This restaurant/bar is located in the Tahiti Village resort in Las Vegas. I was told it would be opening shortly. Although, when I looked in the window, it appeared that there was still quite a bit of construction going on inside. Does anyone have any more information on this restaurant? I was here in early March 2007.

Yeah, carved up the logo tiki for them. I was hired by OA to carve it up and then LeRoy painted it and made it come to life.

I only did the tiki, but was hired through OA to do it. Bosko supplied them with some moulding and a couple of 6-7 foot tikis and said Oa also provided a ton of artifacts too. Let us know when it opens up.

My mom has a timeshare in Cancun from this parent company, she wants to trade it for the Tahiti Village in August so I might get a chance to check it out then.
Here's the web site for a "virtual tour" of the property...

Nothing on the restaraunt though...

Keep in mind that there are TWO Tahiti Village resorts in Las Vegas. The one with the TIKI bar is on the far south end of the strip on Las Vegas Blvd.
I hope they do this place up right. The Tahiti Village resort is sort of lacking in Tikiness. They have a few masks here and there, but the place needs to be taken up a few notches. Hopefully, this new bar will have a good Tipsy factor.
If you get a chance to go here, please keep us all posted...

i drove by the other day and looked in. the doors were closed, but there is a menu put up next to the door in a glass case. i will definitely go by this week one day after work. the place is only 1/2" mile from my house, maybe less.
2 nice tikis flanking the door, nice and shiny.
