Very tiki style from the 70s they have great video machines where you can win money a little dark but it hides the ugly and weird when you need it to be not seen great food. Also don't miss out on the alibi. Enjoy your time and the service there is excellent.

It's one of those rare bars that you can trust will make a great cocktail with awesome vibes. We came here for karaoke, and the karaoke was fun, and the food was just okay. Come back soon.

An unexpected surprise inside what I thought would be nothing more than a tiki-themed dive bar. Were there lottery machines -- yes. A divey vibe -- of course. PBR and other cheapy brews -- you know it. But the interior was fantastic, and so many little microcosms around each corner, including the far back room that hosts karaoke... and has its own bar setup. Bartender was more than gracious making me an NA painkiller. Really tasty. Food looked good although we didn't try it as we had dinner plans. Outdoor seating available and plenty of it. Tons of seating inside and the decor is reminiscent of Bamboo Ben style = lots of little details to catch your attention.

Heard about this establishment for a long time and finally got a chance to visit. Glad to report that it's as awesome as everybody says! I love the ambience and decor both inside and outside. You can't miss it from the interstate with the flashing bright sign. Inside was dim and cozy with Hawaiian arts and decors. Staffs were also A+, very friendly and hardworking. Their drinks were delicious! I tried the Zombie and was a big fan of its cinnamon-y profile. Their food was also honestly pretty decent. Everything was made fresh. Great portion and price as well. Their Waffle Fries were soso crispy. And, of course, the karaoke area was popping. So many great singers frequent the spot. It'd be fun to just come grab a drink and listen to other people as well. If you want to sing though, get your name in early. Totally would be back!

If you love urself a TIKI bar this is a good option!! May not be up to everyone's standards but definitely tiki lounge vibes!!! Great mixture of people and talent....! Yes talented karaoke vibes here so don't sleep on this one y'all!! Did I mention super booozy cocktails!!! Walk or take an Uber or Lyft is highly recommended and being open mind to chill and have fun!!

I'm finally getting around to writing reviews for some of my favorite old-school places in Portland. There are few businesses in the Rose City that are as iconic as the Alibi Tiki Lounge. In fact, it's such an important fixture in the tableau of weird and wonderful Portland, I'd suggest visiting at least once... regardless of what you read or hear from others. The kitsch is off the charts before you even walk through the door. One of my favorite things about this area are the historic neon signs that line Interstate avenue. At one time, Interstate was the primary route between Portland and Seattle. So it makes sense this stretch of the road is dotted with old school diners, motels and service stations. Do me a favor and visit at night so you can see the fabulous neon at Alibi and surrounding businesses in all their glory! Once inside, be sure to wander around and explore all the nooks and crannies in the lounge. The building is designed to provide lots of private booths and seating areas. My favorite tables and booths are in the circular elevated area immediately to the right of the entrance. Whimsical lighting, mirrors galore, and red tufted leather booths help set the tone. There's limited seating at the bar itself, but you'll find an area reserved for karaoke in the back, as well as plenty of outdoor seating. The menu boasts an impressive array of classic and inventive tiki cocktails served in kitschy mugs and embellished with tropical fruit, orchids and umbrellas. There is a wide variety of drinks available, but be sure to try one of their shareable "bowl" drinks, often arriving at the table engulfed in flames. I've honestly not eaten much from the food menu, despite many visits over the years. Their burger is bland, the fries are salty, and the nachos taste like cafeteria nachos. I've heard good things about the Pu Pu Platter, but do we really come here for the food? Please defer to other reviewers for an accurate recommendation. Megan G, an Elite reviewer from Sammamish, WA recommends the wings. I'll try those next time! Alibi Tiki Lounge is a delightful escape from the ordinary. It's a must-see attraction for tiki enthusiasts, and lovers of Portland history. Remember to drink responsibly and share your review here so others can learn about this fun and quirky place.
