The maitre d' says they are taking reservations for the restaurant through next December but the axe could fall at any moment. The Mai Tais are as strong as ever and I didn't mind the band playing at 8:15pm so much. I wonder if that's the last I'll see the place. A friend of mine who lives in the area says the developers are trying to say that no one really goes there anymore, just the occasional sad tourist, so why bother saving the restaurant, 5-star hotels don't have Tiki lounges, etc. [ Edited by: tikifred 2010-05-24 07:52 ]
