Tonga Hut

Laid-back tiki bar offering fruity drinks, lava-rock fountains & eclectic tunes on the jukebox, this is the oldest tiki bar in Los Angeles.  Two brothers founded this joint in 1958 after they were inspired by a trip to Tonga.

Owned and lovingly restored by Jeremy Fleener, guitarist for SX-10 (and formerly for Cyprus Hill) who fell in love with the Tonga Hut the first time he visited it back in the 90’s. He finally bought it in 2008 and has spent just about every waking moment polishing it up and turning it back into its previous self.
