Tiki Bar
2003 East Carson St., Pittsburgh PA; Tel. 412.381.8454
Pittsburgh's only Tiki temple was opened in a trendy southside neighborhood in autumn 2002, and is said to be designed after Columbus's universally missed Kahiki (right down to shell sinks in the washrooms). One enters the two-story building through a mammoth Tiki, to find a bar across from some booths. The rear of the room contains a dance floor, and the basement level is a non-smoking bar. The tipsy factor here is high, clearly a lot of thought went into this Pittsburgh bar. Two waterfalls and plenty of Tikis exist among the dense foliage and a slate floor and thatched roofing complete the vibe. Drinks are in the $11 range, but each is matched to a different Tiki mug that is yours to keep. Outstanding! (Excerpt from Tiki Road Trip: A Guide to Tiki Culture in North America by James Teitelbaum)
