NIGERIA Eat the World NYC Review: Tropical Grill is a charming restaurant during the day and a lively lounge at night, making it a standout spot on the otherwise dull route from Rockaway Blvd to JFK. The afternoons are perfect for enjoying the delicious cuisine, including their highly praised fish pepper soup, which ranks among the spiciest dishes around. Sample some Nigerian beers and embrace the laid-back vibe of a West African afternoon at the bar. If you're planning a late-night outing, gather a group for bottle service and see if you can snag a seat in the VIP area.
Please avoid this restaurant at all costs because they will frustrate your life. Not only is the customer service terrible, but they also keep switching your order and sending unsealed food.The two plates of rice I ordered today both came unsealed and this is not the first time this has happened. Sometimes when you order carrot cake, they give you red velvet instead or when you order fried rice they give you jollof. I have tried to be patient with this restaurant but Ihonestly don't see myself ordering from here anymore.
This was my first experience with African cuisine, and I was pleasantly surprised. Although I'm not a big fan of meat, I initially tried the spicy goat served with pounded yam and Jollof rice, which was delicious. On my most recent visit, I opted for a meat-free dish, and they were very accommodating in making the necessary adjustments to meet my request. I really appreciate the excellent customer service here.
Whoever cooked the pounded yam, egusi and fry fish on 06/20/2022 at 5pm. Take all my money!! Im only in my 20s but when I get my pension, you can have it. The food was so good. And God bless person who first cooked African food .

This restaurant is well-maintained and easily accessible. They serve generous portions at affordable prices. I really enjoyed my meal, and the staff were very attentive and friendly. I highly recommend this place!
The food was okay. I believe it was overall a little stale and more bitter tasting than what I am accustomed to eating Nigerian food in Brooklyn. however, the meat was good and fully cooked which I appreciated.
It’s always great when a restaurant lives up to your expectations. If you’re familiar with Puffpuff and enjoy it, you can count on them to prepare it excellently. Definitely give it a try!
Not worth the money. Food isn?t as good as it looks and so little. Their puff puff is as hard as rock. Nothing is fresh. At this rate the business will surely go down.

I bought Egusu with mixed and pounded yam and there was only three tiny pieces in it and the yam was not cooked properly. And I vomited everything up
The food was incredible. The server was very attentive and made sure we understood all the different food options available to us.
