I had been looking forward to visiting Kon Tiki for some time. The theme is amazing, and walking through the door was like visiting an exotic location. I was there for a quick drink and appetizer before a movie, but nothing was quick. With only 6 other people sitting at the bar top, the bartender didn't seem to have much time for me since he was busy talking to a restaurant reviewer. (Seriously, haha!) The drinks were almost syrupy, they were so fruity and sweet. I ordered the fried shrimp appetizer, which was 4 pieces of shrimp for $6.50. My date ordered the 12 piece wings for $12 and was given cheap, chewy chicken. Possibly the worst wings I've tried in Tucson. We had to wave the bartender down for refills on our empty glasses, and it was difficult getting the check. For 2 fruity drinks, a bottle of beer, and our gross appetizers, the bill came to $35. It wasn't worth $10 and I would never return.
