The staff is lovely, the food is ok, but the venue is radically opposed to complying with health regulations in Palm Springs. No mask, no vaccination check, even through they make these representations on Yelp, Google, and OpenTable(check it out)

We love dining at Tropicale for many reasons . I wish to bring to the restaurants attention - disconnect with verbal information versus info on OpenTable . Cancellations less than 48 hrs are charged $250.00 . The OpenTable platform - $250.00 per pers

Tony D, I’m excited to try this place in January—but maybe tone down the intensity of your Yelp responses to critical reviews. Comes across as way too defensive. Just word of advice; I’ll be there next month regardless :)

I just visited the Tropicale the last two Sunday's, and I just love the place. What put's the place over the top, besides the great sushi...is the maitre from Minnesota...love her!!

As a PSP resident we're regulars at this, our favourite Palm Springs gem.
We bring all of our houseguests, our neighbors and other locals.
We're unbothered by the vaccination mandates since we're so grateful to be in a safe environment. Proudly no

I am writing to let you know that when I visit PS a couple times a year, I always patronize your fabulous restaurant but because of the mandate for vaccine passports I am sad and cannot return until the draconian mandate is eliminated. Best to Tony!

It’s 12/5 and we will lose our outdoor dining privileges Sunday. I am thankful for my reservations tonight as a regular. I got lucky tonight and can’t wait for the enjoyment. I love everything about Tropicale and it’s people. Thank you so much.

Any idea if Tropicale is serving the regular menu on Thanksgiving, or a prix fixe?

Servers need more customer service training. Unprofessional. Food was ehh and way overpriced. I was overcharged for my food and the service is definitely NOT worth the price. Do better

I’ve been going to Tropicale for years and have NEVER had bad service or food.
All you crybaby, paranoid, virtual signaling weenies complaining about not having to wear masks or social distancing should just go eat somewhere else.

Service and quality are lacking! The steak was tough! One pizza was made wrong - the correct version arrived when the rest of the party was finished eating. Mgmt said it’s the policy to make no adjustments for that. NEVER eat here! It’s horrible!

The experience was disheartening for me but I think my partner was more affected by it than I was. He had never actually experienced the contempt that people have toward police, mostly because I shield it from him. It was devastating for him.

My partner and I went here not knowing they required a reservation. The staff quickly accom. and provided us a seat in the bar area. The food & service was amazing until one of the managers looked at my wallet and saw my police ID.

We would have had an awesome Happy Hour two days ago on the patio....appropriate table spacing, use of masks by staff, and very tasty food and beverages but.....the flies circling our table totally ruined our evening. YIKES! Intolerable.

Wow. Love your restaurant but just read your response to someone complaining about no masks or
social distancing in the restaurant.
You told that person to go to the ICU where everyone wears masks. What an idiot you are. You can’t fix stupidit

...Maybe try the IC unit (sic) where they wear masks all the time and gloves, and gowns, and spay sanitizer everywhere. That might work." Time to give Tony his pink slip.

"Comment by Tony D of the Tropicale. First of all, all your comments are 1-star, so...you're a joke. Secondly IT IS NOT OUR RESPONSIBILITY WEATHER YOU OR ANY OTHER GUEST IN OUR RESTAURANT WEARS A MASK. If that doesn't work for you, stay home...

I dined at Tropicale on Sat 6/20. I used my Chase card. The card was away from the table while the charge was authorized. On 6/25 at 5:35PM an online trans was made to my card. I did not make the charge. Could my card have been copied by Trop staff?

I've been informed that the owners of Tropicale are rabid Trump supporters. The reason they are not social distancing or wearing masks is to follow Trump. I have no idea if this is true. I would like the owners to respond. Thanks you.

Are all tables 6 feet away with compliance with the state, I heard they are not, how safe is that.

Had dinner this past weekend. Glad you are reopen, but really disappointed there was no regard for social distancing. No tables removed (waiter told me the two-tops were taken out) Place as crowded as ever. A favorite, but won’t be back.

I just wanna let you know that 3-4 weeks ago AG Bill Barr sent out the link to 'Under Color Law' about cops breaking the laws. I informed AG Bill Barr about the cop and Palm Springs police dept breaking constitutional rights/laws. link next post

I read about what happened with the fine and the disrespectful treatment by code enforcement. I am so sorry that that happened and wish you well.

I read about the fine you received. If you start a gofundme account, I will contribute! I am too small to fight city hall, but I hope you can. Palm Springs is too draconian.

The food is absolutely delicious at Tropicale, but yesterday I had a skirt steak that was very tasty, but boy was it tough to cut (shoe leather, and I mean tough, and I was too embarrassed to send it back,

Ok, I don't want to do this because I love this place. I know multiple servers it is my local. However, the TG dinner was so appalling I was sick for a day. Too much salt in the soup, too much dark meat. Had a table of 7 and $800 and I was starving.

Rarely, and I mean very rarely does a restaurant deliver consistent excellence the way The Tropicale does. We are always delighted and we are never disappointed. From food and drink quality to atmosphere and service, The Tropicale is simply the best!
