I cannot add much more than what JT has said:

My favorites (roughly in order) are:

Munich
Tokyo
Atlanta

and possibly:

Emeryville (I haven't seen the remodel yet)
London (my last visit was 10 years ago)

Munich is THE place any fan of Trader Vic's should visit. It is simply the best in the world out of the dozen or so I have visited. Classic in every sense of the word, a veritable time capsule and seemingly still quite popular. One trip, one Vic's to see? Munich, hands down.

Tokyo is my favorite though, for personal reasons. It is smaller than Munich and does not share the subterranean feature, but is nonetheless a great location. Great food, good drinks, fabulous service in a beautiful space.

Atlanta is the great Vic's that remains stateside. Similar in feel and layout to London it possesses the requisite Trader Vic's features I seek: the old decor/look, the basement location. It's a gem. If Joel is still there it's a gem with a great bar manager.

Then again, I like all Trader Vic's, they're all great! No, wait, there was Vegas. Yeah...Vegas.

Fan boy,
