With the Polynesian style and decor the restaurant centers around its unique Chinese oven, dating back to the Han Dynasty. The oven, with its soaring temperatures, is essential to so many of the dishes offered at Trader Vic’s. A larger cocktail area leading into the dining room will greet guests, with the familiar woodcarvings and aquariums playing a major role in creating just the right ambiance. Friendly and roomy, the Mai Tai bar is an ideal place to sit and chat while sipping on one of the house specialty cocktails.
