Ordered a $55'Oxtail to Share' expecting it to be suitable for two people, but it turned out to be a portion barely enough for one - & even then, on the small side. We also ordered a mac & cheese, which was delicious, but again surprisingly small for the price. While the food itself was good, the portion sizes felt disappointing given the cost & descriptions on the menu.
Only recommended if you want to pay $50 to taste something good but still feel hungry afterwards!View more

EXCELLENT! Friday night, the music was a vibe, the spicy pineapple margarita was delicious. We ordered the jerk calamari... omg... the best calamari we ever had... with pikliz!!!! & the side jerk sauce with a little sweetness!!!!! YYUUUMMMMYYYYY!!!! Honestly that sauce should be bottled & sold everywhere because I would use it with everything. We also ordred the jerk poutine & the oxtail mac & cheese. It was just so tasty & perfect. I love how they mix all the Carribean superstar foods together in flavorbomb balanced heavenly bites. The staff was kind, knowledgable, from the hostess to the busboy. The waitress was attentive. It looked like they all worked well as a team (even with a short staff due to some being under the weather that day & not able to show up to work). I've been there before & tried different apps & entres: mushrooms, plaintain, chicken wings, tacos.... everything was tasty. I dont go there for typical traditional dishes but I'm sure those are great too. I love the creativity. BOTTLE UP THAT SAUCE, CHEF!View more

Where do I even start! My friends & I travelled from NJ to celebrate my birthday. Ariel & Jessica worked their magic to ensure we had a great experience from start to finish! Ariel & Jessica were warm, inviting, & provided exceptional service. The DJ was absolutely amazing, his Kompa set was fire! The food was a 10/10. I tasted the jerk chicken, oxtail Mac & cheese, jerk wings, & my expectations were met! The drinks were fabulous! From the bottom of my heart I want to thank Ariel, Jessica, the DJ, & the kitchen staff for making my birthday a memorable experience! I would highly recommend TROPIKAL!View more

Amazing food! Service outstanding. Jessica is friendly & professional. All fresh ingredients. Jerk wings were great, mild or spicy mango. Jerk chicken, Shrimp were outstanding, big kick. Rice & peas great. Fries great. Special request, red snapper phenomenal. I am gluten free, so I couldn't enjoy the Mac n cheese, but the rest of the group said it was good. For a group of Black people from the South, it is high praise. People were not fans of the rum cake. Thank you for accommodating our large group. The chef was a pleasure to help develop the prefix menu. Need bigger water glasses because the spice will get you!View more

C'est mon nouveau restaurant préféré, tout est impeccable. La musique est bonne & le service est chaleureux. & que dire de la cuisine, j'ai pris les calamars, les creuvettes, mac & cheese, chevre cabri & le griot & tout était excellent. Mon coup de coeur est le griot, c'est le meilleur que j'ai mangé ever. Je recommande fortement.View more

Magnifique accueille bon service jamais en manque de rafraîchissement j'ai peu goûter au poulet jerk & au cheese & oxtail très délicieux bien épicé comme on n'aime dans nos pays chaud des CaraïbesView more

Service was attentive & our server was so sweet! Mac n cheese does gran proud indeed.. jerk tacos were fun & filled to the brim but goat curry was a miss - overcooked & bit too bland we were floored they had no hot sauce except tabasco to offer us for a carribean spot! Impressed by what looked like a young team in the kitchen covering a WednesdayView more

J'ai adorer à la nourriture moi & mon amie avons pris le Mac & cheese & setais super, la calmar au épicé jamaicaine étais aussi suculante je recommande grandementView more

The ambience & service is spot on. You want to stay, & groove to their (fire) sound track. The main dishes (griot) & sides (mac n cheese) were delicious, mouth watering & uniquely seasoned. These are your favourite dishes levelled up. Where this place lost a point was with their cocktails (especially their signature punch) which was overwrought with bitters. Will we return? Absolutely, it's well worth visiting again.View more

The food is Great (Jerk Chicken Mac&Cheese was perfect the plantain sweet as always ) the drinks too ! I really enjoyed my experience. It’s a nice spot to go on a date or by yourself.
Thanks KodjoView more

C'était très bon. Je recommande définitivement le mac & cheese aux crevettes & le mocktail aux ananas! Le service par Kodjo était tout aussi remarquable! 😁View more

It was a not fully packed Friday night, my friends & I ordered our drink which are exquisite.
The Jerk Chicken Mac & Cheese was delicious. The place looked in fact tropical. The service was on point.
The only reason why it’s not a five star is that we waited almost an hour for the food. Even when the food arrived it didn’t arrive at same time. There was a huge time lapse between some of us. The part I couldn’t understand is how my fries only arrived when everyone finished the meal.View more

I went there with my husband last night & we had a fantastic experience. We sat at the bar & we tried different cocktails. You can literally pick any cocktail from the menu & you will be wonderfully surprised with the unique tastes. Our favorites were Éwé, Fré & the rum punch.
The food is out of this world. We tried the coconut shrimps, which was a bit spicy, but nonetheless delicious. Then We tried the fish with the rice & we ended with the cheese dip. The bar stuff were so attentive & truly made our experience unforgettable. All in all it was wonderful. We will definitely go back. Recommend 10/10
via LibroTasty Caribbean food & drinks, good vibes & amazing service! (That Jerk chicken Mac & cheese!!) I highly highly recommend this place for THE ultimate island vibe experience!
via LibroLa quantité vs le prix des entrées est un peu disproportionné selon nous. Aussi, le Mac & Cheese était bien, mais manquait un peu de fromage & un peu trop granuleux selon mon amie. Néanmoins, le rasta pasra était super bon! Le mélange d'épices était savoureux. Avec le jerk chicken c'est encore mieux! Le service était un des meilleurs service que j'ai eu depuis fort longtemps! 👏🏾
via LibroTropikal was one of the best places we tried in Montreal ! We loved the ambiance the drinks were good ..could be a little stronger but we recommend you get the strawberry mojito it really was a breeze of fresh air with a hint of get me ready for the after party (hip/hop /Afro beats )which are on fridays & Saturdays we went on a Saturday now let's get to the food the star of the show was the Rasta pasta , the jerk chicken & the guava wings are a must the jerk was seasoned to a T , the Rasta pasta was a mix up of Haitian , Trinidadian & African flavors all mixed into one you can add meat of your choosing for extra we got the lobster but it's also stands on its own the Mac & cheese was good if you like a milder cheesy pasta dish & don't sleep on the cheesy callalloo dip w/ the plantain chips ! The chef was really cool he touched on his inspirations for the dishes as well as the fact he changes the menu every 6 months which we will be back to check it out for the next menu! It is definitely a vibe our server Danielle is the best & was filled w/ recommendations 2 things 1. get there on Time 2 hr seating only & 2.have the best time !
via LibroMac & cheese was amazing, wings was good but a little dry, plantains perfect & it came with a sauce, I can't remember the name but it was good. For my drink, I got the Tropikal passion, I'm not a drinker so it was a little strong. My friend got the Bon bagay drink that was very good. Staff was amazing.
via LibroLe griot goûtait le gingembre. Riz goûtait bizarre. Toutefois l'entrée de Mac & cheese au jerk chicken un vrai délice. Le 3 étoiles sont vraiment pour la pression intense du personnel afin qu'on quitte la table malgré qu'il reste 40 min a la réservation. ... toutefois le service des serveurs est était impeccable (ne sont pas celles qui ont mis la pression...)
via LibroWow, belle ambiance & un délice pour les papilles. Je recommande de commander plusieurs choses & de partager pour goûter à plusieurs plats. Je recommande le mac&cheese, les croquettes de morue, les ailes de poulet jerk & la trempette au calalou (WoW que c'est délicieux). Les cocktails tropikal passion & bon bacay sont très bons. La seule chose, j'avais réservé & nous avons la table pour deux heures seulement, j'aurais souhaité plus longtemps pour profiter de l'ambiance !
via LibroFood was great. The service was good & everyone working really floor made sure every time they passes by to make sure the guests were good. I just would've liked for the menu to have a bit more description to the items. One of the guest I was with doesn't eat cheese & he didn't know the tacos had it. So a lil more description to the menu would've been helpful.
via LibroOverall the ambience was great however the size portion has changed the mac & cheese jerk chicken used to be a lot bigger now it is way too small this also applies for the poutine. As for the chef special for example the half plate jerk chicken size portion way too small needs more rice needs more chicken especially for the price that we're paying. As for the drinks Dark & Stormy there needs to be more consistency the first drink was perfect the second drink was water down not strong enough.
via LibroEverything was amazing! The service was excellent, food is top-tier (some of my faves: jerk chicken, mac n cheese, oxtail tacos) & the drinks are delicious. Nice vibe & music too. Highly recommend for birthday parties, date nights or girls night out. 10 on 10.
via LibroIn general, we had a good experience. They have very good cocktails but a bit on the expensive side for the quantity. The best drink, in my opinion, is Rosa Parks. Unfortunately, we were a bit disappointed because the menu on the website was not the same in the restaurant. People in my party came far for the menu on the website. The mac & cheese, the poutine & the plantain cups were really delicious & remind us of the Caribbean. The oxtail tacos, the fried lobster tail & shrimps lack a lot of flavours. They did not have their usual churros dessert made with plantain so we took the traditional churros which were very salty & drenched in sugar. The service could be more effective. One of the servers came & ask us what we were waiting for, we told him the churros. He said he will be back. He passed 2-3 time our table without given us an answer.
