Tropikis - Winnipeg

The host at the front counter was friendly, amazing and pleasant. She even gave me a free salad to try with my meal. Although I did not want a salad, she was insistant that i try it. I am thankfull as it was the only thing that was eatable in the end. I told her I judged all caribean restaurant by the quality of the oxtail. The oxtail i was seved was by far the worst I have ever eaten. It was solid rubber, I could not event cut it with a knife much less chew it.she told me the chef cooked it for 2 days. Either he forgot to turn the stove on, or does not have a pressure cooker in the back. The oxtail was served with a coconut and red pea gravy? vs. Lima bean in a true oxtail sauce. The rice &peas had chunks of carrots in the same coconut flavor making both dishes bland and acidic. You could not taste one from the other. I was truly disappointed as I was looking forward to a good meal. Now I am sitting on the toilet with a belly ache writing this review. $30 down the drain. TROPIX YOU NEED TO DO BETTER!Parking: 3 spots at the back. Lots of parking on the road

Salad is 5/5. Oxtail is 1/5 way too chewy that it tastes like a “quick cook”. Service is 1/5 Unsolicited “advice” from the waitress. Atmosphere is great. Will not be

Amazing rotis, love the wraps, very filling! We tried the goat, the elk and the chicken. Each protein is spiced an flavoured distinctly to match and enhance the meat. This place has been around for many years and has a loyal following.

I had the half chicken and beef roti. The food was very good. The beef was very tender and full of flavor. The lady taking the order was very nice.

The woman working there is an absolute nightmare. We used to bring that place SO MUCH business, but now my coworkers and I argue about who has to go in to pay which inevitably ends in us not going. Yes, she is that horrible.Example: raised their prices without any updates to their menu. Buddy goes to pay. We had included a tip on a pickup order. Not knowing the prices had gone up, the total basically ate the tip. She got all snarky when handed the money. What, no tip?!? . I 've literally seen her pocket the cash tips. The cooks/other workers never see that money.Food is good, but dealing with her brings my star rating to 2.
