Empanadas Restaurants near Lawrence, MA

“Hey foodie friends! 🥳 Just discovered this little empanada gem and HAD to tell you about it. 🥟

First things first – this is mainly a grab-and-go spot! They’ve got just a few seats (like 6 max), so think quick bite, not long lunch. But the service? Super speedy and super sweet! 😊

Now… the STARS of the show: the empanadas!!!!!!!!!!!
They’re nice and hefty, packed with plenty of flavorful meat inside. Oh, and pro tip: they ask you to call about 20 minutes before you swing by so your empanadas trays are waiting for you FRESH and PIPING HOT. Genius, right? 🔥

The menu had me grinning like a kid in a candy store:

· Chicken 🐔
· Chicken with Cheese 🧀🐔
· Beef 🐄
· Ham and Cheese 🐷🧀

BUT WAIT… there’s more! Ever tried little fried yuca balls oozing with cheese? Because you need to. They are ABSOLUTELY delicious!!! 🧀✨
Thay also have sandwiches, but i was there for the empanadas.

Feeling thirsty? They’ve got tropical drinks too! My absolute fave is the jugo de parcha (chinola) – so refreshing! 🍹

Whether you need a quick and tasty takeout meal or are planning a party (yep, they do catering ready for pickup!), this place is a total YES from me. Run, don’t walk! 🏃‍♀️💨

Highly, HIGHLY recommend! 👏“

“Su comida y atención son excelentes !!!“

“Passion Steak Tacos was amazing very child friendly. The food tasted delicious and the 🌮Taco Shrimps I have to say it was very tasty love this place will recommend.“

“Great burritos! Fair prices“

“Hello all, it’s your friendly neighborhood nurse practitioner! I recently enjoyed a good experience at Pikalo. The ham and cheese tostada I ordered was toasted to perfection, with the cheese melting just right, creating a delicious blend of flavors. The passion fruit smoothie was a perfect match, striking the ideal balance between tartness and sweetness. I highly recommend this spot, especially for their generously sized and tasty empanadas (even if I think they are a little bit expensive for what they are, but that applies to most food spots that sell empanadas). This location isn’t ideal for dine in, more of a take out place. A satisfying meal overall, highly recommend!“

“Upon the recommendation of my friend Rubi, I tried Pikalo today. I used their online platform and chose a 5-cheese, a chicken, and a beef empanada. When I arrived, the shop was PACKED, but my order was ready to the side with BIG letters; R BRADY. Excellent service. All three were all delicious, but the beef was my favorite. Thanks for lunch. I'll be back!“
