    If you love tiki bars, this tiny spot is considered one of the best in the country, according to tiki bar review community Critiki. Deceptively strong drinks, kitschy decor, and a rich history.

    A tiki essential! Ray's Mistake is the signature drink. Stealth is the strongest. Blood and Sand or Uga Booga get the bar chanting. Spin the wheel if you can't decide. And remember, CASH ONLY!

    Bring cash and come a little or you might have to wait a few mins to get in. A lot of fun drinks and if you can't decide ask to spin the wheel. Order the 'Uga Booga' for fun.

    All the grandpas in America had an estate sale to get ride of all their old island decor, and now it's at Tiki Ti. Brilliant atmosphere. Boozy drinks.

    Lovely little place off Sunset. A friend took me here and we had a drink while watching the wind up bull run across the bar as they were made. Very fun experience. Friendly bar goers too.

    This historic Hollywood tiki mainstay was originally opened by Ray Buhen in 1961. The 12 seater bar has an extensive menu, eclectic door, and is known for a lax take on indoor smoking. 92 cocktails! Read more

    Cash only, watch the televisions to see what is actually in some of the cocktails. Have the Uga Booga and watch as the whole bar yells to keep the rum flowing.

    Definitely worth a stop-in. Most of the rum drinks taste effectively the same, but it's a super unpretentious way to cool off on a weekend afternoon.

    Outside it's a black box, inside it's a colorful bar. An open door to a parallel universe filled with dangerous and delicious cocktails.

    Cute kitschy tropical bar with good music. The drinks are all at least 10$ and very sweet. Nice place to chill with a friend

    Ray Buhen opened Tiki Ti in 1961. By then he was a veteran bartender of LA’s prolific tropical bar scene. He created the Blood and Sand for actor Tyrone Power while bartending at the Dresden Room.

    Looks like a Rainforest Cafe shoved into a broom closet and set on fire. One drink will get you super tipsy. Weird but awesome crowd. My new fave hangout anytime they are open.

    Cash only but they have an ATM. The drinks are strong so one drink and 1 to 2 rum punches and you will be on your ass.

    Cocktails that knock you on your butt. Not always open as it's run by a family. Also, smoking allowed indoors.

    The max capacity is about 15 people. I think my college dorm room was bigger than this bar. Great for Saturday day drinking. Can't make up your mind? Spin the drink wheel & let fate pick your poison.

    LA (Drink) Leave your car behind to go to this hidden hole in the wall Tiki bar, where the drinks are strong and the space is limited.
