Kinda Tropical

Kinda different but certainly tropical. I love the vibe at this place. It feels like classic Austin. An old renovated gas station turned into a great lunch spot serving good bites and delicious drinks. I had (a few) frozen cocktails to help beat the beat and they were delicious. Didn’t try any of the food but several friends in my party did and had great things to say. The patio in the back is amazing. So much seating and very chill vibes. Highly recommend!

Kinda Tropical is kinda amazing. The menu may be brief but the choices cover the spread (tofu, wings, Thai basil soup, salsa, burgers…etc.) and you can find something for everyone. And the food is GOOD…the burger as a litmus test, is fantastic with great flavor, texture, perfect portion, and just pure deliciousness. The curly fries may be considered dangerous by some, I recommend ordering to share. The drink variety is great, from beer on draft to house specialty cocktails, and non-alcoholic options (kombucha and waters galore). The outdoor seating is plenty and the music and atmosphere is lively and relaxed.

Average…the sesame salad is very average and basic. Its just leaves, shreds of chicken, avocado and sesame seeds with a sad dressing. The waitress taking our order was not very friendly and she was kind of rude. The outdoor vibe is nice and the decor is cool!

Kinda Tropical has this cool I’m hanging out in my friends backyard vibe. They’re nice to host, make cocktails and provide food for you. If that’s what you’re in the mood for then Kinda Tropical is kinda what you’re looking for. People were nice, back patio has ample space and is dog friendly, food and drinks were ok. Best thing there are the yucca fries with the mayo dip.

This place is AMAZING, I’ve always seen this spot around the neighborhood but never went until now. 1st off the atmosphere is amazing, this is a great place to pregame, take a date on, or just go and chill, the wait staff is friendly and sociable and the vibes are off the charts in a good way. The food is delicious, the yucca fries are well Seasoned and are a great appetizer/snack to keep you from blacking out. The Sesame Salad is HUGE. Like normally some fries and a salad won’t fill me up but this salad alone left me stuffed. It was good, there were loads of chicken and spinach but most importantly they DID NOT SKIMP on the avocado at all. It was a ton of food tbh. Next time if I get the salad again I’ll probably get it by itself w/o the fries Lastly I just got the Paint it Black Marg and was highly satisfied. It was flavorful and boozy. Not boozy tasting to the point you wish there were more margarita mix and not too sweet/sour to the point you wish there were more tequila. Really a delicious drink. Overall let this review be a sign that you need to check this restaurant out. It’s reasonably priced food and drinks with a friendly staff and great atmosphere.
