"A 21st-century spin on the tiki bars and restaurants of the 1950s and 1960s, Hula’s dispenses tiki cocktails and Island-inspired dishes, as well as American fare with a tropical twist. The menu offers something for everybody: classic Hawaiian dishes such as Loco Loco as well as luau pork sliders, spicy Thai fish cakes, poke, and Island flavor-inflected burgers. These are great places to informally pull a few tables together, but for a private party, consider reserving the dimly lit and wonderfully atmospheric Tiki Room, which takes parties of 12 to 40 people." - Nikki Buchanan
