The Islander - Denver
Denver, Colorado, United States
Opened in 1964 as the Tiki Kai Supper Club, which was one of two locations, the other located in Albuquerque.
In 1971, the Denver-based Vegas show-band the Glass Menagerie purchased the building and renamed it The Islander. The Islander lasted until 1975, and then it became Herb Wong's New China restaurant (which still served Polynesian drinks in their Kahuna Cocktail Lounge) until being demolished in 1992.
Today this location is the SafeSplash Swim School.
*NOTE: The Islander at this location is not to be confused with the Tommy Wong's Island (circa. 1977 -1983) which was about 11 minutes South of this location. That Tommy Wong's location now appears (as of 2025) to be a parking lot adjacent a kosher deli.
