Been eager to try Che Empanada for awhile now at their Kelly square location but parking is a bit…read moretough to find there from time to time. This location is right next to the McDonald's on Lincoln st. I'm surprised to see they opened a place where it has easier parking now so decided to swing in. Empanadas are made fresh and brought over from their Kelly square location so quality is still there. Empanadas tasted great--we tried out spicy chorizo and beef. They were perfect where it wasn't oily nor dry. They have many different varieties of meats, veggies, and even sweet options. I'll definitely come back soon to try other flavors.

Che Empanada in Newton is the kind of spot that is easy to drive past without stopping, which would…read morebe a genuine mistake. We walked into a space that is more takeout oriented in scale, but warm and comfortable enough to sit and eat without feeling out of place. The menu runs over twenty varieties of empanada on a given day, and the range is wide enough that building a mixed order across a few different fillings was the natural and obvious way to go. The classic beef is a reliable anchor and the short rib version elevates that same foundation with a richer, more layered filling. We tried the chicken mushroom, one of the more distinctive options on the menu, and it was worth ordering for something that departs from the expected. The spicy chorizo paired well with the chimichurri sauce, which is worth asking for if it does not come automatically. The La Che is another strong option if you want to try the house specialty alongside a more classic pick. One thing worth knowing is that some varieties sell out earlier in the day, so arriving with a bit of flexibility in your order in case a specific filling is gone is a smart approach. The staff were friendly and helped guide us through the menu when we hesitated. The empanadas themselves came out hot and crisp, with fillings that felt generous and well seasoned. For an empanada stop in Newton that delivers on variety and quality, Che Empanada is worth seeking out. We would come back for the short rib and the spicy chorizo, and we would plan to arrive earlier to catch the full selection.

Next time, I think I'll order some of their frozen empanadas, so I can cook them at home because they are really THAT good. I would definitely recommend this spot for anyone in the market for empanadas!

I got assorted empanadas and they were all amazing! I also got the homemade chimichurri sauce to take home.

They have a wide variety of empanadas (a lot more flavors than their website advertises) in addition to some retail items in the tiny store. I got the beef clasico, tango beef, spicy chicken, and mushroom chicken empanadas, which came out to $20 before tax and tip. The person who helped me with my order kindly labeled everything in the box. Only when I got home did I realize that I forgot to ask for chimichurri! The empanadas reheated well. They had a very delicate pastry shell that would sometimes crumble from the weight of the fillings. They tasted homey-- not too salty, greasy, or overly processed. While each empanada flavor tasted unique, I thought that they could definitely be enhanced by a tangy, salty, spicy sauce. I really should have picked up some chimichurri... They have a good selection of vegetarian empanadas and a vegan empanada as well. I look forward to coming back!

The staff is pleasant and helpful in recommending only the best for us to choose from. My husband and I wish we got more chicken and cheese ones because we ended up going rock paper scissors on who gets the last one from our order. I'm always a fan of a ground beef and cheese empanada and they delivered there as well. Perfect combo for the guava and cheese dessert empanadas. We even tried the potato fillers, which the one for the day was shepherds pie. We devoured everything and still think about those bites. My husband keeps asking "when are we going back to the empanadas place in Meriden" (he's not good with names). This means we will be back soon because we both can't wait!

For a quick weeknight dinner, I stopped by Empanellie's. While browsing the menu, I decided to try…read morethe jibarito - a sandwich made with flattened plantains instead of bread, filled with lettuce, tomato, and a choice of protein ($14). I picked the euphemistically named "steak," which turned out to be ground beef that wasn't even well-browned. The combination of lettuce, tomato, and simply seasoned ground beef tasted a bit too much like a Crunchwrap Supreme. Fresher and twice the size, sure - but still within that same flavor palette. Even the fried green plantains, which should've added some texture, had steamed into mild sogginess from the foil wrap, despite me ordering it for dine-in. Maybe I'll try the Cubano or the empanadas next time. The jibarito was fine, but definitely overhyped here and on Google Reviews.
