Luau Larry's in Avalon, CA

Luau Larry's has been open since 1988, and has a strong party vibe. The bar is dark, has lauhala-covered walls and lots of bamboo, and a few neon signs advertising beers. There is a "cave room" booth that has artificial rock walls. The signature drink is the strong "Wiki Wacker," which comes with a palm frond hat. Other drinks on the menu are modern tropicals, tending toward the sweet and strong end. The food offerings are of the burger & sandwich sort, with some fresh seafood including oyster shooters.

For the closest thing to a tiki bar on the island, it�s not a bad joint. The drinks are, ok, definitely not the best mai tai I�ve had, but not the worst. The decor had a fun vibe, and the do have one �hidden� table that�s pretty dark and fun. I was sad that they didn�t have any tiki mugs to take home, but there is a pretty cool straw hat you get when you order the whiky whacker. If you�ve never been, give it a shot, but I don�t know if I�ll give it another go on my way back out...

Definitely felt that this is a pretty regular bar that serves Tiki drinks. The service was friendly, the food was tasty, and there were a few interesting drinks...but missing that Tiki magic.
