    Avocado Cilantro TropiChop® - Crispy
    Lorrisa L.

    Bowl of chicken soup barely has any chicken in it. I will stick to my grilled chicken avocado salad as it is usually consistent as long as they aren't stingy with the chicken on that as well and the beans aren't hard. The chipotle dressing definitely adds great flavor the salad.

    Mal servicio, pedí comida para llevar y cuando la abrí parecía comida servida para perro, yo creo que ni mi perro se la come.

    It looks like the owner simply decided to plop down a couple of chairs and tables in the salon with no build out.

    The best advice is that no one should come to this particular store as it represents the worst experience of quality of food at this franchise in 32 years. The place is brand new yet unappealing. Out of the three entrees we ordered half of them were not cooked properly. We were starving and where only able to eat half of our food. It's funny because people come here only because there's really not many other choices around the immediate area as they even had closed down the close by tacos Al carbon store in a couple of blocks down recently so patrons don't have much of a choice for a 15 to 20 block distance of restaurants. Since Yelp has started and I opened my account this particular review is my worst recommendation of all time and that says a lot based upon my followers and being a foodie myself. The best advice is to go somewhere else until these guys get the act straight. I can only imagine what their corporate headquarters in Miami would say if they visited here they would shut them down immediately. I couldn't give less than one star so that's why it even has one star.

    I would not recommend this location. I ordered on the app and my order wasn't ready as promised nor had it been started. The associate handling my order clearly needed more training. She appeared confused. My order was prepared properly and the ingredients in the tropichop were plentiful. It even looked pretty! On the downside, the chicken was dry as a bone. This is the first time I've ever encountered this issue at Pollo Tropical. Thank God I had curry mustard to drown the chicken so it would be palatable. I probably wouldn't return to this location.

    I always come to this Pollo tropical the manager just told me I only get 10 croutons for a large chicken Caesar salad I can go right over here to Winn-Dixie and a whole bag cost $1.89 she gave me so I asked for another extracroutons she charge me a dollar and gave me 10 more croutons this is the most pathetic thing I've ever encountered at any restaurant the manager at this location today June 17 2024 8:45 PM i'm here at least once a day five days a week andover 10 croutons this lady manager here just lost a real good customer

    This is supposed to be a chicken wing.

    Of all the Pollo Tropical locations I have been to in Palm Beach County, this one needs the most help. It takes a lot for me to go out of my way to write something negative about a restaurant. I've had inconveniences at this place over the years, but it was never enough to really bother me. I ordered the wings as it was my favorite item from them back when they had it years ago. I was sad when the removed it. Getting to the point - I thought these were supposed to be fresh? I felt deflated after I saw the person take the wings out of the assembly line container that you see at a fast food burger place. How long were they sitting there? Yeah, I should have said something there. It was a to-go order. I also should have checked them on the spot. Shame on me that I didn't. I opened them up in my car and what I got looked old, stale, and burnt. It was the lunch rush hour. The line was near the door and it had already taken me a long time to get my order. I was so hungry I didn't have the energy to go back. YOLO. They were awful. You'll notice in the pictures I did eat four of five wings. If old and burnt chicken wings is your thing, order them from here. The fifth wing had no meat at all. The outside was cripsy and had a burnt shell of some sort. I poked it with my finger and it broke. Not edible at all. I filled out the complaint form on their website as well. I still like Pollo Tropical as a whole, but just not this location.

It was very busy, which I completely understand, but the woman taking my to-go order was unnecessarily rude and dismissive.

A little patience, professionalism, and courtesy goes a long way, even during a rush.

Followed by a hand hinting at the corner window seat. A Much appreciated gesture. Upon review, the menu was extremely legible and it didn't take long to decipher what our culinary path would be. We chose Brisket as our main, and enjoyed cornbread and mac n cheese both of which melted in your mouth with every bite. And tropical coleslaw added a bright twist to every crunch. Thank you! 5/5 PS the pickles were outstanding Ambiance was bright and airy inside and was a nice change from a typical smoky, dim-lit crouched in vibe of a traditional smoky palace.

See a card on the table to scan to order. Took us a bit to figure it out. We also wanted to order ribs to go for later. Couldn't find that as an option. Didn't want all the sides. Just ribs. Nobody came by seeing us take a while to order on our phones. Then we pay-. Food comes out fast but for $30 it's just ok because the portions were small. 4 slices of brisket. We're told when they drop off tray if we wanted sauce it's "over there" Up until we're finished and nobody comes to check on us. See if all is well. So - zero tip. Who are we tipping?? Sadly won't be back. Felt unfriendly. I have been wanting to come here for a while. Drove an hour. Customer service matters guys.

There were six fried shrimp in the order along with two flaky white fish fillets. They were perfectly cooked and served hot. We got both tartar and cocktail sauce. The seafood came with two corn fritters, as well. For our sides, we chose baked beans and coleslaw. The beans were just okay, but I really liked the coleslaw a lot. I also tried the macaroni salad and liked it too -- although a touch of salt would have been nice. We were very pleased with our lunch. It was enough to share with a drink and the added side.

But there's a connector behind the store to another lot that's easier to exit, and if you're quick on a takeout, you can probably park there too (before the tow truck comes). I was a Jon Smith virgin...until today! Can't tell you how many times I've passed this place heading to and from West Palm Beach/Palm Beach island. I thought it was mostly another cold sub place (which they have). Didn't realize steak is their thing. They do it well. You really can't get this quality of meat at other fast food spots. Had a footlong classic (steak, onions, cheese, mayo, + shredded lettuce). Was delicious. The meat tastes fresher and juicier than Subway. The bread/meat ratio was good. Came out quick. Stayed hot on a 20-minute drive home. FWIW, the seating/ambience is uninspiring. Seems pricey at over $15, but I definitely enjoyed the sub. May now try another sandwich or two, and the supposedly "famous" fries (claiming to be better than Five Guys?). Anyway, glad I finally satisfied my curiosity.
