You have to have to have to go here. Skip the El Charro hype and eat here for breakfast or lunch. Do not complain about the loud music. Don’t go or wear earplugs if you are going to be irritated by loud music.

Great atmosphere and food, beware long waits on weekends, but if weather permitting enjoy the live music on patio for Sunday Brunch. Matt Mitchell is the greatest guitar player in the world, and at night if you can find Naim Amor...do that!

One of the few original (old) tiki bars in America! As opposed the a (new) tiki revival bar. Therefore they are not tiki bar enthusiasts and don’t know how to make anything spectacular like what you’d expect from a Martin Cate joint etc. The owners/operators have probably not even been to one other tiki bar in the world. But GO and have a pain killer or Hawaii 5-O. Those are my go tos there. Go see it and imagine it back in the day when the music and drinks and dining were all right! My grandfather opened this place and back when I was a kid all the lovely waitresses were Filipino and I thought they were Hawaiian 😀
