Best flavors I've had at a Thai restaurant. The waitress was so wonderful and kind. The drink I ordered was great. Very clean inside and nice. The food itself was wonderful! I was so happy the whole time. I will come back. Portions were generous as well.
Overnight visit to Tulsa and we wanted some good Thai......well we found it! Large dining room with friendly staff. Green curry and garlic stir fry were both delicious with large portions. Will be back soon😋😋

Because it's a little outside my typical Tulsa stomping grounds, The Tropical tends to fall out of the rotation and I often forget how good it truly is. From the outside the place looks unassuming, but inside you'll find a beautiful, expansive, fully stocked bar, clean and spacious dining rooms, and a knowledgeable, attentive serving staff. There are a wide variety of menu options from traditional Thai food and house specialties to pricier 'off the grill items." The Tropical offers a lunch special that runs from 11:00 to 3:00 where most entrees do not exceed $14.
They were out of Chang Beer (Thai) so we ordered Mai Tais that were generously poured with a nice balance of fruity and nutty flavors. Whether it's your first time in or you're a regular customer, the Lettuce Wraps are spectacular and portioned as a good appetizer for four. These appear to be a house favorite.
We selected the Kaprao and the Nam-Prik Pao Fried Rice as our entrees and were highly satisified with both; although, the Nam-Prik Pao Fried Rice (which we got with stir fried pork) was definitely the highlight. The tangy ginger sauce which coated the fried rice paired well with the savory pork and the tartness of the julienned apples. Will DEFINITELY get this dish again.
The overhead lighting made it difficult to get good photos w/o shadows and I neglected to get a photo of the lettuce wraps. Dishes came out piping hot and looked great - but photos wouldn't have done the food justice, anyway.
First time trying this place and was surprised that they had coquito on the menu. I was curious to try it, but they were out. We ordered 2 dishes one dish with a spice level of 1 and the other dish with spice level of 2. To me neither dish was spicey and I usually top out at spice level of 2 or 3 depending on a locations spicey factor. The food had good flavor and tasted fine. You do get ALOT of rice noodles on your dish. The only draw back for me was my dining partner recieved their dish 5 minutes before I did. I realize restaurants are struggling to have full staff and I dont mind waiting. I had been trained that a table is served together or within 1/2 minute window of each other. Life happens and there are instances where that doesn't happen and then it's communicated to the customer. In this instance, I would have liked communication. Otherwise, Tropical was a decent restaurant.
We finally got to go! The absolute best. Got the lettuce wraps 🙌🏻 finally a vegetarian option and it was so good. We love Tom kha soup - spicy and theirs is definitely our new favorite. We get it with tofu instead of chicken. Can’t wait until we go back. We got an order to go but it didn’t last us long ;)
Though they can be a little slow with short staff, we have been eating at ( and enjoying) Tropical for over 10 years! They have amazingly kind staff and the atmosphere is like none other. The food is a Thai/American fusion and you won't regret eating there.
This is Tulsa’s go-to place for fresh Thai food. Flavors are impeccable and the atmosphere is great. It will always be one of my favorites.
I went in to grab a quick lunch while waiting on my car at the Acura dealership friendly staff and great food! I will be returning when I need my next service done on my vehicle for lunch!
I've only ordered take out here. I got the pad Thai and was a little disappointed that the container for it looked small, it ended up being 2 servings for me and was very delicious! The building is kind of tucked away and was a little hard for me to find, but it was a very cute and charming establishment.
This place is fantastic. Good atmosphere for a date night. They have all the nice little touches. Place is super clean, nice menus, food is fantastic service is subtle but on point, lots of seating, it’s very quiet and peaceful inside. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for somewhere to go. The outside is deceiving.
