Hermosa Beach recently joined the Polynesian party with the opening of Tiki Kai on the pier.🍹🌺 💀 Yet tiki culture is not new to the South Bay. In fact, the new establishment nods to Lawndale’s Tiki Kai Restaurant of the 1960s. “Kai” translates to “sea” or “ocean” in Hawaiian.

“We feel this is a full-circle moment for Hermosa Beach,” shares co-owner Brian Eldridge. “The Lighthouse originally opened its doors as a tiki bar, so it has taken nearly 100 years for another tiki restaurant to join the Hermosa community. We feel incredibly lucky to stand alongside the legendary bars and restaurants that have defined the pier for decades.”
