    Tipsy Tiki = strong drinks, chill vibes, and zero regrets
    Anthony N.

    We found this little gem while looking for a spot to watch the 49ers game, and it did not disappoint. Drinks were strong, smooth, and looked almost too pretty to sip on (almost). The piña coladas were the kind that make you rethink every sad blender version you've ever had at home, and the Tipsy Mai Tai definitely lived up to its name. The bartender was super friendly, the vibe was laid-back, and while there were a surprising number of Bucs fans hanging around, respect. It just added to the fun. TVs all around, good energy, and tiki drinks that sneak up on you in the best way. A great little spot to grab a few drinks, watch some football, and pretend you're living your best island life.

    Tiki bar located in the mall food court in Waikiki. We actually came here two times in one day- once before the cirque de soleil show, then I brought my brothers here for an after show drink. Same bartender and she was great and very friendly, made killer drinks too. Lots of regulars here, but felt very welcomed. Cool vibe and was fitting for Hawaii.

    Loved this place! We visited this cool little place on 02/21/25. Our server was fantastic I don't remember her name but she had a thick accent. We tried the Casamigos Cadillac margarita, guava margarita, chips and salsa, birria ramen, and the birria beef tacos. We returned on Sunday 2/23/25 for more food and drinks. We had the beef nachos and La Pina margaritas. The guy working Sunday was nice and provided outstanding customer service. The drinks are strong which is great! (We sat outside and were served by the outdoor staff).

    Great vodka suggestions and amazing micheladas.

    Amazing service and amazing drinks!!! First time visiting Hawaii and this has been our go-to. Micheladas are a 10/10 and what got us hooked. All other drinks have been phenomenal as well. In such a clean, fun area as well. Near many shops. Matt is the best!!! Definitely will be visiting again.

    Love visiting Matt for a drink whenever I can! Always has fresh ingredients, tasty drink specials & amazing food here too! Highly recommend

    Chips, guacamole and mai tai was
    Shirley O.

    This place will leave you tipsy or maybe I'm just a lightweight. I came in for a snack and drink and ordered guacamole and chips and a mai tai. Surprisingly, the guacamole and chips were very good. The guacamole was fresh and creamy. It needed a little more salt. The chips were light and crunchy. The mai tai was good and strong - sweet, sour, tropical and boozy. I felt tipsy within 30 minutes. Service was excellent and the vibe was relaxed and casual. The bartender was friendly and my food came out quickly. Thank goodness I was in walking distance and not driving. The mai was a strong drink. I drank it all because it was good and wasn't going to let it go to waste.

    Is it kid friendly?

    YES! We love kids and even have a kid menu! Because we are located inside a restaurant and primarily serve food, kids are allowed to sit at tables inside the bar area or even at the accompanied with a parent.

We were seated immediately at a table that afforded us an excellent view of Diamond Head. The unhindered breeze gave the place a relaxed island vibe. Service was top notch with friendly and mindful servers who made sure we were comfortable and answered any questions we had concerning the menu items. We decided on the Diamond Head breakfast with the Portuguese sausage and the Tokyo style pancakes. The Diamond Head Breakfast was the standard two eggs, meat and potatoes. But the Tokyo style pancakes were excellent! They were fluffy with ricotta cheese incorporated in the pancakes. This is our first experience with this type of pancake and it was delish! It was well worth the visit!

Our server was…read morefriendly, although they were pretty busy with other tables, so we didn't get checked on as often throughout the meal. It wasn't a huge deal for us, though. The food was good! We tried the truffle fries, calamari, haupia French toast, kim chee fried rice, and braised short rib loco moco. Everything was tasty, but if I had to pick one dish to order again, it would definitely be the kim chee fried rice, as the portion was huge & tasted yummy. We also shared a few bottles of mimosas, and the iced mocha was delicious and perfectly chocolatey. One thing to keep in mind is that it can get pretty warm, especially during the summer. They have a large covered area and can cover portions of the restaurant that are getting direct sun, but if you're visiting during the daytime, I'd definitely recommend bringing a portable fan. You could also call ahead and request a table that isn't directly in the sun. Overall, we had a great brunch experience and would definitely come back again!

Thankfully we got here before the line got long and the room itself felt pretty stuffy since it was packed, so my family and I moved to a corner with the AC where it was cooler and had less people so it gave us more breathing room. Tips: There's free validated parking for 3 hours, use the restroom before going into the bar since you have to get back in line if you leave the bar, and have only one person in your party wait up front for your drinks since it's crowded near the bartenders. Hope you all had fun this holiday season!

The staff was friendly and attentive, but definitely kept that "island time" pace. At one meal, it took over 15 minutes just to get our ices teas & waters. The food was pretty good but on the pricey side, even for Waikiki. Teri steak and fries were $24 for the a la carte steak (about 5-6oz of thin steak) and another $6 for the side of fries. Ouch. The owner is a lovely man, I can tell he puts his heart into the food and atmosphere, and I hope they'll see continued success with rising food costs.

Sean took our order and 5 out of the 7 people at our table received the wrong meal. It also took almost an hour for us to receive our dinner. If they were busy, it would be different, but there was only one other table by the pool and they seemed to be only ordering drinks. Our food was cold and sub-par at best - it was definitely not worth the wait! Sean was also inattentive throughout the evening. We had to go to the bar to order drinks or had to ask another worker for condiments because Sean was nowhere to be found. I hope the owners and management take these reviews seriously! I do not know how they are still in business with this type of service and food! Unacceptable!!!
