“ Rafiki Tiki Bar & Grill is an oceanfront outdoor patio restaurant located in the beautiful Riviera Beach Marina Village in Florida. The restaurant is grate for a casual date night to unwind while having a few drinks, 2 for 1 during happy hour. Chips and queso/salsa were both very delicious. Gabby was my waitress and she was very bubbly, friendly and efficient definitely a plus. I would go back again just for Gabby and for the food. ”
“ Came out to Manatee Lagoon and Rafiki Tiki is close by. Adjacent to the marina with (an obstructed) view of the water. We were seated right away - it was surprisingly not crowded a little before 1 on a Saturday. We ordered a couple specialty drinks (very potent.) When they arrived, we ordered lunch. Everything was delicious! Cuban sandwich, shrimp tacos, and a Mahi sandwich wrap. I believe we will make the trek there again. ”
“ Here on a Tuesday evening for happy hour which starts at 4pm! Sasha one of the few great bartenders here is serving me up lavishly. The view of and atmosphere lovely as usual! ”
“ Was in the area from Phoenix and had a few hours to kill so I came here for lunch since I liked the name and the menu looked good. Sat at the bar and ordered the Buena Noche rice bowl which was delicious! Loved the laid back atmosphere and the beer on tap, highly recommend coming through for a bite and a drink near the water! ”
“ Really like this out of the way bar/restaurant over looking a Marina and type of park. Have had great experience the few times we've come for happy hour. Service has always been great and a great selection of draft beers. Chips and salsa very good. Haven't eaten anything else so can't comment on food nor inside seating as we've always hung outside....but nice ambiance outside. Look forward to a return visit. 10-4-24: stopped in for some dinner, decided on the Rifiki burger that did not disappoint.....the sweet potato fries were some of the best I've had. The place was crowded, Friday night and the Riviera Beach fest going on. Service suffered due to 3 employees calling off work, but the owner was helping to make things the best possible. 10-10-24: Happy hour, good 5 appetizer selection, the empanadas were very good and 2 for 1 beers. They also have wine and we'll drink specials. Courtney was a great server checking often and great sense of humor. 10-15-24: chicken quesadilla was excellent ”
“ Great place that was tucked out of the way but a great place to go after the Manatee exhibit. Good fresh food with decent drinks. The service was good considering they were packed for lunch. Nice, easy and accommodating. I wish the places in Florida were slightly cheaper in price, on drinks and food because we would have stayed a little longer to drink and relax if it were. ”
“ Wow - one word! The staff was beyond friendly, ambiance was phenomenal, music was amazing, food was shockingly perfect. It’s a tiki bar and grill, I would have settled for ordinary, but received amazing! This place is sure to please and as a local, we will go back again! Free parking, local coconuts for sale (if you don’t own your own) inter coastal waterways, beautiful walking area and their drinks are fantastic (they don’t go lite on the alcohol either!) We will go back again! ”
“ Ran into the owner this morning as he was cleaning up and getting ready for the day. I wish we could have come by when he was open. We asked if there was any coffee around the area before we got on the boat and he went out of his way to make our group a pot of coffee. Super nice and friendly I can imagine he runs an awesome business. Everything was in tip top shape. ”
