Aikawa and the team behind Ramen Tatsu-Ya, Kemuri Tatsu-Ya and dipdipdip Tatsu-Ya.
Recently named one of the 40 best bars in Austin by Statesman critic Matthew Odam, Tiki
Tatsu-Ya is disguised by a fake travel company on the outside, but stepping in, you’re
immediately transported to another world. The riotous colors, sound effects and over-the-top
tropical cocktails in custom mugs and glasses feel like an island vacation or 21+ Disneyland.
Shareable drinks come with fire shows, and even the food far surpasses typical bar fare with
mouthwatering dishes like Spam Musubi, Crab Lagoon, Kalua Pork and the Pu Pu Platter, which
shouldn’t be missed. Reservations are recommended.

Found this gem and made reservations before we arrived to the city. We needed to change the time and it was easy for us to adjust times. We were greeted by a nice gentleman (sorry can't remember his name but he was from Ojai originally) who made us feel right at home. Then we were enthusiastically greeted and cared for the rest of the evening by our server Gina. She brought the energy! We only tried the musubi and shrimp musubi but both were delicious. The chili sauce on the shrimp musubi was delightful and the cloche with the musubi added another flare.","rating":{"food":4,"service":5,"ambience":5,"value":5,"noise":"MODERATE","overall":5,"__typename":"ReviewRating"},"user":{"numOfApprovedReviews":2,"nickname":"Colby","metro":{"metroId":8,"displayName":"New York City","__typename":"Metro"},"initials":"C","isVip":null,"isLoggedInUser":false,"profileColor":"PLUM","profilePhoto":{"photoBySize":null,"__typename":"PublicDinerProfilePhoto"},"__typename":"ReviewUser"},"helpfulness":{"up":0,"down":0,"score":0,"__typename":"ReviewHelpfulness"},"publicRestaurantReply":null,"submittedDateTime":"2025-04-11T18:50:48Z","dinedDateTime":"2025-04-10T22:00:00-05:00","type":"OPENTABLEVERIFIED","fromPreviousConcept":false,"highlight":null,"photos":[],"__typename":"ReviewSearchResult"}],"totalPages":8,"page":1,"totalCount":75,"__typename":"ReviewSearchResults"},"reviewHelpfulnessVotes":[],"sortBy":"newestReview","isLoading":false,"prioritiseUserLanguage":false,"searchTerm":"","error":false},"availabilityToken":null,"noAvailabilityList":null,"multiDayAvailabilityModalOpen":false,"showDiningReward":false,"initialDTPDate":null,"initialDTPTime":null,"initialDTPPartySize":null,"fetchAvailabilityOnLoad":false,"findATableLoadingStateOverride":true,"pointRedemptionRewards":null,"privateDining":{},"activeTab":"overview","disableFPC":true,"restaurantHighlights":{"staff":null,"missionStatement":null},"pageAnchor":null},"wallet":{"isPaymentLoading":false,"singleUseCard":null,"savedCards":[],"selectedPaymentCardId":null,"showAddPaymentsMethodModal":false,"showConfirmDeleteModal":false,"cardIdForDeletion":null,"paymentCardTokenToSaveAfterLogin":null,"errorCode":null,"showPaymentMethodSavedToast":null,"showPaymentMethodRemovedToast":null,"networkError":null,"partialErrors":[]}},"__OT_NEW_SESSION_START__":true,"__EXCLUDE_ONETRUST__":false,"__EXCLUDE_GA__":false,"__INCLUDE_RECAPTCHA__":false,"__OT_RUM_CONTEXT__":{"deviceType":"desktop","primaryCountry":"ae"},"__OT_GA_DATA__":{"cd2":72,"cd12":"en","cd6":1204000,"cd28":1204000,"cd13":"Full Web","cd17":"Full Web","cd11":"restprofilepage","cd66":"restaurants","cd63":"restaurant-profile","cd67":"network","cd10":"anonymous","cd7":"Logged Out","cd4":65,"cd76":65,"cd3":33,"cd19":33,"cd78":21037,"cd5":21037,"cd31":"false","cd85":1,"cd84":"GuestCenter","cd15":"network","cd18":"network"}}}
