“ The food was great, the Banana Dance was drink amazing. The waitress Carson was very professional and courteous and the bartender Savie was amazing and again the drinks were delicious. Idk who the cook was but the food was wonderful so props to them too. I can’t believe I never heard of this place but apparently they recently opened. But it’s my go to place from now on. 10/10. I posted pictures of the Teriyaki Steak Sandwich and the Hot Lemon Pepper wings. Ps Bathrooms were immaculately clean which is very telling and important. ”

Friday Gustav

“ The most INCREDIBLE food, atmosphere, and service. The staff were incredibly friendly and fast. The food was fresh and made with lots of care and love, and so were the drinks. Best Pina Colada i’ve ever had, hands down. Their tropic thunder shot was also one of my favorites. The steak salad and fresh pork rinds were to die for. Every time i’m in Tuscaloosa I will make sure to come and visit this place!! 10/10, i’ve already recommended this place to several friends. ”

“ Stopped in on whim while walking around on a Friday evening. I thought they offered drinks to go like some of the other bars on weekends but an employee informed me that their license doesn’t allow them to do that at this time. So I decided to stay and try out two drinks. I tried the Hemingway (pictured) and the rum old fashioned (I forgot the actual name of the drink). Both cocktails were pretty good. I’m usually a tough critic when it comes to cocktails, but I was pleased. The customer service was great as well. So I would definitely come back. I didn’t have any food, so I can’t comment on that. The interior is quaint but I like the aesthetic. There are a couple regular height tables that can each sit two people, but most of the tables in the restaurant are high tops. I don’t have an issue with that, but I just wanted to mention that in case anyone has accessibility concerns or a strong table height preference. ”

“ Let me start by saying- I’m blown away. This is my new spot. You can tell just how much love when into this place. The vibes, drinks, and food were 10/10. We had the hot Lemon pepper wings, Caribbean burger and banana pudding. For drinks we had the beaches Italian and several of the Ancient Mariners. Topped off with a tropic thunder shot ( a must if you visit). The hot lemon pepper were perfect, I would’ve had 50 had I known how good the sauce was. The burger was so filling, and the peppers went really well with it. The menu and drink pairings were obviously well thought out. Atmosphere is immaculate- truly a must visit restaurant. A welcome and incredibly unique addition to Tuscaloosa. Can’t wait to be back. ”

“ Really nice little tiki bar. The zombie was good and strong and the food was quite good. The wings were crispy and had a good flavor. The Spam Lettuce Tomato sandwich was really nice combination of salty, savory, and fresh. ”

Jeffrey S

“ They are brand new so a lot of grace is going into this review. The venue is small and I’ve visited many spots that made small spaces work so this definitely has potential. The drinks were really great with the exception of way too much ice served consistently with each drink made. I ordered pineapple Mango wings while my husband ordered a pulled chicken sandwich with fries and wasabi ranch dipping sauce. The wings definitely are a working recipe in progress and came out extremely dry but they are still trying to perfect them so I used the wasabi ranch that definitely made it all better. My husband adored the fries and his sandwich. All shot glasses, cups and just the general theme was extremely cute. I hope to definitely give them another shot once they have been open a few months to see the ever evolving menu and flow. I’m excited for what’s to come for them. ”
