   Fantastic! We had a great time, our server was great with multiple food allergies. She guided me to a great meal. The pork chop was great, and the buttered grits were phenomenal, but my favorite was a side of their black eyed pea and Lima bean succotash. To die for!

   Didn’t know what to expect before booking here… the online photos scream desert tourist trap… happy to report the overall experience was amazing. Perfect place for dates or hangs with fun friends. Be prepared for above average prices BUT Thai place is not average: all the dishes are generously portioned and so delicious. Service is wonderful. Be sure to make reservations. If you don’t reserve a table, please be kind to the staff as they do their best to accommodate you when they can. Will definitely come back next time we’re in Palm Springs.

    My friend's and my shrimp salads(2) were good, however, my husband's order for the catfish and andouille sausage was served with hot fish and meats, but, the grits were mushy and cold, not even tepid. He did not finish his dinner and was too polite to ask for a reheat.

    Love this restaurant! Our server was great. The ambience? Well, they can’t choose their clientele which seems to be young girls in way too short pink sequined dresses-ha! The shrimp tempura still makes my mouth water. Our salads and pizza-delish! The hostess—crabby, but probably because of the pink sequins. Overall we loved our choice!

    Nice atmosphere but the food was not good. Ordered a crispy nori ahi tuna roll but that was absolutely horrible. You can not call this a nori tuna roll. The whole roll was crispy and hard. Including the rice and didnt taste the so called fresh tuna. Idon’t know if the chef has ever been to Japan, but that was def not sushi. Sent it back, and we didnt had to pay for it, so that was solved wel. All the other was only fried and very salty. No taste at all. Unfortunately, we went for the good reviews but were not expecting this bad level :(

    The Tropicale is fun and the menu seems original. Service was upbeat and the food was all delicious 24 bucks is too much for the dessert, but it was a good dessert. The other prices were reasonable, considering the quality of the food.

    We sat outside and it was delightful. Full of life and energy. Misting from above helped keep things cool but did occasionally drip water on my head haha. Food was superb. Service was superb. Drinks were superb. It was such a smooth and top class experience. Definitely will return. Make reservations!

    LOVE this place! Excellent EVERYTHING! We brought our 2 small dogs and they were welcomed just as much as we were. Great outdoor space, INCREDIBLE FOOD, outstanding service (JOSH, YEAH!), every need was attended to by all of the wait staff for the smallest of requests. We will be making it a point to go back every time we are in Palm Springs.
