And the two that guard the entrance. Not 'tiki' enough for ya huh? Just because there's giant tikis doesn't make a place "tiki." Tiki has more to do with ambiance than painted styrofoam. We make up what? .00000000001% of the Vegas clientel? and they should cater to us!??!?! how humble of us. The .00000000001% represents who is vocal about it. I don't think anyone expects them to change just for "us," but it's hard to sit back and just accept the direction this TV has gone when others are so fantastic. If this TV had opened under a different name, people might not be as vocal about it and just accept it as Vegas neo-tiki. But to call THIS a Trader Vic's just doesn't seem right. Just my opinions based on the pictures and comments from who has been there. I haven't seen it personally.
