Canoes Cabaret

This place turned out to be about the same as what I expected it would be. We were there on a Saturday night for a birthday party. We were in the VIP section. The section was in the back of the whole place, it had a waitress and fenced in seatings. That was about it. Nothing special. The well drinks were around 4.75. I thought it was not bad comparing to the drink prices outside, but I don't know what other casinos are charging. The band playing on Saturday night was Aphrodisiacs, they mainly sang 70s pop, disco songs. It was really not my cup of tea, but generally people think they are great. I am not sure I would give this place another chance in the future. Maybe another night of a week....

Purchased V.I.P. tickets with a friend for tonight's band. Apparently V.I.P. at Canoe's Cabaret stands for VERY IGNORED PATRONS. The band followed the Boxing championship so at the door we were told that the concert would be delayed. The woman at check-in allowed us to enter and watch the boxing match telling us that it would be ending very soon. She told us that after the match they would be shuffling tables around and if we didn't mind we could wait in there for the concert to start. I said "no problem" I didn't mind waiting or sitting through a bit of shuffling. After the match ended, an hour after the concert was supposed to start, someone came to our table and told us that we had to clear the room. No apologies for the delay, just clear the room. I said, "it's fine either way but you might want to communicate with the people at the door as she told us that if we didn't mind the shuffling around, we could remain inside" the woman then got defensive stating that she has worked there a long time and knows how things operate and that the lady shouldn't have told us that. Ok totally unprofessional lady, I am not your co-worker or one of your trainees. Thank me for communicating with you and tell me you'll talk to the woman up front... that would be the appropriate response to that. Once we were outside, we ended up waiting another 1/2 hour. No apology for any inconvenience, the same rude and defensive woman with Long bleach blonde hair, directed someone to a sign stating that the concert may start late due to the match. I understand that the match ran over, what I don't understand is how they think it is ok to be so unprofessional to customers who have patiently waited for 1.5 hours for a pre-paid show. I say "they" because when they finally allowed us to enter, it was as if they were doing us a huge favor. Not a single person acknowledged our long wait time, not even an "enjoy the show" from anyone. Ugh... what a garbage evening. The band was amazing... too bad I nolonger felt like dancing.

Called to reserve seats and was told that they do not reserve seating. Show up and 8 tables with 4 chairs each are reserved and nobody sitting in them. Happens every week. We're spending money and the management refuses my friends and family seating for high rollers that don't show up. Complete BS.

Fun place to go. My husband and I go almost every Saturday night for music and dancing. The crowd is usually a mix of young and old. Great for date night!

The Guy Johnson Band was playing.People were dancing! Service was great.If you like to gamble the slots are only steps away.

VIP Service needs to mean something at Canoes Cabaret!! We paid $300 for a very distant section from the band and dance floor. It was difficult to get service when our waiter wasn't exclusive as we had been told. It wasn't really a designated area when the last band started at 930p and a big group came in and encroached on the space we reserved without any management or wait staff saying anything. As is typical at a Casino we had people in our group coming and going to gamble. When 8-10 of our group came back in for the last band at 930-10p their tables and chairs were taken by the encroaching group. When a group reserves ahead of time for hundreds of dollars - we shouldn't need to worry getting our space back if we want to leave and come back!! We deserve a refund!!

I had a great time and I don't drink alcohol so I ordered a nonalcoholic Bloody Mary and they told me "no charge" the drinks are complimentary. The show was free, but it was quite a show and a lot of fun. The shows I saw were free but very impressive spectacle type productions. The staff couldn't have been more pleasant.

I am an older, retired attorney and my wife is a retired school teacher, and we are people of color.We have been coming to Tulalip Casino Resort for over a decade with great satisfaction due to the excellent facilities, competitive Comp program, entertainment program, and fair gaming tables and slots.Recently, however, we have had a number of VERY negative experiences: For example, we attended an UFC MMA PPV event (Jones v. Santos) on July 6, 2019, in the Canoes Cabaret and came in early at the start (5 pm) to obtain prime seating. After buying several drinks and food and waiting all evening for the main fight event to begin at 9 pm, the facility manager -- Carol/Carole (sp?), an older, blonde-haired, Caucasian woman with extremely poor manners -- rushed in and, out-of-the-blue, started yelling at my wife and me for unknown reasons. Since the main event we had waited for all evening started, we tried to watch the fight and ignore her obnoxious behavior, as she attempted to shoehorn latecomers into our small table space. The entire ordeal was very embarrassing for us, the late-arriving patrons, and the rest of the surrounding customers who had their viewing pleasure interrupted by this loud, disruptive display of rude, brutish and unprofessional behavior.Later, we discovered from our horrified waitress (who provided excellent, attentive service all evening, and was generously tipped), who witnessed the unpleasantries, that the obnoxious staff person was -- the facility manager, herself! It is absurd and incomprehensible that such an uncouth, ill-mannered person lacking discretion, tact, training and professionalism is permitted to act in that executive capacity at a Tulalip Casino Resort property.Not surprisingly, the Canoes Cabaret manager, Carol/Carole, has had a number of complaints lodged against her for her trailer trash behavior... What is surprising, though, is that Tulalip Casino Resort fails to properly train and discipline such deficient managerial staff that reflect so poorly on its once-stellar reputation for excellence.

The Cabaret use to be the place to be, however, after a horrible and disappointing experience this weekend I can see why there was so much seating; nobody want's to be there. This weekends manager Thomas, is incompetent, unable to make simple observations and clearly enjoys using his "power" to accuse and threaten women. The waitstaff - most likely overworked, was flat out rude. Overall, reading other reviews the management seems to really be a problem. Save your time and spend your money elsewhere.

Will not even consider going back to this place until they lift there absolutely ridiculous mask policy. WEAR YOUR MASK AT ALL TIMES EVEN WHILE SITTING AT THE TABLE !! The ONLY exception is if you are actually taking a drink or taking a bite of food but then you have to put it back on ??? seriously ??? and they have CONSTANT mask patrol hitting people up that are sitting at their tables. TOTALLY ridiculous !! Won't even consider going back until this ridiculous rule is gone. Also you would think with all business suffering from a drop in sales they would have told their people to treat customers like they are actually customers but their management and door people STILL suck. This has not changed since pre-covid. The waitresses are generally good, friendly and generally attentive but the door people and management are 97% of the time rude and have the people skills of a rock. Before you even enter this place you have a bad taste in your mouth and it takes half the show to get rid of it. With the absurd mask rule the bad taste never got close to going away. Again, absolutely zero consideration of going back until that policy is gone.
