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 at 60th and 24th West in Hialeah is a very pleasant and welcoming place where they sell a variety of well-prepared foods with high protein content, offering attentive and wonderful service from their young employees. I congratulate them; continue working with care and dedication as you have done until now.

To the girl working the drive thru window on Friday 11/21/2025 at 1:25 pm… please work on your attitude… it’s unfair for us as customers to be given an attitude when all we want to do is order our food and go back to our day.. also you didn’t give me my receipt you just slammed the window

This food looks pathetic. They messed up everyone in my group’s order. There was not even a single order that was correct. This is absurd they should not even be in business. Bc I do not play abt my food. I want to eat good and now I’m eating garbage because people who are getting paid to do their jobs cannot seem to do them properly. And that is what pisses me off. Everyone that worked on this order deserves to be fired. AI and robots could’ve made my food and put together the food better than they did. At this point I’m so done. I am never going to eat at ANY pollo tropical again. Such a waste of money.
