Description:



I picked up a menu at the recent paper show from The Luau restaurant located in La Jolla.



The food choices.



The address is now the Su Casa Mexican Restaurant that advertises as being established in 1967 - so the Luau didn't last long.





The amazing thing about this one was the blatant rip-off of the imagery from Steve Crane's Luau restaurant located in Beverly Hills.




I have also seen a drink menu and matchbook from the La Jolla Luau (just missed the drink menu at the paper show).










Lets play the "What's Different?" game on the menu covers.




Maybe Bosko knows a little more about this one?

Holly Shit!
I've been to that Su Casa about 4 times in 20 years.
Good to know.
thanks for the post, and what it is now.
