I want to see more pics. I didn't even notice this bar. What is it next to? I liked the decor at Saints and Sinners but it's probably gonna get dirty quick. They have animal hide chairs at the bar there.

Thats the funny thing. Part of their plan was to make sure that it was more noticeable and drew people in. I was there this weekend and never noticed it
Its supposedly across the street from tropical isle

Those are the only pics I took. And it is right across from the original Tropical Isle (they have a "mini" Trop Isle down Bourbon).
Things I noticed when I walked in there yesterday to use the bathroom and check it out was that 1) they still had the barber's shot chair, and 2) they have "dueling pianos" ..meant to compete with/emulate Pat O's I'm sure. I saw both the fat guy manager and the owner there. Owner was outside texting. Manager was getting a Bug Light bottle for somebody. Place had a decent crowd but a lot of them looked like drunk locals who sit there all day sipping one Miller Lite and chain smoking and scaring off tourists.

You are all some bitches Aunt Tiki's Lounge is a total train wreck. I went in before. The door is literally a meat locker door with the slitted plastic drape. The bathroom looked like a crime scene. Broken mirror, broken paper towel dispenser, broken glass on floor, and fresh POOLS of blood on floor. This was about 2 in the afternoon on Saturday. NOT during Mardi gras.
This always makes me laugh.
