Tiki No - North Hollywood, California

TJ Glovan

Look and feel of this place was great; they clearly wanted to make this feel immersive.
The Lychee Luau I had was tasty, but the bartender was distracted while making it and poured half the booze that was supposed to go into my drink on the rail. Service was nice, but felt a little lacking compared to the high standard that's the norm at tiki bars. A guy next to me tried to repeatedly get the bartender's attention at the bar, and the bartender was more interested in chatting and drinking with his fellow bartender.
They had karaoke going on too which also took away from the vibe a bit.

First time here and loved it! Starting with the security guard, super friendly and welcoming. We came at around 7pm, right in the middle of happy hour, and found a booth pretty easily. There were 4 drinks on the happy hour menu and all were pretty standard and cheap and worth it! We ended up ordering a Scorpion Bowl and it was delicious as well, easy to share between 4 people. The bartenders were nice and super attentive and cleared our tables as we finished drinks. We were even able to order from the table! Would come again!

I’m sure it gets crowded and noisy here, but we hit happy hour here before it filled up on a Friday night. My Blue Hawaiian was delightful, his Irish manhattan got a good review (and he’s a bit particular ?). Bartender great. Decor (and red booths) fun, with a patio as well.

My bestie told me how she loves coming here and finally dragged me out and it didn't disappoint. Being the little hidden diamond it is, I thought it was the coolest bar ever. Aside from Mr. Grumpy Pants, or as he is known (The older white haired guy), was a lifesaver here with her other cheeky Tiki mates who are fun and enjoyable to talk to and make some bomb drinks. Mr. Grumpy pants was unnecessarily rude and ruined our vibe as soon as we walked because he couldn't be bothered with us asking questions about the restaurant or the drinks as he was trying to force me to just buy one. I have allergies bro. Calm down. Bro: Pro Tip, no one is forcing you to be there, but it's your job to bring spirit, fun and discuss your menu, especially to new customers. So do it, or move along. Nobody deserves to be told off like we did or treated like poopy for no reason. Luckely a couple extra spots were open at the other end of the bar where we meet the ray of Sunshine herself, Sunny. They have N64 setup so that was cool to play and watch others play, have some delicious fireworks drinks and lots of love n laughs.... except for Mr. GRUMPY PANTS. Thank God he left because what a mood vibe killer. We almost left because of that guy after our first drink. But ... I let no one piss in my cheerios, except of course cows milk haha ?. Thanks TIki No for a great night! Except you, Mr. Grumpy Pants. Sunny could you poor your liquid Sunshine in a glass for him on his next shift so he can perk the f up?! Life's already hard.... don't make it hard for everyone else bro. Mahalo MF. Thanks Tiki!!! - oh and in case you like tiny little faucets there's two main attractions. The world's second tinest little faucet in the men's bathroom that is like an inch and a half long and will give you just the right amount of crazy with your hand washing experience ... and the world's smallest goes to Mr. Grumpy Pants with a micro 1 incher. Guess which one is gonna leave you wetter than a wet soggy burrito in tijuanna. Chao! Oh, it's cheap drinks too. I drank like 6 or 8 drinks and spent like 100. That's better than most cocktail lounges! Woot-woot!

Great little place, delicious pre-mixed piña colada with a fun curly straw! My party and I sat on the tiny patio, there was a gas fireplace turned on which the employee politely turned off for me at my request as it was 90* that day. Definitely unnecessary to have a fireplace going. But I will be back for sure.

The atmosphere here is amazing, thanks to the Bamboo Ben-designed decor! The staff is all super friendly and helpful. The music is loud but fun. I was bopping the whole time we were there! There’s a fireplace, indoor and outdoor seating, intimate booths under thatched roofs.

The downside here is the drinks are just okay. We had a zombie and a mai tai and didn’t love them enough to try more. It’s gotta be tough for Tiki No that the tiki-drink bar is set pretty high in SoCal.

I’m also disappointed that there was no merchandise available. I talked to a bartender who told me they used to have merch, but not recently.

Tiki No, I love what you’re doing. I may not rush back for a drink, but if you ever start selling merch like Tiki mugs, I’d gladly come back, buy a mug (maybe two!) and a shirt, enjoy the atmosphere and give other drinks a shot.

Tiki No is a pretty cool Tiki themed bar. When I went it wasn't too busy. The drinks are pretty cheap for NoHo/LA and some of them even come in these cool themed glass or in one case a bowl! Bartenders were nice, friendly, and quick! The atmosphere this place creates on the inside is awesome, they really took their time to get great scenery pieces to really entrance you in the theme. Overall, fun place, good drinks, and pretty chill place if you're looking for a fun time and not too much commotion.

Unique and tasty drink selections. Atmosphere and lighting is also great. Parking is on the street.
