Tropix Pots Cuisines Bar & Grill

I have probably ordered from here 4 times. Each time the food was flavorful and delicious. I have never been inside the establishment but they often send ads for liming and the typical bar activities. It looks like a good time. However, lets get into the food. When looking at the menu you may be put off by the prices. Don't be! The portions are generous! It's going to take me a few days to eat the pasta alone. Not pictured(because I inhaled it) was the jersey mac & cheese. It was a respectable dryer version of Mac and cheese. The jerk seasoning is light and not overwhelming. Give it a try but just know that it's not a gooey mac. The wings are actually chicken wings, not wing dings. The lemon pepper ones were the right amount of crunch, tang, and flavor. The jerk wings are good as well. They are sauced and not fried. That sauce is finger licking good. I would be interested in trying these fried and lightly sauced. The rasta past is my go to. I've had it with jerk chicken and jerk shrimp but the oxtails are by far the best way to have this pasta. I appreciate the portions and the consistency in the flavors of the food. I can't wait to visit them in person one evening.

Update : Ordered the cocktail Pattie's again and I wonder if I was being punked ? Literally empty inside.

Stopped at a Caribbean Festival in Silver Spring and this place had the longest line. My wife and I decided to give them a shot. With a line this long the food had to be good. I spent $55 for these two platters. The Jerk Chicken was $20. Came with 3 pieces that immediately came off the grill but lacked the Jerk taste. Practically grilled chicken for me. The Mac & Cheese needs work. Tasted like cheese on top of a bunch of noodles. The plantains were good but as you can see there were about 5 of them.My wife ordered the oxtail. The Oxtail and Festival were good even though they only gave two festival. This meal was $30 with a lack on the sides to me. I'll know next year. I hope they improve.

This is our first try of this restaurant after it changed from the previous one. With the limited to go order, this review is only focused on the oxtails and jerk chicken wings that we ordered.Here I'm giving the oxtail and a five star . They were delicious and flavorful. Oxtail cooked to the perfection, easy to take off the bone & flavor was authentic. The rice came with it was a perfect complement. Chicken wings were bursting with flavors and not dry. Also the portions of the sides were plentiful, very solid. Highly recommend by @winedinenvacayand we are looking forward to dine in person in the near future.

I have to confess that my spouse and I- for the 1st time ever- entered a Jamaican food establishment where we weren't fighting to prove we're the customer and they are open to serve us not them doing us a favor. It became quickly apparent that much thought was placed into how the food was plated. Each entry was creatively presented (like 5 mini patties appetizer plated like little clam shells), or saltfish fritters lightly battered with fresh scallions as a garnish. I ate a succulent oxtail dinner with a rich meat sauce. My wife ordered curry goat (along with delicious side dishes). We asked a server if the Chef went to culinary school because of the thoughtfulness that was on display with every dish we tried. To our pleasant & humorous surprise it turns out we were unknowingly speaking to the owner who then enlightened us that she's is self taught. In summary the one description of the food and experience is "dignity". You sense the husband and wife team intends to bring dignity to a cultural dining experience often boxed in as a fast food after thought. I'm glad to have experienced them in this early stages.

This restaurant has a great ambiance and a good looking bar. The server was very helpful but a tad overwhelmed with our table of 10. If I lived in Maryland this spot would def be my go to for brunch. The mimosa special is crazy and they taste too good. I got the jerk wings and ox tail tacos and fries. All of my food items were good. I loved the jerk sauce. The only thing that was wrong with some of my friends orders was the rice was undercooked but they made up for it by offering a replacement and a dessert. Check it out!

Order the jerk chicken plate with rice and peas and fried plantains at the Caribbean American Heritage festival in Silver Spring. The jerk chicken is very dry. The rice and peas are bland and flavorless. The fried Plantains are good.

I stopped by here after I got off work to grab some dinner. The restaurant is right by my house and I was excited to try considering I haven't had any good Caribbean food in Frederick since I moved here 8 months ago. I ordered the Rasta pasta with shrimp and I must say it was DELICIOUS!!! Good portion and soooo flavorful! I ordered carry out but the next time I go I will dine in. The restaurant is beautiful and very spacious. Caribbean music was jumpin! Seems like a great place to have drinks and sit back and unwind after a long day or gather with some friends for dinner or lunch. 10/10 and highly recommend for delicious Caribbean food.

Food was very good. If you're looking for a savory and sweet combo, I would recommend the jerk chicken tacos with mango salsa. Service was excellent. Our waitress was very friendly and inviting. The ambiance includes soft lighting and earthy decor.

Went to Tropix Pots 1yr anniversary celebration. I really enjoyed myself. I'm hung up on the goat meat stew which is my most favorite dish. The entertainment of an Egyptian belly dancer, a fashion show and a Jazz artist was amazing. The service was very good. I really enjoyed my evening. I've seen this couple go thru the process of doing festivals to owning a restuarant. Please support this black owned multicultural restaurant. Its a hell of a drive from Odenton but I will be supporting them, then hopefully they will open a restaurant in Odenton or Annapolis.
