Hala Kahiki is undoubtedly my favorite tiki bar! It has been around for many years, yet it still maintains a timeless charm. The space is roomy, beautifully decorated, and delightfully dim, creating a fantastic atmosphere. There's also an outdoor patio to enjoy. The drinks are reasonably priced and truly pack a punch! Their extensive drink menu has something for everyone, and every cocktail I've tried has been delicious. This place is simply the best, and I love visiting with friends, going on dates, or even hosting work gatherings. It’s always a success! They also have a gift shop with some really unique items. An additional perk of Hala Kahiki is the ability to stroll down the block to Gen...
Ambiance is great, and the drinks are interesting. Decent NA drinks too, which isn 't always the case for places like this. However, I haven 't been back in years because the wait times can be insane AND the last time I went, the hostess was blatantly letting her friends, people she knew/liked, etc. skip the line. To be fair, they may have fixed this in the meantime, but I 'm not a person with a great deal of free time, so I haven 't been back to check. When stuff like this happens, the message I hear is we don 't respect your time; don 't bother coming here, so I don 't.
This is a hidden gem in the Chicago suburbs! The restaurant has stunning interiors and a beautiful ambiance. The space is quite large, offering a variety of seating options, which I absolutely loved. The vibe is fantastic and the setting is very inviting. One thing to mention is that the drink menu is extensive, while the food menu is somewhat limited. The service was prompt and friendly, and the drinks were quite strong. I highly recommend trying the Volcano and the Manhattan Rum-mified. Definitely worth a visit!
We had a lovely time. First the decor is incredible. This place has a classic vibe much more old school than other tiki bars in the area. That is because of that era. I loved the classic feel. Our service was excellent. Drinks were delicious but on thesweet side, which is my preference. Not a lot of options for snacks but that was clear from the website we ate before we came.What we ordered was tasty though. Absolutely worth the trip out to it. I will attempt to return next time I'm in the area. Book a table now
This is one of my new favorite tropical bars. The ambience, the decor, the menu ? it all evokes the same kind of feeling you read about in the books that Beachbum Berry recalls from the Golden Age of tropical bars. And unlike those in the city, there?splenty of space and parking (plus more affordable drinks). And a huge selection, wow. Want to recreate the feeling at home? Theyhave a gift shop, too! Love this place, can?t wait to come back!
Fantastic drinks and a great atmosphere! I've been coming here for over 10 years and I've never been let down. They also have an outdoor seating area. I always order the Zombie and the Blue Lagoon Martini, and they keep me happy all night long!
Unique place. My husband and I enjoyed the atmosphere, good music and decorations. We want to come back again soon Price per person: $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Hawaiian Chips and Salsa, Salsa
The ambiance is wonderful, and the drink selection is intriguing. They also offer some good non-alcoholic options, which isn't always typical for places like this. However, I haven't returned in quite some time... Book a table now
Nestled in the suburbs of Chicago, Hala Kahiki is a classic tiki bar that has been around for quite some time. After visiting Three Dots and a Dash in downtown, I couldn’t help but draw some comparisons...
Great experience! We had a fun and unique daytime visit to Hala Kahiki yesterday. Our server, Paul, along with all the staff, were incredibly friendly and attentive.
