*THE* best ceviche in Jax, with three different base options — all delicious. The staff is so friendly! Locally owned and the business is super involved in the community. On my most recent visit I had the octopus special and it was almost a religious experience. Their shop has a cute rustic outdoor patio in the back, perfect on good weather days. Can’t say enough good things about Chancho King!

Upon entering this charming storefront restaurant, we were cheerfully greeted by a young man who was very willing to walk some newbies through the menu. The food was delicious! I highly recommend the empañada of the day as an appetizer. You can't go wrong with pork sandwich ?
This place came highly recommended and did not disappoint. The service was friendly and attentive and the food was amazing.

WOWOWOWOW! I had some of their ceviche from the arts market and they told me they had their brick and mortar and I absolutely had to try it! The ceviche is very fresh and refreshing. Light but super savory and rich with flavour. I cant wait to come back and devour the rest of their menu. A+++ on food!

The food was good; but, it is overpriced; and, the portions are very small.

Chancho king is one of those spots where you could throw a dart at the menu blindfolded and hit a tasty item. I've genuinely enjoyed every dish I've had here. You can't go wrong.

Wow! Came here after a great work out at First Coast cross Fit and had the best meal ever Their signature peanut sauce on the ceviche is amazing. I ate a lot of ceviche on Peru but this is hands down the best I have had Ever - I mean ever The grilled octopus with the chimmiichirri was cooked perfectly Great menu and great Sunday specials Shout out to Duffman and Amanda for great service

I love Chanco King! The food is always flavorful and the staff are welcoming and friendly. I’ve tasted pretty much the entire menu by now and I have yet to be disappointed. For appetizers, I especially enjoy the pan de yuca and the llapingacho cakes-which are potato cheese cakes served with a creamy peanut butter sauce. For entrees, I like them all but my favorites are the pork sandwich and the shrimp sango. I personally like stuffing my sandwich with pieces of chicharrones to counterbalance the tenderness of the pork and the tanginess of the pickled onions. They also offer fun agua frescas and their empanadas are never a miss.You can easily place online orders through their website so no annoying apps to download. They also offer free street parking and they have great prices. Coming from a chef background-I really appreciate the quality of food this place adds to Murray Hill.¡Viva Chanco!

I finally made it to Chancho King and I'm soooo happy, I've followed them for few years now but never made it to the weekend market. So my first visit was middle of the week @ lunch, I ordered the pork sandwich and pork rinds and the cheesy yuca fritter clouds, I'll get correct names to describe the pictures included. Anyway the pork sandwich has been on my radar for some time now and it was amazing! The tender and flavorful pork is so good and the pickled onions acidity cut through the "juiciness" (aka fattiness) of the pork and the crunch and flavor of the chicharrón (pork skin crackling) stepped the sandwich up, it was synergy! I also had an aqua fresca, flavors were passion fruit and blackberry, I had a combination of the two and it was delightful and not overly sweet. So Sunday I went back for ceviche brunch and it was also amazing! It was packed, every table and chairs at the bar were full with very happy people. We ordered with hopes a seat would be available by time our food was ready, which it did. The grilled octopus was out of this world, so good! Cooked perfectly, it was so tender and chargrilled flavor, along with grilled bread and chimichurri, it was fantastic and probably the highlight of the meal for us, then we also had a dozen raw oysters They were extremely fresh and clean, nicest I've had in a while, served with a mild sauce, not sure what it was, I wouldn't order them again, only because of my old ways, preference to have Tabasco and crackers. We each had ceviche, you have choices of fish, shrimp &/or octopus and three different bases a tomato based, traditional citrus based and the house special one with citrus and added peanut. We ordered the last two and both were delicious. Even though the staff were super busy and working hard, they were all super friendly, and genuinely happy to have the crowds. I highly recommend this restaurant during week or Sunday brunch!
