The bar was getting sued and the waiver was now required. Seems like liability insurance might be the right approach. Telling me this story about how someone got beaten up(and thats kinda cool cause we didnt like him) and then trying to have me waive liability incase someone didn't like me too seems like a hard sell.

I ordered the Vietnamese fried chicken sandwich and wow it looked a little dry and presentation it was actually packed with flavor and delicious. It came with the option of regular fries, garlic fries or onion rings. I opted for the other rings and wasn't disappointed at all. I think probably one of the best parts about this was that lunch with drinks came to under $20 which is something I haven't seen in a while. Great value in a lovely atmosphere. Definitely worth the short trot

I ordered the Mango Michelada, and it absolutely did not disappoint. Our waiter was also fantastic, very attentive, friendly, and kept checking in on us throughout the night. If you're in Solvang and looking for a fun late-night spot with good drinks, music, and great service, High Roller Tiki Lounge is definitely worth stopping

Of course, everything comes served in a fun cup with a photo worthy presentation. The gentleman that served us was helpful and our service from him was great. I removed 1 star for the younger person who was behind the bar when we left and were trying to pay. To start, he seemed annoyed by a large group that walked in and was deciding if they wanted to stay. It also rubbed me wrong when he was loudly talking with someone at the bar about beliefs that might not be considered kind to some potential customers. Overall, didn't ruin the experience as it was a small part of it, and I would still recommend visiting this unique spot!

Came out barely warm and the meat quality was poor. Ambiance: Very cool decor and patio looked awesome. Inside temps began to get uncomfortable as we were leaving as there was no air flow. Overall a little disappointed as I saw this place got such good reviews but I will try it again and order something different.

I'm not sure if they do this all the time, but the server gave us some glasses of prosecco for a birthday toast. That was a nice touch. Service was quick too. I hope to have the opportunity to dine there under the stars again some other time. It was truly a memorable experience.

Staff are very friendly, helpful, attentive, and professional. The food was amazing! Everything was fresh, vibrant, and flavorful. The starter scones were delightfully warm and flaky. We had a memorable nectarine salad which captured the sweetness of summer. There were mixed dietary needs in our group. The restaurant was able to accommodate a vegetarian/vegan diet. Highly recommend this great restaurant!

My wife and I came here and it was our first time, I can say this inside was absolutely beautiful. This place is not only a great date night, it's gorgeous, it's well put together and that I can say was absolutely great. The service: the service was OK, one thing that is hard is when there isn't as many people there at the moment I do expect the service to be just a little bit better only because you do have the opportunity to pay a little bit more attention to individuals and not a lot of groups. I do feel like it took a while to get back to us, and even when trying to explain things to us, it felt like one of the people that was helping us didn't really know what they were talking about, wasn't really informative about the menu and wasn't really personable. They weren't rude, just not really personable, especially to people who said it was their first time. That is a big deal to us and that plays a bigger part in why it's hard for me to wanna come back. The food: we had two items on the menu, it was the peppers in the shrimp. I do feel like the peppers were very, very lackluster. They really had nothing special to them. You would think that there would be just a bit more of the seasoning, the garlic would be spread out all over, and there might be something else on top to give them a bit more of a flavor. It was a pile of garlic over in the corner of the plate and the peppers didn't really have much of them, they were just peppers. The shrimp was decent, I liked what was on top of them. I just feel like there was nothing special to it. I feel like there are so many rows you can go with grilling them or adding a bit more to them in the plate. It just felt like you got four garlic on a plate with a sauce on top and they were slightly soaked. The fried chicken sliders were absolutely wonderful, that was my favorite part. Honestly, if you could do those à la carte and put three on a plate or maybe even four depending on how hungry you are that would be just a phenomenal dish on its own and their fries were absolutely great. Overall, I feel like there are some things that can use an improvement. I see the potential and there are a couple other things on the menu that I wanted to try, and I want to convince myself to go back and give them a try. it's just hard when that is your first impression. Do I think it's worth giving it a shot? Yes but do I think they can do better as well yes
