Our story
From the Carpathians to the Coast
A family-owned Romanian deli bringing the smokehouse of Transylvania to Hollywood, Florida.
Dacia was the ancient kingdom of the Carpathian mountains. Its winters were long enough that people learned to preserve everything they had. They smoked, they brined, they cured, they cellared. Those methods became a cuisine, and that cuisine is the food our family grew up on.
Dacia Reserve is our way of bringing that table to South Florida. Sausages tied by hand and smoked slow over hardwood. Fresh sausage seasoned for the grill. Mici rolled the way they are at every Romanian cookout. We make them here, the way we learned them at home.
The name is a promise. A reserveis where you keep the things worth keeping, and that’s what we want this deli to be: old methods, small batches, and a counter where you can point at something and ask what it is.
Heritage
Our recipes come from the villages of Transylvania, made the way they were taught to us. We don't adapt them and we don't cut corners.
Tradition
The sausage is tied by hand and smoked slow over hardwood. The mici are rolled by hand. Nothing here is rushed, because it never was.
Excellence
Everything is made in small batches. When something isn't right, it doesn't go in the case. That's the whole standard.
Our doors open in Hollywood, Florida in 2026. If you’d like to be there when they do, join the waitlist and we’ll send word first.
