Actually, this place is still very much in business! They even have a website at http://www.taboorestaurant.com/

Ta-boo is known one of the favorite watering holes of the Palm Beach "Society" crowd.

It is one of those places that reeks of secret liasons and wispered gossip. It is not uncommon to see really famous folks in there, having a drink. I actually sat next to F.Lee Bailey at the bar one night. And have seen Jimmy Buffet, Hunter S. Thompson, and Brooke Shields in there, over the years.

It is very non-tiki today, but the owners have always changed the place, to reflect the current tastes. It is worth a visit, if you are in the area, as it is one of the cooler spot on the island of Palm Beach. Not a good spot to really tie one on, as the police on the island recognize people who are not locals, and watch them very closely.
