    4 Crispy Tenders Meal with Large Fries
    Alexis H.

    The chicken tenders and fries were served hot. The garlic sauce is delicious. I appreciate the soda bit coming out of a freestyle machine so the coke actually tastes like coke. The new red velvet cookie is not overly sweet and makes a great treat. The cashiers were nice and the service was fast in the drive thru.

    I like to think of PDQ as an elevated fast food chain that always delivers on its promise of fast, affordable, and delicious food! I usually go through their drive through but this time around we decided to dine in and enjoy our food inside! The inside is very spacious and has a nice relaxed vibe to the place that is hard to find in most other fast food chains. The workers were nice, friendly, and very welcoming as well! Nuggets were juicy and the waffle fries were nice and crispy (I actually like their waffle fries better than the more popular Chick-fil-A fries because of their crispiness). If you're going to eat at PDQ, you needdddd to give their fried zucchini fries. They're crispy and bursting with flavor. I will say, sometimes they can be on the oily side but those times are few and far between. When they're cooked well they are absolutely delicious and a must-try! PDQ is my go-to fast food chain when I'm wanting something quick, easy, and delicious! So glad I have this location on the way home from work, it has definitely solved my dinner problem numerous times after going through a long, hard day at work. I'm positive I'll be back here again soon!!

    I went through the drive through my first time a little confused because no one was there And had to drive back around I ordered the honey butter chicken sandwich With hand crafted lemonade (why do they even offer two) and 2 cookies. The sandwich was great. I will just add hot sauce to it next time. I tried the pdq sauce and siracha. They were both mayo based and it was too heavy. The sandwich was perfect with no sauce, i just needed a little kick in there somewhere the sandwich was leaning towards the sweet side. Towards the end I bit into some fat and rubbery parts but the sandwich was phenomenal. I loved the waffle fries phenomenal its better than chickfila because they have a perfect amount of salt The cookies cran oatmeal and chocolate chunk were not good to me because they seemed pretty raw and uncooked I would recommend Sorry no pics I ate so quick on the way to work

    I came here today because I had a buy one get one free coupon. I hadn't been here in a long time so I thought I'd try it again. I got five crunchy chicken tenders and five grilled chicken tenders. And they were delicious. I got the zucchini fries They gave you a lot of them but they were heavy breaded and a over seasoned, salty and greasy. The combo meal comes with chicken a side and a drink. I got the side salad with lemon vinaigrette dressing. Nothing special. Bag salad with a few tomatoes cucumbers and cheese. The meal also came with two pieces of garlic toast that were not very good. They do however have a spectacular drink selection. A digital machine with just about every type of drink you can imagine. I stood there for a good 3 minutes tasting everything. One of the workers came over and said did you find what you needed I said there's so much to choose from like a kid in a candy store. So besides the chicken I think the drinks was the greatest thing about this restaurant. A five-piece chicken strip with one side and a drink runs a little over $12 I might come back one day.

    Stopped for lunch , ordered the spicy deluxe meal. It was my first time having their spicy deluxe and I think it's better than CFA's. The chicken was huge and the toppings were so cold , as they should be. Delicious! The waffle fries were also nice and crispy & the Oreo shake was good too

    Strong four or more. So I like me some PDQ, especially on Sundays though I don't actually think I've done them on a Sunday now that I think about it. lol Umn, at first, there was something about the sandwiches I wasn't entirely too fond of, was a faint hit of sage or oregano or mace or something I could never really put my finger on. Anyway, was the only thing keeping me from Loving them, but I do. Super friendly, Love the interesting offerings, and usually enjoy everything I've ever had. I like this location, easy in and easy out to the Greenway when visiting the parental units. Love that hand crafted, lol, lemonade. Good stuff, that. Took the teen there this last time in, got the seal of approval. lol

    First time visiting a PDQ! Great experience. We happened to come on Monday. When ordering the young lady at the register told me it was buy one get one combos! So for less than $10 we both got a meal that consisted of a sandwich, fries and drink. We ordered the crispy chicken sandwich and honey butter sandwich. Both were very good. The fries remained crispy even after they cooled off! The staff was very friendly and the service was great! We also tried their peanut butter milkshake (bc we had only spent $10) that was sooo good! It's a great deal to get 2 meals and a shake for $15 total!

    I got a Free birthday meal for being a PDQ member. There's something about the chicken tenders that I love. They're crispier than most other competitors. The waffle fries they sell are also super crispy and not too salty. Great spot for great chicken!

Today I went with the half chicken which comes with white rice, black beans, and sweet plantains. The chicken was falling off the bone, tender, juicy, and hot. You get a lot of rice and beans too so you're not leaving hungry and the sweet plantains make a great little dessert at the end. On top of all that, I always try every side of salsa, hot sauce, and dressing they have, so I'm super stuffed; I couldn't have asked for a better meal. The staff are always friendly and efficient. I put my order in turned around to get my drink and 20 seconds later the pager was already ringing in my pocket. I didn't even have time to load up all my condiments and get a table before my food was ready, now that's crazy fast! The restaurant is well kept and they have lowered the overall volume of the music in the dining room which I appreciate. I just can't believe this place isn't busier on a Saturday at dinner time. Even with great reviews this isn't a good sign; regardless, I will continue coming back to support them when I keep getting great meals like these at this affordable price point. Thank you La Granja, keep up the great work, I'll be back for more of your delicious food soon!

It's a quick-serve concept where you can order at the counter or go through the drive thru. My friend and I opted to eat at the restaurant. We walked right up the counter and placed our orders. Our food came out while we were still getting our drinks before we even had a chance to get a table! The dining room is large with booths and tables. I ordered a trio with a scoop of fancy Nancy, a scoop of buffalo barcaly and broccoli salad. Each trio comes with a pickle and cookie. For $15, it's a great deal. The food at this location is always fresh and consistent.

I ordered a scoop of the Fancy Nancy . It's advertised that it comes with apples, grapes, and pecans. Upon entering the location, the first thing that I noticed was an odd, almost moldy smell. Maybe it was new carpet? I'm not sure, but it was a little off-putting. The decor is cute and welcoming and it was very clean. I was greeted immediately, given my order,and thanked. The scoop came in a small cup with several packs of crackers. The flavor was good and it tasted fresh, however there was only 1 piece of apple, 2 grapes, and 1 pecan. I realize it was only one scoop but I expect a little more fruit. There menu has lots of choices and I will give it another try in the future.

    We were very impressed with this Pollo Tropical location!…read moreThe staff are friendly, and they are always working hard all day to bring the best service to the guests. The front cashier was very professional and patient since we've never been to this chain. Plus since my doctor said no rice or beans for me, the staff were great. The chicken and sides were fresh. Incredible taste! The flan was slightly dated but great for a chain. Very loud in here but you can see them cooking so it's understandable. Bathroom could use a lot of cleaning! Very good location to eat, and it has Free Wifi!

    We had such a fantastic experience at Pollo Tropical in Sanford that I had to share!…read more From the moment we walked in, everything felt fresh, fast, and flavorful. The aroma of citrus-marinated chicken on the grill hits you immediately -- and it absolutely delivers. The chicken was juicy, perfectly seasoned, and grilled to smoky perfection. The rice was fluffy, the beans were rich and savory, and the plantains were caramelized just right. Every bite tasted vibrant and intentional. But what really made the experience stand out was Gabriel at the front register. He was knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly accommodating. He answered our questions confidently, made helpful suggestions, and ensured our order was exactly right. You can tell he genuinely cares about the customer experience -- and that kind of service makes all the difference. It's rare to find fast-casual that feels this consistent and this welcoming. Clean restaurant, efficient service, great energy, and food that actually tastes homemade. We'll absolutely be back.

Young girl at the register was nice, tall cook with gotee and baseball cap, NOT so friendly. He didn't say my name correctly which is ok. However, when I went to retrieve my food, eyes locked in, big smile on my face (I was hungry, lol) , and said thank you - death look. No expression, no - your welcome, enjoy, etc. I was hesitant to even say this but this is what this platform is for.. borderline racist as he was nice to other people of lighter skin ); . Just made me feel not welcomed at all. I even said thank you twice. Sometimes kitchens can be a little loud and I can understand if he didn't hear me the first time,, but I know he saw my lips move as we were looking right at each other... Anyway. Overall food was good, a little pricey for a sandwich, fries and a can soda though. For nearly $22 you can eat at sit down restaurant, have quality food and be served with sit down experience. Overall I'd come back as I know what to expect from this location. I've visited another location on LEE RD for to-go but I was in and out... I had the Daily Cheesesteak special. $16.95. I added a cheese sauce $1.30. All together 21.36 total.

    It's obvious that people mistake quantity for quality when they are writing reviews for this…read morerestaurant. Is the sandwich loaded with a large quantity of meat?? Absolutely Yes!!! Is the quality of the meat product of totally sub-par?? Again.... Absolutely Yes!! So much meat that it's falling out of the bun, yet it tastes like that low budget freezer burnt steakumms product that they sell at Walmart and Winn Dixie. Definitely not fit to eat and when I offered it to my dog, I couldn't even get him to taste it. He sniffed it and just turned his head away. Absolutely wouldn't touch it! This is, by far, the worst Cheesesteak that I've ever experienced. The flavor closely resembles the taste and texture of the tires that they sell next door at the Tuffy's Tire & Lube Center. They even overcooked the fries, I couldn't throw it away fast enough. Save your money and your digestive system... Eat Elsewhere
