What a corporation of cowards trader vics has become. They have a great, unique niche not filled by any other company, and what do they do? Run from it and take the low road by trying to morph into what has already been done by a thousand companies before them. We don't need the 1,001th new sushi restaurant, sports bar, bahama breeze, etc. I believe they would have had more success by going overboard on tiki only and leaving those other genres to the companies that are already doing them.

Who wants to watch a baseball game while listening to hawaiian music, or immerse oneself in Polynesia with a baseball game on? Either way IT DOESN'T WORK!!!

I go to Trader Vic's for a unique experience in dining and libations; not to have a pale version of sushi, eat caribbean food in a non-caribbean setting, and certainly not to watch the baseball game!! I will go to other establishments for those.

There efforts to follow the crowds won't work.
