Golden's Tropical World

Best pet store in Chicago! I've been going there for 35 years. Healthier fish than any other store in this city! Tony is alright! Everyone has a bad day sometimes! And he has been working on his feet for 8 hours! Hey lady have some compassion for him, imagine if you worked on your feet for 8 hours and he came to your job and stopped you from going home at the assigned time? How would you treat him? Next time go earlier. I think Tony's last job was a bouncer in a lounge. Lol.just kidding. I love goldens pet store and everyone in it. Tony is a hard worker, he is very helpful to Mr Golden. And he is loyal to Mr Golden. That's what matters the most! If you want healthy fish; then go to Golden's. if you don't then go somewhere else!

I was just there today and when I walked up to the store I seen Mr Golden outside. So when I finally got there tony comes wheeling out the stand that goes with the 55 g. Tank that tony had already put in the back seat of a small car. Getting a 55 tank and stand and all the accessories in a small car is a job all in itself but tony figured it out! He bounced it right in the car and the customer drove away happy.

I’ve been going to Golden’s since I was a kid. It’s one of my favorite fish stores but the new guy I believe his name is Tony is not friendly at all. I went in yesterday at 6:30, they don’t close until 7 and as I walked through the door he stated they were closing in 5 mins. I was shopping for a Betta tank. The young lady was going to look in the back and before she could look he told her there were none and we have 2 mins. He was so rude that I decided to take my business else where. I’ve also seen him being rude to the older lady that has been working there for years. His customer service and demeanor sucks! I spend a ton of money here but if this is what I have to deal with I’ll be spending my money with Brandon at Aqua Oasis on 87th and east end from now on. Highly disappointed and dissatisfaction with my last visit.

The what appears 2 b " family owned business " is drenched with love and caring from the matriarch herself and trickles down onto each and every customer like Niagara Falls in prime season. She along with a family staff bring good service with a smile, 2 answer your every pet questions and so forth. U guys r awesome. And thank u 4 serving our community with pride and professionalism....!!!

Excellent service. I used to go here in the 90's when I was breeding fish. Had to purchase something last week and it was good to see Golden's still in business.

I love them so much!!! I have been coming to them since 2016 and it has a familial feel to it. They have new staff but they are also nice and the owners a husband and wife team are always so sweet and helpful

Family owned. Great service mostly pond and aquarium supplies. Plenty of feeder fish. Koi reasonably price and healthy not like pets smart koi. Free parking in front. Very helpful on advice for new fish enthusiast.

LOVE this place! Black owned family business. They are so helpful and knowledgeable about all things fish. They are also very caring and compassionate about taking care of the fish. We bought our tank here and they answer questions over the phone and are so helpful in the store that we keep going back. Today I went in to buy some food and asked them the best way to clean the tank. The guy helping me went and grabbed equipment and provided a full demonstration!

Golden tropical has been around for a long time they are an awesome pet shop that carry most the people are friendly and we should support them and keep them going strong.

Very friendly always buy from them one of my favorite fish store
