I am with you Bohemiann - I am a big fan of vegas and a big fan of the classic polyneisian restaurants and things mid-century. Unfortunately they can not all be in the same place at the same time and people have to accept vegas for what it is today versus 50 years ago.

Birdgirl and I were in vegas in July and saw the TV sign and totally cringed at the "ultra lounge" reference. However, they will have an outside patio that may suit me just fine. Bottom line, all we can really hope for is well made food and (especially) drinks.

I don't care how authentic/classic the decor or whatever is (which of course would please us), if they do a bad job with the food and drinks, the place is dead. Alternatively, regardless of how obnoxious or "sexy" the place is (seriously, a condom?) many of us have expressed willingness to put up with a lot of crap if a place knows how to mix a beverage.

I am just as scared as everyone else that the place will suck, but let's not condemn the place before the first mai tai is poured....

By the way, I am going to have one of these buttons installed in my house and never leave home again.
