The very friendly staff helped me out with a delicious meal for dinner, despite being in the process of closing for the night. Everyone was super kind and obliging. On the recommendation of staff, I had arepas for the first time & they really hit the spot! ¡Mucho gracias, team Tropicale!

The vibe is good and staff is really pleasant. Me and my friend got some pork and steak tacos and some chips with salsa and guac. I also got a beautiful pina colada. The drink was very good, nice presentation but eh food was pretty mid. The homemade chips were good and the salsas had nice flavors but no heat and the tacos were nice and full but pretty boring flavor. The guac was ok but lacked flavor too. I'd go back for drinks but you can find more delicious tacos for a bit less at most taco trucks.

My favorite mezcal bar in town rn! Love the atmosphere & the Oaxaca inspired menu. We got the plantains, ceviche & pozole. All of the cocktails are delicious! Cozy with two outdoor fires & covered seating. Will be back many times 🍍🍍

Incredibly delicious. I got one steak taco, one shrimp, and the fried cod. All sooooo good. The sauce they serve with it makes it so much better. Get a Pina colada in the pineapple trust me! Great covered patio seating area. I will most definitely be a regular customer. Staff are kind and friendly too 😊

Pretty incredible food and drinks in a counter order setting with lovely shared outdoor space for the rare good weather of Portland.

Always just the best! Heated patio, amazing beautiful drinks that help you catch that summer vibe all year, even in the rain! The food has never been anything short of amazing-it’s a regular in our rotation! Love the staff, the vibe and will always keep coming back!
Just a chill neighborhood spot to get out of the rain and relax for a spell

These guys know what they are good at and they do it. House fried chips are amazing. The pina salsa is so good you can drink it. The pozole is my fav fall transition treat. Everything is consistently great.
Order inside at the cute bar and dine outside which has really improved over time. More comfortable and warmer in colder weather. The food is always perfect and the cocktails are quite good! I’ve been several times and tonight, Nov 2024 we were able to order food they brought to the table inside at the sweet bar next door. A great combo.

Food was amazing. I didn't get the name of the man behind the bar; a true spirit of hospitality.

Great place to eat. Love the Hispanic roots and diversity of ingredients. Proteins was juicy and tender. Outdoor seating is nice and covered. Staff was friendly and self serve water station is always a plus.

Delicious, fresh and great quality food and reasonable prices. I had the Tropicale salad with added steak pieces and it was amazing! I’m not gluten sensitive, but lots of options for those who are. Highly recommend and will definitely go back to try the other stuff. Thank you 😋

The pinacoladas are creative in appearance, but are watery and not traditional. The tacos were very disappointing. Overloaded with overly salted pork. Asked for shredded melted cheese and couldn’t notice in a bite. I don’t recommend. The flavor was definitely off. Not a traditional Taco. I don’t recommend.
