If you have a couple of hours to kill read these old threads (oldest one first) for the lowdown. https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=168&forum=1 https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=487&forum=1 https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=511&forum=1 https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=804&forum=1 https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=997&forum=1 https://tikicentral.com/viewtopic.php?topic=1505&forum=1

Well then...Actually I thought the Aladdin (when they got around to it) served a pretty good Mai Tai. Soooooo I guess I'll hit Cheeseburger in Paradise (near the Aladdin) and just go from there. I do appreciate the *buyer beware comments and seeing how several of the LA Tiki Bars have been equally loved by many on this board I will trust that missing the Taboo Cove at this point will be no large mistake.

Yes! You should go see it, just to see it. Also, being Vegas, who knows how long it will be around for. And Cheeseburger in Paradise, DON"T get the burgers. Al and Shelly said the burgers were bad, and I'm all, "they can't be that bad." Boy, was I sorry.

I thought that the Zombie was pretty good. Just be sure you get there early in the evening when the music is'nt the dance party bull sh*t. Also make sure it's one of the two girls that work there to make your drink for you. Maybe the Jab got a drink from one of the "Cocktail" bottle jugglers. Those guys are so retarded. I've always had a good time when I've been there. Go with an open mind.

They crusted the rim of the Martini Glass with toasted coconut. Very tasty! I know many of the peeps here hate that bar but the one time I was there, me and mine had a great time. In my not-so-humble opinion, anyting bar with Bosko in it can't be all that baaaaaaaad! So drink up, DAMN YOU!
