TL;DR- Great bartender, really nice upscale tiki adventure, a little expensive and staff could be a little more friendly.
The tiki bar to take a nice date or your parents to! Went on a Friday evening just after opening, seating was easy and the hostess was nice. The decor is really nice and clean, a little more 1940s tropical than tiki but it had a really nice cohesive feel to it. I'd say it fullfilled my personal escapism requirement for a tiki bar!
The bartender was GREAT! Made a show of the Curse of Lono I ordered, and I appreciated that it came flaming and in a mug (most tiki bars opt for glassware to keep cost down) the drink was tasty and balanced, and my friend's (non alcoholic, which it turns out cost extra.. go figure..) Pina Colada was also tasty and well made!
The thing that knocked it down a star is the price point, and the staff member, who I'm assuming was the manager, killing the vibe by taking one of our menus and generally making us feel like she hoped we left soon.. just put a negative spin on the visit at the end..
Such a great tiki spot. Fun and laid back atmosphere. Awesome staff. Food and drinks were amazing. What a great place to add to my birthday weekend merriment! Felt like a VIP! Will most definitely back back!
I had the best time at LONO the Bartenders and Waiters were so friendly and social. I definitely plan to make this a regular spot to go to for amazing drinks, I cant wait to try the food the next time I go. Such a great vibe.
