Delicious dessert.
Laura A.

First time at this wonderful restaurant. Service was impeccable, food was delicious and the ambiance is so surprising for a restaurant in Florida. I felt like I was at a ski cabin in Vermont. So cozy yet elegant with a giant stone fireplace. We will definitely be back again.

Our Wedding Picture 35years ago.
Evelyn C.

We went for our 35th wedding anniversary. When we checked Open Tables they only had 4:30 & 5:00 pm available but when I called at exactly 4:30 the young Lady gave us a 7:00pm seating. Which was fine. We did not want to eat late. When we got there they had our table ready. Very nice Ambiance & the tables weren't close to each others. We started off with Vellamo Sparkling water since we don't drink. We started with the Pulpo which was tender & had pieces of potatoes. (I thought it was a small portion). The corn pupusa with slaw & marinated cabbage was delicious and enough for 2 people. We shared the Conch soup which was made with coconut cream. It was delicious. The chunks of Conch were not too chewy. For dessert we had the Americano Coffee & Sticky Toffee rice pudding with Rum RAISIN ICE CREAM & Sliced Strawberries. For our anniversary present the they gave us Two Divine Cookies with raspberry filling. Since we don't drink Champagne. The waitress was on top of it refilling our Sparkling Waters right away & taking away our dirty dishes. She bought over another Bottle of Vellamo. We were able to take it home with us so as not to waste it. It was a Beautiful Night with my honey.

Shimp Machuca

A Local Culinary Gem That Delivers Both Outstanding Service and Flavor! From the moment we sat down, this place had us hooked. The fresh Cuban bread alone deserves its own standing ovation--pillowy, warm, and served with a homemade butter kissed with cinnamon and brown sugar that could convert even the most devoted savory fan. It's comfort and indulgence in every bite. We started with ham croquettes and patatas bravas, and both were spot-on. The croquettes were crisp on the outside, creamy and savory inside--like a bite-sized love letter to traditional Spanish flavors. The patatas bravas had just the right kick, with a smoky, tangy sauce that made them impossible to share politely. For mains, the Shrimp Machuca was a revelation--plump, perfectly cooked shrimp swimming in a rich, velvety sauce that had depth, warmth, and just the right touch of heat. And the Prime Tenderloin filet? Impeccably seared, melt-in-your-mouth tender, and paired with sides that complemented without competing. Service was warm and attentive, and the ambiance struck that rare balance between cozy and elevated. Every dish felt crafted with care, and the pacing of the meal let us savor without ever feeling rushed. If you're looking for a place that nails the details--from the bread basket to the final bite--this spot is a must. We'll be back, and next time, we're bringing friends. They deserve to taste this.

We visited again on Thanksgiving-eve. This time we had a party of 5. I was very grateful that the restaurant was able to accommodate a last minute addition from 4 to 5! We changed our salad this time and tried the Caesar, split in the kitchen. Tasty! Fresh anchovies were offered and accepted. We had 3 lobsters with variations of sauce on the side, sauce without cilantro and regular. All the lobster was great. It was tender and succulent with that nice flavorful sauce. The potatoes underneath were so creamy and yet still had some pieces to bite. I was the only one with leftovers, and even leftover the dish kept its separate elements and tastes. BTW, they use real plastic containers, so I didn't lose all my sauce to some recycled paper absorbent container. We also had 2 of the pork. Both plates were cleaned. I sampled my husband's again and it was as perfectly delicious as last time.

Food was out of this world and service was outstanding. Every single thing we had was excellent. Andrea was the best server, so friendly! We are telling everyone about this hidden gem. Make a reservation!

The bottom line is that Chucherias is more than just a regular old, run of the mill restaurant. It is a local gem and a dining experience that is not to be missed! I made a reservation in advance, which is highly recommended. The dining room is cozy and intimate, yet elegant with its tables dressed in white white tablecloths. Somehow, the ambiance is elevated, yet not over-the-top with formality...a very nice balance, with a rustic hint. Customer service was excellent. The server was friendly, thoughtful by anticipating our needs before we asked, and knowledgeable about the menu and ingredients. A super dining experience! Now...the extra-special part...the cuisine! The food seems to be a lovely fusion of Latin and Caribbean tastes. I thoroughly enjoyed my slow roasted pork and the house salad. Others in my party enjoyed their meals to the fullest and were full of accolades. This is definitely a restaurant that has a standard of quality and fresh, authentic food. And it's definitely the perfect location for an intimate, special celebration, like a date night, anniversary, or birthday.

Fish Stew was fantastic!!
Heather E.

In my opinion best fine dining meal I have ever had. Some of my best friends took me because it's their favorite place (locals) and they don't eat out many places EVER because he is a phenomenal chef himself. Cannot wait to go back!!

This is an octopus concoction that was delicious!
Joanne D.

Beautiful atmosphere, Chaz was a wonderful server with great information and good advice. The drink menu is great and the bartender was perfect. I will be getting shrimp and yucca mash and will be looking forward to the new taste experience. I understand the chef is a woman and the owner. Who does everything with a smile because she loves what she does.Dessert! OMG yummy! It's a little difficult to spot as the sign is confusing. Look for the beautiful stone structure and go all around till you see it.

A HIDDEN GEM FOR SURE ! Looking for an inmate time or just anything CHUCHERIAS IS IT ! TOP 5 PLACES TO EAT IN DAYTONA! Came here to celebrate a good friends birthday and first thing i said was HOW DID YOU FIND THIS PLACE! Fancy LATIN FUSION ! Everything is made to order and it taste amazing! The waiter was helpful on explaining anything to us. They have an outdoor & indoor seating area. The indoor is small white table Cloth environment, the door is huge and spacious with a waterfall. Everything we ordered was MOUTHWATERING! I love Octopus and order it anytime I can and this was one of the best I've had in the AREA! My friend for the mussels dish and said it was FIRE. Literally FIVE STARS because everything was on point, service, food, neatness, timing, location, atmosphere, & more .

The Honduran (Beef tenderloin with rice, black refried beans, and plantains)
Leon S.

Visiting from out of town we found Chucherias on Yelp and decided to stop by and glad we did. The entrance is in the courtyard of the building and it is quite beautiful as you walk up to the restaurant. Signage is a little hard to see. We ordered the Beef Turnovers and Cod and Potato Croquettes. Both were good, solid appetizers. They also bring out two sauces with bread. The green one is cilantro based and was my favorite. I neglected to take pictures of these as my intent was just to enjoy the dining experience. I ordered Chucherias Hondurenas. This dish is amazing! The tenderloin was so cooked to perfection. Up until this dish I had never walked away from a restaurant blown away by a beef dish, but this was the one. It was melt in your mouth tender. Simply seasoned to where the meat, au jus, and caramelized onions gave it all the flavor needed! My wife ordered the Roast pork, which was also amazing. I'll let her write her review on that though, but you CANNOT go wrong with either dish. My sincerest compliments to the chef. Amazing entree's. The service was top notch also. Attentive without being intrusive. Our waitress clearly explained everything to us, and answered all of our questions. Needless to say if you've read this far, you know that I highly recommend this place. It's ideal for a date night, the meal wasn't cheap, but you owe it to yourself to enjoy a great meal here. Local or visiting Chucherias should be on your list.

Food was AMAZING!!! Definitely worthy every penny! Service was fantastic! Restaurant was very aesthetically pleasing. We had a great time and can't wait to go back!

Thin Steak
Claudia B.

I'm really trying to gather the words. Reservations are required. Excellent recommendations from our waiter. The food, the food. I never get steak- I got the steak y'all (I'm usually a seafood or veggie orderer). Chef Mayra "put her foot in it"! Thinking about it makes me want to weep. I ordered the Thin Steak, my husband got something that wasn't on the menu that our waiter mentioned, salmon in curry sauce. A pitcher (beautiful) of sparkling Sangria. For dessert we got the sticky Toffee cake 5/5 and Chilenitas. Beautiful ambience, such a special, relaxing, beautiful oasis.

Amazing octopus

However, as the evening unfolded, the energy began to swell, transforming the space into a lively party hub. The conversations around us grew more animated, filled with laughter and animated exchanges. Before we knew it, the vibes were contagious, pulling everyone into the joy of the moment. A fantastic mix of music began to fill the air, which inspired some spontaneous singing and dancing. People were letting loose, not caring if they were hitting every note perfectly or nailing the latest dance moves; it was all in good fun! Our bartender was an absolute gem, exceeding expectations by delivering not only expertly crafted drinks but also a dose of infectious enthusiasm. With each cocktail, she added a sprinkle of entertainment and even a few dance moves on the bar! Her charisma elevated our experience and made us feel like part of the festivities. If you're searching for a place that combines an incredible selection of drinks with an atmosphere brimming with fun and excitement, look no further! This spot truly has it all, from delightful libations to a lively crowd that knows how to enjoy the night. You won't just have a good time; you'll create unforgettable memories!

As many of you locals know, these events can last anywhere from four days to almost two weeks which allows multiple opportunities to visit annually, hang out with friends, see all the great shows and have some awesome food and drink. If you have never been to the Full Moon during a motorcycle event you should definitely give it a try. All the concerts are free, the beer is relatively cheap and the girls are beautiful! If you only have a chance to see one band while your here, mark your calendar for Rockit Fly, they pull the biggest crowd and it is always a blast. Rockit Fly is a local favorite and all of the members are personable and easy to talk to. Twisted tea is $3, Bud and Bud light is $4, Yuengling is $5. There are multiple food vendors on site providing items like: large turkey legs, sausage and peppers, chicken on a stick, funnel cakes, french fries, loaded fries, loaded nachos, corn dogs, large pork chops, Philly cheesesteaks, brisket, ribs and much more. Note: it can get loud in here so bring earplugs as a precaution. There are times when I have no problems at all but if I've been listening to bands all day it's nice to know that I have them if I need them. Additional Note: There is minimal seating at the Full Moon but there are bar ledges on the perimeter of the entrance off Main street where you can lean, take a partial load off and watch the bikes go by. The main stage is outdoors with tons of room for large groups. There is also an indoor bar in the back (by the food vendors) with another stage where secondary shows/contests take place in the air conditioning.

We came for lunch and honestly didn't want to leave. Our server Brooke was the kind of person who makes a restaurant great. Attentive, upbeat, and genuinely welcoming from the moment we sat down. She had great energy and made our whole group feel taken care of without ever being intrusive. Ask for her if you can. The food was outstanding. We ordered the ahi tuna pizza -- a crispy flatbread topped with fresh raw tuna, avocado, sesame seeds, and a drizzle of spicy aioli and teriyaki glaze. It was stunning to look at and even better to eat. The blackened fish sandwich came loaded with fresh toppings and paired perfectly with the golden fries. The grilled chicken tacos were generous and well-seasoned with a mango salsa on the side that really popped. We also got the coconut shrimp -- beautifully fried with a honey mustard dipping sauce -- and our little one loved the chicken bites and fries. Don't skip the gator bites either -- a true Florida experience, perfectly crispy and served with a honey mustard that kept us reaching for more. Everything tasted fresh, like it came straight off the boat. We toasted the afternoon with margaritas on the rocks and honestly couldn't imagine a better setting -- salt-rimmed cups, ocean breeze, the sound of waves just a few feet away. Yes, the prices are a step up, but when you factor in that you're sitting steps from the beach with food this fresh and a view like this, it's worth every penny. If you're passing through Daytona, make a point to stop in -- you won't regret it.
