AMERICAN/AMERICAN REGIONAL
La Mariana Restaurant & Bar
Nonagenarian Annette Nahinu put her one-of-a-kind spot Oahu's last real tiki bar up for sale in 2006 (part of the deal is she gets to live out her days there), but so far the place is intact. She still makes the rounds, saying hi to her loyal clientele. The puffer fish lamps, peacock chairs and indoor waterfall are in place and old-timers gather around the piano bar unabashedly singing their hearts out. The food is as period as the atmosphere, mostly grilled and fried seafood and steaks and poke. Go while it's still there.
