If you're looking for a delightful dining experience, you must visit Brazas! The portions are huge, and the food is absolutely delicious. We started with the mixed ceviche, which was packed with fish, shrimp, and calamari. The mild version was perfect for us, bursting with fresh, zesty flavors. Another highlight was the Jalea fish plate, featuring perfectly fried fish and yuca. The light batter on the fish was incredibly tasty, especially when dipped in the ceviche lemon sauce--simply irresistible. For a special treat, ask for the llomo saltado from their secret menu. This dish, served with rice and French fries, was a standout. We did not have room to try anything else but their chicken looked delicious as well! Brazas has a festive and lively atmosphere with great music adding to the enjoyment of our meal. The place is spotless and well-maintained. Plus, Wendy, the owner, ensured that everything was perfect for us. Brazas is a local gem. Worthy of trying over and over! Make sure you are hungry!!! We will be back for more! read more

The Good, Bad and Ugly. I'm thinking I need to give them another chance. Went for a late lunch as I was craving Peruvian, and where I uses to live there is excellent Peruvian food. This was just meh. GOOD: Clean place with hearty portions of food. Food is made to order. BAD: Ran out of chicken by 2:30. So I ordered the chaufa with carne. Came out piping hot with high quality beef, but the rice was mushy with little flavor and nothing else in the rice but scrambled egg. . The aji ( green) sauce was just hot without noticeable clean acidic flavor. The hot sauce was hot but had a gritty texture. UGLY: Nothing ugly but nothing to come back for. read more

We ordered a combo of 1 whole chicken, yuca fries, and a salad($33). The chicken was tasty, especially with the picante sauce. I would like to try some of their other items. It's a nice small menu, so my guess is that everything is probably good. read more

Yum!!! The Peruvian chicken was delicious. I had dinner with my college attending grandson. We ordered the chicken combo which consisted of a whole chicken with two sides. We chose french fries and beans and rice as our sides. The chicken was so moist and flavorful. The beans and rice were delicious and plentiful. The fries were crispy and hot. The gentleman behind the counter spoke a little English but did his best to be helpful. The young lady that took over our order was super nice. Although this is a counter service restaurant, there are tables inside to eat. Looking forward to visiting again. read more

The food was terrible, my fiancé is Peruvian and grew up eating Peruvian food and this isn't it. Everything was overpriced for what you get. We ordered the lomo, they had no steak and put chicken in it instead, still was charged full price. 48$ on lunch for a bunch of food that'll be in the trash. Don't eat here read more

Brazas Chicken Peruvian Food - Chicken - Peruvian Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

Place was small. Service was fast and efficient. Food was amazing! We ordered the chicken, fried wings, mix ceviche, and pork chop and all was very tasty. Seasoned very well. We also had maduros, rice and beans. This place did not disappoint at all. I will definitely come back read more

Great food, fast and friendly service. Probably seating for 20 or less. Feels like more of a takeout place but regardless, the food they are serving up is excellent. 2:00 on a Saturday and every seat was full. Chicken was well seasoned, perfectly prepared, and juicy. We saw a couple of special orders come out - one was a fried rice type dish with octopus and shrimp - Arroz chaupa. Another was a steak with peppers and onions served with rice and fries. I'd definitely come back to try the fish as well. read more

Stopped in with the family because they wanted Peruvian roasted chicken. Not exactly a wide range of options in the area. We ordered the whole chicken combo with avocado salad and fries. We were doing to order chichi morado. The printed menu in front of us showed a price of $2.99 but showed up as $4.68 on the POS screen. I questioned why the difference and the woman pointed to the large menu screen above and said the price had increased. I said the beverages on the menu screen were actually the only items that didn't show a price. She said it was a mistake. Not sure why this is a common theme among Peruvian restaurants in Florida. I see the price on the Google Menu shows $4.16 but still not what they're charging. We opted for bottled water and was charged and were told $1.30 per bottle but were charged $4.68. Coincidence it was the same price as the chichi morado? Again no printed price for the water so who knows. The avocado salad was actually pretty fresh. The French fries which are sold as a side for $8 were pretty skimpy. I mean fries are cheap and most places will give a pile of them The chicken was OK (definitely had better) but the chicken was a bit on the anorexic side. The haucatay sauce was pretty good but the chinichuri was lacking for sure. Was disappointed based on the reviews versus the reality. read more

Had an itch for Peruvian food and decided to give Brazas Chicken a try. Located inside a shopping center, parking is plentiful. It's a small little restaurant that seats about 15-20 people. I was greeted once I got in with a list of what they didn't have. One of which was Rotisserie Chicken...?!?? They ran out and were 45 minutes away from having more chicken ready. Well luckily I wasn't in the mood for chicken but many people walked in and out while we waited due to no chicken. Wife and I ordered the Pollo Saltado, Jalea Mixta and Papa a la Huancaina. Wife enjoyed her Pollo Saltado and I noticed the potatoes were hand cut and they purposely separated them from the sauce so they don't get soggy and allow you to mix it yourself. My Jalea Mixta was a large portion. I knew immediately I was going to have leftovers. It came with Yuca Frita. All the fried seafood tasted fresh and it was lightly battered which was nice. The Papa a la Huancaina was also plentiful and delicious. Portions overall were a good amount. I will note that the prices were higher than noted on the menu which were a little off pudding but I felt better once I saw the portions. Staff was really nice and attentive. They came over several times to check on us. And I was also impressed at how clean and nice the bathrooms were. Overall it scratched my Peruvian itch. Them being out of their namesake food item and prices being off was a bummer but the quality of the food made up for some of those errors. I would come back when in St Augustine and recommend to others. read more

Tucked in a plaza near Flagler Hospital in St. Augustine is this small and quaint Peruvian owned joint. We were assisted by the owner had a good conversation on how they prepared their dishes. We got the whole red snapper, whole Peruvian chicken with sweet plaintains, yuca and fries. The fish was delicious and crunchy yet not greasy since it was fried. The chicken was flavorful and we got it piping hot. We enjoyed our food as well as the friendliness of the staff. read more

Brazas Chicken Peruvian Food - 5.1.2023 opening soon - Peruvian Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

One thing my family and I sorely miss from home is good Peruvian chicken & sweet plantains. So after finding out my son's Sensei was Peruvian, I quickly asked him if he had any recommendations for good Peruvian chicken. I could not be more thankful for his recommendation. The juicy chicken was packed with flavor all the way down to the bone and their sweet plantains was a delicious way to cap off the meal. We also had their sweet potato fries, but sadly that did not survive the ride home as we were famished, but they too were amazing. =) Thanks Brazas Chicken & we look forward to seeing you again very soon. read more

Brazas Chicken Peruvian Food - Delicious Pollo a la braza, fries, avocado salad, and salsas! Yummy! Thank you. - Peruvian Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

I have been craving Peruvian chicken and after reading some reviews we decided to try it. There are no pictures because we were starving. We each ordered the lunch special which included 1/4 chicken, salad, one side and a soda for $13.99. The lunch special was available at dinner time. The restaurant closes at 7 pm. The chicken was so delicious and flavorful. I really liked the chimichurri sauce. My side was the tostones and my husband got the sweet plantains. Other sides available were fries, rice and beans and sweet potato fries. We also loved the garlic dressing/sauce. I called in the order and it was exactly right when we picked it up. There are a few tables inside but we took it home. I am adding this to my list of regular go to places. read more

Came here while on vacation craving Peruvian eats and was not disappointed! Seriously some of the best chaufa I've ever had. I had doubts we'd finish the big plate of rice when it came out but it was spot clean by the time we were finished. The lomo saltado was amazing as well--perfect sauce, juicy tomatoes, crispy papas fritas. Don't sleep on the hot sauces either they were homemade and full of flavor. The owner Wendy was lovely and made us feel so welcome. Please support this local gem! We'll surely be back whenever we're in St Augustine. read more

Great food! Great costumer service. Would recommend for lunch only. I had the pollo salteado with tostones.

All the food is so yummy but that chicken is to die for. Their ceviche recommend it 100%. We did a carry out order and they took care of it fast and with no problem. The restaurant was very clean and welcoming. Is not a big of a place but the food is worth it. Recientemente ordenamos comida y todo desde el pollo, ceviche, papas y lo demás estaba delicioso. Buena sazón y el servicio excelente. read more

Stopped in after reading the reviews, My wife and I had the Brazas combo, which included a whole chicken, fries, and an avocado salad. The fries and salad were made fresh and were yummy. The chicken was terrific, moist white meat, and great seasoning. I loved the chimichurri sauce, as well as the mint sauce. I'm not sure which sauce came with salad, but it was delicious also. Service was friendly and helpful. I would have left a 5 star review, but they served can soda, and were out of some food we tried to order. 5pm dinner, you shouldn't be out of anything. Especially something as popular as huacaina potatoes. I'll have to try it again some day, but since I live over an hour away, it may be a while. Hopefully they have potatoes next time. read more

While working in the plaza, i noticed a new place had opened. I decided to give them a try for dinner. The food was fresh and delicious! The lunch special (they serve all day) is a good value! I spoke to a gentleman named "Arturo"? He was so welcoming and made sure I had everything I needed with my to go order to enjoy my meal! I would definitely recommend and I plan to go back soon! read more

I recommend paying cash at this establishment. I visited this store for the first time 2 days ago. I asked if there was a way to order on-line and the clerk told me that they use Door Dash. The very next day I got a fraud alert from my credit card company for an attempted charge of $246.47 to Door Dash. My husband and I have never used Door Dash so there was no way they had our card number. There was also a charge to Instacart for over $300. We have never used Instacart either. The food was disappointing. I got the chicken and fried yucca. I was expecting the quality of chicken that I got at another Peruvian take-out in Ashland, VA, but it was not comparable. read more

I came here 5 months ago when we came to buy our home in Saint Johns. I'm originally from North NJ where Peruvian restaurants are everywhere. In my opinion, this is the most authentic Peruvian flavor in this area, the cook is Peruvian so the seasoning is right. The Pollo a la Brasa has the right seasoning so is excellent. The ceviche was surprisingly good as well. My only problem is the menu, I wish they expand what they offer because the ladies in this place know what they are doing. There aren't many authentic Peruvian restaurants in this area so this is definitely a GEM. read more

Food was delicious! Got the ceviche and yuca fries. Both were absolutely top notch and I'm quite picky when it comes to ceviche. So glad we know about it now! I would definitely recommend stopping by. read more

Stopped here for lunch to give it a try. We had the Lunch Special Chicken which is a quarter chicken with Papas Fritas (french fries) and a small salad. The chicken was very good - not dry at all and the white meat was moist - very nice. This is really a takeout place with tables for about 20 people - we were the only ones dining-in. The service was very good and friendly. I think we missed out on a more Peruvian dining experience but not better exploring the menu. We will give it a try again and try some more representative Peruvian dishes. read more

We tried Brazas for the first time and it was incredible! We ordered the whole chicken combo. It came with an avocado salad, a few different sauces which were all tasty and fries. We also got the sweet potato fries, plantains, rice & beans. Alll incredible. Highly recommend trying this place! So flavorful and plenty of food. Will be trying the ceviche next time I can come by. read more

Have to give credit where it's due! Stopped by a new spot Brazas Chicken (2473 US-1, St Augustine) for the first time & it was amazing & the owner Arturo (true Peruvian) is probably one of the nicest guys you'll meet! I got the lunch special - the yucca fries were fresh & tasty & the chicken was some of most moist & flavorful I've had. Apparently they also have some of the best Ceviche out of Peru which I hope to try next time. read more

The food is simply excellent, the roasted chicken here is next level delicious and you won't find chicken this delicious and juicy anywhere else. The flavors were right on the spot, even the breast, the breast! It was overflowing with the juiciness! The sides were also monumental, the fries were perfectly fried, the fried yuca is so freaking delicious!, the sauces (all of them) were delicious, don't forget to try the huancaina sauce with the potatoes it is a very delicious sauce! The people running the place are very warm and friendly in this very casual place so don't expect table side service, this is pretty much order, get your table, your utensils and enjoy! This place is a perfect place to go when you are starving. Enjoy! read more

First time going to Brazas here in St Augustine. The gentlemen behind the counter was extremely courteous and also helpful at suggesting our food choices. Overall the food was great. We were a little disappointed that our sauce choices got mixed up. We'll have to try the one we wanted next time. We will definitely be back! read more

I ordered a quarter white over the he phone with no problem. When I got it home, it was a quarter dark. i called and asked them to please exchange it for what I ordered. So, another trip to the store. Although they gave me what I ordered, they told me I couldn't choose dark or white. Good chicken, but not worth the hassel! read more

Brazas Chicken Peruvian Food - Huancaina potato! - Peruvian Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

really really good chicken and side items. The staff did a great job of explaining what we were ordering and the spice level of it. Me and my girlfriend really enjoyed the combo of a whole Peruvian style chicken, fried plantains, and fried yucca. I'm not sure I know of anywhere else in town to find fried yucca and it was great. I would've posted pictures but we ate it all before I thought about that. read more
