Who would go to an Italian joint to even order a legit mai tai anyway?

Nobody. People don't go to Olive Garden for drinks, outside of maybe some blended red with their meal. The mai tai is there solely because it's a name most have probably heard before, although never tried, and may well go "What the heck--I'll give it a try." It's a lure, nothing more (although bait-and-switch is more accurate).
