I find these reports of people walking out with the decor to be curious.

Sure, the glassware and menus will vanish, but historically all of the Tikis and substantial items have been reclaimed and stored by the Trader Vic's people, to be used in future restaurant openings.

From their earliest 1970s closures right up to the closing of Chicago a few months ago, they've always kept the good stuff to reuse.
