The Vegas location is slated to go in the Desert Passage mall, that is adjacent to the alladin. They have a lease on a 2 story 10,000sf space that overlooks the strip and has some outdoor terrace areas, on the north side of the property overlooking bellagio and paris. right now i would think they might be opoen sometime next summer.

Alladin is in the process of renovating to become a Planet Hollywood Casino, and Desert Passage is also changing thier name and re-vamping.

It had escaped me that Trader Vic’s is lined up for a Las Vegas location. I wonder if it will be in a casino or a stand-alone. I think real-deal Tiki places in Las Vegas should thrive if they focus on the local population (and visitors willing to track it down) rather than being in a casino full of “general” Las Vegas tourists. What better place for the harried casino employee, ears ringing with slot machine noises, to escape to? (Reality check: casino employees in LV tend to unwind in … casinos. But still…)
