text: Sigh I really so wanted to love this place as I am a fan of all things Tiki But no joy here We are staying at the Tahiti Village separate review and wanted a place to watch the Super Bowl without being overrun by niner fans we were both raised on the Raiders and they were out of it by OctobernnSo we paid the for all the coconut shrimp and appetizers you can eat got our wrist bands and settled innnAt kickoff everyone headed to the buffet line And there the joy died The coconut shrimp were tasteless wilted and barely identifiable There were other similarly unhappy offerings some tiny deepfried unidentifyable bits nacho fixings how the heck does one get that many halfstale chips together The little hot dogs were good as were the wings But if there was anything in that kitchen other than a microwave a flat top and a deepfryer it was not in evidence nnThe single bright spot was the dude behind the bar named Randy Good guy personable kept glasses full and things going despite his team getting crushednBut seriously despite the folks that I know must be trying hard that kitchen needs some serious help
