Jungle Bird is where it's at. I went twice during my visit in May of 2017. The staff is friendly, to the point of helping me plan a day trip to San Francisco. The atmosphere is perfect. Dark and cozy and not trying too hard. Exotica music and great drinks. I just wish they sold some mugs!!!

If your in Sacramento, you need to hit up The Jungle Bird. It's about as solid as a tiki bar gets! Try the Planter's Punch. Here's my full review....

Love this place, I visited on a Saturday evening and had a great experience. A friend and I sampled 4 drinks each and they were all made to perfection, garnished perfectly and served in the appropriate drinking vessel. The music was great, the service was spot on. I'll be back as soon as I can get back to Sacramento.

I'd like to think that I just caught these guys on a bad night. Jungle Bird definitely gets the look right, and the food and drinks are both above average. But, the mood when I visited was definitely subpar. The music was thumping R&B, and the crowd, while not exactly college kids tossing back jaeger shots, was loud, drunk, and, in my opinion, not in the tiki spirit. Service was meh. I'd give this place a second try in the hope that this was just an off night.

We had a great time at Jungle Bird, which overall was above par. The location in a charming neighborhood of Sacramento is a good indication of the venue. The front room contains the bar, window seating, and a few tables (the nice centerpiece is the restaurant logo with tiki on the far wall) and a jungle+bird theme. The back room i more traditional tiki with booths and tables. The drink menu is a tad on on the small side but certainly worthwhile. My Mai Tai was great, and the signature drink Jungle Bird was also refreshing. The spicy Spooky's Lagoon was more for fans of Don the Beachcomber style spices. We saw a group order the $100 Three Hour Tour, complete with Gilligan's Island music over the speakers. Speaking of music, we were less than thrilled with the Beach Boys during most of our 90 mins there. There were a few surf tunes before and after, and I hope more the usual fare.

We sampled the pupus, and found the Crab Rangoon to be good (not as good as Trader Vic's, but better than Forbidden Island), but the Shrimp Cakes and Coconut Shrimp were outstanding. For entrees my wife liked her Mahi Mahi while my fried chicken was just okay. We did like the Kahlua chocolate cake for desert.

This tiki bar was definitely above average and for a non-metro area (Chicago, SF, LA) was great. Definitely worth checking out when you're in Sacto.

I love the painkiller and the zombie. Sadly they use Trader Vic's orgeat. Other than that though, they're fantastic!

GF surprised me by taking me here for the first time on my birthday. To echo another comment, finally, finally, FINALLY a tiki bar worth going to near me. No longer will I have to make the drive to Alameda or SF to fulfill my tiki craving.

Finally, a tiki bar in Sacramento worth going to. They did an excellent job building this place. It will be a regular (if not daily) stop for me
