Pollo Tipico - Davie

It's a great spot to satisfy your cravings for delicious pork belly.

This is a laid-back Dominican restaurant in the neighborhood, lacking in pretentiousness. Upon entering, you'll see the to-go counter and cash register directly in front of you, but there’s plenty of seating for those who prefer to eat in. I asked the server for a traditional Dominican meal, and she recommended the Carne Guisada de Res, or beef stew. While it's not always served hot in the Dominican Republic, the stew I had was lukewarm but still quite flavorful. I enjoyed it with a bottle of Dominican beer, Presidente. However, when I asked for a slice of lime for my beer, it was cut sideways instead of lengthwise, making it tricky to squeeze the juice into the bottle. Overall, it was a nice experience!

Every dish is made from scratch and packed with flavor.

The service was excellent, the food was amazing and perfectly seasoned, and the atmosphere was wonderfully relaxing.

The food was served at room temperature when it arrived at our table for four.
