I had a similar crappy experience at the old Beverly Hills TV - maybe we TC'ers just expect too much of Trader Vic's. We want perfect drinks, food, and service, and are sorely disappointed when the restaurant fails to deliver.

The best Trader Vic's experience I had was in Las Vegas - we just walked in, ordered tons of pupus, drank and laughed. I didn't have high expectations, and didn't get all bent when the bartender gave my girlfriend a Menehuene Juice that was much darker brown than my Mai Tai - we just switched drinks, moved on, and ordered Navy Grogs next round.

Ragbag - doesn't seem like complaining does much good, eh? What to do?
