    I LOVE this place! The staff is incredibly kind and friendly. The drinks?!? Amazeballs. Highlights; zombie killer, kali mas's doom, permanent midnight. If you are the designated driver, I thoroughly enjoyed Glass Ruby!

    Continues to be the best tiki bar in town and there is steep competition! The drinks are so good and the service is so fast.

    Parking: Metered and scarce. Interior: VERY cool interior that screams tiki vibes so it is on theme. Plenty of seating for all group sizes. lighting is mostly dim all around with some well lit areas. Wait Time: None as we went at opening after dinner. Drinks were made withing 5-10min. Items Order: Cocktails $16 Mocktails $14 Unfortunately the drinks were not that memorable in taste. I thought they were all around mid but vibes were good.

    We stopped by for drinks and really enjoyed the fun tiki bar vibes here! I tried the Permanent Midnight, a rum-based coffee cocktail with coconut, pandan and banana which turned out to be too sweet for me. It reminded me of an espresso martini and unfortunately was a bit one note as I didn't get any pandan or banana. I also got the Zombie Killer, another rum-based drink with coconut, pineapple and cinnamon which I enjoyed more. This one was more creamy and better balanced. Overall the drinks are pretty straightforward the ambiance is fun. There are a good number of large tables (first-come, first-serve) and the lights which go off every so often was a cool touch!

    Last Rites was a pretty dang fun time. The ambiance is pretty sweet, love the feeling of being inside a plane. It was also hella cool how the entire place lights up if you order the right drink, really fun. My only small gripe is comparing it to something like Smuggler's Cove, the prices are the same, but the drinks here are very much smaller and less complex. Our waitress, totally great, she was friendly, funny, and super attentive even though it was busy. We ended up smashing through 5 drinks shared between the 2 of us, and they were all very tasty, except the Emerald Eclipse... to be fair to the waitress that suggested it, and Last Rites itself, I DESPISE mezcal, and just didn't realize that's what was in it. We tried to order the Permanent Eclipse but it was not available at the time, so she recommended the Eclipse. Mezcal should be erased from the surface of the earth, and should not be mentioned in any history books. Make it go away. Walked away with some super cool Mai Tai glasses, and we were more than a little tipsy when we started our trek back to BART. I could see myself coming back here with some friends, but hopefully they get some more rum based concoctions on the menu!

    Very cute bar. I would come back for a date night or to hang with friends. I especially like how there are different partitioned sections to sit in around the place for an intimate environment. The drinks were unique and nice to enjoy after a long week. The bartender also did a great job managing everyone sitting at the bar and throughout the venue.

    I LOVE Last Rites. This is such a great tiki-bar with over-the-top decorations , special effects, and strong cocktails. For the cocktails: If you're looking for a no-ABV mocktail, I would highly recommend the Golden Idol [5/5]. This is so good that every time I come, I order it! We also tried the No Doctor on Board [4/5] meant for two. It has a very strong alcoholic taste. My only complaint about Last Rites is that the service is SOOO slow for a bar. Every time I've gone around 10PM, I wait around 20 minutes only to get inside and see there is no seating.

    Went right at opening & had the best service. The vibe is of a crashed airplane with smoke and amazing furniture and jungle decor. Drinks were amazing and they have a great Mocktail menu too. Had the Last Rites & a few others, all drinks were great.

    We stopped by for a night cap on a Thursday night, and we were pleasantly surprised by bingo! Last Rites is a solid bar right off of Church and Market. They have lots of space, great seating, and fantastic cocktails. The bathroom was clean, nice. We got menus and bingo cards, ready to play. I got the Long Goodbye: Gin, strawberry, toasted coconut, cream, lemon, spices, seltzer. Absolutely fantastic, no notes. So creamy, easy to drink, had a touch of cardamom? Big fan. I liked how we could yap in our group while playing bingo. There were many rounds. While we didn't win, it was a hoot and a half! I will def be back with friends, I had such a great experience!

    My boyfriend and I came here for the first time and had a blast! Very cool ambience with the tiki vibes and giant skull wall haha. Kendl and Stephanie helped us and thats honestly what made our whole experience! They explained certain drinks and gave great recommendations based on our personal preferences for cocktails. We got a couple different drinks and they were all very tasty!! Overall great place, but again...it was all because of Kendl and Stephanie. Thank you both!!

    We had an awesome time with our friend group here. Great drinks, AWESOME decor. Best part was the door man though, Jason out here keeping all of us safe while we step outside. It was also very dark and my friends had to use a flashlight for the menu, which made me laugh so thank you.

    The best way I can describe this Tiki bar is that it's like Rainforest Cafe for adults. Dark, fun, and mysterious vibes inside with plenty of nooks for friends or couples to hang out. My partner and I got the Last Rites and Grifter's Game drinks and they were strong, sweet, and beautifully presented. The servers were friendly and I loved poring through the wide selection of drinks on the menu. The only slight con (if you think it is one) was that we sat by the skull and it would randomly spew smoke onto us every now and then lol.

    Halloween menu

    We hit up Last Rites just as they were opening on Halloween and the vibe was festive with scary movies and spidery decor. The setting is crashed airplane and the drinks are Tiki style. Sadly they had a limited menu for Halloween which did not include the drink I had planned on trying. Our waitress neither friendly nor helpful and the drinks were very light. When I questioned whether my drink was supposed to be all ice with a few sips of actual cocktail, I was told that the drinks were carefully measured. Overall, fun decor and vibe but the experience is ruined by the staff and service.

Each room has its own vibe. The front room has more of a nautical theme, down to the tv screen "portholes" showing fish swimming by. The middle room has more of a ship galley/pirate theme, and the back room has a tropical theme, complete with a koi pond. Drinks were good, huge rum selection and knowledgeable bartenders.

I'd heard the back bar opens after 7, but when I was there the doors magically parted at 5:30 so my hubs and I relocated to a private hut for a cozier final round. 2) Delicious drinks -- the menu offers a nice selection of tiki standards, new takes on old classics and some Pagan Idol originals. Each drink is built from fresh, house-made ingredients and all potent yet balanced on the palate. Many are rum-based but not all so there's some variety if rum isn't your thing. 3) Expert bartenders -- the fella who made my drinks knew his stuff and answered questions about the menu patiently without an ounce of attitude. When I decided I wanto venture off-menu for my second order, he whipped up a daiquiri variation that he intuited would fit my tastes based on preferences I shared (and nailed it). Will definitely come here for my next tiki fix.
