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.I asked him what they are going to do with all of the decor and he said "Get on the waiting list". This is not too surprising because the bar had been poorly promoted and is in a bad place (hidden from normal view). The location is not one that the average person would walk by when going through that casino.
