Tiki Bar

The view on the Mariana tiki bar is really the main reason to visit. The atmosphere of being able to sit on the patio and have a drink is great. It’s to bad the tiki bar can not capitalize on this. The service is fairly slow. We tried their rum runners, it was decent, very sugary and not quality rum. Where it really goes downhill is the food, we had the ‘nachos’? Not sure what it was, basically chips smothered in canned cheese, picante salsa and olives; I ate a few bites and called it quits. My girlfriend had the pulled pork sandwich, the meat was pretty dry and salty, without any flavor. Hopefully this place can pick it up as they have a great location, to bad everything else is poor.

The Tiki Bar is a hidden treasure amongst the most beautiful view. The bar is basically three docks next to each other with patio chairs. It is right off the lake looking towards the mountains. The view is so amazing and the waitstaff are so friendly and laid back. We hopped tables a couple times because I wanted a better view and no one got annoyed.
Not only is the view amazing but the Rum Runner drinks are like nothing you have ever tried before. Clearly they are made with rum but the rest of of the drink ingredients are a secret, regardless they are delicious!
While this is a bar, the food is pretty decent. The wings, quesadillas and chicken bites are yummy but clearly bar food. Also the queso is a beer cheese queso with a kick, has some spice to it. It was all really good. I can’t say enough great things about this bar.
Keep in mind it’s only open during the summer, unfortunately I think this week was the last week to be open this season.

We stopped in after our boat rental on Dillon Res. The Mai Tai and the BBC I had had absolutely no kick. We’d wager to say they skipped the rum completely. The Shrimp skewers were tastie as was the coleSlaw. I’d definitely skip the drinks next time… in fact I’d go straight to the HearthStone for there HappyHour small plates. Which were very good.

Best place in Summit on the weekends. Next to the Amphitheater and great drinks. Hodges the Barkeeper is fantastic at Dark and Stormy’s and to give a big smile to everyone coming in. Tavish is also a steady server here year after year, when they see me come in, my drink is already poured!

God awful food!!!
Chicken fingers 95% crust, 5% chicken…
Slow service, no follow up .
Refills…go to the bar yourself.
Yuk

Pretty much the worst service I’ve had since that one time in high school our Olive Garden Server OD’d in the bathroom. Nice view, decent food, shitty drinks. Good luck! You’re better off ANYWHERE ELSE in all of Breck/​Frisco.

This has got to be one of the best seats for a view in the state! Maybe that’s just me but I could care less about how great the food is. Get me a cold beer and let’s call it a day. Have you seen that view? If you’re not impressed, then you must be from the mountains. If you’re not from the mountains, you need to see this place.
I had Moscow mule in a plastic cup once, was good, I had their rotating draught beer. I usually order the thai shrimp, and it’s fine for a snack. It reminds me of little places along the coast of Florida, just a laid back, paper plate kind of place. I went for a couple hours in July and got some serious sun on my skin. This is so breathtaking, out of towners will love it. A hidden gem.

This is a summer tradition for us. Drinks are always fresh, fun localish crowd and the view is just eye-​popping. As others have mentioned, make sure you visit on a nice weather day there is not any coverage.

Wow! Beautiful view of Lake Dillion while drinking a nice cold beer. Food is decent too, had the fish tacos and they were really flavorful. The service is sub par a little on the slow side but the staff was friendly. Def. A fun spot to come in the summer to enjoy a relaxing atmosphere with a gorgeous view.

Awesome view, great staff. Just make sure you come on a nice day cause there is no place to hide if the rain comes!

Fantastic view! Love the food. I had the Famous Tiki Fish Tacos and they were delicious! The only thing is the lack of beer selection.

It was just average. The view is almost amazing except for the high walls on the deck (sit as far west as you can for better views). The famous Rum Runner is kool aid and rum. The nachos looked absolutely disgusting with bright orange velveeta cheese/​ball park-​like but tasted ok actually. Could be super great but just wasn’t.

I am sad to see the bad reviews because this is such a treasure on the lake! We must have gotten there at happy hour because our beers were not expensive, and were the absolute perfect temperature, and our snack (just had chips and salsa) were delicious! We eye-​balled others’ meals though (which I hate but had to) and the burgers looked amazing, tacos looked good, and we’ll be returning for nachos that looked huge and covered with all kinds of goodness! There is a hug dog patio, which is an amazing spot, and not being a dog person, I think it’s great that it’s separate! Our service was exceptional. We were greeted to be seated immediately, brought menus fast, and our order taken promptly, and delivered speedily! We were asked about our second beers at the perfect time, and again, delivered quickly! Everything was perfect for a Sunday afternoon. Parking can be tricky, but if you’re a little patient, and not opposed to walking down the road a bit, it’s not too bad. All in all, a great experience!

Great spot to take in the beauty of Dillon Lake! If you can’t get a great photo from here then you must have had too many drinks. Simply Tiki Bar set up with ICE COLD Beers/​good drink list as well! Service was perfect/​parking can be a little rough. get dat did!

What you request is NOT what you get… Medium rare means well done (with bonus metal shard on top of burger), sauce on the side means sauce slathered all over your taco, can I have another beer means wait 20 minutes and then I’ll act like i never heard your order, is the chicken ready yet means you’ll get it when the rest of your meal is done (after the bill) and I had to ask her twice for the chicken. Skip this place or make sure Lauren is not your server.

Shame on you pug Ryan’s for attaching your name to an establishment loaded with incompetent servers. On a Monday afternoon, 40 minutes is excessive for fish tacos and a burger. Lauren forgot our drinks twice and finally showed up with our third sandwich after we got our bill. Clearly she forgot to put the chicken sandwich in the computer. Lay off the pipe Lauren.
$ 60 for 3 sandwiches, two beers and crappy service… Go to qdoba.

Tried to go here. Arrived at last call but then told that we were not included in last call and turned away. Bummer-​was excited to try and not coming back.

I was fortunate enough to come to Lake Dillon this past summer. We went with a group of friends and had a great time. One set of our friends comes up here a couple of times a year and took us to the Tiki Bar. We really enjoyed the marina area and part of the highlight of the summer afternoon was going to the Tiki Bar.
When we arrived, it was a cloudy day. All seating was outdoors, but there was tent that had seats under it. The Tiki Bar was a seat-​yourself joint and we found a place under the tent. The drinks were fairly inexpensive and apparently this is a Pug Ryan’s outfit. We’d spent the previous evening at Pug Ryan’s and saw one of the same servers at the Tiki Bar. They serve Pug Ryan’s beers as well as other booze/​drinks. The food menu seemed to be pretty typical bar food. The nachos looked pretty good.
The tiki bar is next to the marina and across the way is the yacht club. We had quick service and the drinks kept flowing. I hope to come back again.

Practically perfect on a summer day. especially if you brought along your furry K9 spoiled brat with you… The view can’t be beat, great rum drinks and microbrews, we had nachos and the tiki burger with grilled pineapple. yum! We spoiled the dog of course and ordered him a giant angus patty minus the bun. he gobbled it right up. The service was great and the clientele were all friendly and laid back. typical Colorado mountain town folks. we’ll be back!

Tiki Bar! Yay, came here and was so excited to see it open! It’s right on Lake Dillon — perfect views on the water and mountains. Breathtaking really! We just came here for some post-​bike ride drinks. I really wish it would have been warmer because I could have sat here all day drinking those Tiki Bar Pina Coladas. Delicious! I hear the rum runners are quite good as well… I bet this place is a lot of fun in the summer.
