On the way home, we had quite a bit of time to kill after arriving from Moorea and before our midnight flight back to LAX. It was great to take a quick taxi ride to the IC Tahiti and relax in the cocktail lounge/bar/restaurant outside. They had a great band playing and we enjoyed the sunset, food, drinks, and the planes arriving/taking off.
Agreed, stayed here in 2017 on the front side for a night, then for an evening on the back side but it was a good hearty meal and the music in the bar was very entertaining.
