Always looking for a unique approach to cocktails, Tiki Ti fell generously into my lap during a random Google search for bars when I was visiting Los Feliz. While not ‘unique’ in a cocktail sense, the vibe and decor of this little gem along with the luscious and potent drinks, made for a great one hour visit. 70’s kitsch and Hawaiian Tiki vibes flood the small space, the Love Boat was playing on a small television set above the door. Interesting mix of oldies wearing Hawaiian shirts and a few younger hipsters made for a chill vibe. Other than a rather standoffish bartender, seems to be an LA thing I encountered the last three nights I’ve been visiting-broken dreams and tired of the service industry perhaps(?), I dug the place and experience. Also, I switched bartenders and was met with a more jovial and welcoming experience so it easily lands itself into a 5 star rating in my book. Would’ve stayed longer but 2 drinks kicked me pretty hard and got me hankering for sushi. Take your time drinking and you can easily spend an enjoyable evening with a date or friends in this...

In short, they have a really nice selection of tiki drinks. We had three different varieties each and liked them all. They are very strong, so definitely drink responsibly!
The decor is what I would expect from a tiki bar Dash cluttered and overdone! Makes for a great ambience. And, it’s actually a pretty cool vibe when they pull out the bull and run it down the bar. There is a mixed crowd Dash young and old. Feels like a cozy neighborhood bar.
I definitely plan on returning!
The only slight con that I will mention is their presentations are not as extravagant as some tiki bars. Pretty much all of the drinks I saw were served in standard bar glasses. Only a few were served in...
