See them BOTH! The negative comments about the Tonga room can be misleading-it is still a beautiful place and, in my opinion, a MUST SEE. The food varies between so-so and pretty good and either the manager or asst. (I can't remember) can be a real a-hole at times (he once told a very pregnant woman that he will have her kicked out if she doesn't stop blocking the area next to the bar stools). The rest of the staff is fine, though. Trader Vic's in Emeryville is also a must.
