    1/2 Fire Grilled Chicken - With Rice & Beans
    Anthony G.

    It was late one night I was on my trip and I was hungry. I didn't want to go out as the first of my two conferences I was in Orlando for was about to begin. I decided to order some food to my hotel and looked on my Uber Eats app for ideas. One of the first ones listed was Pollo Tropical. I decided to order that because I am originally from Miami and used to eat often at Pollo Tropical whole I lived down there. I moved to Ohio back in 2020 and had not had any in so long. I ordered a half chicken with rice and black beans. Also had them bring me some spicy pollo pollo sauce. One uber eats ride delivery later, I was once again having some delicious food! Just like I remember it! Loved it... Nostalgia + flavor! I certainly wised I had one nearby my home back in Ohio.

    I ordered a Tropi Chop and it looks nothing like the image. The avocado looked like a splatter of avocado and not slices and the rest of the veggies look like the waste veggies or spare after you cut them. The chicken tasted raw. It was all bad.

    A lot

    Food was good even though they forgot our mac and cheese. Wasn't too much of a line when we went in & the staff was nice. Our order came up to $93 got a few family meals

    Yes that is a bum right by the door.

    I have lived in Florida all my life I moved from Miami to Orlando in December and let me tell you that this is the worst Pollo Tropical I have ever been to. I gave them to stars because the chicken was good but the sides were horrible. Everything tasted like old oil. I had never had to ask for refund till today. (Has to drive all the way back from home). They were cool about the refund but I wish they have been cool enough to make things better. Most def. ruined P.T for me in Orlando, for now I'm all about second chances.

    I love Pollo Tropical so we went yesterday for dinner. I took my family the three of us and the food was fine. The service was a bit slow and the two garbage bins inside the restaurant were completely stacked the top and overfilled with pictures I will include. I have visited this despojo tropical location at 7901 West irlo Bronson in Kissimmee Florida. The staff was friendly and helpful but seemed trying to catch up.

While this isn't my go to spot for hot chicken I definitely must say it's a good alternative if I don't wanna drive that far out as for a chain they definitely do it right! Totally have to give a shoutout to the staff working here as they were all totally cool with positive friendly vibes making for an excellent customer service experience! Overall yummy hot goodness should I come back I'm going for the top level of heat as I just love when things burn my mouth from spicy goodness!

Located in the Seville plaza, The Jamaican Dumpling Restaurant not only serves Jamaican cuisine but also Trinidadian roti. After greeting a male employee behind the counter, I placed an order for the guava bbq chicken which was served with rice and peas, steamed cabbage, and a side of fried plantain. After my order was ready in about 15 minutes, I sat at an available table to enjoy my meal. The steamed cabbage was tasty with a crunchy texture. The rice and peas was cooked to a soft consistency. The plantain were fried nicely. The star of the show was the chicken--tender pieces of meat covered in a sweet flavored sauce that had me sucking my fingers. My compliments to the cook, for the food was very enjoyable.

The oxtail was everything I hoped for, and everyone loved their dishes (we shared bites, no regrets).

    As a devoted DFB subscriber, I went into Chicken Guy already knowing AJ's take -- better than…read moreaverage, better than Chick-fil-A, but firmly in the mid tier. After my visit I can confirm: that's exactly right. Let's start with the good, because some of it is genuinely great. The space is clean and well maintained, with staff actively clearing and resetting tables at an impressive pace. For a fast casual concept, the fact that food is brought directly to your table is a thoughtful touch that elevates the experience above its category. And then there are the fries. My stomach is practically rumbling typing this. Freshly fried, crispy and golden on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and served piping hot. They're genuinely hard to compare to anything else -- unique enough to stand on their own. If Chicken Guy sold only fries, I'd be a loyal regular. The chicken, though -- the whole reason for the name -- left me with questions. Hot and fresh, absolutely. But the interior had a wateriness that crossed from "juicy" into something that actually diluted the flavor. Combined with a sweet and sour sauce so thin it refused to cling to the tenders, the whole thing fell a little flat. I found myself wondering whether the chicken had been moisture-injected, because it tasted more hydrated than flavorful. In the Orlando heat that might technically be a feature -- but a good tender should be able to stand on its own before the sauce ever enters the picture. I'd return -- the fries alone make it worth it. But I'd experiment with a different sauce and temper expectations on the chicken itself.

    We decided to stop by Chicken Guy for lunch while visiting Disney Springs…read more You can use your Disney Dining plan here and redeem a quick service meal for an entree and a beverage. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and there are a lot of choices to pick from on the menu. The interior is pretty large with a lot of seating areas both inside and outside. Inside is definitely preferred in the Florida heat. There are two drink stations with fountain sodas you can refill, but it's just standard Coke products and not a Coke freestyle machine. We had one order of the grilled strips and one order of the crispy strips. We also had the french fries, and we tried the bourbon BBQ sauce and the seasonal "korean spicy" sauce. The chicken strips were good. The grilled strips were a bit on the dry side, but they were a lighter choice versus the crispy ones. I appreciate that they have the grilled option for a lighter option. The fries had a light seasoning on them and were fairly standard french fries. We had heard that the sauces are the highlight here, and they were - OK. The bourbon sauce definitely had a punch of bourbon flavor, and the korean sauce definitely had that unique spicy korean flavor. They were a bit on the runny side, though, and I would've preferred a thicker sauce. Overall this was a decent meal, but it fell a bit short of expectations.

So one random night we came here and what I will say is they have a bunch of great values for different dinners or combos so I guess you get what you pay for but when it comes to flavor it really is just a mid piece of chicken. So I totally got a dinner box that came with 3 pieces, my choice of onion rings, and a piece of bread of this I must say the chicken was totally piping hot when I got it so that definitely was a factor of it being the better part of the meal but those onion rings were just terrible bland and frozen nothing special makes me wish I had ordered something else and the bread was just a roll nothing crazy but still made nice to add pieces of pulled off chicken to it and an onion rings to make a chicken sandwich along with some of their hot sauce drizzled on top! Overall the price is good for the amount of food you get chicken was hot but needs flavor and they were super busy but still helping everyone so I'll take that as a plus but would I go back that's a big nope as I'm really picky when it comes to fried chicken as I've had some of the best of the best!
