Food & drink: (4/5) We got the Cajun tots to share with a side of ranch, which I think they make in-house. The tots were just the right amount of crunch and savory-ness. Exactly what I needed. To drink, I got the triPPPy cider and I really enjoyed it! The fruity notes aren't as strong in this one compared to other ciders I've had but it was still great. Finished it all. Service: (4/5) Super friendly. Just wish our food came a little faster. There weren't many people sitting in and our tator tots took maybe 30 mins. Other notes: Not exactly sure how the parking situation is still since we got there at 10:30pm in the pitch dark. We ended up at the parking lot next door and wandered over until we found it. A little confusing but I'm sure there's a better way to get here.

I'm confused, did I get my food from McMenamin's Wood Shop or a high school football concession…read morestand, or maybe the movie theatre kitchen? I was extremely disappointed with this place. It's a cool atmosphere, waitress was kind, service was alright, but the only thing that stood out was the surprisingly low quality of my food. I don't usually order a chicken tender meal, but theirs was located at the top of the menu and it had a buttered up description, so I gave it a try.... And then I regretted my decision as soon as I saw my plate. Frozen chicken tenders, dirty grease fries, and watery coleslaw. All for $25. It was unreasonable. It gave me more of a $8 Dairy Queen chicken basket vibe, but I don't want to diss Dairy Queen. I'll pay $25 for Queen before I return to McMenamins. Would love to see McMenamins take a step up on this so they can give their guests an experience more pleasant than mine.

Parking can be a wee bit tricky so waking, ride share, or public transit will be your best options. But if you have to drive we found a paid lot a few blocks away While this wasn't the best tiki bar we've ever been to, it did stand out for the presentation of drinks, the cool (and massive) octopus, the immersion, and overall vibe is nice and atmospheric They have four non-alcoholic options which I really appreciated as the one driving for the night! They also have standard as well as unique takes on tiki drinks. We were surprised to find so many options with vodka and tequila which isn't common in a more traditional tiki bar We had the: - "Kiki Premier Mai Tai" which wasn't as rum forward as we would have thought, especially given how many rums it had in it; but overall it was a classic style Mai Tai and tasty with quality rums - "One Eyed Willy" which has a fun presentation in a chest with smoking dry ice. This one you could taste the rum more and overall it was a really enjoyable drink and experience - "See A Light" which is a non-alcoholic option and the taste was just as good as the presentation. Came in a lovely angler fish tiki mug with the light and everything! The taste was complex and something that thought went into creating - "Four Boys" another non-alcoholic option that was the coolest visual as it came in a "steaming" crock pot. The taste was very unexpected, in a good way, and is a drink I would get again Overall the drinks were about a 4/5 but with the charming atmosphere and whimsical presentation it's a 5 star experience that is just fun

First and foremost, you need to make a reservation. I did end up needing to move my reservation up because of scheduling but it worked out and the staff were really nice about helping me. This is a speakeasy inside Rumba, I did not know that going in. It's incredibly cool to walk into the bar. The decor is amazing. It's super small though with a few tables and bar seating. It was kinda loud when I was there since most tables were filled. My server was nice as well and was able to answer all my questions. Ambiance was exceptional and is such a cool place to visit. Most of the cocktails came with fancy show of some sort and were extravagant - and equally delicious. I got The Inside Passage, but there were at least three others I was trying to chose from. There was a lot of thought that went into the presentation of each of the drinks and I love that attention to detail. Since it was around dinner time I did want to order food and drink. They did not have the Kikisoba (they ran out) and that made me sad, but I was able to order the Rumba sliders and a basket of fries. I'm not a huge sliders fan, and I did order the caramelized pineapple on the side. The sliders were incredibly flavorful and the perfect size. For anyone wanting to visit Seattle, I do highly recommend this place. It's a really cool vibe and the food is really good too.

My only complaint is that the burgers are pretty consistently undercooked. I placed a phone order today and the person said they came well done. The burger was very rare in the center and I wasn't able to finish my burger. I also ordered a burger for my grandmother and hers was very undercooked as well. This is very disappointing when the expectations were well done burgers. My advice would be to say it twice to make sure it cooked and maybe have them cut it in half so you can check in the restaurant. Overall a great bar, but just be cautious when eating food.

The tablets for entering your info and song run terribly slow. Bathrooms are clean and well-stocked, though not labeled well--women's restroom is straight down the hall, men's is to the right just after the photo booth. Unless they're meant to be unisex, but I don't think that's the case? This place is PACKED wall to wall after 8pm Fridays and Saturdays, and I've never dropped in those nights where it wasn't an upbeat and pretty cheery vibe. When I say packed, I mean that you should wear an outfit where you can take off layers, because it gets WARM. On the weekends the song queues can get LONG but you're able to manually check where you're at in line via the tablets. If you wanna leave before 12am, get there and put your song in no later than 8pm. Expect a $5 cover on weekends, too, though sometimes it's $10. Which is crazy. And yet, I still pay it... People are super nice and if you aren't bringing a posse out with you, a lot of folks don't mind you sitting with them at their tables if it's busy and they have an extra seat open. A lot of times people will get down by the stage and dance to songs people are performing, which is just the best when it happens. All in all, the Hula Hula crowd tends to have a great mindset for karaoke. All about having a good time to good music.

If you find yourself in the same boat (haha, get it? see what I did there? boat ... same boat .. because we were in a boat ... No? Ok, nevermind, moving right along ) ... I recommend you check out Navy Strength, a cute tropical themed bar in the Belltown area of Seattle. We actually came upon them by accident when heading to a local musical event nearby but we were definitely taken to that tropical head space, just sit back, relax, take in the ambiance and music, enjoy a drink and feel the motion of the waves .. or was that from the drink, either way, highly recommend! Being a big fan of the Twin Peaks tv show, my wife was taken by the novelty of a drink called "Fire Walk with Me" and, between both presentation and taste, it definitely didn't disappoint on either level. We didn't think to check the food menu at the time but in hindsight, they look to have some good options worth going back for. They have a Jackfruit slider that can be made vegan. In addition, they have nachos which can be made vegan as well. I reached out to ask about this, instead of vegan cheese, it's prepared with a house peanut sauce, sounds intriguing to me. Last (that I noticed) they have Smoked Almonds and also Marinated Olives, both labelled "V" for vegetarian but I can't imagine what might keep them from being vegan, worth inquiring further on that.

My friend ordered a dirty martini from the waiter, Collin. He rudely and condescendingly informed her that it was a rum bar. When she told him that she saw gin on the wall. He again responded with condescending tone that they cannot make a dirty martini because they don't have olives. We asked for more time to think about our decision. And we contemplated leaving because he was so rude. However, we had been driving for 4 hours and really just wanted to unwind and have a drink so we ordered martini espressos, a pina colada, and some "monkey" drink. The only drink that tasted good was the piña colada. And honestly, we weren't sure if the drinks were genuinely horrible or if Collin's attitude soured the experience. I don't think this place was anything special. We went to a lovely wine bar just a block away with great ambiance and lovely staff. This is not a place worth visiting

To the layman it may seem like just a dark "pirate" or "tiki bar", but the focus is really more centered around Lovecraftian and cosmic horror - not something you see you often but very much appreciated among those who are familiar. The menu is accessed by QR codes on the table. They have an *extremely* long list of cocktails, all named appropriately with the theming, but somewhat lacking in variety. Most of the cocktails are some combination of rum, spices, lime/lemon, and maybe something else fruity or sweet. My wife had a Ships from Far Shores while I enjoyed an Astro Orbiter. Their menu has an indicator of how strong each drink is, and it doesn't lie. The Astro Orbiter tasted great but was indeed quite strong. The staff were extremely polite and a pleasure to talk to. Unfortunately their kitchen was closed the evening we went, so we weren't able to grab any food, but hopefully we'll to try some the next time we stop by.
