Food being marinated in fruit juices with a
secret blend of Caribbean spices makes ‘Pollo Tropical’ a winner
You have
a lot of options on the menu and can tailor your choices to your level of
spiciness. They have wonderful specialty drinks on offer as well. You can
enjoy healthy grilled chicken on an open flame before your eyes soon after you
place your order. Really great chicken, pretty good sides and yummy cilantro
garlic sauce is what I would highly recommend. It’s kind of Cuban, but
also kind of Puerto Rican too. I guess Latin Caribbean would be a good
way to describe the succulent, tender, savoury, fall off the bone grilled
chicken they serve up here. Consistency, value, consistency! The prices
are just unbelievably reasonable and you get great quality food I also tried a
‘Tropichop’,
though after a lot of rethinking, because on principal I never
order anything with a silly name because it seems like a ploy to get people to
say something silly for an irrelevant purpose. Why this is called a Tropichop?
I wondered, because the food is supposedly tropical and the meat is ‘chopped’?
Whatever!! Anyways I got mine with chicken, white rice, black beans, tomatoes,
corn, peppers, and onions. It was decadent to the core, completely wholesome
and married well with the Spicy poyo poyo sauce. To end on a sweet note, do not
leave without trying the ‘tres leches’ a freshly baked pound cake drenched in a
light cream, covered with fluffy icing with a cherry on top….yummy!
Definitely Pollo
Tropical has a repeat customer in me. For fast food, it sure tastes much better
than any other fast food I have had. Some stuff even tastes more like a home
cooked meal. Fast, cheap and the staff is actually lovely! All in all thumbs
up! Did I mention consistency?
Looking
for authentic Caribbean food? Looking for nourishing and healthy food? Looking
for friendly and quick service? Looking for good prices? Pollo Tropical (pronounced
poyyo tropicaaal) is the way to go. This little chain of heaven was started in
Miami; it was interesting for me to find out later on their website that they
have been around since 1988 and is located variously across America and in
countries all over the world (including India now, Trinidad, and Honduras!).The
food is delicious, has large quantities, and the price is reasonable.
