Warm Greetings to You

Welcome to Tiki on 18th, a Filipino-American restaurant and tropical cocktail bar in the heart of Adams Morgan, Washington, DC.

Tiki on 18th brings together Filipino flavors, tropical cocktails and the energy of one of DC's most vibrant neighborhoods. Our menu is designed for sharing, pairing Filipino-American dishes with classic tiki cocktails, original creations and a deep selection of rum and spirits.

At the heart of Tiki is Jo-Jo Valenzuela, an award-winning bartender and restaurateur originally from Cainta, Rizal, Philippines. His Filipino heritage influences both our kitchen and our approach to hospitality, bringing familiar flavors, creativity and a sense of celebration to the experience.

Behind the bar, you'll find everything from iconic tiki classics to modern cocktails inspired by tropical ingredients, Filipino flavors and techniques from around the world. In the kitchen, those drinks are paired with shareable Filipino-American plates made for dinner, date nights and nights out with friends.

But Tiki on 18th is about more than food and cocktails. Join us for daily happy hour, dinner, late-night DJs and vinyl nights, private celebrations and weekend nights in Adams Morgan.

Come for a cocktail. Stay for dinner. Stay even later for the music.

Welcome to Tiki on 18th.
