I was in Vegas over the weekend and I stopped in at the Venus Lounge/Taboo Cove. I always make it a point to go there because over the years I have made friends with the managers, doormen, and bartenders who treat me very well (even though the tiki-ness of the bar is gone). I went on Friday night and they only had the Venus side open. I asked them why they had the Tiki bar closed. The manager said that business has been pretty slow over the past few months and they only open up the Tiki side if enough people show up (which it did on Saturday night). One of the employees there did tell me that they are planning on shutting down Taboo Cove and redoing it entirely, not in Tiki. He was not sure when this was going to happen but he siad its in the near future. I asked him what they are going to do with all of the decor and he said "Get on the waiting list". He said that employees & friends are probably gonna be able to pick through everything first.
