Chicken Caesar salad with a rancid straw wrapper

I ordered food to takeout on 6/08/2026 at 11:16 am. After I've already arrived at my home I realized that the restaurant forgot to put chicken on the chicken Caesar salad. I came back later in the afternoon at 5:45 and the manager agreed to remake my order. After already eating some of it I noticed that there was a rancid straw wrapper... literally garbage in my food. The manager agreed to refund my order, but did not offer any other compensation. I recommend skipping this place and eating somewhere else. Absolutely disgusting quality of food and service.

I ordered ahead using there app. Two cars in the drive through which moved fast. The employees was friendly. Parking lot was empty and minimal people inside around 6pm. I would return and best part about ordering ahead is they have rewards.

fought traffic to finally get to pollo tropical in Royal palm starving ordered two tropichops crispy chicken avocado white rice black beans and there was a rubberband in the food if I could rate negative stars I would lobby was dirty they were behind on the grilled chicken line was long inside and drive through

Found hair in food. Also terrible wait times.

Tastey chicken, great sauces. The family meal is our go to on Friday nights but it used to be a lot more affordable.

Service was good, food was what we expected, and I would stop at one of these again in the future.

Food was amazing!! Best burger I've ever had, service was amazing As well, big shoutout to Jamie ,…read moreworks very hard, and quickly, and always make sure customers are satisfied. Overall great experience!

3/25/26- 12:40pm- I was referred to Hausmash by fellow Elite Yelper's! I am so glad I came over…read moretoday! First off the Groovy Cheese Double Smash burger was delicious! Now, let's talk about the actual restaurant . You pass through a beautiful patio thoughtfully secluded by greenery! I appreciate the attention to detail. So many fast casual restaurants and cafe's just put out a few tables and you literally feel like you're the Valet! You're practically in the parking lot! This is private and completely shaded! Once you enter the restaurant you are warmly greeted by Camila. It's spotless and almost mid century modern feel! I love it! Great music and they even have chairs and barstools that are cushioned and comfortable! It's easy to read the menu options and easy to order! FYI it's card only- no cash... I ordered the Groovy Cheese Double with extra cheese and hold the pickles! It comes with caramelized onions! Finally an establishment that understands how important the right hamburger roll is! This is absolutely delicious! It held up perfectly with a double cheeseburger! I'm in love! They serve it on a metal tray! Love the industrial design! Easy to clean! Great idea! I opened the paper to find a little magical piece of burger heaven! Wow! I almost cried! I found the side service area which had the mini paper salt and pepper and packets of ketchup! The self serve cold water is a nice addition! I opened my s&p packet and then to the dreaded ketchup packets. I never got the hang of these. More on my fingers than on my burger. More about this later.. I cut it in half with the plastic knife and ate the entire huge smash burger! Absolutely delicious! Especially the roll! I do wish there were more onions on it. The restaurant is beautiful! Spotless and comfortable! Even the rest rooms are beautiful!! As a former F&B Director and Restaurant owner I have a few suggestions. If I'm paying $12.00 + for a burger in a fast casual restaurant, I would appreciate and expect actual ketchup bottles and S&P shakers. Please Don't "McDonalds" your customers. Even if you display them on your self service counter. Also, this is just a personal preference, since you offer canned beer is your liquor license also for wine? If possible, I would also offer wine. Just my preference. I highly recommend! I will definitely be back!

I had the worst customer service experience at this location today. I stopped here before work…read morebecause I was craving a hash-brown. Literally ONE hash-brown. I pulled up to order and the drive thru was pretty busy with at least 4 cars in line before me. However, it did not take long for me to reach the call box to place my order. I was greeted by the usual automated service that asks if you want to use the McDonald's app and when I declined, I heard an employees voice who took my order for the one hash brown. Then that employee let me know to drive around. As I drove around to the first window, I noticed that the car in front of me did not stop at the window, but proceeded to pull up to the second window, which is usually for pick up. I waited at the first window where payment is made for a few minutes and realized that no employee was approaching the window, so I assumed maybe they were taking payment and giving out the food at the same window this morning. As I approached the second window where you would pick up food there was a female employee standing there giving me a very nasty look. I was handing her my credit card and stated that I was paying for my order and she again rolled her eyes and told me I needed to go back. Very confused I asked her: "you want me to back up in the drive-thru?" ... I was apprehensive about this because again, it's early in the morning and the drive-thru was just busy. She motioned with her hands for me to back up, which I did, and as I sat the first payment window once again, no employee could be found. I began to blow my horn, which continued to be ignored (At this point I was about to be late for work for a single hands-brown ABSURD!). An employee did not come to the window until a line began to form behind me from people who had just placed orders at the call box. Again, I am handing my card to the employee to make payment and they are looking at me confused. She asked me what my order was AGAIN and I told her that I had ordered one hash brown already at the call box and had pulled back to pay for that hash brown. She took my payment and I proceeded to the second pick up window again. As I approached the window the second time the same female employee with the VERY NASTY attitude, continued to stare with no acknowledgment to me whatsoever. She shoves a bag out the window at me, (which was still the wrong order). To my luck there was a hash-brown in the bag so I just pulled off to avoid further confrontation. I will not be back to this location.

Yesterday I placed an order for a McChicken and did the drive through. I think the employees told…read moreme to go to the wrong window and I ended up having to wait maybe five minutes. They gave me the wrong order and also the car behind me had to hand the food bag back to them, so there was a lot of confusion. Eventually I got my McChicken and it was hot and tasty. The ladies who helped me were also nice. Just recommend they check with the customers to make sure they give them the correct food.

This is my favorite restaurant ... ever. My family of 4 can eat a full, delicious meal for less…read morethan $50 in a sit down restaurant (which is hard now a days!) We especially love the buffalo, kickin Kay Lynn and my personal favorite is the lemon basil. Also get pimento cheese every now and then (this pic is from the holiday season!)

We had an excellent lunch here. Staff is pleasant, patient, and helpful. And the food is fresh and…read moretasty. We had been to another of their restaurants before in Coral Springs and liked it. My husband is a veteran and saw they were offering a meal in support of Veteran's Day. (Thank you for doing this!) We decided to try this location. I got their "scoop" of Kelli -- which is chicken salad with almonds and cranberries. It is slightly sweet and the nuts add crunch. It comes with wheat crackers and a yummy iced cookie for dessert. You have your choice of sides. I got their Mac n cheese -- served hot -- which was okay, but did not pair that well with a cold "salad". Next time I'd get their pasta salad, I think. A gal stopped by to clear our table and was nice enough to get me a lid/cover for my Mac n cheese container (taking it home for later consumption) as well as a bag. My husband had a similar meal but enjoyed the grape salad as his side. Just as a note, the ladies room was spotless and had some of the cutest signs displayed on the walls. We will definitely return here. Just wish there were some closer locations on the east side.
