Golden Tiki is a pretty big bar and is polypop as hell. While there are hidden treasures everywhere, it is a bit more Disney than kitschy or moody.
I ordered a Dole-whip cocktail. It was pretty good, but I couldn't help but compare it to the OG tiki bar--Frankie's. My cocktail tasted nice (NO garnish!!!); however, Frankie's cocktails are cheaper, far more complex, and ALWAYS garnished. It's all about the follow-through.
This is a great party bar, but go to Frankie's for old school the exotica vibe.
