“Fabulous jerk chicken and oxtail. Thank you for a wonderful, fresh and savoury experience. We'll be back soon!“

“Delivered from this place for the first time and I hands down tasted the best jerk chicken meal in Toronto. The rice was perfectly seasoned and cooked, and the jerk was absolutely delicious.

Definitely so happy I stopped by today“

“The best Caribbean food I’ve found in Toronto and definitely the area. We love their jerk chicken (with rice and peas or the potatoes) and ox tail, especially the ox tail pasta. Incredible place, friendly people. I recommend ordering in advance to cut down on wait time.“

“yes, their portions are great. Jerk chicken poutine changed my life“

“Great family meal here. First time and it was so delicious. The ladies were so friendly.“

“Went there for weekday lunch. Had jerk chicken breast with 2 sides (coleslaw & veggies) and spicy mayonnaise + hot sauce. It was perfect, spicy enough while not overpowering the dish. 'oxed veggies are a bit tasteless'but ok when eaten with the rest.“

“If you haven’t been to Tropical yet, you’re missing out.
Nickisha runs this place with so much heart — the kind of energy that makes you feel like family the second you walk in. You can tell she loves what she does because every plate she serves has that home-cooked care behind it.
Now let’s talk about these fries. Loaded with grilled chicken, melted cheese, and fresh peppers — every bite is smoky, juicy, and ridiculously satisfying. The chicken is perfectly seasoned, the fries have that golden crisp, and the whole thing is drizzled in sauce that ties it together like a hug in food form.
She doesn’t just serve food — she serves comfort. Her kindness, her laughter, and her attention to detail make this spot a must-visit. Whether you’re grabbing takeout or sitting down for a quick meal, you’ll leave feeling full in more ways than one.
Tropical isn’t just a restaurant — it’s a vibe. Come hungry, come curious, and let Nickisha reminds you what good food and good energy really taste like. 🌶🍗🍟“

“I had the oxtail meal and it was delicious. It was a little on the sweet side, but the flavor was excellent and everything tasted fresh and well-made. The portions were generous, and I was definitely satisfied.

The lady working there was also very friendly and welcoming, I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“Your tummy will thank you!“

“This place is nostalgic for me. It has been a few years since I've been there because I moved away from the community. However, it was great to be back. The staff treated me like I was still part of the community. I even received a free patty. Thank you!“

“My favorite spot in Toronto“

“Food was incredible, parking can be tricky out front, I didnt try the parking behind the building, but who cares the food was so delicious. Had some crushed scotch bonnet on the side but it wasn't spicy...I think they were trying to protect me by giving me the young green ones, or maybe they mixed it with crushed green peppers? 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️ Food was amazing though, patties are also amazing, definitely going back!!!“

“Had jerk chicken. partner oxtail. both were just perfect. chicken soft and not dry, rice perfectly cooked. the oxtail seemed to melt in our mouths.
