Tropics Grille

1 year ago I'm an 80 year old Veteran and long time Tropics customer. My partner and I were attacked and Spit On by an unruly Patron (the Spitzco Kid) on a Friday night and Tropics owner Khan Brashir was present and did nothing. What happened was Spitzo, a mid-30 something Middle Easterner with a punched in nose, stormed through a crowd and shoved into the back of another man and wine was spilled all over me. We didn't know either person as we had just happened to be passing by but they started getting into a physical fight. The following Friday, Spitzco came up to me and pretended to apologize for the previous week but then he suddenly tried to start a fight with my Partner as he turned and shoved him in the face. The idiot started yelling at us as he mistakenly thought my Partner was the person he got into a fight with the week before and he wanted to resume the fight. Spitzo the Coward then disgustingly Spit on us. What a Cowardly Act and who knows what disease he has???? Then he shoved me and cowardly ran to the safety of his friends and kept yelling at us and calling us names. We stopped a member of the Staff who then witnessed him Spit again at us and kick my Partner in the shin. The Staff member told him to quit or he'd be thrown out and he got the Owner, Khan Brashier. Khan pretended to be nice and assured us they would throw Spitzco out of the Restaurant. However, Khan did nothing and 5 minutes later we saw him patting Spitzco on the shoulder and kissing him on the cheek. A few minutes after that we were further subjected to taunts and name calling from across the room by Spitzo and his friend Cicero Marculino, a short muscular Brazilian with a tattoo on his right arm and they yelled threats and taunts at us from across the room. Real tough guys.....not!!!! We just laughed at them. We later found out the identity of Spitzo to be Marco Badarnah although he should change his name to Marcie. We filed a Police report but Tropics would not assist by providing the surveillance video. I've known Khan for many years and thought he was a man of character but showed that he is just a 2-faced Liar. Disgusting that he'd allow an elderly man and his Partner to be attacked in his establishment by some Low Life. We have been loyal Customers for 20 years but there are better places to go on the Drive than tired, old Tropics. The food, the service and the quality of the customers has gone downhill ever since Khan Brashier purchased Tropics. Sad.

Over a year ago New owners have ruined a good thing. Quality and selection of food has gone downhill. Prices are up. Used to go often but have stopped going.

Pretentious

They told me they improved the restaurant quality..... Nehhhh!!!! worst and more expensive. Watch out for their weekly ripoff called two for one. the prices are jumped to 3 time the value just for your convenience. Drinks? they increased the prices and reduced the quantity by serving smaller glasses

Tired or retired?

Nice big place, had very expensive dinner, just ok. Lot's of older gentlemen, sugar daddies. They need more events like the other local bars do, might bring more people.

A disappointment

Tropics doesn't do justice to its clientele. The service is ok. The atmosphere needs an update. The food needs help. * * *
