The sign says its a bamboo lounge and Polynesian restaurant. Two big fake palm trees at the door. I havent seen the place, my husband just drove by it a few minutes ago and reported this. I called the restaurant and asked if they had any tiki statues, and the lady said "yes". She also said they serve Polynesian food and have a Japanese hibachi. I am going to go there as soon as I can and check it out. My husband fears its a Jimmy Buffett style place and he warned it will never be the same as the Mai Kai or the Bahooka or the Tiki Ti, and thats probably right but the lady did say yes when asked about tikis. So I will report back to TC! In the meantime, has anyone been there??? Make Mine A Mai Tai! [ Edited by: TikiGoddess on 2003-03-26 17:01 ]
