Decor

Each restaurant, though consistent in theme and aesthetic, has its own unique personality, and no two are exactly alike. We source the most unusual decor items from around the world including antique tribal masks and tiki carvings, natural exotic materials such as tapa cloth, woven grass wall-coverings and tropical fabrics, indigenous artifacts such as woven fish traps and hand-hewn canoes, and Polynesian-inspired color palettes, lighting fixtures, and furnishings. Our goal is to help each franchise partner create an authentic tropical haven where guests can immerse themselves in a sophisticated oasis of lush sights, exotic sounds and delicious smells in an environment inspired by the South Pacific.

Food

Our menu showcases the best of cuisines from around the world including Chinese, Japanese, Polynesian, Vietnamese, Thai, French, and Californian. We strive for authentic preparations and every Trader Vic's location features our world-famous Chinese wood-fired oven, where meat, fish and fowl are slowly roasted to perfection in the true 'roti' tradition. Our comprehensive training programs for both kitchen and support personnel meet the same high standards, and we ensure that every chef candidate is highly seasoned and experienced before receiving a personalized training program.
