    Super fun theme! It's a next door to Crust pizza and they offer food if you order through the QR code. The bartenders were very attentive and the drinks are great.

    This place was nice and VERY LOUD. This is NOT a Tiki bar in its own right. It has TIki elements. They had a very limited Tiki drink menu. We sat at the bar. We were NOT a priority at all for any of the four bartenders behind there. We were able to squeeze out one drink from the bar and thought we should not try our luck further. We waited about 15 minutes to pay out. Nice, but "meh" experience overall.

    Colorful, Fun, and Relaxing Spot What a fun place! The atmosphere was vibrant and playful, with colorful decor that really set the tone for a great time. The outdoor area was a big highlight for me--there were games set up, making it easy to relax and have fun while enjoying the evening. TVs were placed all around, so catching the game was effortless. I wasn't sure what I wanted to drink, but the bartender was super helpful and created a custom drink similar to one I had seen at another restaurant. It was delicious! We visited this spot while waiting to head to the piano bar, but I would definitely come back again on its own. The mix of a fun atmosphere, great service, and unique drink creations made it a standout experience.

    This is a cute place if you're looking for just drinks. Came here after eating at one of the restaurants nearby. They don't serve food here. The inside is small but they have a pretty big patio space to chill out on. When it is busy, I would definitely suggest trying to go in and order at the bar because it could take awhile for a server to spot you. We were a pretty large group so we took turns just going inside and ordering. They serve cute drinks and have specials . This bar is connected to the dueling pianos spot so you could have two different vibes to your night.

    Went here for drinks and let me say it was pretty pricey. We went on a Monday night and very typical for Monday not crowded at all, a bit slow and kind of boring. The staff was not very engaging. We had a round of drinks wanted a second but my friend had to go up to the bar. I can't imagine if it would have been Friday night and super crowded. Drinks were ok, nothing special. Pricey about $15-20 per drink. They do not sell food but said we could get food from next door. From crust brewing, in that case might as well go next door! The place itself is very cute they had a table with a huge jenga and that seemed like fun, overall not impressed

    This place is unique ! I love the decoration and the whole theme with Tiki. The drinks are great, I had the volcano that is good for 2 people and it wasn't super sweet as I thought it would. This place is open late which is a plus. I recumbent this place and its in rosemonts heart.

    We walked over to this place after visiting the AMC. First impressions were not great. Security was overly weird and questioned our ids. A bit off putting. We get inside and the servers weren't nice or pleasant. Everything felt very rushed and when we asked for the recommendation of what's popular, the guy just said everything is and walked away. We had two drinks and decided to head outside to the game area. Once outside, we played Jenna and that was fun. The music was pretty great and is probably the only reason that I would return. The drinks were meh and expensive.

    First time hanging out in Rosemont entertainment district. My friend and fellow Yelp Elite was in town and booked a hotel near the area. We were out and about during Happy Hour and stopped by Pete's Tiki Bar. They have happy hour until 7pm. They have rotating daiquiris and a mudslide on menu. Kind of limited. On this occasion the mudslides machine wasn't working. We respectfully request they just make a non-frozen version. Both drinks were good. They dont serve food here but you can order from Crust restaurant next door. We were hungry and so we decided to leave to have dinner. Pete's Tiki is connected to adjoining dueling piano bar so we came back after having a dinner at Brazilian Steakhouse. If in the area, I would try again. My hurricane daiquiri was good but really wanted to try a mai tai so will be back. Forgot to mention that Trinidad was super helpful and informative about Pete's Tiki establishment.

    This is a nice little tiki bar that is co-located with a dueling piano bar. It has a nice covered patio area out front and an adequate dining area with high-top seating and a full bar with seating. The bar is marked with a big tiki out front and is dimly lit inside. The inside has a nice tropical vibe. The bar tenders were very friendly. It is located near the convention center and is in an entertainment district. There is free parking available, in front of the bar and within a reasonable walking distance. One cool thing about this bar is that you can go freely between both bars through the door that connects them. I took my tropical drink over to the dueling piano side to check it out over there for a bit. The bar has beer, wine, shots, daiquiris and of course signature tropical cocktail favorites. I ordered a painkiller, and a daiquiri. They were savory and delicious. This is a neat little spot in an area with a lot to do. This is one of the few, if any tiki bars in the Chicago area. I highly recommend checking this place out.

    Love the vibe of this place, We went on a weekday wasn't crowd but there was quite a few people. Bartender was cool and made some good strong drinks. Only boomer was that close early then we expected but we enjoyed the visit.

    If you want a fun drinking place before dinner or after in Rosemont, go to Pete's Tiki Tiki! It's right next to the piano bar you can go there after to listen to music but honestly the drinks here are great and definitely you feel after you leave the place! The servers are happy to be there and it's just a chill and fun vibe! What's not to love?!

One pays $5 per person in your group and the amount is later applied to your bill. The food menu is minimal and most items weren't available sadly. We got two orders of their pineapple salsa with taro chips. It was yummy but wasn't enough substance to match the drink levels. For drinks, our group got a wide variety. They have all sorts of flavor pairings to accommodate every guest. I got the Captain's Revenge after hearing the Pearl Diver was unavailable. It was good but not amazing. For my second drink, I got the Chocolate Banana Old Fashioned which I thoroughly enjoyed. I didn't hear anyone in our group be disappointed with what they ordered. Our server, Jazmine, was very knowledgable about the menu and asking the right questions to make sure what we each ordered would be something we liked. Overall, this was a fun experience and I am happy I finally got to visit! My experience was slightly tainted with how much was not available the night we visited.

The vibe is speakeasy-ish; the entrance is off the street in an alleyway but the interior is very nice, low light, and would be fun for a date night! The staff were attentive and very friendly. My friend got some shots, which were surprisingly good given they were kind of sweet, and I ordered the "mystic lamp" cocktail ($16) which was VERY memorable to me as someone that loves floral drinks -- it was very floral, slightly fruity, and had a lovely chunk of lychee it came with which was delicious! The drink was decent sized too; I've been charged a lot more for much less drink at other speakeasies (those of which I don't plan to visit again any time soon haha). In my opinion, this spot has the perfect combo of great drinks, nice ambiance, cool speakeasy-vibes, but also cheerfulness given the tiki-theme inside. Would definitely rec a visit to anyone visiting Chicago who likes cool bars!

I was excited for the experience having heard how busy it gets, blah blah. These positive reviewers need to seek out other tiki bars. After you negotiate the alley entrance and go down dangerously dark stairs, you are met with crazy boring decor. I kept thinking there had to be more right? The whole point of a tiki bar is to strike a mood, but hanging a very few polynesian masks on the wall, putting up a grass facade over the bar and dressing the servers in vaguely polynesian outfits is sad. I've seen private tiki bars at people's homes that are more exciting. Add to this a comparably boring music selection played far too loud over boomy lo-fi speakers and you'll wonder what's going on here. So what about the food and drink? Completely uninspired for anyone who's had more than a mai tai before in their life. About a dozen extremely common drink choices is all you get!! No specials, that's it. When I asked if this was the whole cocktail menu, the server said it was but they have a full bar so you can get anything you want. Well, I could get that service at just about any bar in the world, so big deal. Maybe it would be better if you sat at the bar and chatted up the bartender. One could also go taste their rum selections and other cocktails in the Bamboo Room, but I hate that kind of elitist nonsense. That's never been what tiki bars were about. The drinks we sampled were okay at best. Even the namesake 3 Dots and A Dash cocktail was lackluster and used cheap cherries for the dots instead of classic Luxardos. (If you know, you know) The appetizers were okay, but way overpriced. 5 tiny spring rolls for $18. Come on guys, enough already. I'd rather go to the bar at the Polynesian Hotel at Disney than return here. This place is a hard pass.

We ordered the Zombie (a trio of light, gold, and dark rum with lemon, lime, passion fruit, and bitters - limit two per customer), the Navy Grog (lime, grapefruit, honey liquor, light rum, dark rum, and Demerara rum), the Painkiller (Pusser's rum, fresh nutmeg, pineapple, orange, and cream of coconut), and the Pineapple Coconut Delight (white rum, coconut, orgeat, pineapple, and lemon). The drinks were very good and I liked the sweetness in the drinks we chose. The drinks that we were served were very strong. I can see why some of them have a two drink limit. Ron kept telling us about the his brother who cooks in the kitchen. He is a classically trained chef, but we were unable to try any of the food because the kitchen is closed on Monday. Overall, the Pau Hana Lounge is a nice bar with a neighborhood feel to it. I recommend Pau Hana Lounge, just be prepared to get a lot of alcohol from these drinks.

When you get your Banana Spider (or the Scorpion, or whatever other tropical mixed drink you prefer) it will come in a beautiful ceramic tiki mug. You might as well drink it with your eyes closed, not because it's that good (though it is) but also because it's too dark to see a thing in this fading 60-year dive which is thrifty with electricity. There are only three lightbulbs going at all times, two of which illuminate the fishtanks. A gloriously garlanded plastic Buddha basks under a third as if it were the Hawaiian sun. If you ask for help finding the restroom the bartender will briefly turn on one more light, the "Kings" light above the men's room or the "Queens" light above the women's room. Not to say this place is stingy... if you're a bar snack afficionado, this place ranks tops with complimentary bowls of mixed pretzel sticks, potato chips, and bugles- which must have been cryogenically preserved because I thought they stopped making them in the '70s. Though this lounge features prominently on the specialty niche business review site CriTiki, it has somehow eluded Yelp all these years, which is a shame. These days it's pretty quiet, and if you go on a weeknight you'd need to bring your own Tiki party to take the place of the young and the Polish who have fled the neighborhood for lower taxes in the west suburbs. Still worth a visit.
