    Jerk Chicken from Tropical Smokehouse.
    John H.

    I've been to their a Palm Beach location and I am a fan. I recently order take out from their new Delray location. Much closer for me. Cool new location with a chill vibe. The jerk chicken was amazing. I like spice however this was mild and all about the flavor. It's a much try. It was take out so now I am looking forward to revisiting and dining in.

    Came here Sunday night for a quick bite with my boyfriend at Tropical Barbecue, and overall had a great experience. I loved the variety of sauces they offer. He ordered the full rack of ribs and they did not disappoint -- the seasoning and flavor were absolutely on point. I really enjoyed the mac and cheese and the crinkle-cut cheese fries as well. The only downside was the brisket, which was extremely lean, dry, and lacked flavor. That said, I'd definitely recommend sticking with the ribs -- major Flintstones vibes (in the best way possible)!

    Everything I had at Tropical Smokehouse was fantastic! The pork spare ribs were tender, juicy, and tasty. The jerk chicken was amazing; the brisket was a bit dry but dipped in the sauces was great, the corn bread was slightly sweet, the mac & cheese was creamy. Next time, I have to try the pulled pork. It's not a large space, but there's a good-sized back yard. The outside of the restaurant stands out; red and white pattern.

    Ate at their original location in West Palm years ago and wanted to try their new location in Delray. A funky building painted red and white strips. Asked which was better, the hamburger or the brisket, told the brisket. So I ordered a brisket sandwich, chopped brisket that was a little chewy. I like where it melts in your mouth. The fries were good but lots of small bits and pieces. Unfortunately not running back.

    Wow, after a day of tennis at the DBO, I stopped here for dinner! I got it to go but boy was it delicious! They have 8 different sauces you can add to the sandwich, I tried the sweet bbq and the fire bbq both were fantastic! I also tried the Caribbean slaw and the fries both were very good too! Some bbq places I get indigestion from it, but not this place! It was wonderful! They toast the inside of the bun too!

    The 2 strips of Brisket I received for $20

    I've been to the location in Palm Beach numerous times and food is delicious. Pricey, but good. Finally went to the new Delray location. 2 slices of brisket which is supposedly the equivalent of a 1/2 pound. 1/4 pound of that is fat for $20.00. From the portions and prices, I don't see them making it long. I definitely won't be back.

    Stopped by because I recently saw comments about how wonderful their burgers were. We sat at a high top, so their "single" burgers; which have TWO patties are on special for $5.00. Honey got the jerk chicken sandwich. The burger was deeee-lish, made from sirloin and brisket with a cheese sauce that has a hot bite now and again, served on a warm, soft bun, crisp outside edges, juicy and tender inside. Crinkle fries were great. They offer a variety of sauces to compliment their sandwich's. Only complaint, they are closed on Mondays. Shout out to our extraordinary bar tender/server, Milo!

    Had heard about the West Palm Beach location and found out they opened one in Delray. I got the burger and my wife got the pulled pork sandwich, and we got three sides and some wings. Everything was amazing! It was one of the best burgers I have had! All the sauces were excellent as well.

    Nothing like the main location in WPB. A rundown hole in the wall. Brisket is excellent but the wings not so much. Parking is very limited.

Looking for a late night bite, we met family here and sat in the main dining room next to the crazy busy bar. Seems like a pick up spot for twenty-something people but soon realized that the bar action was second to the food. The server had a vibrant personality and told us the burgers were the specialty of the place. The smash cheese burger was on my table within ten minutes and was small but packed lots of flavor with gooey cheese. The sweet potato fries were plentiful and delish. My pet peeve is when restaurants serve a burger with a cold piece of cheese on top, not the case here. Others at the table got the regular burgers which were larger but not as flavorful. The tower of onion rings were impressively oversized with a crispy shell. Extremely loud inside so to converse with others was a challenge but if you want a good meal try this place.

    Stopped into The Office on a busy Friday around 5 pm and honestly had a great time. Even with how…read morepacked it was, we managed to grab two seats at the bar without any hassle, which already set the tone for a good night. This place definitely stays busy and clearly for good reason, they run it right. There's a ton of staff, so you never feel stuck waiting for a drink or service. Everything moved fast and smoothly, especially for a prime time crowd. We had a couple of drinks and shared an appetizer. The mac and cheese balls were super yummy, perfectly crunchy on the outside, warm and cheesy inside, and exactly what we needed. They really hit the spot. Overall, just a great vibe and a fun time right in the heart of the Ave. Lively, well-staffed, and consistently solid. We'll definitely be back.

Very good portion too. The bowl looks bigger than it actually is- it's not that deep just a wide bowl. The ahi tuna bowl was soooo good. Not too spicy just brought the perfect kick and heat. The new seasonal slushee drink was soooooo good. It makes me want to go to a tropical island and drink 6 of them lol. Really nice vibe there. At the end of our meal the server did get a little slow on service but its fine she was still very nice.

We walked through the review, and one thing became clear pretty quickly. The feta wasn't a mistake. It's part of how they build the dish. It's actually tied into their queso blanco and shows up as part of the garnish. The issue is that it's not listed anywhere in the menu description, and I made sure to point that out. To his credit, he said he'd take that back to the team. As for the rest of it, what I reviewed is what they're serving. No changes planned right now. If they ever DO make any changes, I'll be happy to re-review. He did offer a gift card, which I appreciated, but Florida Nacho Man doesn't take comps. The review stands.

There was no one available to help manually as all of the staff were in the kitchen preparing food. The food itself was a mixed experience. Our burgers were very salty, but the fries were excellent--which is really the reason this review gets three stars. Our toddler, however, loved the chicken tenders from the kids' meal. The atmosphere was another downside. The music was loud, and the TVs were playing continuous clips of people falling and injuring themselves from America's Funniest Home Videos. It was more disturbing than entertaining and took away from the dining experience. There was also a frustrating situation with drinks. My husband ordered a soda and I ordered water, but the staff gave us both soda cups. I assumed it was complimentary, so I poured a small root beer while we waited for our food. The manager came by, looked at our receipt, and I thought he was just checking our order. But when our food arrived, our toddler's apple juice--part of his kids' meal--was missing. When we asked about it, the staff member explained the manager had specifically told her not to give it to us because I had taken soda instead of water. This felt incredibly passive-aggressive and petty, especially since they gave me the soda cup in the first place and never said a word about it. I even offered to pour out the soda (which I had only taken a few sips of) so my child could have his juice. The staff member said she couldn't because the manager had instructed her not to. I asked to speak with him, but he disappeared to the back and never returned. I eventually poured out my drink, showed it to another staff member, and thankfully she gave us the juice. At no point did the manager approach us to discuss, clarify or apologize. It was very unprofessional, immature, and poor customer service overall. While a few things were enjoyable, the way the manager handled our situation left such a negative impression that we won't be returning.
