Tropical - Calgary

This usually is my go to spot, there’s a lady there who is ALWAYS nice to me and very helpful , unfortunately the past few times the service has been terrible. I went on a Thursday the door was locked even though they were open...and one of the waitresses stared at me trying to open the door and basically watched me struggle to open the door , went today (Friday Night) and waited half an hour for someone to even acknowledge I was there .... as much as I loved this spot It makes me not want to spend my money there .

Do not go here! I visited with a friend and we ended up walking out after not seeing our food for an hour and a half. We should have heeded all the terrible reviews online. They straight up forgot or missed our order somehow, we...knew this because after an hour of sitting there I enquired about my drink (after twice trying to bring me red wine I hadn’t ordered), another waiter came by to ask us what we’d ordered for food as well. When we followed up with our waitress as to where our food was or how long it would be she said to be patient because they were very busy. Complete with sass. We could see they were busy! Duh. We watched people just in front of us in line to get in eat and leave before we even had our drinks. Had they owned up to forgetting our meal or apologized we might gave stayed. The people beside us also waited ages for their food and said it wasn’t good food. How is this joke even in business? I shall toast myself with sangria when it closes. Which it will.

I live in Calgary and I have been a regular at Tropical for the last years. All I can say is great place! Any age appropriate, food is great, the drinks too! If you have to be in town on the weekend, make sure...to stop by for great dance! They offer different parties such as neon, retro, etc. Management is great, I have dealt with it numerous times, all for good reasons.

We were biking by on Sunday and stopped by as we had wanted to try this place and we saw on the wall that happy hour was from on Sunday however when we went in the waitress said happy hour was from When...I questioned and pointed to what was written literally on the wall she said no it was She said she could ask but confirmed We left! Change your wall or honor what you put on it or covered it up! Too bad as we were hungry but that was just silly to me that they wouldn't honor it!

Alright! My husband and I have been looking for the best place in YYC for taco Tuesday and I we have landed here at Tropical! Not only was the food delicious, but the service was more than expected. They were very friendly and efficient. We...had walked by in a Friday night the week before and it looks like they have quite the night club scene in the evening. You will not be disappointed!
