dont know if this have any thing to do with it

The parent company of the Taco Cabana and Pollo Tropical fast food restaurant chains is closing 10 Pollo Tropical locations a month after halting expansion plans in Texas and rumors of a potential sale, the company announced Monday.
Fiesta Restaurant Group Inc., based in Addison, will shut down eight stores in Texas — including one in New Braunfels — along with two others in Nashville and Atlanta, the company said in a statement. The closed restaurants contributed $4.8 million in pre-tax operating losses through the end of the third quarter, Fiesta said in the release.

Food taste really good.
Most trini's MAY find it "tasteless" Because trini's like there food OVER-SEASONED
and then put a shetload of condiments on it, that mask the taste.
I'm on a diet, so works perfect for me :)

They're re-painting QPS Branch, never understood why people hated it so much, had it recently and the wrap as well as chicken were pretty good

Pollo Tropical entered a downward spiral a few years ago.
They started by cutting the size of the drinks the combos came with (probably a good thing)
They then cut the container size sides came in (now they use some ridiculously small ones)
The number of sauces reduced (they used to have like 6 different things including salsa and guava bbq)
The chicken taste changed drastically (not to mention the KFC curse of having really small chickens)

All that while the prices went up.

their food is pretty average, and for a global chain, not much variety.

When they first opened, the service and food were not any good... the food got better tho... but most trini's seem to think KFC is the pinnacle of fast food...might as well snort table salt.

Pollo in the states is excellent... Trini locations were ok after the initial offering. Would be a shame to see them go... roasted chicken is a good option to all things fried as local fast food goes.

But food by the pound is a mega rip off... way overpriced normally... ugh.
