Editorial Review for Tiki Ti – by Shivon V. Tuoni
In Short
This little shack is big enough to fit a few tables, a bar and some barstools. You'll hate that fact if you get there too late and have to wait for people to leave, especially since folks rarely want to go anywhere else. The inside is crammed full of tiki decor ranging from shellacked blowfish lamps to a fluorescent fountain with water dripping from a skull onto Buddha's head.

Went to this place for the first time over the weekend and it was awesome. I've always liked good drinks that are STRONG and this place delivers. The place is small and has regulars galore, so get there early if you plan on getting a seat. It's standing room only as it gets later, and there's a line outside Fridays and Saturdays. (Not sure about other nights). The drinks are not cheap, but they are worth the price! For once. There is not any food, except a tub of bar 'snax', and they only accept cash. The crowd inside is socialable and fun. The decor is great and theres a lot of things to look at. The bartenders are friendly and have tons of stories to share. Oh yeah, and also the bar is owner-operated so smoking here is allowed. That will probably turn off a lot of non-smokers, but as an ex-smoker I wasn't bothered in the least. I miss this place already and am looking forward to going again.
