Francisca arrives in Hialeah Gardens: a new home for charcoal flavor
Some places naturally find their home. Spaces where everyday life calls for something warmer, more authentic, more ours. That is how Francisca arrives in Hialeah Gardens, this time inside Bravo Supermarket, as a familiar corner where the aroma of charcoal blends with the daily rhythm of the community.
Because if there is one thing that defines this neighborhood, it is constant movement. Mothers doing quick grocery runs, grandparents who know every aisle by heart, workers passing through between shifts, and families looking for practical options without giving up great flavor. And right there, within that rhythm, Francisca finds its place: a space where the everyday and the delicious meet without ceremony.
A restaurant with Latin soul, now more accessible
In this new location, Francisca does not arrive with the idea of a large dining room or long tables. It arrives with something better suited to daily life in Hialeah Gardens: a practical, welcoming takeout format designed to fit your routine, with self service support tables for those who want to pause for a moment and enjoy their meal on site.
It is a more compact version of the Francisca experience, but with the same heart: food made with intention, fire always lit, and the warmth you already know.
Charcoal flavor that needs no introduction
Even though the space changes, the fire does not. Our charcoal grilled chicken, hormone free and slowly cooked in a Josper oven, arrives in Hialeah Gardens with the same aroma that wins you over from the first bite. Golden, juicy, and full of tradition, it remains the dish that has been with us since the very beginning of Francisca.
Along with the chicken come the flavors that keep people coming back again and again. Flavors designed to fit into a bag, a takeout box, or a short moment at our tables:
Soft hallaquitas wrapped in banana leaves.
Crispy chicharrones, perfect for a quick craving.
Charcoal grills to go, ideal for sharing at home or at work.
Francisca Meat Bowl, our most requested bowl thanks to its perfect mix of picanha, rice, ripe plantains, and freshness.
Flor’s Tres Leches cake, the dessert that turns an ordinary day into something special.
Each option is crafted to travel well, stay warm, and reach your table or your grocery bag with its flavor fully reminding intact.
A new space designed for your pace
This venue is not trying to be a traditional restaurant. It aims to be a pause within your routine. A place to pick up your charcoal chicken while grocery shopping, to enjoy a fresh lunch without complications, to grab dinner on the way home, or to sit for a few minutes at our self service tables before continuing your day.
Francisca arrives in Hialeah Gardens to be your companion: in the rush, in the break, during a quick stop, or in a spontaneous craving.
Tradition, closer to you
Opening inside Bravo Supermarket is our way of being closer, more accessible, and more practical without losing our essence. We bring the fire, the flavors of our roots, and the pride of our tradition to a place where the community already gathers, talks, and shares.
Because that is Francisca. We go where our people are.
