Makai’s Loco Burger—$17
Makai’s Loco Burger is a bold island-style creation featuring a juicy beef patty, mac salad, Swiss cheese, and a golden egg on a brioche bun, served with fries and rich mushroom gravy for dipping.
Oaxacan Alchemy—$15
This isn’t just a cocktail—it’s an incantation. The Oaxacan Alchemy opens with a whisper of absinthe, paving the way for sharp lime and golden Licor 43 to collide with the smoky heat of Alambique Serrano Cartier 30 rum. Velvet falernum laces it in spice, while mintlime oil floats like a spell on the surface— shimmering, aromatic, unforgettable.
The 1944 Cake—$10
A legendary slice inspired by a tiki icon. The 1944 Cake channels the bold spirit of the classic Mai Tai with notes of toasted almond, zesty lime, and hints of rumsoaked citrus. Rich, balanced, and impossibly smooth—this dessert pays homage to the cocktail that started it all.
Pele’s Peanut Peril—$10
A decadent force of nature. Pele’s Peanut Peril erupts with devil’s food cake packed with molten peanut butter chips, rising from a bed of whipped peanut butter fluff. Finished with graham cracker crumble, chocolate sprinkles, and a molten drizzle of hot fudge, it’s fiery, forbidden, and dangerously delicious. $10 June Dessert SpecialS! June is for golden hours and guilty pleasures—where every dessert tastes like the start of something sweet.
