    Less than half the standard serving of chicken.

    When I pulled up to the drive through and placed my order for a half chicken (dark meat) platter with brown rice and corn, I was informed that they had "ran out of chicken." The employee then stated that I could get the Classic TropiChop with the brown rice and corn that I had asked for previously. After pulling up and paying, I was informed that they had ran out of corn too as I was handled my chicken and brown rice meal. I was so upset when I got home to eat and noticed that I did not have the proper portion of chicken normally served for this meal. Why would you take my money and sell me rice with a sprinkle of chicken?! I tried calling the store and can't get to speak with a person.

    This is the chicken portion they placed in this tropichop.

    Why anyone would visit this location is beyond me. The ratings are 100% accurate and the employees and manager should be ashamed of themselves. 4 pieces of chicken breast in the tropichop. AVOID AT ALL COST

    Store contacted me to refund my money which i didn't even ask for after they noticed my review. That was very nice of them and a good way to run a business Going to try the shrimp again.

    I wish I could leave NEGATIVE reviews. Don't even both sending a "customer appreciation" coupon! Pollo Tropical is a PURE waste of money! Never again will I waste another dollar here. I recently received three customer appreciation coupons for $5 off, thinking I can use them all in one shot which your seem realistic considering every time I visit I spend $30. I tried and was told I couldn't use them! RIDICULOUS! Why send those?!!! Are you kidding? To top it off, this is how my meals came!! I am LIVID at the service! This is disgusting! Mind you, I did NOT remove the cap from the beans... they came WITHOUT CAPS! They were everywhere and ALL OVER THE BAG! My advice? Save your money and visit LA GRANJA FOR QUALITY CHICKEN AND SERVICE. Save yourself the time and energy. Clearly, Pollo Tropical is incompetent and low quality.

    Where is the negative one star? Please refer to the photos. I do not believe a paragraph is needed to explain the quality of the food. I cannot believe they had the audacity to serve those "wraps" to any customer. I ordered on the app, arrived as indicated on the app, and still waited 35 minutes for the food shown. Customer service also terrible. I heard team members say they did not have any side dishes outside of black beans and rice. When I received my order and asked what about the side dishes I ordered that they did not have, they tried playing off that they had put it in the bag. I had to un-bag everything for them to see that they did not give me the sides I paid for. When I asked for alternatives, they informed me they only had black beans and rice. I asked for a refund and they wrote on a blank piece of paper that they owed me three sides because they could not give me a monetary refund. Who would ever go back to this location? Horrific experience.

    Tropichop minus churrasco, beans and tomato.

    New location on University in Davie. They have some amazing food so far…read more I use the pick up option from there site. Great rewards program that os realistic and reasonable. Also reasonable price points for a combo sub to quick pick up for you or the kids. I also had the Mexican Street corn chicken sub ( not pictured) which was surprisingly good. The pictures do not show well, but one try and you will agree. Only con is the pick up location is public for anyone to grab. There is no monitoring which is what happened to me. Guy grabbed my bag (only bag there) and I had to stop him. Could have been an accident but not a coincidence it was by itself. Staff always greets so far (there 2 times)

You get a choice of dressings and I got garlic aioli. They have long sliced pickles (yum) so they stayed nicely on my sandwich. I opted for a bottle soda. My husband got a refillable fountain soda and a side of Mac&cheese. It was nice and hot and tasty. The staff was very friendly and the restaurant was very clean. They have inside and outside seating. All in all we enjoyed it and will return. Don't forget to download their app for rewards.

When I ask for modifications to my meal, it comes like it should. The employees are generally friendly but I've had a few times where they don't have the best attitude; luckily that's not the common trend though. This BK has recently remodeled their restaurant & from what I can see it looks very well kept. The inside is usually clean but that's something I hope for since it isn't THAT busy of a location. I recently got the Ghost Pepper Whopper they released for the Halloween season & honestly really enjoyed it! It was advertised as a Whopper topped with Ghost Pepper cheese, spicy queso sauce, crispy jalapeños & bacon, all within orange-colored buns & I'd say they definitely nailed it with this one. It had that flame grilled taste of a regular Whopper but packed a good punch with the spice. It wasn't too overpowering but you could feel the heat after a couple bites, I needed a French fry or sip of my frozen Coke in between. The crispy jalapeños gave it a nice texture that you usually don't get with a regular Whopper & the bacon was surprisingly thick/flavorful. I also really enjoyed the taste of the spicy queso. Unfortunately it was only for limited time but I hope they bring something similar back next year.

    I had been to Culver's in Tampa once and was excited to see they opened this location not too far…read morefrom me. This location is super clean compared to other fast food restaurants and there is staff walking around to bring people their orders and clean the tables/collect trash. Those employees are very nice, I wish I got the name of the lady who helped me while waited for my things because she was so sweet. The food was very fresh, you could tell it was prepared to order.

    Wow, I was very excited to try Culver's. So many people I know love it. I wasn't unhappy with the…read morefood but it did not mesmerize me. I ordered take out and there were probably a dozen employees behind the register and off to the side handling drive thru orders? I don't even know if they have drive thru here, but it seemed they do because these employees were in a separate section. Anyway, despite all the employees no one could tell me where pick up for take out orderes was. No signs and this was very annoying. How can they not know this?!? Finally got the food and went home. I ordered the Butterburger with cheddar. I thought it was pretty good. Nothing too memorable but not bad at all. I am glad I ordered the large fry because I shared these with my Mom and well, there wasn't too many fries for a large. A medium must be super skimpy. She got the Culver's Deluxe including tomato and American cheese. I took a bite to see which I liked better and surprisingly, the burgers tasted the same!! She did have tomato but it had zero flavor. The American cheese tasted like my cheddar. Odd or maybe they just put the same cheese on each one. I assume mine was not cheddar because there was no distinctive flavor. For a company based off their love of Wisconsin cheese, I was not impressed with the cheese on the burgers. Oddly enough, what stood out to me most about the whole meal was the cheddar cheese sauce for $1.79. This was excellent and I would actually stop at Culver's just for this. It was still warm when I ate it at home. I was really anxious for the Concrete and it is nothing to write home about. I got vanilla custard with mini M&Ms and fudge. It was OK. Certainly not bad but I am not on the Culver's bandwagon. The burgers look so sad in the photos. :(

As I waited for my meal I observed how they operated. They had maybe 3-4 cooks preparing the food. And 3 up front trying to fix the orders to go out. I did get helped through the line fairly quickly, but after that I think I waited at least 15 minutes or so before my to go order was ready. As I waited I noticed all three workers that were behind the counter were filling the orders, but not one of them took the time to notice not one, but two customers that were waiting in line to place their order for quite some time. I did notice them turn around and look at them after they had been waiting for a good 5 minutes or so, but even then no one stopped to take their orders. Finally from the back a young man comes over to help them, but only after he took his time changing out the receipt paper. Once I received my to go order and took it home I couldn't wait to see how it tasted because most of the reviews said the food was good. Well, that's where I disagree. My "spicy"chicken sandwich had no taste. Very bland and the meat was crunchy instead of juicy. The fries were very greasy and my husband's Mac and cheese and rice were un edible. We tried the mango pies and they were ok, but not good enough for us to ever return. I can easily cross them off my list of places to try
