The Pacific Restaurant is not accessible via metro - it is probably at least 10 miles from the nearest metro station.
You may want to try Mama Qwan's Tiki Hut, which just opened a couple of weekends ago - which is within a block of the Clarendon metro station (on the orange line, in Northern VA) I haven't been there yet, but there is some info on this thread - and if you do visit, let us know!

We went to Mama Quan's last night and were pretty disappointed. Concrete floors, loud frat-geared reggae, pseudo-tropical $9 sandwiches and not a tiki mug in the house. The crowd hailed from the Banana Republic. The servers told us the tiki theme was only a "summer fling."

Was at the Pour House yesterday and - in looking at their menus online - was astonished to discover that the Lincoln and Roosevelt tikis are actually still on display on either side of the main sign.
Also spotted this sign in a nearby park while walking back to the Metro. Apparently cocktail-making hoodlums have been hanging out there:
Aloha!

that is true, the drunks in the parks around capitol hill only drink martinis.

This has got to be (have been) one of the strangest concepts brought on by the Tiki revival. I am not a big fan of modern portrait/ caricature mugs (or Tikis), but one has to respect that they went all out with their concept on this one.

especially since they became the scheisse haus, which is synonymous with politics.
