Tiki-tiki Restaurant

Thank you for having my family for Christmas Eve Dinner. This Chinese restaurant is a gem. Food is consistently great. We come on Sundays usually after church or do pick up orders. And tonight they were so busy (not surprised) and it was so good! Very impressed. Server was our usual girl. She is sweet and personable and quick. She handled our party of 14 so easily! We had the House Soup for 2, Pu Pu Platters. I love the lettuce wraps with chicken and my husband got the Hawai 4-O. Delicious!! Tiki tiki is where it’s at!! Thank you for providing delicious food with great service especially on one of their busiest nights of the year!

Very good quality ingredients. Would like a little bolder and spicier flavor profile in the entrees, but I saw other dishes at tables that looked crazy good!! Soups were good. Steamed dumpling and crab Rangoon were a hit. Cashiers were so nice and Mike at the bar was super attentive and could tell he has a regular following! Great neighborhood feel!! Sorry, was really hungry and got food to go and forgot to take pics...lol!

When you walk in, the hostess stand is on the right-hand side. The restaurant has a bunch of booths, so you get the good seats! The food is amazing! It was cooked to the perfect level of tenderness and had a great balance of salty and umami. Don't let the unassuming exterior fool you. This place is definitely worth a visit!

This was our first visit (late lunch). I got the Polynesian Apple Chicken in Pineapple Sauce with fried rice & added a vegetable egg roll. My husband got the Chicken & Broccoli lunch combo with fried rice and a chicken & shrimp egg roll. The egg rolls were fantastic. Hot & crisp & larger than the ones at our usual Chinese restaurant. Served with little pots of hot mustard and duck sauce. I'm allergic to shrimp and the server was careful to make sure I had the vegetable one. Both entrées were delicious. My husband said his chicken was tender and there was no fat or gristle. Broccoli was tender-crisp and vibrant green. Where it looked like a smallish portion, he said it was actually a lot of food and he had trouble finishing. My Apple Chicken was outstanding. Tender bites of breaded fried chicken with warm chunks of fresh, crisp apple and pineapple in a sweet pineapple glaze with some green bell pepper for color. It was not a lunch combo and I had to bring some home. (The rice was mounded over the top of the bowl, but I was starved & started eating before I thought of a picture.) We'll definitely be back.

Can't go wrong with this place. Even in the face of ever increasing inflation they manage to hold their prices somewhat in line and increase value for money. Most tiki drinks are priced at $8.95 and poured VERY strong! Contrast this with so many other places charging $14 and up for much more weakly poured drinks. Perhaps that's why this place has stayed in business for decades....
