Fodor's Expert Review Tiki Bar Tahiti
El Raval
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Don’t let the 50s diner-style booths, funky-looking barmen or multicolor walls fool you, this place is serious about their South Pacific--inspired cocktails. Owned by the same man responsible for neighborhood institution Negroni, resident mixologists are so keen to have patrons get their “Tiki” on that every week a highlighted cocktail is half price for anyone willing to give it a taste. Rum is a specialty, so come prepared for mighty mixes of ginger, citric fruits, and nutty flavoring in oddly shape glasses and wacky mugs. And, if you’re really lucky, a nifty paper umbrella, too.
