Being in an upscale hotel you only expect the best food, and that's what you'll get here at the tonga room. The dishes are delicious, the dessert is awesome & the drinks to die for. The mai tais are the best! while eating you can enjoy the music & even dance a little. I take my parents here every so often & each time they have a different menu! so much to choose from.

I took my aunty at Tonga room for her birthday along with my sisters and it was bad the minute we arrived at the place.....I stopped in front of the Fairmont hotel and the valet attendant asked if we were checking in and I so no we are having dinner and he said that I am not allowed to do valet parking not unless I pay $50 for a valet parking, I thought it was rediculous for him to say I am not allowed to park there but I told him I didn't care if I have t pay that amount and he kept asking me at least 4 times and I was very offended just because I am Pacific Islander driving a very expensive car and I am young he assumed right away that I cannot afford to be there, that was very rude. When we got to the restaurants the lady set us on the cocktail side not asking if we were ging to have dinner or what not. Finally I told her we want to have dinner and she gave us attitude, the food was not very good and for the price it is absolutely not worth it, average chinese food nothing special. I do not like that place especially the valet parrking which I found out I didn't even have to pay for parking the attendant simply didn't like us because he felt like he was below us..... And we just wanted to have a good birthday celebration ft my aunty.

I was very disappointed in this place after reading all the great reviews. I went here for my birthday and the hostess was very rude. She wanted to remind my party that we all had to order an entree to be seated. I'm assuming because we all looked young and might not have been able to afford our meals? The food was not as delicious as I had hoped and definitely not worth the money paid. I felt that you could get much better food for much cheaper elsewhere. However, the waiter was very nice and brought out a free piece of cheesecake for me. I don't like to be a negative customer and usually always try to look on the bright side of things because but this place really didn't deserve my money. Pros: Fun environment Cons: too expensive for mediocre food, horrible hostess

We arrived during happy hour and it was wild. We all decided to stay for dinner and were seated at a great table overlooking the lagoon. The food and service were excellent. We ordered several entrees for the table and shared. What a way to go. The Salmon, Chicken Curry, Mongolian Beef, Pepper Beef and Rib Eye Steak were out of this world. Our waiter has worked there for years and knew the place inside and out. My friends and I just went for happy hour and by the time we left the band was finishing their last set. The music was upbeat and the dance floor was packed. The Tonga Room should be on everyones destination list. It was more than just dinner, drinks and dancing with friends. The Tonga Room was an adventure. Pros: Ambience, Food, Service, Dancing, Music

Its a waste of money and time. The service is horrible. The only reason this place survives is perhaps because of tourists. The wait staff and the server were all rude and rarely available. Its more like a communist regime where one cannot complain, eat and drink what's served and if served in time. Pros: Ambience ( After lot of thinking) Cons: None

The Tonga Room was a great experience. The food and service were outstanding. I had visited the Tonga Room for dinner a few years ago and WOW has it improved. The decor is incredible, the food was outstanding, and our server was very attentive to our every need. What a night we had. Dinner, Dancing, and Tropical Storms with great food, exciting drinks, and a great wine list. The Tonga Room is a place everyone should experience either go during Happy Hour, Dinner, or late night drinks and dancing. Pros: ambience, food, service

What a horrible experience...It was freezing in the restaurant, the wait staff was rude and condescending, the food over-priced, the drinks wimpy...I could go on. Don't waste your money there.

Some may call this the Tacky Tiki, but it still is a top notch restaurant. For good food, entertainment and dancing, you just can't beat it. From the potstickers to the lobster, everything was excellent and well-priced. Go and just have fun, with the lightning, rain and entertainment, a great place to not take things so seriously. My wife and I had a great time. Pros: Fun atmosphere and great food. Cons: Server was very good, but a little slow.

I see the Tonga Room as a place to go when you are looking for something different. It's a tiki bar -- which is supposed to be a little cheesy -- and has rooti-tuti-fresh-and-fruity drinks that are also not the most refined things in the world (except maybe a Mai-Tai). It's a place to go because it is different and not a place to go for relaxing, fine dining, or cheap drinks. Although the drinks are a little costly (I mean, you are in a Fairnont hotel), they are pretty damn strong. I find this to be a great place to take out of town visitors. They get a real kick out of it -- even dancing to the 80s and 90s covers by the band. And for the drinks -- with one group we ended up ordering a lot of bowl drinks and ended up with something stronger than a scorpion bowl (and I didn't know that was even possible). I personally wouldn't eat there (too costly for what you get) -- but it's fun for that something different you want to do.
