I've had nothing but lousy experiences at Trader Sam's - lousy drinks, lousy music, full of drunken frat boys and stoopid Marina girls....yuk! Makes me ill just thinking about it. It was barely tolerable when it was an unknown dive 10 years ago. Now it's completely INtolerable. On the other hand, all three of my visits to the Rohan Lounge were quite pleasant. It's not a tiki bar, so I don't think it's fair to compare it to one. Yeah, it's kinda yuppie, but so what? The food's decent, the bartenders are knowledgeable about the soju drinks, and I LIKE downtempo electronica. I don't think I'd make it a destination, but if I'm in the 'hood and feel like stopping somewhere, I wouldn't hesitate to go there.
