First time at the Lobby for all 4 of us. Drinks were delicious and some were served in fun tiki mugs. Menu was varied with many great choices. We all ordered different items and we all were pleased with our choices. Will definitely return!

I’m a big fan of tiki culture, but unfortunately, this place did not live up to expectations. The food arrived cold, which was incredibly disappointing. On top of that, the restroom was filthy, which left a bad impression on the overall cleanliness of the establishment. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone looking for a quality tiki experience.

We had a great time at The Lobby! Beautifully decorated tiki bar. We started with a shared drink, Big Gulps Eh. Great flavor with fresh juices and a perfect amount of alcohol. Next we tried the Rangoon mozzarella sticks and the poke inari bombs! Those were bomb!!! For dinner 2 of us had the fish plate, also ordered were the fish tacos and the huli huli chicken. All were delicious. I think my favorite of them all was the chicken! A deliciously moist half chicken! So good. We also had the donuts which did not disappoint if you like malasadas! Great vibe and delicious food! Jeremy and Paige were very nice and gave great service. We highly recommend! (Make reservations! The line was out the door when we left!)

Great experience. The manager Steve was friendly. The bartender was great. Hand crafted each cocktail, explained what was in the drinks and why, helped with food recommendations. We will definitely be back. For food we got the crab Rangoon mozzarella sticks and the tri tip skewers.

Very friendly and good food. Just maybe need another heater if seated by the back patio with the wind coming up the hall. We will be back with a warmer jacket!

We ordered the surf & turf tacos, along with tiki drinks. The tacos were our #1 favorite! Knowledgeable bar tenders and servers. They really knew the menu well. I would highly recommend this bar and restaurant.
