    Below is what you call potato wedges. Hahahaha what a joke. Never again. How can someone give this to a pick up customer knowing they won't find out till they get home, at that point tent won't return. Real smart.

    Not sure why people waste their money coming to a place where there is flys over the food and the service is not taken seriously. They love to mess around and banter instead of working on your meal. I've waited here for over 30 minutes just for a meal when there was no one in the restaurant. Horrible location not sure how they stay in business.

    I work in the area and had an hour break so I decided to stop here while on break because I was craving pollo tropical and I am glad I did. This location however can get insane when it comes to waiting around because it gets so busy during lunch time from all the offices around the area. I was going to drive thru but a coworker told me they wait FORTY FIVE MINUTES once and I decided to park and go in because when I was there the line was insane for the drive thru. The interior was nicely decorated and it was very clean from the little bit of it that I saw. The open kitchen was cool to see because you could tell they kept that area clean as well. I was a little confused because so many people were standing around so for a few moments I had no idea where the line started and ended to place an order for food. After finding it, I waited to get called while I looked at the menu. I decided to get the mojo pork with rice and beans. To my surprise it also came with a little bread roll. The roll was generic but soft and it was great to sop up some bean sauce with. The rice was very nicely cooked and had the right amount of chewy to it and wasn't too sticky like other places. The beans were seasoned nicely but nothing to write home about. My only thing that upset me was the mojo pork could've been drained a little more because it was very oily at the bottom of the container they put it in so I didn't eat all of it because of that reason. A nice location and good prices, I will probably come here again on break if I am craving it again, however I wouldn't go out of my way unless I was doing a mobile pickup so I can beat the line and save some break time.

    2 stars because the chicken is good. Otherwise they do not provide all items you ordered. Recently ordered 2 meals 1 half chicken and 1 boneless, the boneless chicken breast was not in the bag. Also one of the sides was fries but I got yucca instead.

    I asked for green sauce and got a bunch of red sauce

    How disappointing. Only two people in line and the woman taking the order standing up with the iPad couldn't even even get mine right. I came Friday may 3rd around 1 pm, told this woman that I wanted the family meal with extra Verde sauce, green sauce, and she supplied me with extra red sauce, which I didn't ask for. When I opened up the bag there were a bunch of spilled black beans everywhere. It's almost as if they did it on purpose, such a turn off

    Good bread and tasty, but sandwich was hot in some places and cold in others! Uneven!!!!

    I was so looking forward to this! Service was very slow and uneven inside. Parts of my Chicken Cuban Sandwich were hot and other parts were cold. I asked for extras sauce... meaning the mustard-mayo sauce! I got salsa instead. The place could use a good cleaning! My sandwich was good... would be GREAT hot!! I'll try again!

    Pollo Bites - basically boneless wings not sauced up. I eat it with BBQ sauce.

    This Pollo location is right by my office. The line is very fast and not busy at all. The chicken here recently is always fresh and the employees seem happy to help. This is a big deal for drive thrus. Sometimes you go to a fast food drive thru burger joint and the guys ear and nose hairs are a mile long. PS - try the "Pollo Bites" it's like Boneless wings Update: Pollo lost a star for putting in the wrong sauce. I asked for Curry Mustard & got salsa. The Salsa is great and may get it again!

    Ordered chicken. It came dry and burnt. Looks like it's days old chicken. Called customer service and I'm still on hold 13 minutes and counting. Disgusting service.

    The food is very fresh, the chicken turnaround time is so fast that it's practically made to order…read more Not pictured are the pies we had for dessert which are also very delicious and freshly made! I would definitely recommend trying both the ube and the mango flavors. Inside is spacious and clean with lots of seating available and ordering is very easy and quick to do.

    Wanted to try something new so we decided on Jollibees. I did read the reviews before hand, some I…read moreagree with and some I don't. First I agree that they do seem a bit disorganized. As I waited for my meal I observed how they operated. They had maybe 3-4 cooks preparing the food. And 3 up front trying to fix the orders to go out. I did get helped through the line fairly quickly, but after that I think I waited at least 15 minutes or so before my to go order was ready. As I waited I noticed all three workers that were behind the counter were filling the orders, but not one of them took the time to notice not one, but two customers that were waiting in line to place their order for quite some time. I did notice them turn around and look at them after they had been waiting for a good 5 minutes or so, but even then no one stopped to take their orders. Finally from the back a young man comes over to help them, but only after he took his time changing out the receipt paper. Once I received my to go order and took it home I couldn't wait to see how it tasted because most of the reviews said the food was good. Well, that's where I disagree. My "spicy"chicken sandwich had no taste. Very bland and the meat was crunchy instead of juicy. The fries were very greasy and my husband's Mac and cheese and rice were un edible. We tried the mango pies and they were ok, but not good enough for us to ever return. I can easily cross them off my list of places to try

    Hard pass. Exceptionally rude woman who didn't even give me what came with my bowl. Didn't ask me…read morethe type of rice I wanted just shoved something I don't even eat. Next, she was rude when I (who already told her I was a first time customer) LAUGHED out loud when I asked if the guac was extra. She's like everything's extra (even though it CAME WITH MY BOWL I LATER SAW). If that's how you feel and you're not clear to begin with, then why work there? As I stood there, she gave me dirty looks and treated me like a second class citizen. I had only been respectful with her and she even tried to argue with me. Almost reeked of prejudice and like she's looking to take her pent up aggression out on someone. Like good lord, she should not work in this industry. She didn't give me the things that came with my bowl, had to ask, got an attitude (like OMG she's not even kind after you've paid the bill) and made me feel throughout like I was burden. If you're reading this and want to save your business (because clearly any business charging extra for wilted lettuce and a dash of cut tomatoes is), then she needs to stop working there. She's actually NOT helping at all.

What a shame. No smiles.
