The place is packed! That's why I waited! Staff was great and the food wonderful. Had lunch and then went back to grab a sandwich to take to the airport.
Kein Schikimiki Restaurant, dafür aber nette Bedienungen, sehr gutes Essen und Preiswert !!! Top !! THX .
Delicious food, big portions and not expensive. Not cheap as is stated elsewhere here but not expensive. Had snapper and shrimp in a garlic cream sauce and it was to die for. The yellow rice and fried plantains on the side were also delicious. Very informal surroundings with very quick service.
Any place full of cops is most certainly 2 things. CHEAP AND GOOD! This place fits the bill on both accounts.
Amazing Cuban food and very reasonably priced for Miami Beach. The snapper is delicious and very fresh. ( a little over ten bucks with two sides). Shrimp in garlic sauce was as good.... But a little more pricey.
Authentic Cuban sandwich for 6 bucks.
We also tried Cuban pastries ( kids went back for seconds.
Family of 4 (two adults, kids 8 and 7 ate a lot more than we should have for a little more than $50.00.
Great food and service!!!
Amazing Cuban food and don't forget your appetite as the portions are huge! Lechon pork, yellow rice and plantains are a must! Service was pretty good too for as busy as the place stayed. Worth the walk from your hotel for a great Cuban meal.
Great Cuban Food. A group of friends and I were staying at a hotel a few blocks away and wanted something to eat at a decent price. Urbanspoon came through again!
We walked in to a tiny, but full, restaurant and waited for about 5 minutes for a table to open up. All but one of us went with a sandwich option, while that lone person of the group went with the fish special. Everything was phenomenal. The Cuban sandwich was the best I've had (I can only compare it to several options I've had in Atlanta). I had a variation of it (can't remember the name) that included a breaded and fried pork cutlet... delicious! Even the fish special was excellent; it was very fresh and full of flavor, and it didn't have a "fishy" smell to it at all.
Overall, this place is a steal in the Miami area. Great quality food at very affordable prices. If I'm ever back in Miami, then I'll definitely be visiting Tropical Beach Cafe again.
Nice hole in the wall brunch or lunch excellent tamals at an un south beach price.
Great little hole in the wall. This place was a great find. Most bang for the buck in Miami Beach. I had the chorizo sandwich and was not let down. If you are in the area be sure to give it a try.
Sorry to find this cafe with only two days vacation remaining. Great food and coffee at a non south beach price !!
We were on vacation at a resort down the road from here. We tried all kinds of places but this by far way my ABSOLUTE favorite! 💯
I loved it so much I had to eat there twice and passed up other places!
The first night we tried it we made it in 10 minutes before they closed since it was such short notice we just took our food back to the resort so that they wouldn't have to stay longer.
The second time we tried it I wanted to make sure we got the full experience. We sat down had 2 waiters who were hands down amazing and made the experience worth it, very personable and joked around with us.
I think I was embarrassing my company because the food was so delicious I was making all sorts of noises while eating ha ha!
The younger gentleman was telling us how to cook some of the things, so I am for sure going to try my hand at the plantains! The older gentleman was making us laugh and was giggling at me for all my noises I was making.
The restaurant itself was smaller but made it feel more intimate and had a home feel to it. The prices were the best I found and again for the food worth every penny, just saying if they could overnight food to me OMG I would eat there probably every other day.
Thanks everyone at Tropical Beach hope to see you soon!
P.S. If you ever open other places PLEASE come to Miami, OK 🙂
Best food at mid beach so far.. much more tastier than at the tavern.. portion size were huge also.
It's a hole in a wall restaurant. A place where the locals come to eat. Get the fresh juice.
1 meal was enough for lunch and dinner.. was around 10-20 bucks per person per meal.
Not sure if I was scammed with the secret gratuity 15% extra.. pretty sure we were.. but food was so good.. I did tip extra.. another 20%. But wouldn't for next time, as I thought the tip wasn't included.
Ate breakfast here 5 days out of the 7 days we were in town. Great food. Affordable. Great service. Stop in if you are close-by.
Worth noting this is not just a breakfast place. They are open until 10pm. I have not tried any of their sandwiches, but they look good.
Loved the experience here. The waitresse messed up our order but plates are good and affordable. Will be back for breakfast
We tried a pork dish and a salad and the servings were huge…great value meals after trying upscale dishes elsewhere…some construction was going on, best to eat indoors…worth a try!..enjoy!!!….and uhhhmmm this review is for Tropical Beach Cafe….not to be confused with Tropicale Cafe in Editions Hotel
This place is incredible! The food is made fresh, and very very good!
Fantastic restaurant! We visited it twice during our stay in Midbeach. Generous portions and it was really good food. Restaurant is limited in seating, but definitely worth the wait.
