Damon's Steak House in Glendale, CA is a Tiki Bar Restaurant, not far from Hollywood, first established in 1937, which had to move in the '70's to make room for the Glendale Galleria but still resides in their second location on Brand Blvd. Great steaks and Mai Tai's with all the Tiki decor!

A note on the WW II experience, not every island was fought on like Tarawa, there were islands that were basically supply bases, medical facilities and some were R&R (Rest & Relaxation). So there's a good chance that American GIs saw the good, the bad, and ugly if they were in the South Pacific. It's also worth noting that many locals actually had positive experiences with the Allied (not just Americans) as the Japanese had racist attitudes towards other Asians and Islanders so this could also be a bright spot for American service men in that theater of war. Tiki culture is about as real as a plastic flamingo. It's meant to be kitsch and fun rather than real. The Rum connection (which is mainly grown in the Caribbean islands, not the South Pacific) is actually a Prohibition leftover where rum runners had so much leftover stock that the price became dirt cheap. Pair that with fruit juices, sugar and bitters and a Tiki bar was a pretty cost effective night out.🗿👍✨

Tiki culture isn't just about the decor; it's about the desire to lead the life of an idealized beachcomber, far away from the responsibilities of our industrialized society. A subsistence existence in a place where the fish are easily caught, tropical fruit is plentiful, and the sun is always shining. In some ways, the "Margaritaville" culture inspired by the late Jimmy Buffet is a modern expression of the same yearning to "get away from it all".

Around the turn of the century my housemates and I decided to turn the living room of our new house near Santa Cruz into a tiki bar. There was a lot of bamboo of course. A custom bar well stocked. And we scoured all of the local thrift stores for all of the funkiest sets of cocktail glasses. At parties guests would go behind the bar and make a round of some new drink off the top of their heads. Most rounds were very worthwhile. A few not so much.

It appeared to me that by the late 70s "Tiki Culture" merged with "Margaritaville" Jimmy Buffet/Key West culture for my Baby Boomer parents (kids of the WW2 generation).

I had read an article about Filipino bartenders who had worked maybe at Don the Beachcomber then later at Trader Vic's franchises in the Midwest who were teenagers in the late 1930s living in Los Angeles who had to go back to the family back in the Philippines and unfortunately were there during the Japanese sneak invasion (Dec 8, 1941... same day Dec 7 but they were over the International Date Line so most people forget the other infamy of that day). They were able to join and hide with guerilla fighters and Alamo Scouts up in the Hills and survived and attacked the Japanese until Liberation, just barely. It was harrowing to say the least. If not for the bravery of these fighters, the landings by MacArthur would have been harder. (And the raid on POW camp Carbantuan would note have been as successful, if even attempted). A lot of young Americans have no idea the costs they paid.

Terrific little doc. Growing up in Kansas City, we didn't have a lot of Tiki Culture; my earliest memories involve a restaurant called the Kona Kai, a place which included a lot of running water and bamboo structures. I notice, towards the end, movie footage of what looks like a luau is used; based on the curvature of the picture, it would appear to be a Cinerama travelogue; does anyone have any idea which movie it might be? Granted, the credits ran fairly quickly, but, while there is an acknowledgement of Cinerama, no specific titles are mentioned.

I was able to go to the Tiki Bar in Florida, not the Disney one. The dancing show was a huge part of the entertainment. It was a restaurant that wasn't good food but the drinks.

They're fun and a great escape from the outside world for a little bit if you like libations. Love how some places are keeping the old school roots while moving away from appropriation and embracing more accurate Polynesian cuisine and culture.

There was a restaurant in Lake George with a Tiki theme, not sure whether it still exists!
