Chicken Restaurants near North Miami Beach

“I had an excellent experience at Pollo Tropical thanks to Ivan at the cash register. He was incredibly friendly and attentive, making the ordering process smooth and enjoyable. Ivan greeted every customer with a warm smile and was knowledgeable about the menu, helping me choose the perfect meal. His efficiency and positive attitude truly enhanced my visit. I appreciate great service, and Ivan delivered just that! Highly recommend visiting when he’s on duty!“

“Fantástico, meu sonho de fast food, quando estive em Miami provei e constatei o saber do alimento. Não tem igual.“

“Excelente atención de las vendedoras“

“I’ve come to this restaurant twice and ordered the same thing. (I like to make sure what I call order isn't a “hit or miss,” so I want to order it 2-3 times to ensure it's good.)

1st time was my own, and 2nd time was when I recommended it to my friends and family.

I told them, let's get the “Mad fries.” they loved it and wanted to come back… not only that, but it's worth the money. It's a nice big plate you can share with one person, and I'm a big guy. I am satisfied with half, so it's worth the price.

Now, the only reason I rate four stars is because I can't rate 4 1/2. It's a fantastic restaurant with great food, excellent customer service, and affordable pricing. You can taste and feel the authenticity of this place.

But their drinks are a little out of taste. The fountain drinks either lack gas or syrup, have too much syrup, or taste weird. Their drinks, like lemonade and juices, are also lacking in taste. The cups are huge, but we can definitely say size doesn't matter if the soda tastes weird. ?

Overall, it's a great place and worth the try. I hope you guys enjoy it!

Parking: They have a small parking lot next to them going down on south federal Highway, but right next to them is a pizza spot called “John” or “Jim” Pizza. I can't recall the name, but I sometimes park there since service is typically fast.“

“Michael was very attentive and informative, loved the service he provided. The buffalo chicken sandwich had great flavor. I feel the waffles taste like pancakes the texture is very soft and fluffy. The chicken tender was very light in flavor. Presentation was on point.“

“This restaurant is very good. It has many different Peruvian dishes and they are very good for the price and delicious. I always go to this restaurant before I go to my Kung Fu class. Add grilled chicken with fries, rice and beans or lomo saltado. Yely always serves me well and is always friendly.“

“screwed up my order royally, but still good food. only the second day opened, so give them time to get it right.“

“The restaurant is nice for families . The chicken was delicious . The fries were salty. The
Southern sweet tea advertisement was not that all. I purchased two drinks but was home could not return. They both tasted awful. The coleslaw was just ok . People were friendly.“

“Amazing service and team is absolutely amazing“

“They give you the whole wing and it's fried right. Desert's be off the chain and oh so good. The couch is always fresh and the wait isn't long and staff treats you like a person and don't let me forget about the slushies in all types of favors.“

“Good morning. Last night at the Dania Beach location you had some technical difficulties. The team member at the first window was super nice, accommodating, and very hospitable. He rest assured that everything will be fine drive up to the next window. The next team member was just as AWESOME. So awesome that I asked for both of their names for a review. Mike even took an extra second to go get the name of his team member that I encountered first. Milley or Mellie please forgive me for the spelling. Please acknowledge them for exceptional service!“

“Food is always on point! Employees are decent as well. PDQ is light years better than all other chicken places!!! Period. I once ordered on the app for pickup, but when I got there had to wait - they gave me a coupon for 3 free tenders! Love PDQ.

Parking: Usually not busy, so plenty of parking if drive-thru is busy.“

“love the food reminds me of the Philippines“

“good production of getting people through drive thru“

“Love the place amazing chicken tenders“

“Disclaimer: I am not the audience for ordering food and picking it up from a box without interacting with human beings. I'm not there yet. So although I'd heard of Soulfly, I wasn't particularly interested in visiting. Nevertheless, was celebrating my mom's birthday and the birthday girl wanted to come here after our wine tasting next door.

I'm glad the experience was not as impersonal as I anticipated. Partly because I just didn't feel like sticking to the script but also I couldn't get that doggone pickup situation together. LOL I had so many issues with the code to retrieve my order, it was seriously comical. I did observe others come in, put in the code, get the food and go though.

You do have to order on the kiosk but I was able to ask the manager if I could order it like this or that, which he happily made note of for my particular order. There was a little wait for having ordered onsite - things would have felt quicker had I ordered online from offsite then stopped in to pickup when notified the order was ready. I had the wings and cajun rice. Now what surprised me was that chicken! Ok, Soulfly! Very nicely seasoned, good crisp on the outside and juicy on the inside. I was impressed considering my expectations. It reminded me of those good chinese takeout chicken wings. Nice surprise. The cajun rice was just okay for me.

The challenges to me coming back are that the price is just high for what you get. I understand there is a cost for "convenience" so it is what it is. However adding $6.54 to the order when I had to do the work to place it then pick it up is.... I don't and won't mind continuing to do things the old school way to pay a more reasonable price for fried chicken in other nearby neighborhoods. Also, no "convenient" parking. I feel like this spot is more geared towards people strolling on the street or for food delivery drivers who will be on a moped only.

Overall for the chicken and helpfulness of the onsite staff, I give it a 3.5, not just a 3.“

“This has to be the TOP Pollo Tropical in all of South Florida. The lines for drive thru are always around the corner, if you can find parking get off and order inside. The chicken is ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS 20+ years I’ve eaten here, fresh of the grill. I think because of the volume of guests near airport that have to keep cooking all day long. The food is so good, beans, rice, plantains, even the dessert is yummy. Thank you for offering great prices and quality food to the community!!!“

“The flavor … oh the flavor. Their cuisine is prestige! We had the Jones n’ Hot Chicken sandwich which was so full of flavor with a kick of just right amount of spice; the jalapeño fries were the bomb and last but definitely not least the sweet potato biscuit is to die for! These biscuits melt in your mouth. So good, I had to bring some back to Houston with me. I highly recommend Chick N’ Jones you won’t be disappointed.“

“I recommend the place, very nice, the service is incredible, both the cashier and the waitress serve you very well.

Parking: There is a park or large space

Kid-friendliness: Yeah

Wheelchair accessibility: Yeah“

“This Pollo location is my favorite. The employees are always so fabulously friendly. They cater to your every need. No order or customization is too far fetched, or unattainable. AND THEY ARE ALWAYS IN STOCK OF ALL SAUCES! The chicken is juicy and tastes like it was made fresh just for me. I go at least twice a month. Thank you to the management and team!“

“i ordered me a grilled chicken sandwhich its juicy & tender...taste better than popeyes chicken sandwhich with less fat & soduim #muscleteam“

“I love pollo but instead of the cool island music they used to play I hear a bunch of loud noise from the heavy ass metal chairs everyone drags, very annoying, the sauce bar they used to have was better than the plastic containers the sauces are put in which are so bad for the planet.“

“A very pleasant experience. My tropichop with crispy chicken and avocado was delicious. The place was super clean, but what left me most pleasantly surprised was the excellent service of its employees. Everyone is very attentive, friendly and makes the customer feel very comfortable. Eduardo and Maria are excellent at taking the order super fast, and with a smile. Iliana and Rony were also very attentive. Thanks for everything!“

“the food is delicious, I love the fried chicken. Yummmie“

“The manager Diana gives the best 👌🏿 customer service experience. I travel from Fort lauderdale to Hollywood because of the wonderful customer service. The food is good restaurant is always clean. Other employees are very friendly and helpful. I love this Pollo Tropical 💜“

“The Hot Honey Chicken is a hit!!!“

“We've always had outstanding service when we visit any Chickfila but this one truly is the best!!!! Impeccable service, food is cooked perfect and the staff and management are beyond friendly!!!!!“

“Chicken was good but the dirty rice was not The rice was not done it have no taste. Mac & cheese need to be cook more it was to watery. I don’t know what happen with this Popeyes you all usually have GREAT MAC & CHEESE. I don’t know why I pick that rice I should have stay with my mind RED BEANS & RICE!!!“

“Food is still the same old school of breaded seared chicken. Best feature? They use real chicken. We found KFC's offers to be too salty. Fries are extremely salty. Chicken is salty as well but gets disguised by the breaded spices mix. The staff is excellent ?. The environment is very cozy and quiet. Kids have a great time here even though they also complain about the salty food.

Vegetarian options: Limited options

Parking: Limited parking spots on busy days“

“As soon as walked in, a cashier named Karen took my order. Karen is such a sweet person. I ordered fried chicken. Karen told me that my food will be ready in an half an hour. So I waited in my car. To my surprise before I could get out of my car to get my food, Karen hand delivered my food to my car with a huge smile on her face. Because of her customer service, I will be back. I forgot to mention that the chicken was delicious and it is Halal. Thanks Krispy Krunchy Chicken.“

“They didn't have any crunchy's chicken I would have had to wait 6 minutes so I got something else and the young lady said it was 10:05 and when she gave me the money she gave me a different kind of meals at a cheaper price. So I saved money. I appreciate that. I miss KFC wings so much. She informed me they have whole wings now. I will have to try that. I haven't had a goodwing since KFC stopped selling wings“

“The food is good but the people is a different story, I when to purchase a 14 piece meal for my kids and my self. and I was doing a favor for a friend, since I was going for my self, as he asked me to buy for her a 5 piece meal, everything was OK until a lady came to the register ( think it was the manager) I was using a coupon for each of the meals, I explained to her that one was for my home and the other one was for a friend but she kept saying I only can used one, again I explained that it was not for me the small meal why I'm going to get a 5 piece of I already was getting 14 pieces. just make to separate orders, but this small minded woman keep repeating her self that I can't, if my friend was there she still will have to do a second order... So no I will not recommend the location on 54st Northwest between 12th and 11th Avenue. they are rude and unprofessional... The old manager, was a kind an friendly lady. Train your management more than your cashiers... Their title goes over the heads. I'm going to Boston Market... even Popeyes is better...“

“I love the churches chicken. Thank you for blessings my mom, myself, my husband and our children plus more with this food. Continue to provide exceptional food service and customer service for everyone. The good was great all my children will have a perfect church as well. Thank you again.“

“As most Popeyes the food is good. Always just right and quick. This location is not the easiest to enter on a tight corner but worth the squeeze in. They are helpful with your selection, with fast service.

Parking: Fast drive threw“

“This was my first time trying Honduran food and I was pleasantly surprised ..I ordered the pollo frito ceibeño ( fried chicken) wow the flavors are amazing and the overall seasoning of the chicken was the right balance of salty and crunchy , also have to mention the Service was top notch I don’t speak Spanish and they were very helpful in the ordering process…. Lastly the price point is definitely affordable for anyone…this will be one of my go too restaurants here in Miami ..5 Stars“

“We love Krispy Kruncy Chicken! This location has halal meat (certification displayed!) which is wonderful. We love their chicken tenders and biscuits. The location is not traditional inside a gas station, however it's well worth the fantastic flavorful chicken.“

“I love this place and I always come for their fried chicken! They currently have a licensing issue and so they're not serving chicken at the moment but they do have pastries. The staff are very kind. I'm hoping the chicken comes back 🤞“

“Stick to your bones and healthy as well. Great price.“

“Awesome hospitality and manager Carol is always lightens up my day. Serve within 5 minutes after placing order.“

“Quick Service and & Friendly Employees 😀“

“I stopped by Pollo Tropical for a quick meal. Everything smelled so good, the place was clean everyone was very friendly. The food tasted very good and the pumpkin spice cheesecake was excellent. Thanks everyone ?? keep up the excellent work!“

“I had a very pleasant experience at Pembroke Lakes Mall thanks to a young man working at one of the fast food restaurants. He was polite, kind, and had an excellent attitude. Always with a bright smile that gave off great energy. Honestly, it’s rare to find such good service in fast food places, so I felt it deserved to be recognized. 10/10! When things are done well, they should be acknowledged. 👏🏼“

“I was impressed.Maybe the food was fresh, or the cook was just good, but it seemed much better than big chains like KFC/Popeyes.-same price or cheaper.-freshly cooked chicken, shrimp, and other variations-same wait time but worth itNot sure exactly what this company does, but it's giving more and doing something much better than the others.“

“Went to KFC on Sunday August 24 after church. I was met with the most professional and accommodating young man. His name is Jamel (spelling ??) He was very professional and polite. It was very refreshing. Thanks Jamil (spelling ??) for making my visit to KFC a pleasant one.“

“I stopped here because police were routing traffic into their parking lot and drive thru around an accident. I ended up getting stranded in the parking lot. The manager was nice enough to let me just roll through the drive thru, so I decided to at least buy a Chocolate Cookie Cake. Just wanted to show my thanks for letting me use the drive through to get around the accident.“

“The service was excellent, fast and friendly. Our food was delicious. They also recommend the chocolate cake and it was great for dessert.“

“This is THE BEST Pollo Tropical I have ever been to. The customer service is Amazing. But even better than that the chicken was tender cooked thoroughly and juicy marinated very flavorful and the brown rice is perfect. I still can believe the chicken was so amazing. I will definitely see if I can go to this location from now on. My coworker said the same thing and Pollo is his favorite place to buy food. When we went there we were not expecting this because we eat a pollo often all over Florida and Georgia when traveling. It’s the best flavor we both tasted of all of them we have visit. Accommodation to the Chef…. And the team who prepares the food.“

“If I can put more than 5 stars I would I’m from NYC and had to come down here to get the best food in the hallander area hands down the service Jennifer and Rosalia were the best in service. I will definitely come back they are very pleasant and welcoming love the service will definitely give a +10 love this Place NYC shall return here much love FL“

“This was the first time I went in person, and honestly, it was such a great experience that I felt like sharing it. I had heard a lot of good things before, but sometimes you do not know what to expect until you go yourself. From the moment I walked in, I felt comfortable. The atmosphere was welcoming without being overwhelming, and I immediately noticed how well the place was kept. It was clean, organized, and had a calm energy that made it easy to settle in and enjoy myself.

The employees were absolutely amazing and genuinely nice. Every interaction I had felt authentic, not forced. They greeted me with smiles, were quick to answer my questions, and made me feel like a valued guest instead of just another customer passing through. That level of kindness really stood out to me because it is not something you see everywhere these days. It made me appreciate the effort that goes into creating a positive environment, and it honestly set the tone for the rest of my visit.

The food I bought was way better than I expected. I thought it might just be average, but it surprised me in the best way. The flavors were fresh, the portions were generous, and it all came together to make a meal that felt worth every penny. Eating there was not just about filling up, it was part of the overall experience. I could tell they cared about quality, and it made a big difference.

Another thing I really appreciated was how the place was not super noisy. Sometimes when you go out, it can feel chaotic or overwhelming, but here it was just right. There was enough energy to feel lively, but it never crossed into being distracting or stressful. I left feeling relaxed, happy, and glad I had finally decided to go.“

“I luv my pembroke Popeyes“
