Just caught this tonight on syndication ... FANTASTIC set indeed! Awesome mugs, background art & carvings, the midcentury fireplace on the karaoke stage --- well done!
Loved it when Sheldon said at one point, "...a room full of inaccurate depictions of Polynesian religion..." ha! I don't think they actually used the word "tiki" in the episode though?

Thanks TikiGreg for posting this Ad. When I first saw it I was floored. I wasn't really paying attention till the end. Wow nice tiki bar I thought. After some digging in YouTube I found the commercial and I watched it with high anticipation.
Unfortunately I was confused after seeing it. The art direction like the tikis or the blowfish lights were not very good. Then the third time I watched it I realized all the items that make a tiki bar a tiki were changed to a "chicken" version of everything. So the weird pufferfish light were actually bloated chickens, the craved tiki were not your Polynesian type images but chickens craving like a seahawk on a Northwest totem pole, etc. After realizing this I loved the thought that went into it. Now it's one of my favorite commercials. Hope everyone can follows TG link to watch it. I call everything "tiki" in the ad "chiki" So it's a Chiki bar with lots of chikis in it. haha It helps to have a mid century actor in it also.

Just saw a new version of the KFC commercial. This one has tiki (chiki) masks on the bamboo wall behind.
Here is the YouTube link:

On The Golden Girls Season 7 Episode 16 Blanche meets a man at a Polynesian Hotel.
The bar pops out of the wall with a remote
and so does the bed, what a headboard.
