BarFly's Review of Billy Bang’s Castaway Lounge
Sort of a lame TGI Friday version of a tiki bar—though it’s locally owned and not part of a soul-sucking chain (but sure looks it). Despite a few splashes of red paint and strategically placed bamboo, visitors will likely not be magically transported to a tropical paradise. Beer selection is modest, though the Kona Longboard Lager is excellent, and you can have fun ordering the Monkey Spanker IPA made by the guys over at the Raccoon Lodge. The Happy Hour food is hit/miss and the cocktails suffer from Hawaiian Punch syndrome. Strictly for Jimmy Buffett fans, brain-dead cubicle drones and bosses looking to liquor-up their secretaries. Open till 2:30am nightly. Pool x1. $2.50 appetizers 4-6pm M-F.
Happy Hours
Truly a place where everyone remembers your name. The service is excellent...drinks are great and food is always tasty. Live music is featured each Wednesday starting at 6 pm as well. There are pool tables and a great courtyard for outdoor dining. Check it out!

Yes, this was a huge disappointment compared to the Billy Bang's of old. It seemed like the place was being run by a bunch of drunks, which isn't always bad as long as the food is good and the service adequate, which it wasn't.
