Club Tropicana — Restaurant in Houston

• Do not go to this place It's a total rip-off, let's just start with the parking, my fiancé and I drove all the way from Tomball to this horrible venue, we pulled up to the parking lot just to be told that they would charge us $20 to park "close to the club" and if we wanted we could choose a most modest pricing area "in the back" so we drove around and almost got hit by one of the valet parking attendant which was driving one of the customer's vehicle at a rapid pace thru a steep ditch and not caring to bottom up this high end vehicle, once we got to the "attendant" he told me that they had 2 different prices depending where you wanted to park, so I paid him $10 and asked me to park way out in the back by a wooden fence where there is no lighting at all, so I asked him why I couldn't park close to the street since it was empty, his reply was " you have to pay me $20 of you want to do that" at that point I asked for my money back ,we moved to a parking that was NOT connected to their lot and he came to tell me that I couldn't park there because it belonged to them also...he then thread me and told me that if I was going to get rough he would call the cops on me..I said please call them and I will be here seating and perhaps they could explain why was I asked to move out of a parking lot that belonged to a complete non related business. By that time my fiance and I decided to go elsewhere where we could be treateed with respect. I could imagine what the service is like inside! And after reading a lot of reviews,I'm glad we made the decision of not ever setting foot in a place like this. If you're looking for a good place to dance please...

Last night was a complete waste of driving time and money. There was no band, but still charged $15 plus parking. That was a rip-off. They didn't tell anyone that there was no band. I complained to the manager, but the guy was completely unresponsive. His sorry ass excuse was “the band cancelled”. Then, I asked “ why the $15 cover charge for and why there is no sign that there is no band tonight?” Even though I didn’t even set foot past the cashier because I saw that there was no band, they refused to give me my money back. They rip-off everyone last night. I will not be going there anymore. The place used to be $10 with a live band, then a year or so ago it increased to $12. This year they got even greedier and increased it to $15 (nothing added, no renovation, same old place and same routine weekend band). As a result, even on a good Saturday, the place is not even half full. People moved to other places, Which I applauded because the price is too high for what people get in return, plus parking and drinks. This is Houston for God’s sake. This manager should be fired because he is running the place to the ground. It used to be a good place. Now for a couple it's easily added up to $100 for the night with cover charge, plus parking and drinks. That is NOT sustainable for the crowd that used to go there.Is the owner...

We went due to a friend's raving review. She had a blast with her girls the first time they went.

...Our first mistake was to arrive with more guys than girls in the group. I was wearing a button up shirt, pants, and sneakers and nearly got kicked out because the bouncer thought I was wearing running shoes. I was not, and other men in the club were wearing dirty vans and shorts. Made no sense but once the bouncer saw he was losing a wealthy patron of i wasn't let in, "they made an exception." Pretty upsetting right off the bat but we went in and bought drinks. The manager welcomed us and hoped we have a good time.

Music was great, and we danced for about an hour until the same bouncer came back as a high school hero. He put a damper on our fun because my buddy was "not dancing" while on the dance floor... He was crossing the floor back from the restroom and was made felt like a criminal.

My friend's wife attempted to sit down after dancing a while and our same friend from the front came by, said that chair couldn't be sit on if it wasn't AT the table and pushed her off very rudely. Push men all you want but that is no way to treat a lady.

Will definitely not come back. Don't go if you're not a girl; you'll be on a slippery slope...
