An older, somewhat Polynesian Pop tiki bar and restaurant right on the main island of Bora Bora in French Polynesia. Some carved tikis are on site that look like they could have come out of Oceanic Arts in Whittier, CA.
Yes it's a tourist trap but a cool one. We stopped with a private tour while on a off-road jeep tour around the island. We had the whole place to ourselves and it was pretty cool. Of course we drank bloody marys! It was before noon so... seemed like the thing to do. I enjoyed the history of the place and thought it was well thought out architecturally. I hope to return in a few months, Spring of 17.
Hey H:
You are close, the owner is from Downey, CA. Has (or had) a big wooden board outside with all the names of the celebs that have been there. You can get there by Le Truck from anywhere on the island.
You don't see a restaurant like this everyday, pretty unique place. Sand floor, wood stump chairs, waterfall to wash in, in the restroom. Food wasn't bad at all. Whatever the local fishermen brought in that day, usual burgers and fries for those who eat at McDonald's wherever they go in the world. Has a gift shop with pretty good stuff, but get it there, as there is no mail order. Had a good time.
If you want fine dining, eat at your hotel.
