Humuhumu’s description

Hula's Modern Tiki opened in Phoenix in late 2009, and comes from the same minds behind the hit Hula's restaurants in Monterey

 and Santa Cruz

. The concept here is a bit different—while the Monterey and Santa Cruz locations have more of a surf-meets-tiki feel, the aesthetic here is a mix of midcentury modern and tiki.
The dominant feature of the space is a massive, hexagonal window that looks straight out of a '70s sci-fi film set (the building actually dates to 1965). The interiors are all sleek, but executed with a variety of organic materials to bring a sort of barely-primitive feel. The indoor area features a large bar, and there is outdoor dining.
There is at least one large Tiki tOny tiki. Tiki mugs, especially from Munktiki, fill cases around the restaurant. Volcano bowl drinks are available, and drinks are served in glassware with the Hula's tiki logo. Like the other Hula's locations, it has won raves for its food.

At it current location, Hula's is a fairly typical restaurant/bar with cement walls and ceilings, visible ducts, and garage doors opening to the patio. There's some Witco Tikis on the walls and an actual Tiki room in the back, but we didn't get seated there. Decent food, decent painkiller. No branded merchandise, but that's not a problem. Wouldn't bother going again.

This is a very contemporary bar for the trendy yuppie 20 something-year-old‘s. Not incredibly tiki like. We live very close by, and don’t go often because we find a disappointment as far as the tiki bar goes. The least they could do is bring in some good tiki mugs and more tiki decor. Just too yuppie for me !!

The food is really the shining star at this place, it’s SO SO SO good. The drinks are fine and the staff is super nice.
