The Jasper White Summer Shack restaurant has preserved on one wall one of the Aku Aku original murals (at least as of June 2016) with a plaque about the history of the building and acknowledges the Moai heritage of their "sailor" statue. And they've kept the Aku Aku Scorpion Bowl and a Tiki drink on their cocktail menu (https://www.summershackrestaurant.com/shackmenus/#cocktails), so I think they've done most of what one could expect (or more) of a New England beach-house restaurant to respect their history.
