to withdraw cash! The bartender didn't pay attention to what they were doing when it came to closing the tab. Asked who I thought was security to help with my tab. Dont don't go if you have the option or chance. I will not be returning. Do not respect me or to busy eating.... my bartender had a red dress eating pizza the whole time I was there.....talked about me in Spanish but I am fluent in Spanish.

What I thought was a dive bar absolutely wasn’t. Overpriced measured drinks, my beer was warm. Even though I’m not a tourist this bar is not tourist friendly. Most if not all the bartenders do not speak English or know how to make any drinks that consist of more than 3 ingredients. In order to hear music you have to play the jukebox. Although the women are beautiful you can’t interact because all they know in English is how to count money. The manager Mike however ensured I had a great time. It’s sad that all the women in this city they always manage to get the imports. I will stick to beer if I come back.

Not tourist friendly. Terrible service. Neither bartender spoke English or knew anything beyond very basic drinks.
