Everything was excellent. Fifth time here, first time with the new menu. Short rib, cornish hen and salmon were great, as were the mussels and tartare. The drinks are always amazing. So much variety, and expertly crafted. Can’t wait to come back again.

I've been to Tiki a few times with friends and I had a date night this last time and yet again. Tiki has not disappointed! It was her first time and like me we both loved the energy, food, and drinks are on point. This place brings a fresh vibe to Edmonton and I highly recommend this place to anyone!
