Walking in through the bamboo front door, guests are immediately whisked away to a vibrant tiki hut decked out with hand-carved totems, grass walls, and Hawaiian-clad servers.

Here at Saturn Room, the rum is always flowing, the details are as quirky and fun as the atmosphere and staff, and the drinks are straight up fire.
