Love the atmosphere, food and drinks! I just love everything about this place. Fav dish is the pineapple crab fried rice. Chef's Kiss!

Tiki tiki. S.O.S. is a fun tiki bar tucked away in a little alley next to Victory. The drinks are rum based. We had head hunter, fools bounty and killueria. We didn’t enjoy head hunter at all. The drinks were ok however we were seated with no wait and service was quick.

Such a cool little place. Great drinks and food. Service was outstanding as well

If you’re looking for an experience S.O.S Tiki bar is hands down the spot. I’ll start with the host, she was very accommodating & polite. I expected it to be busy and crowded however it was perfect. The wait was 2 minutes literally. We were seated at the bar. The food was delicious to say the least. Drinks 10/10 Service 10/10 Small bites 10/10

Well this was fun. My adult daughter discovered this place and took us during our most recent visit. It's a tiny little bar hidden between two buildings. The brick sidewalk with tropical plants paints an intimate atmosphere as you approach the outdoor host station. There are a half dozen tables outdoor. Inside there are four booths and maybe ten seats at the bar. The main reason to visit are all the tiki rum drinks in cool looking glasses. Each one costs $15-20, so it's not inexpensive. Our favorite drink was Black Magic which included demera run, bourbon, cinnamon, vanilla, honey, lime and coffee. At first we were not sure about the coffee, but it blends beautifully with the rest of the ingredients. They have a very limited Asian fusion menu, but what they do have is awesome. The Tokyo Fries with sriracha mayo was so good. The chili garlic dumplings were fried and full of flavor. My cauliflower bang bang bowl was fantastic. Service is polite and engaging, but also slow. Huge thumbs up to this place. There are a couple of things to consider if you plan to visit. They are only open from 6:00 PM to 11:00 PM Wednesday through Sunday. That's a very narrow period of time and with it being so tiny your chances of getting into the place could be difficult. I would not recommend groups of more than four people. There is a one-person bathroom that everyone uses creating long lines to get in. Parking for the whole area can be rough. You may be walking a few blocks to get here.

Tonight was our first time visiting and it was absolutely perfect! From the moment we sat at the bar, Justin greeted us and suggested drinks and food! Everything we had was delicious and we will definitely be back for the atmosphere, great food and cocktails, and amazing customer service!

SOS may be my favorite spot in downtown Decatur. The environment is delightful, drinks are special (and a little "extra"), and the current food menu has some fun snack options. Service has always been above and beyond.When they switch gears for Christmas, it's an absolute MUST. You won't regret it!My only qualms are the hours and inability to make reservations ahead of time. Expect a wait, especially since seating is limited compared to its popularity.

Cool vibe! Tasty drinks! Nice bartenders! We popped in for a snack and a drink and enjoyed the vibe and fun drinks! Definitely a neat place to check out.

Entrance: on the side of the building of Victory's Sandwich Bar.Parking: a little difficult to find parking close to the restaurant, so we parked in a lot on Sycamore Street and paid about $5 for 2 hours. The parking lot is about 0.1 miles away.Food: we ordered the Lobster Kani Salad, Spiced Brisket, and the Chicken Teriyaki baos. The baos were small, but filled with lots of meat and veggie garnish. The chicken bao tasted odd and had a fishy flavor. We also ordered MFC nuggets, Longanisa Skewers, and Shepherd's Pie Croquettes. The croquettes are not on the menu, so you gotta ask your server for them. The longanisa skewers were sooo stinkin good...the sauces that were drizzled on top made the dish even better. My husband was obsessed with the lobster bao and the croquettes. The MFC nuggets were just okay --- go to a Korean restaurant for better Korean Fried Chicken.Drinks: we ordered the Black Magic, Zombie, Fool's Gold, and the Fogcutter. They all had very interesting and unique flavors, but also not pleasing at the same time. There are way too many flavors and it started to taste medicinal...like Asian medicines/teas. At times we were just forcing ourselves to finish them because we paid $15 each for them.Service: super friendly staff. We sat at the bar and the bartender was really nice and attentive. The bar was slammed with drink orders but our bartender was very intentional with making sure we were taken care of.Wait time: we came on a Saturday evening around 8pm and in freezing January weather. They had plenty of seating with heaters outside, but being so southeast Asian and hating cold weather, we waited about 20 minutes to be seated at the bar

This is the best spot! Themed places are the way to go and this will not disappoint! The inside made us feel like we were transported to a tropical paradise. Our drinks were so delicious and the Maui thai was even lit on fire ? the food was equally as spectacular! Strongly recommend you to Lua aui over here!
