good cheap food. The food at pollo tropical is a change from normal fast food. Who wants a burger when I can eat a ¼ Chicken Value Meal with 2 sides for $ 3.99. The food is a lot healthier for you, too.

Quick Easy, Consistant, Food - Great Price. When I moved to Orlando I was a bit skeptical of eating at Pollo Tropical, as I had heard the food was so-so. Well decided to find out for myself and I am glad I did! This is the best fast food around, its healthy in comparison to many of the other options and it is priced right. I would recommend the "Tropichop" with chicken white rice and beans, with the curry mustard sauce. Its a great place to be in and out in 10 minutes for under $5.

Like the McDonalds of Caribbean cuisine, this fast-food chain is best known for its marinated chicken on the grill.. In Short
Diners sit at rattan tables and dig into traditional Latin foods at this eatery awash in pastels. Order up front, then eat-in or take out fast food made a little bit slower--but a lot more healthy and just as inexpensive. The menu's signature TropiChops, with pulled pork, shredded beef or grilled chicken atop rice, beans and vegetables, are a steal. Family meals packed with whole chickens, ribs and more, also offer more bang for the buck. Don't pass up the condiment bar, stocked with chopped onions, fresh salsa and a curry mustard that perfectly pairs with a side of fried yuca. Additional extras include sweet plantains, crispy tostones, tangy balsamic tomatoes and traditional rice and beans.
