The San Fernando Valley has many names. Some people refer to it as “the Valley.” Others may call it “North Hollywood.” The “No” in Tiki No is a reference to North Hollywood. The Valley has the oldest Tiki bar in So-Cal, which is the Tonga Hut. Now the Valley has the newest one with Tiki No. Visiting two great Tiki bars is totally worth the trip to North Hollywood!
Tiki No opened in 2010 and business has been great so far. Two reasons:
The decor at Tiki No is incredible…
(well, that’s because it was designed by Bamboo Ben)
Also, the drinks…
Tiki No has its own original concoctions, which my friends and I had to try. It was happy hour, which is from 5:00 to 8:00 at Tiki No. Our drinks were only seven bucks!
My buddy Scotty ordered a Coconut Mojito…
I went with the Chief Lapu Lapu…
Joe kicked it old school with a Painkiller…
These were some really unique and very tasty drinks!
I’ve visited Los Angeles several times and I keep forgetting just how big the entire area is. The San Fernando Valley is huge and for many people it’s home. With Tiki No, they don’t have to travel too far for a little Tiki escape.
