    This place was long time on my list to try for Tiki cocktails in the Valley. I had recently been in West Hollywood and happened upon a tiki bar named Lucky Tiki where I talked to a fellow Tiki lover and he asked if I had been to Captain's Cabin in Phx. I told him it's on the list but I decided to go since it keeps getting pushed back. This bar is located adjacent to Hula's Tiki Restaurant which has yummy food and a standard tiki bar but nothing amazing. If you want legit tiki drinks hop next door under the red light. We met bartender Henry who will be the more present guy behind the bar, he said that Captain Dave is doing other projects. Henry was great, and we hoped to chat with the Captain himself, but maybe at a pop up event at another place. Our drinks were beautiful, delicious, and stiff. All the things I enjoy with the Tiki style of cocktails. We enjoyed our time at the bar with friends. Great little spot.

    The Captain's Cabin was closed for over a month and recently reopened with a revamped menu and with Captain Alex Perez behind the bar. Alex knows his stuff and the majority of signature cocktails on the menu are his (spoiler alert: they're strong). He's a fun and energetic presence behind the bar and I'm glad to see the Cabin opened back up.

    Nice intimate space well themed and the drinks have obviously been given some thought. Great tiki style bar next to Hula's. Sad the dark and stormy didn't have the original Rum but the Mai Tai and other drink I had were great. The wife enjoyed her adventure as well.

    This is easily one of my favorite bars! The bartender has been working there since it opened and he provides the best service. He is so personable and makes the experience memorable! Phenomenal bartender. The bar is so neat and it truly feels like you are transported somewhere else. The drink menu is very large and there is something for everyone. I have never had a drink I don't love.

    Kirin Mai tai Forgotten skipper Entrees: Fries small Really nice speakeasy the decoration is spot on and the bartender is so cool and nice my friend loves their cocktails and never has anything bad to say definitely check this place out they have quite a few things to snack on here as well and they all look great. The fries were pretty good too and crispy.

    This is a very welcoming and cozy bar. Went here on a date. We sat at the bar. David is awesome and made my date a special drink using bourbon. He loved it! I had the Cobra's Fang and had to control myself from wanting to sip all at once. Delicious and satisfying tiki drink. My date then ordered an old fashioned cocktail and let me try it. This is the best old fashioned I have ever had. I wanna go back again just for that, the awesome bartender David, and to try more tiki drinks and enjoy the ambience of this cool establishment.

    Such a cute little speakeasy/tiki bar! Dim lights and great decor. There is enough seating for maybe 20 people, and they don't take reservations. I imagine it may get a bit crowded on weekends. We went on a Thursday evening and there were just 2 seats left when we arrived. People came and went during the time we were there, so someone looking for seats could have just waited a bit and gotten one. Pretty extensive drink menu. The drinks are tasty, and the presentation is great. Captain Dave even made my mai tai prettier with a flower when I asked! Small bites are also available. Probably an unpopular opinion as people love AC around here, and maybe we were sitting right where the air was blowing, but the AC kept kicking in and I was cold. A relatively minor inconvenience, everything else was great!

    Most people don't know about this place but it is amazing! It's a speakeasy next to Hula's in uptown. Captain David, the bartender, is so fun and makes fantastic drinks. It feels like you are on a pirate ship and has such a cool vibe. It's a great place for date night or just grabbing a casual drink

    Fun speakeasy next to Hula's. Small space with limited seating so expect to wait or maybe be unable to come in. We were very lucky that we happened to come in when a group of 4 people left. The drinks were good and not too expensive especially for their size. I love their look and how fun all the drinks were, very good tasting and fun for pictures. The Captain/bartender was super friendly and attentive, he made it a point to connect with each guest and was talking to patrons. I liked the aesthetic of the place, very much a tiki bar with a ship theme which was fun. Similar menu to Hula's if not the exact same. The space was also a bit hot and felt a little stuffy but that can be expected from a small space. When we came in, it was our first time and since there is no hostess, only the captain, we felt a little awkward and unsure of what to do or if we should sit ourselves. That was probably the only bad part. They have seats at the bar and some booth areas as well. Probably no more than 15 people or so could fit in there comfortably so it's kind of nice to have the space that's intimate and unique. I would probably go back, but would get there early to avoid having to wait or being unable to get a spot!

    Pi-Yi!

    I had The Captain's Cabin bookmarked for the long... so I was ecstatic to finally check it out! I would describe it as a much smaller, more quaint version of Hula's, which is next door and shares owners (and probably more). Captain David handles everything - from taking your order to making your drinks to settling up your check. He is awesome, quick, personable, and somehow never seems overwhelmed! I tried the Pi-Yi, which was absolutely incredible! I love passionfruit and the passionfruit flavor shines through in the Pi-Yi, along with all of that wonderful delicious alcohol! I highly recommend this cocktail! I also had a Mai Tai - and it is easily one of the better mai tai cocktails in the Valley! Overall, The Captain's Cabin offers a cool fun vibe and tasty tiki cocktails... and I will be back! *****FIVE STARS*****

    Such a fun spot to hit up on a late night. My friend and I didn't expect to go out but when we did, she recommended we start here. We wanted Halloween vibes and it totally delivered, there was eerie red lighting, fake spiderwebs and skulls on the bar area plus a seasonal drink menu. The bartender, David, was very cool and kept it classy with his captain's hat. I had the Treacherous Waters, per David's recommendation, while my friend ordered Queen Anne's Revenge. Both were very tropical and delicious, my friends drink even had a little umbrella with a spiderweb on it for the 'gram. Overall this is a very low-key niche place to stop for a drink after visiting Hula's or eating at Denny's.

    1.17.26 A Tale of Two Beet Salads!…read more The first one we ordered tasted kind of "meaty" like maybe it was on the same grill as the burgers? The second one tasted "clean" or like it was supposed to taste. The Burger & Fish Tacos were full of flavor & freshness! I loved their fries b/c crispy on outside & soft on the outside. Missing their Guac & Chips Starter that was on former menu tho. We gotta commend the F&B Manager here! He overheard us talking to the waiter about the differences in the Charred Beet Salads & told us why: one was on the grill too long & he only knew that b/c he was in the kitchen watching them make it. He appreciated us sharing about the nuanced difference in how salads tasted & comped one. Wow - this is really going above & beyond: caring enough to have a convo w/ diners, acknowledging their palates detecting the difference AND making it right, b/c as he said "both should taste the same, like the second one." A commitment to excellence and consistency is a rarity. Overall, Lylo Swim Club outdoor bar/restaurant is a little oasis tucked away amongst so much greenery and beauty! Yes they have the pool nearby, but we didn't take a dip. Something to look forward to! P.S. Can the tile pattern on the bar be any more gorgeous?!

You would think being outside they would have someone buss since there were bugs swarming everywhere. The Dole Whip drinks you would assume the alcohol would be mixed in but just poured on top. Service was honestly extremely disappointing usually I can give them some grace but this was just... wow! Then I go to pay and there were several items on my bill that were never ordered. Mind you never got silverware or napkins so we were using the towels. 25 minutes for a can of beer mind you. Place could have potential but would need several more servers and maybe individuals that are equipped to even do the job in the first place. $300 for actually a slap in the face and no sunburn because are seats were in the shade with dirty dishes damn near on top of us. Gross, waste of money, and just disturbing. Could not pay me to come back. In addition the pool looked so alarmed I was surprised individuals were even in it, I barely let my feet in. Update : I tried to contact the hotel yesterday to get in touch with the manager, was given 3 emails all wrong. The emails never got delivered. Call the Lylo Swim Club this morning and spoke with Paul Epstein.... oh my actual god good luck. So extremely rude not helpful at all no wonder on his LinkedIn he switches jobs every few months. Some things he told me on the phone.... 1. That the dishwasher/busser was going around every 20 minutes and grabbing dishes... Wrong I saw him once 2. Explained to him that the drinks tasted like they were poisoned. He said what do you expect when you order alcohol. 3. he asked why I didn't grab a server. There were two and I saw them maybe three times only when they were delivering wrong food. He then told me that they were overstaffed yesterday pathetic. On top of that he said everyone was going there to get the dole whip drinks because of TikTok. I'm glad other people could enjoy them, but you would think since he works in the restaurant industry he would have grace for others when its impossible to please everyone. That I understand but with all of these things that went wrong a discount should have been applied. I've never experienced someone so rude and uptight. I can't even imagine someone having a bachelorette party or a birthday there I would be embarrassed to have my friends or anyone I know being in contact with this place or Paul. good luck to him.

The staff was knowledgeable and took the time to explain the menu, making the experience approachable even for a first-time visitor. I decided to try one of their signature kava beverages, and I was pleasantly surprised by how intriguing and complex the drink was. The flavor profile was unlike anything I had experienced before--earthy, bold, and distinctive in a way that felt both adventurous and refined. More importantly, the effects were exactly as described. As I enjoyed my drink, a gentle sense of relaxation gradually settled in, leaving me feeling calm, centered, and remarkably at ease without any sense of heaviness. What I appreciated most was how the experience encouraged mindfulness and connection. Lacuna offers something refreshingly different from a traditional coffee shop or cocktail lounge, creating an environment where conversation flows naturally and relaxation takes center stage. Whether you're curious about kava for the first time or already familiar with its calming properties, Lacuna Kava Bar is absolutely worth a visit. The combination of a welcoming atmosphere, knowledgeable staff, and a truly distinctive beverage experience makes it a standout destination. I left feeling refreshed, relaxed, and looking forward to my next visit.

GOOD! inspired by taco bell's baja blast hahahah). they TREATED us to all three of their current desserts on the menu. it was the most pleasant surprise i could've imagined. my favorite was the flourless chocolate cake! it was like a thick, rich brownie, had passion fruit cream to "lighten it up" and a caramel-like taffy on the bottom my brother and sister-in-law both said their favorite was the gulab jamun (which is basically like little fried dough balls/donuts, influenced by indian flavors and spices). the mille-feuille was also fantastic - the pastry was light and airy, cream wasn't too sweet and also very light, shaved cheese on top made it have a savory bite, and the jam alongside it was strawberry rhubarb. service is always amazing, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable; it seems like everybody working here truly enjoys it. quite literally already have a reservation booked at valentine and will be coming back here beforehand. update: came back for more drinks (fernet & coke, spaghett western, negroni) and their lamb flauta. all AMAZING! and amazing order to whet the appetite before dinner at valentine.

I love a good "Last Word" but the tea added a welcome and subtle layer. A nicely created cocktail without shaming the original. Servers were attentive, constantly filling up water, and making sure we were well taken care of. We will be back!
