Inspired by its Miami roots and a recipe for fresh 24-hour citrus marinated chicken, Pollo Tropical began offering guests across Florida a creative take on traditional Cuban dishes, as well as foods from other parts of Latin America, over 35 years ago.
Since then, Pollo Tropical has been dedicated to preparing fresh, great tasting foods in their kitchens every day – like their signature Grilled Chicken and Mojo Roast Pork, served with the fan-favorite black beans and rice, in platters and TropiChop bowls.
At Pollo Tropical, authentic preparation, fresh ingredients, and a creative twist on traditional flavors is the perfect recipe for delicious craveable food. Come taste the passion!

Pollo Tropical never disappoints! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked — you can really taste the quality. The staff here is super friendly and always welcoming, which makes the experience even better. Great food, great service, and great vibes every time!

Ordered 2 Grilled chix beasts and they were hard and overcooked. Probably left over from last night as I ordered shortly after they opened for lunch. $10 for this absolutely awful meal just sad. Stay away.

Ordered take out. Entire order, wrong. In addition, black beans was mostly liquid. Their quality control is non existent. When you call the store it's all automated you will not get a person to discuss.
