I have been to Tropikal twice. The first time I sat at the bar. The service was a bit slow and the drinks were not too special. However, the food was great. The second time I went was because they had a special on appetizers. I had a few appetizers and some drinks. Again, the service was slow. When you go to Tropikal, relax and enjoy the food, drinks, and company. I plan to go there again. read more

First things first: make a reservation! Visiting from USA-FL and if you ever been to Miami this place has the vibes. Great food, custom drink cocktails, quality service. The hostess of the night was Ariel bubbly personality was able to get my party seated provided recommendations. I had such a great experience. IG:Deejaymadmaxx was turning it up with afrobeats, kompa, Miami music and more. I felt right at home. Food tried was the island wings and salt fish fritters. read more

I liked my food and the ambiance. They played great music. I sat at the bar, and I was over charged for my drinks. I asked for a lemon drop with don julio and I was charged for double shots which made each lemon drop $28! The bartender knew what he was doing my overcharging me for the my 3 drinks. Other than feeling like the bartender scammed me, I would recommend coming here if you're from the states to feel a good Carribean vibe but beware of your check before giving them your card. read more

I recently attended a media event at Tropikal Restobar to try their new winter menu. As you can see from the photos, every dish not only looked appetizing, it was delicious! If you're ever in the mood for Carribean inspired food and flavours, check out Tropikal! It's also only a 4 min walk away from Lionel Groulx metro if you don't want to drive! The vibe of the restobar is super cool and modern and they have an awesome bar serving really yummy drinks! I tried both their mango & pineapple and the strawberry moscow mules and they were both so refreshing and tasty! The owner and staff of the resto were also super welcoming and informative about not only the ingredients of what is in the food, but also the story and inspiration behind it! read more

I went here for an event for Sunday brunch. I paid 20$ and with that I had free mimosas I'm not quite sure if the brunch menu was a regular lunch menu they usually have. But we ordered a few different plates to share, We got the Ackee and saltfish with fried bakes, brioche french toast with fried jerk chicken and deep fried plantain stuffed with jamaican calaloo and Ackee. Everything was really good, but my favorite was the plantain dish We received our food pretty fast The place is very nice, and the waitress was very kind and checked up on us a few times. The mimosas were abit water/juiced down you couldn't really taste the champagne. They were playing reggae/ soul music which was nice. I would like to come here during night time also to see how it is, and also it looks like the menu is different at night time. This place looks good for small and big groups. I would come back read more

It's Saturday night; two of my friends are in town from Toronto. I wanted a fun and vibrant place, and Tropikal popped in my head. I love this place. Thankfully, we made reservations in advance, because this place was hopping. The service was excellent, our waitress was very attentive. We started with our cocktails, and I asked for a Remy cocktail which has coffee as a part of the ingredients. It was a long day, and that shot of caffeine was really appreciated and the drink was an absolute marvel. Then my boyfriend and I shared the appetizer of plantains with aioli sauce. It was really "wow ", then for our main dish we had the goat curry with beans and rice and a piece of roti. It was delicious; I wish the spice level was slightly elevated. The experience of this place is always a joy, and I am really glad my friends had a great time. read more

Food was amazing! The best poutine ever- with jerk chicken. The oxtail was also incredible.

I am very surprised to see this place has anywhere lower than a 4-4.5. Why? It has some of the best Caribbean food I have ever had. I won't say I am any kind of Caribbean food expert, but I just wanna relay that I think their food is incredible. I went with some friends, had some appetizers, some mains, and some drinks, and I absolutely loved everything I had. I shared their jerk chicken and po boy sandwich, and wow! If you are looking for an upscale bar with amazing food, definitely check this place out! read more

We went out for date night, dining and cocktails. It wasn't the first time. I personally love it for the well mannered staff throughout, our barkeep/entertainer Kodjo delivered in all the ways that matters; from his flare to his warm presence, he made sure we were embracing the full experience .. we left completely fulfilled. He even kept 'em coming, with perfect timing the food always so amazing!! No matter what you eat, your eyes will roll back! I most definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys a flavourful meal, in a place that delivers plenty on ambiance, beautiful staff always smiling, there is even a room for your parties (book by phone or online/reserve) and you know Chef Jae Anthony is incomparable when it comes to taste Tropikal is an amazing supper club that I CANNOT wait to go back to! read more

Good food and ambiance(music is a bit too loud at times ), the cocktails are expensive imo but the menu is very different from most Caribbean restaurants and the presentation is on point. read more

I am visiting for the states and this place doesn't disappoint. I enjoyed the Rasta Pasta, oxtail tacos, and fries. Everything was amazing. We met the chef, got great recommendations from the bar tender, and they celebrated my birthday with me. The ambience is great; with great decor. Highly recommend. Everything was so good! 10/10! It is also all-black owned!!! read more

I was excited when I found out Chef Jae Anthony opened a new restaurant in Montreal! I used to regularly order from Seasoned Dreams back in the day, and have also visited his restaurant Tingz in Ottawa, so I am pretty familiar with Anthony's signature Caribbean fusion cuisine. We ordered takeout via the restaurant's website which was an overall seamless experience. To sample a variety of things on the menu, we got: a fried chicken sandwich, oxtail mac n cheese, a plate of jerk chicken and the plantain bread pudding. My favourite was the mac n cheese: creamy and rich - like an upgraded version of what I used to get from Seasoned Dreams. The jerk chicken came with a hearty portion of rice n peas and was super tasty; next time I'll be sure to ask for extra gravy though. The chicken sandwich was nothing stellar, and it it had clearly been fried in the same oil as some fish, hence why this review is getting 4 stars instead of 5. To finish it off, the plantain bread pudding was such a unique sweet and savoury dessert - definitely a great addition to the menu! Overall a lovely modern Caribbean culinary experience, consistent with Chef Jae Anthony's signature style. I will definitely be back, and looking forward to trying the doubles! read more

Tropikàl Restobar - Fried chicken sandwich, oxtail mac n cheese, jerk chicken plate, and coleslaw. (Beverages not included) - Caribbean Near Me - Montreal, Quebec

Food was good. However, we had a reservation for 6 people for a birthday party. We got there on time, still waited half an hr before being seated. Once at our table, everything from the Chef's special menu was unavailable. Not once did the owner who seemed to b checking at some of the other patrons came to our table to apologize for the scarcity of food. Music was good though read more
