TIKI BAR 52 – Restaurant

Woven tiki huts, water on the doorstep and pelicans working the pilings — Tiki 52 sits on the water in Tequesta and is a hangout first, restaurant second. The kitchen leans seafood: blackened mahi tacos, a mahi mahi sandwich, cracked conch, conch fritters, peel-and-eat shrimp, ahi tuna nachos, coconut shrimp and brisket quesadillas, plus certified Angus burgers. They will cook your catch. Live bands play, trivia and bag toss fill the quieter evenings, and weekday happy hour runs cheap. Guests keep describing the same thing: an unhurried tropical afternoon that runs longer than planned.
