I occasionally made the trek from the Orlando area. Florida needs some cool tiki places. There aren't any I know of except shitty "Wai-Tiki" in downtown Orlando. No tiki drinks, just $2.50 red stripe. Wai-Tiki can at least make a serviceable Caipirinha. Not that it's Tiki, but it's something. I only recently even learned that there was a Trader Vic's entity in Sarasota, and when I saw the horrible online reviews my enthusiasm was somewhat tempered. Very sad they didn't do a better job of it.
