Tiki’s Grill & Bar is offering a special dinner on Father’s Day just for dads: a “mixed grill” plate consisting of an 8-ounce spice-rubbed bone-in New York steak, a half-rack of Tiki’s guava barbecue ribs, a half-pound of snow-crab legs, soy-glazed Kahuku corn and truffled mashed potatoes. 12th Ave Grill, meanwhile, will serve up a “Ham-hattan cocktail” — a unique twist on a classic Manhattan featuring Shinsato bacon-infused rye whiskey.
