    Space is empty now. Unsure of what will replace it. TI needs better dining options.

    The food and service was pretty horrible when I was there a few years back. Will not miss it!

    When I was at TI at the end of April, my favorite CW there told me that the space was going to be used for a sports bar/restaurant. I will check next week when I am back in town and see if I can get an update.

    Boy, when they screwed up Treasure Island, they did a fine job of it.

    The pirate theme worked so well in its heyday. But no, some genius decided let's re-name it TI, paint the building a boo-boo brown color, replace the skull and crossbones with a kindergarten color sign. Then the next genius said let's remove the pirates and sex up the battle out front with the scantily-clad Sirens with bad singing and dancing. Then another genius said let's make this hip and look like Cancun spring break with Senor Frogs. And now, some genius said hey I know, let's put in a superhero interactive attraction.

    Nice.

    It's sad to see the old pirate head at the Neon Boneyard. The TI theme was the best. I wish Phil Ruffin would get out of the casino business.

    My wife and I were their in May, Kahunaville was vacant. The Marvel comic attraction it at the north part of the hotel right before you walk out to cross the bridge over to Fashion show Mall. Like others have said, we do miss the old Treasure Island.

    Walked by yesterday. It is boarded up so it looks like nothing was ever there. There is a sign directing people to other dining options.
