Got here a little early on a Friday. The place filled up pretty quickly, but was nice an comfy for the first hour. Tables are on a 90 min turn time for 1-2, or 60 minutes for 3-4 during peak times. Strong merch program, wonderful drinks. Honestly my second favorite tiki bar in the Bay area of the 6 I visited. Definitely get the signature drink in signature mug. Having corn dogs was great fun. Large back patio and bar. Absolutely will be back.

Very fun and wild place. Their drinks are awesome but their food is fair. Nice outdoor heaters cut the chill. Staff and servers were excellent. We were lucky to find street parking across the street. Highly recommend getting reservations!!!!! Their Monkeypod was the best drink we tried, yummy. Excellent selection of drinks. I can not wait until we can return.

Great decor and atmosphere to boot. Servers were fast and friendly made our party feel welcomed.
This is a awesome spot to check out for only the drinks. Very tasty and well balanced drinks.
The food is very average and definitely would skip. Id recommend eat and then come here for drinks.

Really cute tiki bar. Staff was helpful, friendly, and fast although maybe they were understaffed because I felt bad there was one person checking in guests who also took orders and ran the drinks to tables. There were other people working, but that one had some major hustle.
I asked for a pretty drink and they brought me a Leilani Volcano. Soo pretty and yummy.

Went on a Saturday afternoon. Back patio was lovely, good shade, good vibes, very friendly and attentive service. We took our dog and the lovely staff brought him treats several times over. Drinks were delicious, I don't like too sweet and there were several options that fit my taste.

Forbidden Island is our absolute favorite bar. The atmosphere and the drinks are always spectacular but it’s the servers who really help to make this spot a stand out. We’ve been coming here for years and we like to bring our friends on the days Miami Dave works. Every drink and dish pairs best with M.D. signature side of sass. He’s practically a mind reader when it comes to drink orders. He’s suggested combos I never would have tried that have quickly become my favorites. He always finds the right combo to make your night. Come for the drinks . . . Stay because you’re having too much fun with Miami Dave.
