THINGS TRADER VICS SF NEEDS TO FIX:
- Finish the interior design.
There is a room off the main hallway which is completely undone - I guess it was left untouched from Stars cafe. It becons for a tiki transformation.
- Provide waitstaff some tiki training.
One of the guys in suits who saw me examining the tall tikis off the bar proudly announced that "this was tiki!" However, when I asked him whether it was based on the Marquesas style and where they acquired them, he went completely blank and moved on.
- Do something with the exterior.
A huge, blank, naked wall, except for Trader Vic's lettering, and a tiny door, does not make for a very inviting, much less tiki, first impression. A large tiki (bolted down) would be appropriate.
After passing the larger than life restaurant on the corner, Trader Vics appears to be downright hiding.
- Make their shirts in XXL, for men of substance.
- A waterfall. Every Tiki bar needs a waterfall.
