Un Pollo at The Doral Yard
$ | (786) 867-6556 | WEBSITE
Some evenings at Un Pollo at The Doral Yard, there’s live Cuban music that will make you want to dance more than eat. Except the Venezuelan grill dinner is so damn good, you won’t be able to put it down. Everything on the menu is bomb, like the juicy parrilla, the Beef Tenderloin Bowl with rice, green plantains, and Cilantro sauce, and all the generous portions. But if you’re really stuck, get the parrilla and have them make it extra juicy.
Stay inside if you want cozy decorations and warm service, or head to the back of the shopping center to find free parking and some larger tables to post up with family and friends.
Chicken Connection
$ | (305) 718-9488 | WEBSITE
Before opening its doors at Dolphin Mall, Chicken Connection was a beloved local spot where regulars would flock for dishes like the half chicken meal with extra rice and chorizo, pork BBQ ribs with white rice and plantains, and its signature affordable comfort food. The staff here will take the time to not only guide you through the menu, but also ensure you leave with a generous portion that feels like a steal.
Regardless of what you order, you have to start your meal with the flavorful chicken that comes with cooked veggies that are surprisingly good.
Chick-fil-A
$ | (305) 512-4501 | WEBSITE
Chick-fil-A is a Doral parent’s weekday savior, so embrace the chance to grab a reliable meal at this spot with consistent service, clean tables, and a friendly vibe. Settle into one of the cozy booths as you dig into fresh chicken sandwiches topped with classic choices like pickles and buttered buns. Try the app-rewarded free nuggets, which are the quick snack you didn’t realize you were craving. While the speedy online orders are a definite plus, don’t overlook the salads.
The cold rolled sandwich, which is packed with crisp lettuce, tender chicken, and your choice of dressing, is the lighter, fresher cousin of the classic fried chicken sandwich a few doors down at the burger joint. And we mean that as a genuine compliment.
Chicken House #2
$ | (305) 742-5417 | WEBSITE
This Honduran spot in Doral combines two of our favorite things: authentic Central American flavors and perfectly fried chicken. The pollo frito ceibeño is coated in a traditional Honduran seasoning blend that includes garlic, cumin, and citrus. The result is golden-brown skin with just the right crunch and meat that’s juicy and packed with flavor. You can choose your preferred portion sizes, ranging from a quarter chicken to a family meal.
Weekday lunches tend to get busy here and the restaurant focuses on take-out service, so call ahead or order online to skip the wait.
Bro’s Hot Chicken
$ | (786) 770-8205 | WEBSITE
Bro’s Hot Chicken is a restaurant for spicy chicken lovers (but mostly for the heat seekers). The main counter area, where the magic happens, is where the spice enthusiasts gather—customers line up for their preferred heat level, orders are called out quickly, and the aroma of fried chicken fills the air. The dining space is casual and open, perfect for a quick lunch or a laid-back dinner with friends.
And the signature Bro Bowl is where someone—one bite into the #3 mild—will insist that crispy chicken over fries is a form of comfort food. Fancy dining here isn’t really the point, but the Jumbo Tender with Sandwich and Fries combo is worth paying attention to and just might make you forget about other chicken chains.
La Brasa Grill Coral Way
$ | (305) 485-0024 | WEBSITE
With so many chicken spots in Doral, finding one that truly stands out can be a challenge. And some of the best rotisserie chicken you’ll taste can be found at La Brasa Grill Coral Way. When you order the pollo tropical-style chicken, you get a juicy, flavorful meal that’ll have you wondering why you ever settled for dry, bland chicken elsewhere. And it’s not just the chicken. The restaurant is decked out in warm, inviting colors with simple wooden tables and family photos lining the walls.
After a plate of perfectly cooked churrasco and a side of their fresh seafood gumbo, you’ll leave feeling full and satisfied without breaking the bank.
Lemon Peppers
$ | (305) 634-3900 | WEBSITE
Lemon Peppers deserves all of the best things, and this chicken spot is one of them. Lemon Peppers is all about the people, and brings a much-needed vibrant spot to Doral, complete with cozy couches, colorful slushie machines, and that welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. It’s a good pick for a quick lunch or just for a fun casual evening.
From the Cajun rice bowls with chicken or fish to the perfectly fried whole wings, you can taste the care that goes into every bite at this Florida chicken restaurant. We’re especially obsessed with the free slushies that come in all types of flavors. The food looks great, but we love that the staff goes above and beyond, treating you like a person with that super caring and welcoming service.

Pollo Tropical
$ | (305) 884-2268 | WEBSITE
The first thing you notice when you step into Pollo Tropical, a Caribbean-inspired spot in Doral, is the vibrant energy of the place. And the grilled chicken at Pollo Tropical, like the atmosphere itself, is bursting with flavor and perfectly seasoned. The menu, which celebrates the bold tastes of the Caribbean, features standout items like their tasty sides that complement the main dishes beautifully.
But if you’re going to order just one thing, get the grilled chicken, which is marinated with Caribbean spices and grilled to juicy perfection. You’ll enjoy it so much, you’ll find yourself savoring every bite and already planning your next visit.
