About Tropics Bar & Grill

Tropics Bar & Grill offers generous, plentiful dishes with a beautiful sea view. The restaurant has a stunning beach view that instantly elevates the atmosphere. They have a clever setup—a stringed net enclosure over the outdoor seating area—to keep birds away, which was a thoughtful touch that added to the comfort of the experience.

The breakfast and dinner options are quite good, and the service has improved over the last year, with attentive and pleasant wait staff. The beef short ribs are recommended, and the highlight of the meal is the garlic shrimp, which is absolutely amazing, perfectly cooked, and flavorful. The popped corn shrimp is also fantastic, almost as good as the garlic shrimp.

Despite the good food at reasonable prices, the presence of birds inside the restaurant can be off-putting. The restaurant also offers a salad with chicken, which is great, and cold beers. However, the seafood soup or bowl was a disappointment, lacking both flavor and appeal.

Overall, Tropics Bar & Grill is a great spot for its atmosphere and standout dishes like the garlic shrimp and popped corn shrimp, but the issue of birds flying around and making the seating area unhygienic needs to be addressed.
