Trader Vic's is the iconic home of Pupu platters and the inventor of the Mai Tai, made famous by Trader Vic Bergeron himself. Now reborn with Hotel Valley Ho flair, this legendary Polynesian classic returned to downtown Scottsdale in 2006. From the moment you arrive, the design and architecture of this unique facility are sure to impress with a choice of comfortable indoor dining or dining on the lushly landscaped patios. Award winning service levels, personalized attention of General Manager Andre Nicholson, and a flavorful culinary experience of Asia and the islands as reinterpreted by Executive Chef Justin Pfielsticker with Chef Charles Wiley, are sure to please. Trader Vic's prides itself on the finest, farm-fresh ingredients from local purveyors and specific regional seasonings for a true fusion of Hawaiian/Polynesian cuisine with Asian and French influences. The culinary team uses a variety of multi-ethnic island cooking methods including the slow-roasting methods of the trademark Chinese Wood Fired Oven and custom built Wok stations. Always the perfect islands escape.
