Has anyone noticed that Trader Vic's LA Live is not as popular as the YardHouse? - General Tiki

The YardHouse is enjoyable, I've been there, too, but I don't see why so many would prefer it. Is it because it is a better known chain? Maybe because the prices are cheaper? Maybe because it is less intimidating as it is big room, with virtually no decor other than TVs? I don't understand.
