I wasn't craving baos so I ordered a noodle soup but it wasn't to my liking. I feel like this place is more known for their baos so I should have ordered those. I got to try a phew bites of the Taiwanese classic and Chinese bbq Baos because someone else in my party ordered them and those tasted WAY better.

Review Template ===…read more1. VERDICT/VALUE With a menu from across a variety of Asian cultures, Tropical Island tries to everything to everyone and at least for this one takeout experience, it does - falling short only on portion size. === 2. FOOD Our order was takeout and so the portion sizes were small (see photos for scale of the smaller tin pans with chopsticks); however, the quality of the food was decent overall! Chicken Satay ($13) Four skewers come at this price with some sort of mild-ish spicy oil-based peanut sauce on the side. The chicken is relatively meaty and tender! Beef Vegetable Delight ($19) With lotus root, carrots, onions, celery, and broccoli on tap with thin slices of beef, this is a dish you'll enjoy with rice or another starch. Green Beans ($19) One of the recommended house dishes by the server; it was decent - no minced pork like that found in Chinese restaurants, but it does have red and green peppers and onions. === 3. SERVICE The server at the counter was good and professional, balancing myself, app-order delivery drivers, and dine-in guests. The staff here seemed to speak English and Manadarin. The food was prepared fairly quickly, tho this may be due to having only 4 tables of dine-in guests at the time of order. === 4. ENVIRONMENT It's not a looker - it starts with narrow hallway with two small bench-type seats for those waiting at the counter, before opening into an older seating area. Wheelchairs and baby strollers should fit well enough once you get through the hallway. Parking is interesting - a few spots are located out front (watch out for one with a small Do Not Park sign on the wall) and there are a few more spots across the alleyway.

This restaurant serves Chinese Indian Food. It was pretty good. We got the Fish Pakora, Chicken Manchurian style Chow Mein, House Style Lamb and Naan Roti. The House Style lamb was the biggest disappointment. It was quite salty and kind of gamy. The Naan Roti wasn't good either. I really liked the Fish Pakora, it was super tasty. The chow mein was good as well. The flavor was unique and very tasty. The restaurant is located in a strip mall where there are plenty of parking. Prices are quite reasonable.
