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 β 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!

Absolutely the worse service. The whole staff last night October 24th were too concerned about an issue with a gentleman that it was complaining for not being helped and because he was waiting for a long time. When it was our turn, even the woman on the register was looking to see what was going on with the other customer. When finally she decided to take our order, she was so rude to me, that my 16 year old daughter had to talked to her like she was a child. Then instead of getting our order ready, they were all paying attention to that customer complaining. One of the cooks saw us, and she decided to have one of the young staff members help us. It took about 30 minutes to get our To Go order ready. When we were leaving the Drive Thru was all backed up. They definitely need better staff. Then when we got home, the side order of fries, only had 6 fries. π€¦ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈ unbelievable. What a waste of money and time. Never again. We noticed last night that at this location at least, they do not like to help people that do not speak spanish.
