As a west coaster, I thought we had the lock on cool tiki bars. I was pretty wrong. Hello Hi…read moretakes tiki up about 3 notches. I mean, the legit standards done very well, home versions of standards, some great concoctions of their own, the BEST design for your own atmosphere wants too. Booth? They have that. Cool bar? Yep. Hightop to people watch from? Got it. Corner stage area? Sure. Separate intimate room with cool tiki decor? That too. So, you can have cool tiki place (seen a few of them), you can have an on point cocktail game (tasted a few of them), and you might have good service (experienced that too). But all three in one place? Rare. All three as perfect as you can get? Super rare. I would have said only in CA, but, Sioux Falls has it in The Hello Hi. 100%, the best around.

The bad: Once you get over the cool glasses you realize that you just paid 13 dollars for an absolutely packed glass of ice. GF Couldn't even get a sip out using a straw on the first pull. By the second pull, beverage was gone. Way overpriced for what you get which in essence is a tall glass of ice with a splash of booze. Sad.

At the Carpenter Bar, the lights are low, there is minimal seating, and it's easy to just slow down, sip on your drink, and enjoy your evening. If you're looking for a Busch light or a vodka Red Bull, this probably isn't your scene, but if you appreciate the finer things and attention to detail with your spirits, definitely try to get a table or a seat at the bar here. I will definitely go back. This Three-Quarter Nelson cocktail is essentially a whiskey sour with a little amaretto softening the spirit and adding such a delicious nutty element to the drink.

The potato and shrimp were overly cooked. I bit the potato and it was no good, way to soft like puree kinda I couldn't eat it plus didn't taste good . The shrimp looked like the Walmart shrimp same for the sausage small and overly cooked( sorry I always have seafood boils and never gotten small shrimp or sausage like I did here maybe it's just me but looked like the Walmart shrimp ) . Crab legs was good though . Also the girls were never rude but they need to be more welcoming barely smiling kinda serious all the time we didn't feel welcomed to be honest and didn't check up on us really and it was not busy that day , I understand when it's busy it's kinda hard but yeah definitely not busy when I went .

There really isn't a venue in the area with the cozy, intimate atmosphere that serves true craft cocktails and a creative menu of small bites and desserts, so The Revelry is a much-needed addition to Okoboji and Spirit Lake. Jason and Kim put their heart and souls into this business and it shows. Aside from the joy I get in supporting local, it's such a fun experience.

The booths are small, but every seat tells a story as students have carved their initials into the wood. The outdoor patio is spacious and a great place to hang out when it's warm. They do not serve food and take cash only (there is an ATM inside). However, you are allowed to bring food from other restaurants inside to eat. You can also purchase a mix-and-match six pack to-go.

To refuel both my energy and hunger level, the double cheeseburger was very enticing (no regrets have been made). The buns were nice and soft.

Fries were also good and salted pretty nice.. could use a bit more crunch to it. Malt melted a bit too fast in the heat but nevertheless, the chocolate flavored dessert was delicious. Good to note that I had also tried my friend's cheese curds, I believe, and they were uniquely delicious with the seasoning, flavorfully on par with the cheeseburger. Be sure to try them out.
