Pleasing the Tiki Gods

It’s a throwback to all things tiki plus you can sip Don’s famous rum cocktails such as Navy Grog, Vicious Virgin, Zombie, Missionary’s Downfall and, of course, Don’s Original Mai Tai. Check out the Greer’s OCTV video here. Don the Beachcomber also features Asian-inspired specialties from the original menu: sticky ribs, ahi poke tacos, Kahlua pulled pork, bacon-wrapped escolar and pineapple upside-down cake.
And now at Don the Beachcomber you can end the weekend with a unique Sunday brunch, complete with made-to-order entrées, buffet of fresh fruit, salads and desserts, and champagne bar and two high-energy Polynesian shows with singing, dancing and other live entertainment.
