I loved Trader Vic's as much as anyone, but I think some people are being a bit delusional about the profitability of the restaurant. I live down the street and have frequented the place for while. It was rarely packed, especially on weekdays. I do wish that there had been some warning prior to the closing and that is the main thing that irks me about this. I am actually quite excited to check out the lounge, and am glad that I can still grab a mai tai and look at a few tikis when I get the itch, which is a lot more than I was expecting.
Did the owner of the hotel own the lease? I think not.
The hotel owner wanted to shut down TV to eliminate a possible obstacle to tearing down the hotel.
Don't believe a word of it. It is just BS offered in a failed attempt to justify its closing.
