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!

They changed the yuka fries. They are not good anymore, and don't have the stringy bits that let you know it's real yuca. It's just mush fried in little balls now. I love Pollo but the yuca fries thing just made me soooo sad.
No shade to this particular location or the employees , they were great

I met Mario on the trolley back to the crib and I actually never had Pollo Tropical but the homie Mario was just talking about how gas it was like they literally fire the grilled chicken right in front of you and its just about as fresh as it can really get, never frozen. Bro I ain't never had Pollo Tropical before but best believe imma be going to go grab some from Mario asap. And it was a blessing I met him because if he wouldn't of forgotten his has that day he wouldn't of gotten sent home early. So shoutout to Mario gang ill see you there 🐔🔥🔥🔥
