    This chicken was charred and tasted like literal ash. Had to peel the skin completely off.

    I ordered chicken well done, the cashier Susan, advised that for them well done means burnt. She then proceeded to let the gentleman preparing my chicken breast that I asked for them to be "burnt," and never used the words "well done." She was very rude and unapologetic about it.

    I stopped by just to grab some yuca fries. We used the drive-thru, so I couldn't see the inside ambiance, but the service was consistently poor. I tried ordering a frozen mango tropichiller from their menu and was told, "we don't sell that here," even though it was listed. There was little acknowledgment or courtesy overall. I asked for a sauce for the yuca fries and honestly I wasn't sure if the attendant heard my request until she handed me the sauce. A simple thank you or you're welcome can change a customers overall experience.

    Absolutely disgusting. All fat and rice that was at least 2 days old. I've lived here my whole life and have gone to many Pollo tropicals this was absolutely disgusting. The fact that they sold this is insane.

    This was the absolute worse chicken I have ever received from any establishment in my life! I went threw the drive threw and order 1/4 grilled chicken with rice and vegetables. The chicken was dryer than cardboard and tasted as such. I feel I was taken advantage of because I went through the drive threw. If I would have entered the store I would have never accepted this trash that they considered chicken. I will never go back there again.

    I think most people know what Raising Canes is like given that it's a national chain, so I'll start…read morewith my thoughts on this location. This location has a giant drive through, so it seems like it can handle a lot of drive through orders, although it was not very busy when I came. In terms of dining in, there are more tables outside than inside (the inside dining area is actually kinda small). All of the staff were super friendly and helpful, and my order came out quickly and piping hot. In terms of Raising Canes in general, I feel like Raising Canes is kinda like the In-N-Out of chicken restaurants. The menu is focused on a small set of foods, and those foods are done well. I'd only give it four stars though because I prefer other places' tenders and the food options they offer more, specifically the sauce options (I'm not the biggest fan of the Canes sauce). But the Texas toast and French fries are really good. On a sustainability note, I'd also wish they didn't serve everything in styrofoam containers. I feel like there is a more sustainable and Earth friendly option than styrofoam.

The drive-thru operation here is impressive and it moves incredibly fast and from what I witnessed there was practically no waiting time, even with a steady flow of cars. The entire location was very clean and well maintained, which always makes a big difference when trying a new place. What stood out the most was the staff. Everyone had a smile, greeted customers, and seemed genuinely welcoming, which made the whole experience feel positive from the moment you walk in. There's also plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, which is great if you want to sit and enjoy your meal instead of just grabbing it to go. Now for the food the chicken was juicy, fresh, and perfectly crispy. You can really tell it's made to order. I ordered the 4-piece meal that comes with crinkle-cut fries, coleslaw, and Texas toast, and honestly you need to come hungry because it's a lot of food. Everything was hot and fresh, and the toast was buttery and perfectly grilled. Of course, you can't talk about Cane's without mentioning their famous Cane's sauce. It's their "secret sauce," and it's hard to pinpoint exactly what's in it, but it's incredibly flavorful and pairs perfectly with the chicken and fries. The lemonade tasted freshly squeezed, not overly sweet like many fast-food drinks. It was light, refreshing, and the perfect balance to the meal. Overall, the experience was great, fast service, friendly staff, a clean environment, and delicious food. If you enjoy simple menus that focus on doing one thing really well, this place is definitely worth trying. I'll definitely be going back.

    This was my first time at Pollo Campero. I've heard nothing but good things about this place…read more Pollo Campero originated in Guatemala in 1971. This started out as a family run business. The staff here at Pollo Campero are very nice especially Marisela. She was so very friendly and when my food order was ready she walked it over to us. This restaurant was neat and clean and they have a good amount of tables if you want to eat in. I placed my order for takeout only. A customer who had eaten here 19 times told me to order their Fried Chicken.Everything is made fresh. Based on his recommendation I did. I placed my order for 3- 3 Piece Meals that consisted of a Breast, Thigh, and Wing. It came with a choice of a side. I chose 2 of their Campero Rice side, and 1 of their Baked Beans side. I also ordered an order of Chicken Nuggets, a side of Coleslaw, Yuca, and Sweet Plantains. I thought the sides could've been bigger, I'm used to bigger sides, and you definitely need to get multiple sauces for dipping the chicken, and Yuca. The Yuca was very a bit plain and needed a dipping sauce. I'm used to a garlic dipping sauce. They also sell Roasted Chicken, Chicken Nuggets, Chicken Sandwiches, Chicken Empanadas, and at some locations a Campero Bowl. If you order a 4 piece meal you can order 1/2 Fried Chicken,and 1/2 Roasted Chicken, or you can order just Fried or Roasted Chicken. The Fried Chicken was really good. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It had a crispy exterior, and the inside was very juicy and good. Even the Chicken Nuggets I tasted were delicious. They were all White Meat and some of the best i've tried. ( I highly recommend along with the Fried Chicken.) FYI make sure you ask for dipping sauces, It wasn't offered and I didn't know to ask. One isn't enough.My bf got their Campero Sauce, and their Ranch Sauce, both were good. If you have kids order their Chicken Nuggets and Fries. For Drinks they sell Horchata, Mango, and Jamaican along with Soda and Bottled Water. Pollo Campero has plenty of free parking. There are a few Handicapped Parking spaces and this place is wheelchair accessible. I want to try their Roasted Chicken and their Chicken Empanadas, and of course their Fried Chicken Sandwich. What I especially love is that they partner with Saint Jude's Children's Hospital. They are very community oriented. Pollo Campero also does Catering. I will definitely be returning

The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The environment is fun, and there are plenty of clever artifacts and photos to engage the eye. On to the food... we ordered the Southwest bowl and the lox bagel. As you can see from the pictures, the portions are sizable and the value for this area was decent. I think the total bill was around $30 for two entrées, a tea, and tip. The bowl has beans, tomatoes, avocado, potatoes, eggs, and cheese. It comes with a Mexican sauce and sour cream. We used a little of the sauce, as we found the dish a bit bland. Both eggs and black beans needed a little salt to enhance their flavors. While it was good, it was very soupy. The beans were not drained well, which I'm guessing--combined with the tomatoes--caused it. The lox bagel was beautiful but very hard to eat. The owners might want to consider dicing the tomatoes, onions, and cucumbers, as there's no way to eat this without deconstructing it. The salmon was good quality. Next time, I'd get a seasoned bagel instead of plain--it would probably be epic on an everything bagel. There are many other options for breakfast or lunch, and we would probably come back to try something different.

Zona Fresca is one of the best burrito/ quick service Mexican spots in Broward. Zona reminds me of the great burrito places I grew up with in California. The ingredients are always fresh and well prepared. The people behind the counter are friendly and helpful. There's plenty of seating if you choose to dine in this casual space. It's consistently clean and well kept. I'm a big fan of their shrimp and fish burritos, cheese enchiladas, and quesadillas. My family loves the pork burrito. You get chips with most meals (even to go), so be sure to hit up their fresh and awesome salsa bar. There's a great children's menu as well.

Despite that, we decided to order food and planned to sit outside to avoid the odor. We paid for our meal and then waited... and waited. The employee behind the counter was calling out order numbers, but ours was never called -- even though many customers who ordered after us received their food before we did. After standing there for quite a while, he finally asked if we needed help. I explained that we were still waiting for our order. He checked with the kitchen staff, and they responded dismissively in Spanish. We continued waiting while more orders were being called, but no one seemed to care about us or follow up. Eventually, I went back to the cashier and asked to cancel the order. He responded with irritation and said our order was canceled in a rude tone. We ended up leaving and going to another restaurant, where we received great service and excellent food. Overall, this was a frustrating and unpleasant experience. Poor service, lack of communication, and an unwelcoming atmosphere -- I would not recommend this place.

I'll call Five Guys just a burger place fitted for kids and the burger munching workforce that's needs a decent lunch and can avoid the carbs crash if you eat the 3 lbs of fries. Just ok.
