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!

    Good Afternoon, I go to the restaurant location in Mac Nab Rd (north Lauderdale) but I completely onset with the staff at the restaurant in this location. You coming in the restaurant nobody help you in pick up your order or the person orders. The woman in the front the bad face (like no need to working) no took to me nothing, and she very nasty, she rolled my order to me and she said nothing. My first time and my last time in this location. Its really bad people working like that. It doesn't matter so much anymore if the food is good.

    This was an online order. It was a little after 5pm. The restaurant was empty. One chicken and beans and rice. They gave just legs and thighs. I ordered sauces. There was no sauces at all. I won't be returning.
