As someone who goes to Trader Vic's pretty much weekly their Happy Hour menu has been revamped and is a HUGE let down on not only drinks featured but portions of appetizers versus price you pay.

Its pretty lame compared to how great it was less than 3 weeks ago.

They did bring back their extensive cocktail menu and all of the drinks I had were fantastic.

Not too impressed with how much ice they use in their mai tais--I think you get 3-4 sips--but the flavor is great.

Also they just started using these awesome vintage style paper coasters which is new for them.

Nice to see this vintage touch make a return:

Celebrated our wedding anniversary at TV’s Emeryville on 23 January. Had Drinks in the afternoon. Dinner in the evening. The appetizers were so generous/filling that we had to move our dinner reservations to 8:00 from 6:00. Everything was perfecto! Musta just snuck in under the wire.
Miguel was working behind the bar and I recall mention of some forthcoming drink menu changes. Sounded at the time like just some additions would be made. I Like dem coasters!
Mahalo Sandra!
