We frequently ate at a couple of local Polynesian restaurants, whose names I forget. I think the one in West Hartford was called the South Seas. There was another about 10 miles west of that in Canton. They both had fountain pools with ceiling to floor waterfall cascades; soft Hawai'ian guitar in the background. They were still around in the 70s and 80s, but I think they bit the dust in the 90's. Whenever my mom took me on a long road trip with her, we'd usually opt to stop at a Polynesian restaurant if we saw one. Loved the food.
