Tropicana is an amazing hidden gem for authentic Cuban food! I have been to Cuba! A big shout out to Sandra and Kmy for amazing service and hospitality! Everything i have ever had on the meni is such quality, yummy food! I HIGHLY recommend!
March 2025
Service was attentive, friendly and welcoming. The mojito maracuya was refreshing and strong. The lechon asado and cubano were flavorful. With good amount of meat. The fried red snapper was lightly fried and loved that it was not too greasy or heavy. The patecones and congri were great sides to the main dishes.
