    Lightning tiki
    Diane W.

    Came here after attending a craft festival on Corey Avenue. My husband is a tiki bar aficionado, so we have gone to many. This was a fun choice with excellent food. A typical setup with thatched roof bar, lots of tikis and overall fun atmosphere. We were able to pick from their standard menu as well as their brunch menu, and we picked from the latter. We ordered drinks: a captain and diet for hubby, and a quarantini for me which was light and tasty. We shared an appetizer sized ahi tuna, perfectly prepared and served with seaweed salad. Delicious! Our entree was a tasty crab cake served on a pretzel bun and served with tater tots ( our choice), and according to Tom " it was the bomb", as the "combined taste was so good". Our server was just okay; not overly friendly and a bit annoyed when I asked if they served mojitos ( evidently not, had I looked at the menu...) Prices were a bit lower than I'd expect near the beach in St. Pete.

    Greek salad with potato salad. The traditional Greek salad.

    Yesterday we went to the Corey Arts Festival and stopped in for a quick lunch. Truly a tiki bar and sat at the bar for lunch. First time in so I always like to gauge based on the bar. They have indoor seating as well as outside. Large place with lots of TVs. I ordered the spiked strawberry lemonade - yummy and light. I enjoyed the Greek salad and honey had the Aloha Chicken sandwich with fries. Both were delish and large portions. Service was great and so was the food. Next time you're at St. Pete beach stop in!

    My daughter Nicole left a review about her 30th birthday party here at this unfortunate establishment. Kim, the owner of Twisted Tiki, decided to rebuttal, so as we all know there are three sides to a story, her side, her side and the truth. All I will say is... Do not have a party here and let KIM decorate for you!!! Decorations were just awful! I offered to do it myself but Kim said "Trust me I do this all the time"...In this picture is an example of a backdrop that was used and she had it 4 feet off the floor. Who does that? The backdrop was 8 feet tall. I didn't wanna see her outdated wallpaper underneath our backdrop. I told her the most important thing was having lots of balloons, there were maybe 20. The woman has no eye for Decor at all!!!!!!! Plus, she said (in her rebuttal) she came in on her day off to do our decorations Am I to feel sorry for her that she showed up on her day off when she owns the business? How accommodating seriously? My daughter was not an hour late we asked her to come after 7 o'clock to make sure everybody was there. She was there by 7:15. As far as Nikki's boyfriend, YES! he was very drunk and he very much acted out of hand and we are very sorry that that situation happened. We would have apologized to the table and the DJ "JONNY B" had he not kept going on and on and disrupting the whole night intermittently about this, calling us out even after her boyfriend left (without incident, I might add)...He was never charged or even spoken to about this situation. But as the cops said, Twisted Tiki & Jonny B took it out of context due to the fact that the DJ was encouraging people to throw things at him for fun, AT A BAR!!! Nikki's boyfriend doesn't drink very much so this hit him hard and he SCREWED UP, but had the DJ just shut up about it (once his statement was given to the cops) this review would never even been considered, but him and his 10 followers, who were drunk also that night I might add, made it to the point where we left early and we DID pay for everything!!! When we asked the waitress, if this was the final bill, she said yes! Police reports are public record. September 3, 2025!!!

    Have to add to my previous review. My friend and I stopped in for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. The holiday decorations were fun and festive. The atmosphere friendly. I enjoyed a rum eggnog garnished with jimmies and a candy cane which was decadently delicious (thanks Amy). The Ahi tuna with seaweed with all the tasty accompaniments was a bit tough but did not disappoint. Will definitely order again. My friend ordered the Pineapple Express. What a dish. It's half of a fresh pineapple stuffed with chicken Teriyaki and rice topped with pineapple chunks and sesame seed. Both entrees were truly delicious. The music being played by the customers was so good that we stayed for another drink just to enjoy the day with fun loving folks. The friendly establishment on Corey Ave is a perfect location. After a fun time and good food we we were able to shop the numerous local businesses. Free street parking availability.

    Delicious!

    We decided to explore the st pete area. We mentioned to a bartender that we were going to head to Twisted Tiki. She started raving about this place & said we would really like it. They were not wrong. The staff was super friendly, a variety of tiki drinks & food. We did not have food, but the menu had plenty of options & daily specials. I enjoyed a watermelon tiki drink. Would definitely get again!

    Great spot. Must try. Do you have to ask for Kyle? And you should go on a Sunday when the market is open.

    Wow. I expected more from a place rated 4 stars. To be…read morespecific we went to the beach bar because the restaurant wasn't open yet. The very first issue was parking. Parking is minimum $50 a day + fees. A cocktail? For an hour? Haha no. I'm being mildly disingenuous. The bar staff (and likely restaurant staff) will give you a QR code to validate all $58 of your parking. But it made me acutely miss a time when you could just park and patronize an establishment. Just don't forget to validate your parking, cuz they sure didn't ask preemptively. They were celebrating a 3-day grand reopening when we went on Saturday. There was *one* artisan in their market space. The music was pumping loud enough to not be able to converse. Although it drew a crowd of younger folks, there was not much to behold from the "grand" reopening. Not even s cost of paint. The beach bar may not have been part of the sprucing up idk, I didn't see anything worth celebrating. I meant to look at the size of the cocktail cup that we got (small), but $13-14 for a cocktail is highway robbery for the end result. And $18 for 6 wings ($3 a wing) was a little disappointing. I expected better of a Hilton adjoined restaurant. No one part was terrible. It was just the way they matched up - loud, expensive, small portions. If you're loud maybe you're cheap and tasty. If you're expensive, maybe you're fast and delicious. This was all the worst parts of a bar that doesn't care about its patrons' economics. A bar that wants to serve tourists with mediocrity and move on to the next crop of people who will never be there again. If you're a tourist it'll probably be fine, if overpriced. If you're a local, don't bother. To be fair, we should ask if there was anything good. hm ... no. We won't be returning. 3 stars is probably generous.
