MIAMI, Oct. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- South Florida is synonymous with Cuban food and the Cuban sandwich is the iconic go-to for locals and tourists alike. Pollo Tropical®, the beloved Floridian restaurant chain, is delving further into its Latin roots to bring not just the Cuban Sandwich, but an entire line of Cuban Pressed Sandwiches, to the larger Florida area.

Launching today, Pollo Tropical® will be adding a line of 5 Cuban Pressed Sandwiches to its roster of wildly popular Latin-inspired menu items.
