    The Pink Tiger, occupying the former Kaliwa space, has undergone a stylish transformation. The improvements are immediately noticeable, from the refined ambiance to the attentive service. We did not have to wait too long after placing our drink and food orders. Big shout-out to Bobby, our server! The food and drinks are delicious, though a bit overpriced. While the cocktails are tasty, I expected more creative mixology for the $17 price point. The "Get Down On It" (vanilla infused bourbon) is tasty. Highly recommend the garlic noodles and Thai pumpkin soup. The serving plates, though visually appealing, are quite large and take up a lot of table space. DJ and vocalist Jeremy is AMAZING!!! Overall, The Pink Tiger is an energetic addition to the Wharf with great service and a versatile menu. We look forward to returning.

    The miso ramen and stamina spicy were excellent! We also got the whiskey infused dumplings and the flavors were phenomenal. If you like spicy, ask for the spice bomb to be added to your ramen, it’s got the perfect ghost pepper kick!
