Trader Vics Now Open For Lunch, Downtown Financing To Become A Lot More Drunk

Los Angelenos were bereft when Trader Vics closed its original Beverly Hills outpost, fearing that the establishment's four page cocktail menu was lost for good. There was obviously much rejoicing when it was announced that the restaurant was moving to the new LA Live complex, downtown LA's miniature Times Square.

Trader Vics made some changes during the transition, some cosmetic and a few less so. Of course the cocktail menu stayed largely stable. But the interior was changed from the old kitchy maritime Polynesian theme to the new very, very kitchy Tiki Room Polynesian theme. Hula dancers are involved.

Another change for the restaurant - at least as far as its LA Live location goes - is the introduction of a lunch menu. The menu will be available Monday-Friday 11am-3pm.
