Tropkia On Cambie - Vancouver

Meal was not that good. Menu has many choices for meals from several Asian countries. Location on Cambie was good but restaurant itself a bit tired. Staff ok. Unlikely to return.

Drove passed-by this place pretty often, finally one day decided to stop -by and try. Well, not too bad.. Wide variety in Menu list. But taste was less original (compared to other Malaysian restaurant). The Satay were a little bit oily and the Nasi Goreng was too sweet. Other than that, portion, presentation and service were good.

The restaurant been around for long time , during the good old days , lot of location , but now they all permanently closed , only Cambie location remain open my last visit less few years back , it is a while since my brother and sisters seen each another for once a month get together dinner , decor very cozy clean and spacious , the menu is authentic Thai , Malaysian cuisine , not busy at all , lot of open tablets , I ask for a nice large round tablet , Manager very friendly , good Can Do Attitude , menu lot of choice . little disappointing to say the quality is not the same before the Covid !? it is truly authentic Malaysian cooking before the pandemic , but now ????? their signature Hainanese Chicken is very slimy , the curry is good well balance with the flavour , Satays some items is very dried , but the lamb is delicious , The spicy jumbo Prawns vermicelli so spicy and we request mild ! and the Eggplant so oily almost like Eggplant Soup little pricy what you get and what you pay , also portion are very small for dinner . over all , not impressed , there is a lot of good quality Malaysian restaurants around the area , also beware people with Peanut Allergies , make sure you tell the staff and Manager know , because Malaysian cooking do us a lot of peanut and spicy for their ingredients !

Tropika has been around for a long time if i remember correctly. They used to have many locations, but I think they closed some of them over the years. Tropika has been one of my favourites, their dishes are flavourful and good place for families. I always order their chicken satay, prawn cakes, pompano fish, pine apple fried rice and pork chops. I think those are my go to dishes. Their roti is also not bad, but personally not my taste. The restaurant used to get very busy and loud before covid-19. Service is very typical Asian restaurant, ie you have to flag down servers to get things. But food comes out fairly quickly and servers responds very promptly. I hope they don’t close more locations as it’ll be a shame to lose this restaurant from this city’s dining scene.

Have been coming to this restaurant once a week for years. They have said that they are only taking cash for takeout. During the pandemic most people are not carrying cash. They have lost a costumer due to their lack of flexibility. Did not seem to care that they lost a long time costumer
