Not all tourist traps are a trap, and this hot spot right off the ferry pier is the kind of place I would normally avoid like the plague. Yet the service is extortionary, and the novelty tiki drinks are actually delicious instead of the sweet headache inducing pucker-makers you would normally find in a place like this. If big silly drinks aren't your thing, they have an impressive display of artisanal mezcal's and tequila at reasonable prices. I had both.
