About

Chicken RestaurantCuban Restaurant
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!

    When I went on the weekend the staff were all filling drive thru and to go orders. I was the only one in line, and I had to wait 10 minutes to order. The portions are small (except the rice). The chicken is very good. Pork had little flavor, and the steak was chewy, but tasty. I had to ask for the utensils and drinks, and plates individually, which I thought would be obvious after ordering. I probably won't be returning.

    I like to Thank Ashley A, Florida Catering Manager who was efficient and confident to arrange a catering order for 120 people in a VERY SHORT NOTICE. Special Thanks also to the 5780 S University, Davie, FL, Crew for having it ready on time without any confusion or mistakes, the food was more than sufficient the Chicken and the tropichop was delicious and all the attendees enjoyed it.

    Terrible customer service. Was 2nd in line today. 1st customer was helped. Told me 1 second. Helped the 3rd customer and 4th. Turned around and spoke to 2 co workers in Spanish and walked off. 1 dine in customer asked for a refill and the associate proceeded to help her. Another dine in customer asked for a refill, which was also fulfilled. After both, the associate again proceeded to speak with the same 2 associates in Spanish in which I responded in Spanish that I was going to leave a negative review because I don't appreciate the service and as I was leaving, she apologized and asked how she can help and I told her she can't anymore. 4th time there, won't return for a 5th

    It's been so long since I've eaten at any Pollo Tropical because I moved to Atlanta. My No. 8 quarter chicken platter dark meat with black beans and white rice, was just as delicious as I remembered! I'm such a true South Floridian because the only place I wanted to dine at was Pollo Tropical, chicken on the grill! Lol. My chicken was flavorful, seasoned well, and it hit the spot.
