The Tropical Grill

This little place was amazing! We ordered the Jamaican jerk chicken and the Cuban steak sandwich. Both were delicious but, make sure you let them know how to cook the steak (Cuban steak sandwich) my husbands was a little redder than he’d like. We really didn’t think to mention it, as we have never seen one not fully cooked. Either way, the taste was on point.

First time here after a long hike. Amazing food. Lovely owners. 10/10.

The place is quaint and small. Indoor seating is limited. Unfortunately, due to limited staff you cannot sit outside. They were super busy and short staffed the night we went so it took forever to get our orders placed. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The complimentary chips and salsa are great and came out with our appetizers. There is only one cook so the food also takes a while to get to your table. Patience is rewarded because the food is absolutely delicious. Be prepared to wait, but also plan on a great experience. Try the limeade and sweet plantains. You won’t regret it.

I never would have guessed some of the best fish tacos I’d ever eat would be in the WNC mountains, but here we are! Awesome food, cute little place with a very friendly staff. Next time I’m in town, I know exactly where I’m going!

I'm always looking for a good Cuban Sandwich and found one here. The salsa served with the chips was awesome. If you come, you must try that. We purchased some to-go as well. The side Bean salad was delicious and that's not something I would typically order. Service was excellent; the chef is available for questions. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying something else. I was also digging the background music. Can't go wrong with Toby Mac!
