We decided not to walk around the farm walkway path in order to avoid mosquitoes bites. Everyone in my family tried to stay in the shade because it was hot and very humid. It was impressive that there is large fish pond outside with big fishes. The owner was very busy. She was by herself to do multiple tasks at same times such as selling tropical fruits and sugar cane juice to customers. The restroom was cleaner than I was expected. I will not come back, because I can get tropical fruits at local markets in for the same price.

We decided to make a trip to St. James City originally to visit La Vang( terribly disappointed with that place) . We came across Hot Tropic by accident and it was such a pleasant surprise. The couple are so incredibly sweet and friendly. Fruits are priced fairly, showcased beautifully, and tastes very fresh. I don't think you can pick your own fruits in the garden but the fruits are out in the open for you to choose from. Fresh coconuts are stored in the fridge and are HUGE. The coconut meat is so creamy and firm. They offer sugarcane juice, meat turnovers, pickled mangos, lychees, guavas, mangos, and more! Co Bach was so so kind and honest with what she sells. She was very willing to help me with the coconut. Even though their fruit farm is smaller than La Vang down the street, I will be bringing my business back here any day!

Save your money and avoid this place. This was one of the worst dining experiences we've ever had!…read more The restaurant was filthy. Flies were everywhere, and once our food arrived, they kept landing all over our meals. It was disgusting and completely unsanitary. The service was painfully slow and disorganized, yet we were automatically charged a $48 service fee for service that was practically nonexistent. The food was terrible. The dishes lacked flavor, and the fruit was just as disappointing. Some of the pre-picked fruit we bought were rotten inside, while others were bland and tasteless. The fruit-picking area was much smaller than advertised, and many of the fruits weren't even ripe enough to pick. To top it off, the bathrooms were falling apart and poorly maintained. Between the filthy conditions, horrible food, poor service, and outrageous mandatory service charge, this place was a complete waste of time and money. I would never return and would strongly warn others not to make the same mistake we did.

We told the lady we want 3 cups but saw that some sugar cane was already squeezed and sitting there murky. It was old and they tried to sell us old sugarcane.. we ended up getting 2 cups and it was gross. I am never the one to check the menu prices when I go out to eat and I wish I asked because we ordered 2 dishes here that WERE $60 EACH. The portions were ridiculous and we were basically eating in an outhouse with freaking paper plates and plastic utensils that they didn't even provide us with properly. We were a table of 7 and they gave us 4!!! We had to keep asking and ended up sharing plates or get our own. The food wasn't even that good and they charged gratuity for non-existent service. They didn't even have a sign or menu that mentioned adding automatic gratuity. We were going to tip regardless but this is absurd with all the hidden fees. We bought coconut, mangos, custard apple and they were all old or rotten when we went home to eat it. The only thing good was the mango. The custard apple was overpriced and $60 for 5!!! The guy working there told me that it was 10lbs. How is 5 fruits 10lbs?! We drove 2.5 hours from Tampa to come here and it was a waste of time.

This used to be our favorite place to come pick delicious tomatoes. The previous owner grew one variety and one variety only That they staggered planting so you could pick beautiful size tomatoes from December well into April. They lost their lease and Farmer mikes. You pick took it over and seems to grow more flowers than vegetables. We went there twice last year and we're not able to get strawberries on either occasion And the tomatoes we were able to pick were mediocre at best. So if you're looking for a place to consistently pick tomatoes I don't think this is your best option, but I will say the strawberries I picked were quite good. They also have lots of things for kids with a bouncy station, etc.. They also grow a plentiful supply of beautiful sunflowers so if you're looking for fresh flowers, I think you will be very happy.

Parking wasn't bad and if you're looking for a souvenir from Florida then this is the place to go and you can definitely spot where you are by driving down the road and seeing a big metal orange. This place is full of souvenirs to potentially bring back: spices salt, and pepper, shakers, alligator jerky, Florida, popcorn, coconut candies,etc. I love that you can have samples of the juices before buying. They even had some salsa and chip samples. They are shown to have a coupon in the touristy maps and guides. One where you can use to actually get a discount on your ice cream. I ordered the dreamsicle which is the most popular, but I didn't have a chance to look at the sizes and after ordering realized that the lady, I just put me in for the regular size which was too much sugar for me. If it does, though she was kind of rushing me which I didn't love. Also, if you're wanting to use the coupon, you have to have your own copy and cut it out/rip it out. And it's also one per order. I also ordered the Keylime pie. I like the filling. It had a very much coconut flavor probably because they use more coconut milk, but their crust on it was not very good. The cream score was actually pretty good. It was a hot day so it melted pretty quickly, but I liked the orange thing that it had and balanced with the vanilla.
