I find that surprising, given both Vic's in LA are just awful. Trader Vic's Portland is top-notch. I wrote about it elsewhere here on TC last year. Their bar, the cocktails, and the food was how a Trader Vic's should be. From the standpoint of sheer "tikiness" of the atmosphere and décor it exceeded the former Trader Vic's in Palo Alto. It is sad that there are so many reports of crappy Trader Vic's restaurants. It is good that there are at least a few which still hold the standard high.
