South Shore Tiki Lounge won a silver ‘Aipono Award for Best Bar this past Friday at the awards gala! The ‘Aipono Awards recognizes the best in restaurant and culinary achievement and we were so proud to be among such fabulous company. The reception drinks flowed and phenomenal dinner impressed us all. Big love for everyone’s support.

Maui No Ka Oi Finds a Hot Spot!
Congratulations to Chef Danny for a glowing food review in the March/April 09 Maui No Ka Oi Magazine. Our Mai Tai also made the cover of the dining section with the caption, “South Shore Tiki Lounge earns tropical cred with the tiki-licious Mai Tai.” Woot!
“Hot Spot: You’d expect the torches, and maybe even the fiery-eyed tiki spewing smoke from its gaping mouth. But it’s the health-conscious bar food that really excites. Those watching their cholesterol will applaud Chef Danny Paquette’s trans-fat-free friend goodies, like the rice-flour calamari on the Tiki Pupu Platter. The grilled sausage sandwiches can pack a spicy punch, so keep the light-as-a-feather french fries close at hand. Gourmet pizza (whole and by the slice), burgers, salads, and several vegetarian menu items round out the menu. With Happy Hour daily, DJs six nights a week, and a hip, picnic style atmosphere, it’s easy to see why this place has been a South Shore institution since 2002.” –Heidi Poole, Maui No Ka Oi Magazine
