Troppo's have become inconsequential and irrelevant . This is 4 days of wonderful homemade squash soup. (Burn by Chef Becky Jones). (See photes) the current head chef dan rey) menus are basic at best, you can see he(dan rey) has pick off other menu in the area and has fallen flat.. all (dan rey's) restaurants are empty (all) just because troppo's feeds the parasites of the Capital and House, didn't give (dan) clairvoyance to the food scene on the east side of the state.. His standard is fast, fast, frozen, pre made and reheated... I appreciated in Lincoln, Nebraska and everything I did was from scratch.. I have won more awards then troppo's.

Had I used the bathroom before eating, I would not have eaten there. It was mid afternoon and empty inside; however, the bathrooms were nasty, no soap (water was in the bottle) and vomit all over the stalls. The manager (who denied he was manager) seemed only to pacify us with our concerns. It was also very unfortunate that items on the menu couldn't be ordered. We often dine at many different restaurants across our wonderful state... This is at the bottom.

First time at Troppo, and the food and service was amazing. Highly recommend the calamari appetizer. Flavor and presentation were wonderful. read more First time at Troppo, and the food and service was amazing. Highly recommend the calamari appetizer. Flavor and presentation were wonderful.

There’s a noticeable lack of pride and passion, and the place is nearly empty. This chain of restaurants has lost its relevance. I recently tried their homemade squash soup, which was unfortunately burnt, courtesy of Chef Becky Jones. The current head chef, Dan Rey, offers a basic menu that seems to borrow heavily from other local establishments. All of Dan Rey's restaurants are lacking in patrons. While Troppo's may try to appeal to the elite crowd in the Capital and the House, that doesn’t make Dan Rey a trailblazer in the eastern food scene of the state. His standards are disappointingly low, relying on fast, frozen, pre-made, and reheated meals. I have cooked from scratch and received more awards than Troppo's could dream of.

Although the wines were comparable, the bartender was rude when I inquired about the pour size. It seems that common sense and courtesy are missing in their hiring practices. This restaurant should prioritize making customers feel welcome, as they are vital for business success. In today’s social media age, staff should be especially friendly and accommodating. Troppo is developing a reputation for mistreating customers and needs to make improvements.
