The food was hot and delicious and the staff were beyond helpful and polite. The restaurant was clean.

This place will not include any sauces or extras with delivery orders. It doesn't matter if it is included with the meal or if you pay extra for it, you will not get anything. I also ordered all dark and got mixed, my wife ordered a Caesar salad and got black beans. We did get some pulled pork, not sure why that was but I would rather have had what I ordered. And this happens every time I order from here. I guess it's my fault for expecting them to ever do better. read more

Food make me sick. . Muy poco cuidado con la comida varias personas que conozco y yo mismo nos hemos enfermado con la comida de este restaurante. No le recomiendo a nadie. Ya que podrían terminar en el hospital con envenenamiento de comida read more

Love Pollo Tropical. I always get the Drumstick / Thigh Kids meal for under $7! You get a regular size thigh and drumstick with choice of red beans or rice I always opted for yellow rice with the carrots and peas in it. Also a Medium drink and a Cookie of a day and the cookie is huge! The chicken here is delicious ROASTED chicken. The seasonings is on point and the chicken is cooked well. The yellow rice is also delicious not too salty it compliments the roasted chicken well. The desserts can be tempting such as the flan but I have not tried it yet because by the time I am done with my meal I am stuffed. I cannot even eat the cookie at this point because I am full. The service here is good UNTIL you get to the DRIVE THRU in which one of the young gals could not refill my drink from the window she asked me to go inside and get the refill in which I insisted until she gave up and finally refilled my drink. That lost a star on my review. They are known here for the Roasted Chicken so if you order outside of that then you are on your own LOL I have seen many diners order the family pack to go. This is the one close to the MCO airport btw next to Chuy's and Cheddars. read more

Excellent experience in Pollo Tropical! From the moment we arrived, they received us with a smile and first-class attention. The staff was super friendly, attentive at all times and with an attitude that really makes a difference. The food came out fast, fresh and delicious, with that authentic flavor that we like so much. read more

Near me. Today visited. Experience? Not good. I used to visit here occasionally. After today? I definitely will not be back. Menu used to offer grilled chicken breast. I noticed a panel on their menu was missing. The cashier kept placing my order for a bowl. After a few asks, she finally pushed me a small laminated menu with the plate I wanted to order. Why wasn't this not on screen menu? Meanwhile in the background? 4 employees behind the counter just joking and laughing. Restaurant? About 6 people dining, not busy at all. So we get through that very awkward moment. Me? Latin/ Caribbean fast food? I always need sauce/salsa. So I asked. They had nothing out of the 8 on their menu! Nothing! They claimed they didn't have the ingredients. Fine. Then please just take down that menu. Food. His bowl, he said, was just OK. My chicken? No breast. A wing, had that been on grill awhile. Super dry. Beans? Typically here before you had a salad bar of sauces and onions. Nope. I like onions with my beans. There are so many local latin restaurants in area. Do yourself a favor. Find a better option. Definitely avoid here. read more

Ordered mojo pork wth rice and beans and the portion of mojo pork was very small and had some fat which means less meat. Then they had a pix of 7 to 8 avocado slices for two something. I asked to see it and the portion was about one fork full. read more

Excelente servicio..muy rico los azados..todo muy limpio y organizado ...se los recomiendo

Best stuff ever my go to is the chicken breast platter with the rice and beans with the added side of their Mac and cheese. Always great customer service too. read more

This review is for the Pollo on Semoran. I would like to give a shout out to Adrian, he is a top notch employee. The food is always excellent and good quality. The reason for the low rating is because of the customer service of several of your other employees. They have zero personality and often get the order wrong. For example items are missing or the order is just plain wrong and needs fixing. There is no apology and often get the impression that I'm not wanted in there. I've been ignoring it for awhile now but just so you know I'm not coming back to this location ever again. Even with an online order an item was missing and the employee who handed me the food was rude. The drive thru takes awhile, especially if it's busy. There is no winning with this location. read more

I enjoy eating fast food that taste like home cooked food. This particular Pollo's food (on 436/near the airport) was well seasoned and tasted fresh. (Other locations not so much...) I ordered the grilled chicken platter with rice/beans and Mac-cheese. Everything was tasty. read more

Pollo Tropical - 1/2 Chicken Platter - Latin American Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Lunch specials offer an opportunity for a satisfying meal at a low price. I ordered a 1/4 chicken, rice/beans, and a roll for under $5. Lots of flavorful meal options at a variety of prices. Highly recommend trying the balsamic tomatoes for a punch of flavor! Tip: Drinks are not included with the meal. Water cups are free. Tip: A side of rice and beans can be customized with red or black beans and white, brown, or yellow rice. read more

Review #869. I came to this location in Orlando after having pretty bad experience in South Florida. One of the first things I noticed upon arriving Waze how noisy this restaurant is. The noise is not coming from its customers, it's coming from the exhaust fans in the kitchen. I noticed a couple of times while I was placing my order the young lady could not hear her colleagues behind her that we're trying to get her attention. The food I had at this location was very good, my chicken was nice and moist, just like everybody likes it. My rice and black beans were very good, and so were my platanos. Overall the food was very good, all the employees I encountered were very nice, customer service was good when they could hear me. The food taste really good here. Being on this side of Orlando, they have a lot of competition for Latin cuisine. Give it a try sometime, I'm sure you will not be disappointed. read more

Pollo Tropical - 1/4 Chicken Platter, Black Beans, White Rice,roll. 7/3/19 - Latin American Near Me - Orlando, Florida

very good place, clean, and very fast service, and very good attention, I recommend it!! I will return for sure..

I was really looking forward to coming here since they closed all businesses here in NJ. I had ordered their pork dish and did enjoy it. The only thing I did regret was to tell them to put the black beans on the side because it made my rice watered down. The rating is 2 stars because there are lots of negative things and perhaps it was only this branch in Florida. Its 90 plus degree with humidity, the place has no AC, wtf. The tables aren't clean. The condiments stand has little to nothing available depending on which condiments and dressings you are looking for. They have an employee supposedly cleaning the tables, sweeping the floors and checking on the condiments area. I thought once the teenage employee saw that there is nothing left on certain condiments, that he will go refill it. He left and as I waited with my family to eat, I turned around few minutes later and spot the employee sitting at a corner texting on his cell. The tables and floor is still dirty so I have no freakin clue what the boy was cleaning or in this case wasn't cleaning. Overall, food was good but I'd recommend others to go to another restaurant location with AC and is clean and provides full condiments! read more

Chicken always seems dry and damn their prices seems to have gone up they offered ribs. Way over priced. I could eat at Sonny's way cheaper for ribs read more

This is my favorite franchise location of Pollo Tropical. I especially like that they have what I call "pub chicken Caesar" salads. They're usually (but definitely not always) pretty fast. read more

I used to get the chicken meal and liked it a lot for its unique flavor. Early in the year I ordered the same and the chicken looked like a torch burned the top to charcoal. I thought it was an accident but apparently that's the way it's done now even in Oviedo. I don't mind a little I just can't do blackened chicken. I normally don't like pork however, I tried my wife's pork which was very good, reminded me little like roast beef. so, I guess it's pork from now on. After the pandemic, refills and condiments are by request at the counter. read more

Pollo Tropical - Latin American Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I came in today for a quick lunch to go. The woman at the register wasn't too warm and welcoming. It felt like she was kind of yelling short phrases at us to get us through the line fast, even though there was only one other couple behind us. There was no "Hi how are you" or "have a good day", it was all more like "What do you want" "ok what else" and then she said the total and asked for the next in line. I give three stars because they got the order right and it came out very fast. I have an issue with basically every other Pollo I've been to because the order is ALWAYS wrong, but thankfully not here. The sauce/condiments area needed a wipe down but I always love that cilantro garlic sauce and the pineapple rum sauce. The restaurant could've been a little cleaner and from standing in the middle of the restaurant, I couldn't find any garbage can anywhere until I went outside. TLDR: the food was good and made right thankfully. Service and cleanliness could use improvement. read more

Great customer service they made my day after a nightmare day. They are fast, caring, polite, well spoken. great food. Thanks guys.

Man, I miss this chain. I'm not a fan of fast food, but this stuff is just too good! I love the pork dishes, but the chicken is good too. And the sides, like beans & rice, plantains, and tomatoes, are tasty. Maybe I'm deluding myself, but it just seemed better for me than other fast food. It definitely tastes fresher and is well-prepared. read more

What to say about Pollo Tropical? It's delicious, it's healthy (kind of), it's fast and it's 1 minute from my house. Basically you can't go wrong by ordering anything with rice and beans and either steak, chicken or pork. My favorite dish from Pollo Tropical is the Pork Tropichop with yellow rice and black beans. Delicioussss! For dessert skip the flan and the tres leches, go with the guava cheesecake instead, you will not the disappointed! One quick and VERY important tip: Whenever you order through the Drive Thru, while you are still at the window, make sure you check that everything inside your bag is correctly. 90% of the time these guys either forget one of your items or they mess up on the order! So, if you don't want to get home and find yourself face to face with a chicken quesadilla instead of the delicious ribs you ordered, make sure to check your bag before you drive off! :-) read more

Super fast. Good quality for fast food but tiny portions. Like 2 tiny ribs and a tiny piece of chicken. Mashed potatoes were good. Plantains were amazing. Cornbread casserole was odd. Getting family portion for just myself next time and I'll be happier! read more

Always a solid option for fast food. They have a variety of different sauces to suit every one's liking. Value price for Hispanic food. Not top quality or anything but they always get an A for consistency. read more

I've tried this place 3 times and just like many others who have always loved "Pollo Tropical", I do too... But man... this place is an embarrasment for the chain & gives them a bad name. They're usually always out of chicken or every other important food that you hope to buy... and their customer service isn't great either. It's so sad cause I'd literally probably eat there nearly everyday since I live so close and it's on the way home. But instead... my money is wasted on McDonald's & I honestly hate McD's food. But I know they'll have something for me to buy and I know the service is 1000% better unfortunately. Such a waste of space. I really don't know how this place remains opened. Good luck trying to get food there. read more

BE CAREFUL! I just wasted $30 on dinner for my family and everyone chipped a tooth on UNCOOKED RICE!

Haven't been able to purchase food the past 3 times I came to this location. Why bother even paying the workers? Might as well be closed. Always an issue with the system or they're always out of chicken. read more

This place is horrible, including the staff. The staff is unprofessional, the cooks need some cooking lessons, this place is filthy and for some reason they have invented a position for employees that I have not seen in any other Pollo tropical restaurant. I place my order and had to wait for a made up server to come and give me my food. What a mess! The bar area where the condiments and sauces were at was a complete mess with dirty napkin sitting on top where it was visible for the public to see. This place needs to be closed down and all the employees including supervisors or managers should not be allowed to work in any other one of these restaurants as it will go down just like this one. I will never step foot in this restaurant ever again. read more

I am a big fan of Pollo Tropical. I came here today for the second time, and the service once again is terrible. Usually the people who work at Pollo Tropical are excited to serve you. I will not come back to this one again both times they were rude loud talking and it was a really unpleasant experience. They are more interested in talking about their personal problems with each other and who is it working, than giving Good customer service. Avoid this location. read more

What can I say? I'm a Pollo Tropical junkie and eat at multiple locations in the Orlando area depending on where I am working or visiting. This location can vary from making delicious tropichops (basically an AMAZING bowl of your combination of meat, beans, rice and veggies) to mediocre tropichops missing out on an adequate portion of meat. Overall, this location is super clean and has ample seating. read more

I would give this place a big fat negative star!!! They had vegan options which really made them stand out, now all of a sudden they don't have the beyond meat. Not everybody eats meat. I'm sure if they ran out of chicken it would have been a problem. It's been month since they've not have the beyond meat. So a classmate told me well they do 50%off for healthcare workers every Tuesday of the month. So I said let me give them another try, I go thru the drive thru and they say there not doing it anymore. Really ?!?!?because I was on the phone with a classmate who was ordering there food at the exact same time and the pollo tropical they were at was doing the 50%off. So I said I'm not gonna be a bitch about it. I'll just order some Yucca fries. I express to the manger how disappointed I was in there restaurant!! He didn't care!! Just gave me my bag of yucca fries....oh that's not it, they didn't even offer me any sauce. I will never go here again, nor recommend it!!!! read more

Good food and prices. Love their Sweet Plantains, Caesar salads, and sandwiches. Tried the wings last night and they were on the dry side (may have been old) but the seasoning was good. The marinade they use on their chicken is good and it is grilled which is even better. The soups are also good and warming on those cold days! read more

I wish we could give it NO stars. This was my second time here and the chicken was not fully cooked...again. The old guy that took our order was okay..but did not seem at all happy to be at work.
