Tiki - Costa Mesa

Went here the other night to check out a local band never got past the dick head at the door, don't waste your time going here.

Disgusting place. This is where morals go to die in hell. Calling bbb right now and osha!

Honestly am so surprised how good this bar sounds when it comes to live shows. I was invited to a reggae show a couple weeks back and the sound was perfect. You could hear each individual instrument and the vocals were pretty clear as well after the sound guy did some adjusting. Honestly give your sound engineer a raise because they are killing the game. The drinks here are pretty standard for a dive bar with a small selection of draft beer and some bottled options as well. This isn't really a tiki bar so don't go in there expecting that but for a dive bar it's pretty decent. The real winner though outside of the audio was the tacos. I ordered 4 of the Al pastor tacos and these were some of the best tacos I've had, which honestly is crazy to think about since it's a little taco station in the back of the bar. But they were flavorful and I loved that they even included a slice of pineapple which you don't really see often anymore. The two servers at the taco station have their system down and we're able to help us quickly as well.If this location got bigger gigs, similar to chain reaction I would honestly keep coming back. Not a bad place to stop by though if you're in the area. Until the next show Tiki Bar

I've been visiting this place and have performed here for wub wednesday a number of times. I'm really impressed with the service and atmosphere. Keep it up !

The fat old douche with white hair at the door is an ****, the bar tenders Are super nice tho. My band has played here several times and brought this venues a lot of money. This guy is just a hassle and gave me **** for bringing In a water bottle when we were the headlining band, never have I ever had to deal with this even at much more prestigious venues in Hollywood and sd, He put a huge damper on what would've been super uplifting time. I will from now on not recommend bands to play here to avoid having to deal with it.
