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!

Not sure if each location is different but the chicken had no flavor, the rice was dry and gooey at the same time and this is the 1st time I was given a roll instead of plantains. The staff was nice and the place was clean but I did not enjoy food.

Quiero reportar una situación con mi orden reciente. El plato llegó con porciones extremadamente pequeñas, el arroz regado y en muy poca cantidad, y la carne parecía seca y descuidada. Además, el pan llegó aplastado y duro. Honestamente, la presentación y la calidad están muy por debajo de lo que uno espera de Pollo Tropical.
Pagué por un plato completo y fresco, y lo que recibí no se parece en nada a eso
