Dear Friends,
It is with a profound regret and a heavy heart that I must inform you all the Lucky Tiki's last night will be this Saturday (until they find a new location). This information was relayed to me by DJ Lee. May I humbly suggest a nocturnal get together (or "shindig" as the kids say) this Saturday to lift a glass one last time to this fine establishment? As an added inducement, Saturday is a particularly interesting time at this locale for one to observe the mating rituals of the indigenous Mission Hills habitants.
I am at a loss of words and can only say, That's F*cked up, y'all!
Your humble servant,
Atomic "Atomic Cocktail" Cocktail

It's closing because they didn't pick my Tiki Bar name as a winner in their name-a-new-bar contest.
"Gilligan's Smile" shoulda won.

Hi friends,
Yes, it's sad but true.
This will be the last weekend of the Lucky Tiki (at it's current location.)
Lee and I just heard this week ourselves, and it was a surprise to us too, so I didn't want to jump the gun and be the first to report the news on TC.
Don't worry, all the fabulous artifacts, decor and carvings (and booze!) will be safely stored until their new home is found. No, we will NOT be disclosing the location of said storage space you crazy collectors!-So don't ask!!! : D
Let us not mourn, instead let us celebrate a great 2 years of good friends and tasty libations!Let's send off the Lucky Tiki right as she embarks on her new voyage!
As luck would have it, I already had plans to be out of town this weekend, so I can't join the fun for the final night Saturday.
BUT I WILL BE THERE TONIGHT! THURSDAY!
So join me friends, and we will raise our glass in TC style to the Lucky Tiki!

I am glad that I got to visit, even if it was with Kirby.
Just kidding. Since I suffer from the same disease as Grog I make bad Kirby jokes.

Too bad. Another tiki bar lost. This also means no more excuses to stop for dinner at the Safari Room before an night of drinking at Lucky Tiki. Last chance Saturday!

In its short history, it became a legend amongst tiki bars.The meeting place for many hardcore tiki people,and has been an introduction to many newbies alike, what a modern tiki bar is, and what a good tiki bar should be. From the expert mixology of the fabulous drink goddess suzy,to the exotic sounds of master music man, Dj Lee.The Enchanted modern tiki Artifact that adorn every corner of this enchanted place,Not to mention It has welcomed many other awesome tiki artist to Share there own brand of tiki art on its walls in its legendary art shows,and this all happened on a sleepy Sunday night...It also holds its own Every other night of the week as a watering whole and gathering point for some of the friendliest and most eclectic people Ive I have ever met.
Ive had a great time hangin at the lucky tiki,the last couple years and I cant wait till it reopens bigger and better than before..Thanks Lucky Tiki your the BEST......Kirby
