When I went inside they were giving away 4 great coupon deals. I bought a ¼ chicken meal for $2.99! (And a picture with the Pollo Tropical Chicken). You can't find that good of a deal anywhere else.

I saw the sign on my commute in this morning. Great news for us Tunnel folks- Pollo Tropical is awesome!

I thought the chicken was ok (just charred chicken, not marinated) but the tatziki sauce was awful. The best chicken souvlaki is definitely Gene's coffee shop on 60th and Madison. Excellent.

I often pick up a 1/2 chicken and a whole rack of ribs for dinner at home. I personally think it's a little better than the one on 43rd and 9th.

If I'm not mistaken PT expanded into the NY metro area last year so let's hope a move to Midtown is in the works!

I think their food is relatively decent, but my favorite part is the sides. And the meatloaf. I don't think their cornbread is very good...but I'll take what I can get. Good cornbread is a rare find in NYC. I’m sure you realize this, but Boston Market is a nationwide chain (including a few NYC locations).
