BAR
South Shore Tiki Lounge
Every writer needs a reliable watering hole in every precinct of his or her coverage area. When I’m on the South side this tends to be Tiki Lounge. I have penned the equivalent of four and a half sonnets in honor of their mai-tais, their generous list of vegan options, their bloody Marys and their quasi-kitsch aesthetic. Owners Mikhail and Alma Tassi are about as cool and genuine as they come and some of the best, funniest bartenders I know work there. There’s usually a DJ spinning after dark if you’re into that sort of thing. 1913 S. Kihei Rd. # J, Kihei, 808-874-6444. [KB]
Runner up: The Dog & Duck Irish Pub, Kihei
