My wife and I tried the pork, sauteed onions, pineapple, and guava jelly appetizer and we are glad we did. Ribs were absolutely amazing. Wait services was outstanding. We reserved a table ahead of time and we were seated with an ocean front view. Thank you Tikis Grill & Bar for making our experience memorable.

Went there last week and had their Furikake fries and the prime rib poke, but with Tofu. The server( Hannah) was super helpful with finding vegetarian options and helping me exchange meat for tofu. Also my two drinks (Water and Coke) never got all the way empty.
The ambiance is great, the view from the terrace is amazing and I got told they even to life music at night. I'll be back for sure.

Wish we found a texas roadhouse instead to be honest. I ordered medium ny strip. I got a burnt well done steak. I wasn't impressed. It was also very loud and service for our party was slow.

The quality of our food was outstanding. We had the ahi tartar to start followed by seafood risotto. Couldn't have been better. My wife enjoyed a mai-tai and I had a glass of white wine (which was a small serving imo). The perfect place at sunset. Good service by Seaba.

Food was not that good. Ahi tuna tower was great. The lettuce wrap meat was extremely salty. My salad was not what i expected at all. I thought it would have lettuce but it was all cabbage. Drinks, live entertainment, and the waitress were all great though.

Pretty decent even in covid times. Went there for drinks and a meet up and had a decent time with decent people, decent staff and decent prices for a place sitting right off waikiki beach on the weekend. It seems this place you may need to call ahead to make sure you get a spot but all in all its a cool place to be for the times. (I wouldnt get the food there tho. But peoples tastes are different)

Had a lovely evening at the outdoor bar area. A bit of confusion from the waiter when we entered first ushering us to the indoor area. When we asked to sit outside, they were happy to accommodate but left us to find a table on our own! Anyway once settled in, the live music, refreshing Mai Tai cocktails and delicious snack/appetizer style food made up for it (choose indoors if you want proper mains). Highly recommend the delicious pork quesadillas, Ahi poke stack and woodsmoked meats. Lovely breezy atmosphere across the road from the beach!

Service was very slow. Our server didn t check on us much and took a long time to take our orders & bring out all the drinks. We watched as several tables around us who were seated after us got their meals first. We had thought they had forgotten us when the brought the food. I was really disappointed in my tofu dish. It was not listed as an appetizer in a starter section, but it was so small and salty and cost about $13. I would of just ordered a burger if I knew it was so tiny for that price!
The live music was nice and the fries were tasty (I had to order a side of fries because my meal left me hungry). The alcoholic drinks were really overpriced so none of us ordered any. I m sure the ocean view is nice though if you re on that side of the restaurant.

You're on the beach, so it's hard to have a bad time. That being said, the menu is extremely overpriced for what you get. The cheapest entree is $24 and the appetizers, or pupu, are ~$15-18. Add in some drinks (also overpriced), and you're suddenly paying almost twice what the experience is worth. The food was good, but for the money you can get so much better. Especially considering that Lulu's next door is just as good for much less money, I'd have to say i won't be going back to Tiki's. Incredibly underwhelming experience. Luckily the people i was with made the night still enjoyable.

Beautiful outside view .The food was delicious. The appetizers were gourmet and plentiful. We had lunch and the Cubano sandwich was the best I've bought outside of "little havana"!!

Worst customer service ever! And I work in a restaurant so my level of patience is high. 15 available tables and they wont seat you because they are backed up. Made a reservation and asked for a table outside and they cant guarantee an outdoor table. Why are you turning down customers when your restaurant is empty.

A beautiful spot to look out over Waikiki beach and have some food and or a few drinks. It's right across the street from the beach and you can see the ocean from their outside deck. So lunch is a great time to go. We had the fish and chips and the three sliders. Not your typical fish and chips but still delicious. The fish is a white fish that is light and flaky. They use panko breading instead of a typical beer batter deep frying. I found them light and moist. Instead of chips, I got a side salad. The sliders were ok. The taro bread (which is purple) is a little too gummy for me. It really took away from the burger, fish and pork. The burger was the best of the sliders. Most of the time slider patties are dry bc they are so small, but tiki tiki did a great job of cooking the burger just right. The fish could not stand up to the taro bread. It just got lost. The pork was ok. I thought the pork tasted microwaved but the hubby said he liked it. All and all the food was good and the view was awesome.

My salmon was nice but the fettuccine tasted like just noodles and oil. The Thai shrimp was a bit over cooked and came with oddly cheesy and mildly spiced noodles. We ended up picking up food on the way home.

Great!

This place is on the second floor just next to the Marriott. A nice patio view of the ocean during the day.

On Saturday night, they have a guitarist and a bass playing acoustic music all night with their own Hawaiian twist to it. They play a lot of classic songs that's fitting for a tropical island...you can always go up and request your song that you would like them to play. 8 out of 10 times, they will know the song. Just don't expect em' to play a song like 'Pumped up Kids'.

Their Pina Colada are quite delicious, so make sure to get one here. I also ordered their ahi poke that I was not in favor of. Their fish seemed a little bit too old and over marinated with their soy sauce. I also thought that the bed of arugula that they had underneath was way too bitter for my taste. Yuck! The dish itself would have been a one star out of five. Fortunately, their live music and Pina Colada makes up for the other three!

Don't expect this place to be party central since its on the south end of the strip, but it is a cool place to chill out on a Saturday night!

Came here for lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food! The outdoor seating area boasts amazing views of Waikiki beach! Loco moco was delicious as well as the plate lunch box. If you check in on yelp, you also get a free gyoza appy worth $13!

Great over all service and the food was tasty. The pulled pork wasn't dry, however the sandwich was a little on the small side. The fries were amazing! The volcano wings hot the spot and the spice snuck up on you. I would recommend the roof top restaurant and ocean view.

I love Tikis. They have one of the best selections of beer (and not just the usual domestics). By far the Kona Wailua Wheat is the best. Food on the other hand...its good, but the prices are a bit high for what it is.

Amazing food and service (and you can't beat the view!) Fun atmosphere with live music in the evenings and a great tiki drink menu. Handsdown one of the best bartenders in Waikiki, Ambee. Ambee is sweet, professional, knowledgeable, and makes an amazing drink.

Outstanding patio view of the Waikiki beachfront! Their mai tais deserve more recognition cause they're good! A solid option for those looking for good bar food in the endless seas of restaurants.

The wait is 30 minutes or more. They have live music which is why I came. I did not try the food since I saw the prices and they were too expensive. I checked online and found better place with better view. It looks kind of messing due to the pool.is next to the them and it has color lights that made me dizzy.

Expensive, small portions, slow service. Food was ok. Waiter was chatting with other customers bc it wasn't busy, but took his sweet time to give us our check. We ordered 2 things and it was $45 without tip. Not a lot of food variety to choose from.

Called and asked about gluten free options and was told they could modify most dishes.
We were told we did not need reservations and it was open seating. Just as we got situated we were asked to move to another table because this one was reserved for an arriving family. They did reseat us at a nicer table which made up for it. The menu on the other hand....as someone who doesn't eat pork and have celiacs my two options were edamame or ahi tuna. Since both are appetizers and I was starving I picked the tuna because I figured it would be more food. Wrong. A few chewy pieces of tuna with a ton of raw onion and a couple of leaves of salad (see picture). Our waitress, while nice, also would not talk directly to me but only spoke to and made eye contact with one of the males in our party which was a bit, odd.
Only place I gave less than 4 stars on this trip and the only place I would not recommend.
Bummer, I really wanted to like this place. The ambiance was nice. Might be decent to go if you just want a drink.

Awesome food but I knocked down a star because our waitress was less than attentive. Otherwise, the food is to die for and the atmosphere is terrific. A must see if you're in Waikiki.
