When the search for the quintessential South Florida steakhouse leaves you overwhelmed, trust the tradition: Tropical Acres is the unequivocal “must-visit.” From the moment you step out of your car, you can smell the deliciousness of what awaits, and upon entering the foyer, you can feel the history of this fourth-generation family-owned establishment come alive. This is where impeccable, Old School Florida Style Steakhouse setting meets unexpected culinary abundance.

The atmosphere is one of timeless, classic celebration. The very presence of a live piano player in the main dining room is the epitome of CLASS. Even without reservations on a rainy Saturday, the spacious, warm, and inviting lounge area offers excellent service and the perfect start to the evening. The timing is meticulous: like the movement of a fine Swiss watch, you are whisked away (thank you, Kate) to your cozy dining table.

The flavors are extraordinary. Start your evening with perfection in a glass thanks to bartender Russell, followed by appetizers like the Stuffed Mushroom Caps (filled with seafood stuffing and topped with a delicate Hollandaise) or the Escargot prepared in shallot butter sauce.

For the main event, the “NY Strip for Two” (butterflied and about 24–26 oz) delivers an incredible, robust flavor. The steak was prepared to perfection and so tender it practically melted in my mouth like butter. Adding succulent and juicy Lobster Tails creates the perfect combination. Paired with Steamed Broccoli and a Baked Sweet Potato, every dish was absolutely delicious!

Tropical Acres offers experiences that few other restaurants dare to attempt: maintaining the standard for what a traditional Florida Style Steakhouse should be for decades. The ultimate FOMO moment comes with dessert: the Classic Key Lime Pie—simply what you would expect from this Famous Florida Iconic Restaurant. This place is well known for a good reason and serves one of the best steaks you will EVER eat.

This establishment is so well known that availability is quickly consumed. You must Call in and Make reservations to guarantee your table for this truly special occasion spot, which offers a large parking lot and is truly Always amazing!
