Tropical Picken Chicken
Tropical Picken Chicken takes its name from its signature dish: pica pollo, a Dominican poultry specialty of flame-roasted chicken made tender by a tropical citrus marinade. Each dish on the menu sends diners' imaginations on a tour of the Caribbean, with special entrees like authentic Puerto Rican fried chicken, Cuban ropa vieja, spicy jerk chicken, and morsels of ham, cheese, and sauce sandwiched between planks of fried plantains. Guests dine in the open air on the umbrella-covered patio seating or gather amid the interior's checkerboard floor and paintings of tropical islands to enjoy meals of Miami-style pulled-pork sandwiches and stuffed empanada pastries.

Hidden jewel in town. Jerk chicken plate is out of this world. Plantains and pork chops wonderful too. Owner is very courteous

Everything, the meat, the herbs and spices, is fresh and never frozen.
