Family meal
Betsy T.

Highly recommend the Family Meal from Pollo Tropical! This was such a great value and the food was incredible! We had the chicken, pulled pork, rice, beans and added on some plantains! The sauces were all delicious too! I look forward to ordering again when we're in the area!

Santina R.

Delicious options for a cheap cost. Definitely a great lunch spot! Food is made fresh and is healthy!

Whole Chicken & Mojo Roast Pork Tropichop

Thank you Pollo Tropical for reaching out to me. To their credit I used Pollo's app to order delivery which ultimately was DoorDash. My two meals finally arrived WITH the Spicy Poyo-Poyo sauce and all is right in the world once more!

Grilled Chicken Sandwich
Will E.

Aroma is great. My son enjoys coming here because he is a very picky eater. He does enjoy the rice and black beans. I do enjoy the grilled chicken and anything on the grill, especially when fresh. Not the best but not bad.

Bright, clean,fast, and delicious tropical flavors.  Tropichop is always a favorite.

First time ever trying it since we don't have these back home--and wow. This place doesn't just serve chicken fingers... they serve life decisions you'll never regret. The menu? Simple. To the point. No "Do you want it grilled, wrapped, blackened, or turned into a burrito?" nonsense. It's: chicken fingers, fries, toast, slaw. Boom. My kinda place. The vibe inside was unexpectedly chill. "Love Again" by The Kid LAROI was playing, and I swear those chicken fingers hit different with background music that makes you question your teenage heartbreaks. Employees? Cool, calm, and friendly--like they already knew this chicken was about to change our lives. Now let's talk food. HOT HOT HOT chicken. Crispy outside, juicy inside. Fries? Golden perfection. And the slaw--listen, I'm a slaw kinda guy, and this was not your sad picnic slaw. This was slaw with confidence. That Cane's sauce? Let's just say I considered baptizing my fries in it. The place was spotless, the energy was welcoming, and honestly, if Cane's wants to expand to my hometown, I'll personally volunteer as tribute to cut the ribbon at the grand opening. Bottom line: Raising Cane's at 2AM is greater than life's problems.

Easy parking Friendly service…read moreFresh & hot food Husband was charging Tesla and we were sitting hungry after a super long day and weekend of dance.

I walked into Slim Chickens with dangerous levels of optimism…read more Big mistake. Before going, I watched a video on their website where the founders were talking about how, when they came up with the concept, they noticed other chicken tender places in the South "weren't doing it right." Now, they didn't say Raising Cane's by name, but come on. We all know who they were side eyeing. And as lifelong Cane's lovers, that got my attention. Because if you're going to throw shade at Cane's, the food better come out swinging. It did not! It came out dry, bland, and exhausted, with a texture that somehow managed to be overcooked and underwhelming at the exact same time. I didn't know you could ruin a chicken tender. I thought chicken tenders were one of those foods with a built-in safety net. Apparently not. Slim Chickens found the trap door. Then came the sauces. I asked the cashier what sauces he recommended since it was our first time. His response was basically, "I don't really like the sauces." That should have been my cue to turn around and go find literally anything else to eat. I tried the Slim's Sauce, which he described as ketchup and mayo with some herbs. That description was unfortunately accurate. It tasted like someone tried to reverse-engineer a good chicken sauce from memory while trapped in a break room. It was flat, boring, and nowhere near the level of Cane's sauce or even KFC's sauces. The garlic toast was another crime scene. Thin, wrinkled, cold Texas toast that looked like it had been toasted earlier that morning and then left to think about its choices. Calling it "garlic bread" feels generous. Calling it "bread" was already a stretch. The fries were those fake "hand-cut" freezer-section fries with the skin left on, like they're trying to convince you somebody in the kitchen actually touched an actual potato that morning. They were hard, overcooked, and tasted like they had been holding on for dear life under a heat lamp since opening. Not rustic. Not fresh. Just sad fries wearing a costume. And the atmosphere? Weekday lunch in Celebration, and there were maybe two people eating inside. That should have told me everything. A chicken tender place at lunch should have some life to it. This felt like a franchise location already rehearsing its goodbye speech. The funniest part is Yelp has this place sitting around 4 stars, but when you actually scroll through the reviews, there's a suspicious little cluster of glowing 5-star posts from "Elite" Yelpers around the same time. Maybe they all just happened to have the best chicken experience of their lives in the same week. Maybe.... All I know is what we were served was nowhere close to 5 stars. It was barely close to lunch. If the founders really built this concept because they thought other chicken places were "doing it wrong," I have some bad news: Raising Cane's can sleep peacefully tonight. KFC too. Slim Chickens didn't reinvent chicken tenders. They reminded me how badly simple food can go when nobody in the building seems excited about it. With Cane's expanding all over the place, this location better figure something out fast. Because if this is the product, I don't see Celebration celebrating it for long. I'm giving two stars, and honestly, those stars goes to the cashier for telling me he doesn't really like the sauces. That was the most helpful and accurate thing served to me all day.

I had the 4 bone ribs & brisket platter with French fries and beans. Paul the GM walks around to make sure everyone is doing well. The brisket was tender with a nice smoke flavor that didn't over power the meat. The ribs had a nice smoke ring and seasoned just right and it was so tender but had that ever so slight chew that I look for in smoked ribs. The beans, dem beans, were incredible! It's a three bean mix with pieces of pork. Definitely in house made! I've had barbecue all over the country, Texas, Kansas and Memphis, and I must say Ellie's is my new favorite place! This is a very clean restaurant with friendly staff. The prices are so reasonable, my plate was $23!!! I will definitely be back the next time I'm in Orlando! Almost forgot to mention their Southern Lava bbq sauce is the best spicy bbq I've ever had so I bought some!

My husband and I split a Cobb salad with brisket- so dang good, and a 6 wing plate. Salad- fresh, delicious. Maybe just larger dressings for a salad that size. Wings- crisp, tasty, good amount of meat and flavor. Daughter had the nachos with pulled chicken, son had the single smash burger- both really liked and looked great. My other daughter had the Sunday grits. She didn't love, but mostly as there were a lot of flavors and she prefers plain grits. Still good, just not what she expected. We will be back to try more for sure next time we are in town. Delicious.

It's a shame the company did not align themselves with the values to keep the operations going but can understand the need to consolidate locations. I'm not here often but would have liked to come back here a few more times after the 20th. Service was very good but 1 soda machine was down and the other had limited offerings with Diet Coke being outdated and horrible tasting.

We had to check out PDQ after hearing such good things about it considering we don't have one up…read moreNorth. My brother even said it is better than Chick-Fil-a believe it or not. We ordered the spicy chicken sandwich, the classic crispy sandwich and then also got a side of fries and a side of mac & cheese. We split everything so we could judge it all instead of buying everything individually and running up the bill. Overall, I loved it. The spicy chicken sandwich had such a good flavor and spice to it. The heat profile was nothing super crazy which made it very delicious to eat. The waffle fries are very good here too. It definitely gives off the vibes of it's chicken competitors but it seems the focus is more on the different kinds of chicken and spice levels. The interior is nicely themed and it makes it a great spot to sit, even though we got it for takeout. I really liked the whole overall experience for a fast food place. It's pretty great.
