    The drinks were amazing and so were the vibes! We came in on Christmas Eve and tired most of the him day cocktail.. all very good— a few very strong 😆 I ordered the wontons as well as the spicy tuna tar tar cones… I will say I was a little disappointed with the portions sizes. Three cones (very small) for $18? And 5 Wontons for $16.. a little steep for a few bites of food but they tasted great none the less. Would come back for drinks just not for the food ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    The drink were incredible and the service was super friendly. I thought the food portion size was a bit small for the price. However, the food was really tasty- I just wanted more :)

    This past weekend, my sister and I decided to experience The Grass Skirt during the holiday season. I was so happy. I finally got a chance to experience this bar normally it's hard to get a reservation, but if you decide to go to this place, recommend going right when they open so you can be able to get a walk in timeslot or reserve a time early in the day, they open at 5 PM. The customer service was friendly , great selection of drinks and by far the best Poké I've ever had this will become a tradition for me to come back every year.

    I love Grass Skirt!! And I especially love the Sippin' Santa version! The decorations and ambiance are amazing, the food and drinks were delicious and cute, the servers were all wonderful. A little expensive, but really loved the whole experience, can't wait to go again!
