"Everything Harry says in his review is largely on the money: And don 't just take his and my word for it: This restaurant has about 800 ! reviews on Tripadvisor, almost all of them hugely positive. Who knows why Yelpers have stayed away, except that they 're apparently ig 'nant? Tropicana is off the beaten tourist path, it offers excellent value for your euro, and the service was phenomenal. The restaurant 's in a storefront in about a mile down the Ave. Málaga from the Plaza de España area, in a modern residential area, so it is somewhat out of the way for tourists. For us, getting there was a pleasant 20-minute walk on a beautiful evening. It 's been quite awhile since we there, but I do remember that the food was excellent, expertly prepared and creative. We shared a perfectly crispy fried spring roll of sorts filled with robustly-flavored braised oxtail that was seriously delicious , wonderful marinated anchovies, and morcilla served over nicely fried potatoes and topped with a poached egg, and a pickled padrón? pepper onions. For an entree, I had an octopus arm that was about as big as a baby 's forearm and that sold for only 16 euro great value! ; can 't really remember the accompaniments there, but the cephalopod was very nicely grilled. All of this stuff was terrific and robustly flavorful. My only complaint--and maybe part of the blame should be attributed to our ordering--was that everything was cumulative extremely rich--very heavy, with some items doused with perhaps a bit too much olive oil. Our server, who was the son of the chef, was as good as he could be. He spoke superb English didn 't even give us a chance to work on our Spanish, which had improved a bit by this late point in the trip! , took pains to guide us through the menu, and was just great all-around at his job. Decor-and-ambience wise, Tropicana is a bit of a puzzle. Obviously, the name suggests a Latin-American vibe, and aqua-ish color scheme, smooth surfaces, and clean-lines did, too. It almost seems like a Miami -themed restaurant, but then the food seems much more Spanish/European. Either way, it 's comfortable and sharp-looking enough."

My wife and I ate here for dinner based on another recommendation and absolutely loved it. The food and service were top notch. We especially enjoyed the octopus and the Iberico roast (amazingly tender and crispy at the same time). They timed the food perfectly and were very friendly. Highly recom

Estuve de visita hoy con un grupo de 12 en total. Este negocio es familiar y todos hicieron de nuestra visita una experiencia maravillosa. El menú esta actualizado y tiene elementos de influencia asiática. De entrada Gyoza de verdura y taquito de pulpo al ajillo. De principal huevos rotos con patatas, aguacate y tartare de atún ¡delicioso! Tenía 3 tartas caseras y las probamos todas. Mi favorita la de zanahoria. A la hora de apertura estaba completo el cupo por el resto del día así de bueno es. Hay que reservar!!!

Everything about this meal was spectacular. From the outside, the restaurant doesn't look like much, but venture inside and you'll be greeted to a feast of organic, locally sourced dishes cooked to perfection and delivered by an enthusiastic waiter with a smile on his face! The octopus dish is not to be missed, but my husband also raved about the Iberian pork! The chocolate pear dessert is something special as well. Everything is presented so beautifully it's hard to convince yourself to dig in, but you'll be glad you did so. The amazing service, stunning presentation, efforts to work with local and regional suppliers, and excellent taste justify the slightly higher price point. If you're tr...

Cannot believe I 'm the first Yelper to review this find. Yes it is a little off the beaten track but I enjoyed the walk from the Parador. Hands down this was the best service from any restaurant at which I have eaten in Spain. The place is like a cool open air respite from the tourist laden Ronda Streets. The food was delicious in every category. But I have single out the Pickled Quail Salad . Never heard of pickled quail but had to try it. Was not disappointed. There must have been the meat of half a covey of those little Bobwhite in that salad. The meat did not have a strong pickled flavor but silky smooth and the salad nice and tart. The nut and aged Balsamic added just the character nee...

Highly Overrated! My wife and I had such high expectations for this place after reading all the reviews, but were extremely disappointed after trying it out. Food was average and not worth the high prices charged for it. I've had better, and fresher, tuna and the burgers were dry and tasteless. McDonalds makes a better burger than this! My octopus was also a little rubbery. Desserts were perhaps the best part of the meal, but how hard is it to make a good dessert? The techno music playing at a rather high volume was also quite annoying and ruined the atmosphere. I am truly amazed at the high ratings for this place. There are numerous places in Ronda that are far superior to this, and for far...

It was a pretty long road trip through southern Spain, obviously a beautiful experience, but we were looking forward to stopping in Ronda for some local cuisine. After looking up guides and online searches, Tropicana seemed to be the place to go. Three of us went in with no expectations, and three of us went out thoroughly impressed! It was funny, the chef/owner waited on us, us being ignorant to the fact. We asked him what he'd recommend to which enthusiastically responded to get the ox tail. When we said we weren't feeling it, he trailed off in a stiff Spanish that our table mate translated as sadness for rejecting his signature dish. Well, I'm not usually guilted into things, but this did...
