Brookline Lunch: Delight in Middle Eastern Flavors & Unique Breakfast Creations

Absolute best place for empanadas! We live at least 40 minutes away so whenever we are in the area we always like to pick up some just to have at home. There are so many flavors to choose from, the prices are excellent and the green sauce (spicy) is our favorite. Hands down our favorite empanada place, everything is always fresh and delicious

Ugh this spot is such a gem, I can’t get over it! The food is delicious, so affordable.. the Mac and cheese and Hawaiian empanadas are so bomb!!! Perfect for a late night snack or munchies! They also sell frozen ones to cook at home!

Delicious. Pernil empanada was delicious. Right amount of saltiness you want in pernil but still juicy. A 10/10. The green sauce exceeded my expectations. Price was reasonable as well.

The food is absolutely amazing but be on time.thank you so much I appreciate you

The empanadas are fire. The Mami’s empanada is my new favorite. But try the grilled chicken plate with rice and black beans. It’s enough to feed two people and the flavor is amazing. Weird how so many folks put negative reviews based on uber delivery or other delivery services. This is not the fault of the restaurant, let’s be fair.

I have been coming here since at least 2009. The food is always prepared fresh and made to order hence the long wait times. I have dined in, taken out and ordered via UberEats for delivery as I live a few towns over. I have never encountered rude staff or an attitude of any sort at this location, even over the phone. The location across from QCM however is a different story and leaves a lot to be desired as far as courtesy and service. That being said, I absolutely love the variety of empanadas, the chicken platters, the availability of Columbiana, the aji and pink sauces here and will continue to be a customer for many years to come!

Nothing beats coming back to the old neighborhood for a plate of killer empanadas. The Hawaiana is an absolute must-try – sweet, savory perfection. The espinaca con queso with their signature pink sauce? Spot-on. And don’t even get me started on the cheeseburger empanada – simply delicious!

Been coming here for years and I guess I got lucky that I didn’t get rude customer service . They’re always changing staff so that could be it too, never consistent here. I ordered the cheesesteak and Hawaiian empanadas- absolute bomb. Those are the best ones on the menu. I called ahead for my order and it was done on time. Be advised that they charge more if you pay with debit. Aka bring cash.
