    Nice cozy quiet little spot tucked away. You could almost miss this gem... The food took a little long to come out due to a printer malfunction but the staff made up for it with an apology and guacomole and chips on the house. The food was so delicious. I would change absolutely nothing about it. Fresh and tasty... Id go back anytime Im in the area.

    Decent vegan options here!We visited and got two kinds of Bao buns - a mushroom one & the marinated tofu one (the mushroom was better than the tofu)We also got the tofu poke bowl which was delicious! Lots of toppings and lots of flavor.None of the sliders could be made vegan bc of the Hawaiian rolls and the dumplings also couldn’t be made vegan, but there were some other vegan appetizers - the corn nuggets for sure.Service was great - the waitress was vegetarian and allergic to eggs (if I remember correctly) so she was knowledgeable and very helpful!Overall, I wish they would put in a little more effort to make things more vegan adaptable.

    Found this little gem on a recent visit to Rockaway Beach. It was rather cold out and I ducked inside to warm up and grab a bite. Dry January didn’t limit me - bartender whipped up a very delicious, soothing Tiki Toddy to take the chill off sans alcohol. Chose the onigiri for a quick bite and it was amazing. Great service.

    Loco Moco and Poke Bowl.Weve been going here since our son was 1 , hes 4 now.The Moco is new and on certain dates they have live music . Its a cool vibe , the outside indoor area is new to us this year . Definitely will come back later this year.

    Perfect Tiki Bar. Delicious classic Mai Tai and these little chicken bites that hit the protein spot. We really appreciate the solid service and quality music(with appropriate volume). Highly recommend for small bites and tasty drinks before or after the beach. Just note, if you sit outside in the enclosed patio there are some fruit flies that may want a sip of your delicious drink too, but that should be expected!

    The music, locations, and ambiance is legit. Tony gave us a wonderfully kind welcome. The waitress, Meg, was sweet & knowledgeable of gluten free options. Actually, she WAS the GF menu since there were none to offer. Id suggest a dedicated fryer to expand limited gluten free options (I enjoyed the jackfruit/guac taco). Would visit again if they do.

    Great Place! Nice atmosphere!Delicious food! Be back for sure!

  • Review 8 (2023-08-19 - Rating: 4)

    We really enjoyed the place. The drinks were lovely and it was a surprising little place - we went when it was pouring with rain so it didn’t feel very Hawaii but when the weather is nice I’m sure it does!

  • Review 9 (2024-08-11 - Rating: 5)

    Great atmosphere, friendly staff. The food is great, a nice selection of bites and a solid poke bowl.

    My love and I had our lunch date at the Tiki Bar. Atmosphere was was cozy. We ordered chicken sliders with the perfect heat and sweetness! We ordered a Zombie for a refreshment. The fries were fresh with a nice crisp! We will be back 😋

    Cute decor, huge portions

  • Review 22 (2022-04-09 - Rating: 5)

    The food was AMAZING! The decor was so cool, and the waiters were very nice. The music was very well chosen, and the drinks were super tasty. Also the service was great! We only waited 5 minutes for the food to start coming out. Definitely a place to stop at if you’re in the area. (The coconut fried shrimp are a must have). Adjusted dishes to make them kid friendly (hotdog and crispy fries for my picky eater son). Onigiri was also super tasty.

    My daughter and I stopped by on cinco de Mayo to get a couple of margaritas, it was our first time….,We absolutely loved it. So much so that we went home and came back an hour later with some friends. Great atmosphere, great food and drinks, and the staff is the best…can’t wait to go back.

    Great environment, clean and organized. Workers are very friendly and always attentive. Awesome cocktail . Happy hour Monday through Saturday from 12pm to 5pm . Must try their mojitos and frozen margaritas. Highly recommend their chicken teriyaki dumpling and tiki fries.

  • Review 28 (2023-08-14 - Rating: 4)

    Food was good; service ok... nothing to rave about nor was it totally disappointing. Very accessible train station and 2 blocks from beach. Id visit there again.

  • Review 29 (2023-05-18 - Rating: 5)

    Great Hospitality and even better Tiki cocktails both traditional and modern. Owner Amy was great and the same goes for Zoey behind the bar. Fun afternoon. We will be back soon.

    Food is very good, at the poke bowl and chicken sliders we ordered and drinks were outstanding. Nick was our bartender and every drink he made was delicious.

  • Review 31 (2022-10-18 - Rating: 5)

    Great place for a late lunch and afterwork libations. Try the poké bowl with their colorful and fruity Poseidon Punch. The ambiance and service are absolutely outstanding!

    I was here for their Karaoke on Wednesday nights, and had an absolute blast.The drinks were delicious (and strong!), and the staff was on top of their game with both drink and karaoke service.The crowd was cool, and diverse, and friendly.

  • Review 33 (2022-06-19 - Rating: 5)

    The food was awesome and they even had medallas!! Definitely coming back.

  • Review 34 (2021-08-20 - Rating: 5)

    I honestly had doubts about this spot but since the Rockaway’s short on options, decided to give it chance and let me tell you, definitely wasn’t disappointed.The roasted chicken poke bowl had a lot of flavor and was very light, filling, and healthy in its own way. The pork dumpling were pretty good too.Order was quick too, no more than 12 mins to receive the food. Took it togo and I wished I stayed to try the drinks because of all of them looked pretty amazing.I’ll definitely be coming back!

  • Review 35 (2022-05-05 - Rating: 5)

    Lovely little island treasure! The Shrimp Dumplings and Spring Rolls were delectable...and..the Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl main course was a real treat paired with an amazingly delicious Lakas Nectar! SOOOO YUM...

    Rockaway Tiki is awesome! The cocktails are so good, service is great and super fast. Awesome vibe and the décor is rockin.. a very beachy tiki feel. Great place to go after the beach to relax and have a cold tasty drink. Will be back again for sure!

  • Review 42 (2021-08-30 - Rating: 5)

    Fun and tasty spot, much better than it has to be! In fact, the fries with togarashi seasoning were excellent, arriving very hot and very crisp! The dumplings were also tender and delicious, and naturally the drinks were well made and strong, often using freshly squeezed juices -- we had our Zombies and Singapore Sling in the festive tiki cups, required a deposit to keep them from walking off ... Outdoor seating is available, but we opted for an indoor table, seated at a lovely patterned banquette with fun décor surrounding ... Highly recommended beach stop

    I love this place will definitely be where I eat when I go to rockaway, the service is so good our server was very attentive and kind, and the food and drinks are so so so good and the fresh tuna is really fresh!

    I was so sad when the Thai restaurant closed! I enjoyed a poke bowl and lettuce wraps. The staff (Susan, Pineapple) were attentive and friendly. Nice drink menu and good Rockaway vibes. Great addition to the neighborhood.

  • Review 47 (2021-09-07 - Rating: 5)

    Delicious food and good people. Highly recommend for nice lunch with friends. Qr scans with table numbers are used for ordering. Drinks are ordered at the bar. Poke bowls are the favorite. But the fried tofu buns were amazing as well. Two thumbs up for sure.

    My evening here was as tropical and lively as the lovely Rockaway beaches of New York. My server Ty was on his A game and gave me the best Rec’s as well as bringing the most aloha vibes. The sauce with the dumplings was on the saltier side but complimented the dumplings well and the Kim chi that is served with the hot dogs and fries is done so well and is full of flavor and not overpowering in any way. I had the crunchy chicken sliders and they were the perfect blend of crunchy and saucy! Such an amazing place with great drinks and service and I cannot stress how awesome Tyler was. And really a total hottie!

They also have non-alcoholic drinks. Theres indoor dining and outdoor dining.We had Zombies and Singapore slings.They have these deep fried mushroom bao that were really good!The pork dumplings were also very good.Togarashi Fries were extra YUM!If we had not been stuffing our faces all day I would have tried poke and more dishes.I thought it was weird that my Singapore sling didnt have any fancy garnish but we really like this spot!
