Pollo Tropical

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pollo Tropical (which literally means Tropical Chicken in Spanish) is a Miami-based fast food restaurant chain specializing in Caribbean food. Pollo Tropical is owned and operated by Carrols Corporation.

The chain has over 60 company owned restaurants in Florida and more than 20 franchised units throughout Latin America and the Caribbean. Pollo Tropical is planning an aggressive expansion opening new locations in New York, New Jersey and the west coast of Florida.

It is best known for its marinated and grilled chicken served with black beans and rice. Some common side dishes are french fries, salads, plantain, and fried yuca.

While the chain is considerd "Fast Food" they are well known for holding higher standard of quality.

For a time some locations in central Florida were branded "TropiGrill" but these have since been renamed Pollo Tropical.

[edit] History

The first Pollo Tropical restaurant opened in November 1988 in Miami.
