    I went there at 12 In the afternoon and they didn’t have any curry sauce they never have any if I was the manager there I’d make sure I’d have enough of each sauce for a whole year it’s ridiculous and are you guys going to actually do something about it or just ignore the situation

    None of the employees at this location ever have a good attitude. The food sometimes can be dry. Because of that I try to avoid coming here but for a last minute option sometimes I will decide to get dinner here. But after picking up some food a few weeks ago (my 1st review didn't show publicly for some reason) I wont be back to this location. Maybe it's just my personal preference but I didn't find it sanitary for the employee to spary down the stove while chicken was out in the open like how it is in the photo, or with the food exposed behind him. In the photo you do not see the mist from the spary in the air but the mist was definitely taking over the air space. So I don't see how it wouldn't have made it on to the food around him. At that point I grew concern about what the food was exposed to as the employees were cleaning and serving food at the same time to go be able to go home at midnight (I was there an hour before closing). It was gross to say the least. I won't be back.

    If you ever wondered what it feels like to pay full price for half an order, or sometimes no order at all, this is the perfect spot for you. Three days ago, I ordered a platter — surprise, surprise, they forgot the beans. Yesterday, I thought maybe lightning wouldn’t strike twice, so I tried a boneless chicken platter. Guess what? They forgot the chicken. Imagine Pollo Tropical serving you a platter with no pollo. That’s like Starbucks selling you an empty cup and calling it a latte. When I went back to confront the manager (because who wouldn’t?), he admitted this time it was their mistake but claimed last time it was mine. Apparently, when I returned the entire package last time, he later “found the beans” in the bag. Maybe he has a side gig dumpster diving, who knows. And instead of apologizing, he doubled down and got rude. Bold strategy — rob customers of food, time, and money, then accuse them on top of it. Honestly, I should’ve called the cops for the little robbery going on here, but I decided not to waste any more of my life at this filthy place. I did call corporate though, so let’s see if they care enough to do anything or if this manager keeps running his comedy show. So yeah, if you enjoy paying for food that never arrives and being accused of lying about it, this is your spot. Otherwise, do yourself a favor and eat literally anywhere else. Also i think the managers name is Jose. He was in red Tshirt. If you guys had the same experience then please share it. This place doesn’t even deserve a 1 star TBH. I love pollo tropical but the management at this location is awful.
