    Howler Whip
    Nicoline C.

    Good service. Great happy hour drinks. I had the Howler Whip! Dole whip with spiced rum. Yum.

    Rum Punch

    I don't normally give 3 star reviews, and tbh i'd place is not bad but there are definitely other better Tiki Bar options in Vegas. I wouldn't even really consider this place a bar, it's absolutely more of a lounge. The drinks were good & responsibly priced. Each tiki drink was around 16-19 dollars. Our server was super sweet & attentive. She made recommendations which I always love! Outside of that, it just felt, alright? The drinks were tasty but there wasn't anything too special about the place.

    New tiki inside the Excalibur. Decent size. Gambling at the bar. Frozen drinks and mixed drinks. Plenty of seats but for some reason no waitress? It was 4pm on a Friday. We had to move to the bar to get served. Bartender wasnt super friendly. I went with a miami vice and it was tasty. The music... not the jame I want at tiki. Overall though good addition to the Excalibur.

    If it's not happy hour, I'd rather tik myself elsewhere next time. The Tiki Bar is a new beverage-only establishment at Excalibur Hotel & Casino. I went along with a tiki-enthusiast friend from out of town to check it out after dinner. Apparently there were enough signs for him to navigate us there, but if you're entering from the pedestrian bridge from New York-New York, just hug the right wall and you should be good. I was concerned early on when my buddy tried to ask for a Chi Chi, which is basically a Piña Colada but with vodka instead of rum, and they just wouldn't do it since they have their preset cocktail menus and no way to charge for customizations on their point of sale. He ended up ordering Howler Whip, which comes with bourbon and pineapple whip, subbed out the bourbon for vodka, and called it good enough. And then when that (and my other friend's whip-containing drink) came out, the whip was not mixed with the drink and the server didn't say anything about stirring, which just seemed weird as you can start off with a mouthful of booze and little else. I simply ordered the Rum Punch ($18.00), a blend of three rums and three citrus juices. The macaw mug was cute, but the drink wasn't great. Admittedly, I don't have experience with this cocktail in particular, but I have definitely had richer, more cohesive cocktails. The coconut from the Malibu rum was prominent early but seemed to vanish later, suggesting to me that they didn't mix the drink properly. On top of that, the flavor was just light for most of the time. If you can get these things for $8.00 at the daily 5pm-7pm happy hour, then they're actually not that bad for a cocktail on the Strip. But I'm definitely not planning to order these for full price in the future if I should end up at The Tiki Bar again. And by the way, they need to turn the volume down a notch, the bass down three notches, and consider playing actual tiki-like music instead of just some mishmash of older songs.

    Cute new bar in the Excalibur! I'd call it more of a tiki-themed lounge instead of a full-on "Tiki Bar" but tomato tomahto. My favorite part is they currently have happy hour daily 5-7pm, with Specialty Cocktails only $8! The drinks were fun and tasty. The interior was cute and comfortable with nice nautical lighting. Plenty of seating in the lounge area, nice big stage - hopefully they'll start doing shows or karaoke (since this used to be a karaoke bar)? I think we maybe arrived during a shift change because it took awhile for the bartenders to come out away from a corner where they were congregating. And then it did take a bit to make the drinks but hey, it happens, it's a new bar with lots of new drinks to learn. Enjoyed this spot overall and would recommend to those who are already in the Excalibur & vicinity and want a fun tropical drink but probably not worth going way out of your way for.

    Eh, it's OK for a stop for a break if you're at the Excalibur. The drinks were trash unfortunately. My coconut margarita tasted like a 7-Up with coconut flavoring thrown in. Mr B's mai tai tasted like straight fruit juice with cheap rum. Super disappointing. The service was great, and the video draw poker was fun. The theming ambiance is cute in a kitchy way. Only recommend going between 5-7p for $8 cocktails if you're desperate. The Tiki Bar is not Tiki, it's more "Taki." (Tacky that is)

    Stopped in here around 2pm for drinks and took a bit for the bartender to come over. While the casino was bustling, it was very quiet at the bar. The bartender ended up being friendly but I thought the drinks were very average. The flavor profile was not distinct and on the verge of being bland. They were smaller than it seemed they would've been and no fancy glasses like shown on the menu for whatever reason. Also wanted to try the flight and was told they weren't making them that day? We tried the rum punch, coconut margarita and mai tai...there was just no wow factor and quite honestly for the money per drink, you'd get a better drink at a casino bar (even comped).

    I love tiki bars but this is not one of them. They say it's a "tiki bar" but the ambiance is mid. The drinks aren't good. The only thing they have going for them is the Dole Whip. I liked the old bar better. Service was fine.

    This place is meh. Didn't order any food but the drinks were ok and the live band was meh. The service was also not great. There is a dance floor but it's also meh.

    Kitschy but fun! Drinks were good, as were the happy hour prices. Our server was... "unenthusiastic."

    We love our Tiki bars and this place just opened 2 weeks ago inside Excalibur so had to stop by. Cute interior with live music at night. Crystal our bartender was friendly and made a great cocktail. #Tikitriathlon continues dining, drinking & shopping. Not sure I would call this a Tiki Bar more a Tropical inspired Casino Bar. No Swizzle Sticks & no mugs !!

    Cool vibe here at the Tiki Bar. It's located inside Excalibur. Great decor and great drink collection. We went at happy hour and the prices were pretty good. Bartender was super helpful and got us started on some kool drinks. We met some friends here played video poker then left but we will be back !

    Decor

    We gave this new tiki bar a try. We liked the decor! There were cute hanging tiki lamps throughout. The bartender was friendly. They only comp very cheap drinks when you're playing at the bar, not the tiki drinks. I had the Painkiller and it was okay. More like Golden Tiki than Frankie's because it had a ton of ice.

    Zebra seats?

The cocktail game is real and we had some excellent, beautiful drinks. There was a live singer some nights. (Lapa & Luckley's have happy hours a few days a week) Also, I don't know how often this happens, but while in the casino we were given a buy one get one coupon for drinks here!

The go-to at his place is their Detroit style pizza. Its a square cut, deep dish pan pizza that's pretty delicious. Everyone raves about it. I love it too but I think it's a little heavy on the sauce. That's just me though. The real accolade from me comes from a time that I showed up in a group of maybe 20+ people. Luckily for us the bar was mostly empty at the time and we ended up filling up every seat at the bar and most of the tables. Even though they didn't see us coming they handled our group like a champ, pretty much got all our orders right and got our food and drinks out in decent time. Kudos to them for that! Overall, a good dive bar experience especially if you're into tiki. I'm only giving 4 stars because it's not a 5 star restaurant or 5 star craft cocktail bar so as to set everyone's expectations realistically. It's a good spot though, go check them out!

They had live music on Saturday nights that starts right at 10p. After we got our IDs checked, we walked in and were immediately overwhelmed. It was very loud, very busy, and looked like your typical dive bar, which was cool. There were no seats in the front of the bar, at the bar, or even the tables in the back. After ordering our pizza, we finally found seats to eat near the pool tables in the back. We ordered the Champagne & Reefer, which is their supreme pizza. We were hungry so this pizza hit the spot. To be completely honest, I think my friend and I did not enjoy this place because I think we were the youngest at this bar. Everyone around us seemed to be having a great time and we were happy for them. We were slightly overwhelmed and felt like we needed a bar menu. We ended up just skipping alcohol all together at this place. I might want to try this place again with a bigger group of people. I see that they have a beer list online so I'll definitely look at that the next time I stop in.

The only downside is that it did take awhile. I would definitely come back.
