Handcrafted culinary masterpieces, cultural flavor bombs, and location right at the front of the beach!! Lili's place knows how to pack a ton of deliciousness into the even tastier vessels... with freshmade arepas and empanadas.. i always pick to make a beach lunch at Lili's a non-negotiable for our beach vacations. Yes, they have pizza, sandwiches, and other options... but the empanadas have won it all for me! Two of those delicious pockets and an icy cold Jarritos equal a divine beach bite! Today, I ordered two Argentinian Chicken Empandas and two Nutella Empanadas with a Mandarin Jarritos! The savory come with a salsa that is literally "lick the container out" good. The chicken is finely minced to make every bite filled with flavor and the empanada dough is perfectly flaky. The Nutella was an explosion of gooey goodness. Packed with Nutella and sprinkled on top with powdered sugar, these empanadas make you wonder why they aren't on every dessert menu. The inside is so perfectly decorated with gourmet pictures of their food options, signs to remind you that waiting for good food is a good thing, and a perfectly placed bottle opener so you can kick back and pop that top off! read more

The service was chaotic. The place was busy and multiple people were waiting but they wouldn't call out when orders were done so people had to keep going up and asking if their order was ready. I saw 2 people ask for refunds while waiting 20 min past estimated time for my order. They do offer gluten free crust and vegan cheese which is appreciated. The gluten free pizza was disgusting. Family said the regular pizza tasted like cheap tourist beach pizza and nothing special. The arepa was way too thick and was more like a corn pancake. The steak on it wasn't much better and was chewy read more

The menu was expansive and the workers were very nice and helpful with my choices. I was VERY excited about baked empanadas. Unfortunately, I feel like they lacked flavor. They were one note and needed the sauce that came with them. I still enjoyed them, but they didn't live up to what I was looking for. The arepa was also decent, but not the best I've ever had. They have some room for seating, but not a lot. More of a grab and go style place. It was good for being beach front and more than typical boardwalk food. read more

Delicious gluten free pizza! The cauliflower crust was thin and crispy and the veggie toppings were super fresh. I know pizza is not this place's feature dish but it's quite the standout read more

This is a fast food place with seating. The staff is friendly and speedy. They always get the orders right. Their Empanadas are good pure meat no filler, little seasoning so just add some hot sauce. Their sauce is good too! Their pizza is good and crispy and they sell some by the slice. They use too much cheese on the pizza in my opinion so I pick 1/2 of it off ;). Their steak sandwich is very good tasty and tender! They obviously care about what they do which is growing more rare in the food service industry. read more

Came here when we biked to Bethany beach because it was right at the beach and had great Yelp reviews. Very happy we did! It's a very small place with limited seating so I assume most folks take out to eat on the beach. Very nice man at the counter. We got the Maria salad which was extremely fresh and tasty but what I really loved was the arepa with steak, chimichurri sauce and cheese. I was a little sad to split it and share the deliciousness. Highly recommend! read more

Pretty cozy place, since it's mostly for take out. They seem to have a lot of good food. We opted for pizza since there is 4 of us. My children loved the cheese pizza, and we also liked the margherita, it had a very good cheese pull, i liked how the prices seems better than other places. My brother and sister in law liked the steak burrito they ordered. The service was good, they were nice and accommodating, read more

The description says "vegan friendly" BUT the burrito we received was filled with chicken. We had the waitress read it back to us when we ordered it, it was marked correctly on our receipt, and It was even marked "Vegan" on the outside. My daughter spit it out and made herself gag to clear the meat from her mouth. Be careful if you are vegan! Clearly the cooks do not understand what vegan means. read more

This is another nice addition to the food scene in Bethany. We have tried only the empanadas. They are great. I've got my eye on an arepa. Seating can be tight but there are benches on the sidewalk and the boardwalk is steps away. What could be better? read more

the teenager who answered the phone responded to me with "no" and then hung up the phone when i asked to speak to mgr on duty after i noticed my order wasn't right when i got back to work to start eating my meal i was excited to try. then the "manager" took the employee's side when he finally called me an hour later to address the reason i called. mgr wasn't even in the restaurant monitoring the teenagers at work, and when i told him my situation that i paid for avocado and it wasn't in my food, he was bullying me over the phone and was so unhelpful. this place is a scam and mgr was dishonest saying that Toast will handle the refund when the restaurant is supposed to. he did not even offer me a partial refund - he told me to come back in and "maybe he will refund me". that's not how customer service works. i have never had a worse experience in my life the way these people handled a small situation! read more

I am gluten free and we are always looking for somewhere that has a good selection of gluten-free and regular options. Lili's Place meets all the expectations. Pizza was excellent and the gluten free arepas were fantastic. The arepas were full or flavorful steak and cheese. The fries were crispy and you would not have thought they were baked. The location is small and only has a few tables and chairs but the photos on the wall shows the yummy food. Service was quick and friendly. This is definitely a place we will return to. read more

Came in for a light bite for lunch while visiting Bethany Beach. Inside is nice but definitely tight for seating. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Food was magnificent. Sirloin and chimichurri arepa as well as the sweet corn arepa were excellent. Empanadas also amazing. Definitely recommend highly. read more

Always fresh, tasty and with friendly service. Don't be afraid to venture beyond the standard pizza, etc - the South American specialties is where this place really shines. read more

Got food to go, I would've complained if we ate it there though. Salad was overpriced for stale lettuce end parts. Not worth $14. The pizza and steak sandwich were meh. The people were friendly and nice though. read more

Lili's place - Maria salad is not worth the $14 plus 3% credit card charge. Overpriced for stale lettuce end parts. - Pizza Near Me - Bethany Beach, Delaware

Really bad. Ordered 2 orders of Arepas. Picture on the website shows 3 different small arepas on each order. We ordered them for $30 expecting 6 small arepas. We got 1 each. Hardly enough for a snack so I gave mine away and picked up McDonalds for me on the way home. Nothing in the description or menu photo saying it was only 1 each. They are tiny, the size of the palm of my hand. Shows 3 diffferent arepas each. I will never go there again and I am a permanent resident. Ripped off for $30 for 2 tiny arepas. Never again! read more

Enjoyed the quick service at this small place in Bethany Beach. The empanadas are delicious; we particularly enjoyed the ones filled with beef, Chilean style, and cheese and spinach. Tasty. There's some indoor seating but we took ours to go. read more

Great gluten free pizza, gf sweet corn and cheese arepa, and (normal) pizza. Love that they have gluten free options and some vegetarian choices too. Online ordering was easy and it was ready for pickup on time! Thanks!! read more

The food here was great. I tried the clam pizza and a bite of the steak burrito and both were well above average. The service was also very pleasant. The only issue is the lack of ample seating. They do have 1 high table ( if you are lucky) and two areas facing walls. I was able to get the table. To go orders is also very popular. Enjoy. read more

We decided to try Lil's the other day when we were in Bethany since we had heard good things about it. We called in to order since their slice app wasn't working and it only took about 25 minutes, which was super fast on 4th of July weekend! We ordered the margarita pizza and the clam pizza. The pizzas were ready for pickup when we arrived and the employees were friendly and efficient! Unfortunately, both pizzas were salty and just okay overall. The clam pizza didn't had full pieces of garlic on it and not as many clams as we would have liked. The margarita pizza had too many different cheeses, Kalamata olives, and was pretty salty. I think the thick cheese layer and olives caused the saltiness. We were happy we gave Lili's a try and will be back to try other menu items, such as their empanadas! read more

I don't understand the hype about this place. Margarita pizza shouldn't have olives. The regular pie was almost dry, hardly any sauce. The only thing it has going is the location. read more

Had a vegetarian breakfast arepa with cheese, eggs, avocado, spinach, and a side sauce. It was the best thing I have eaten all vacation. Perfectly made with crispy cheese bits on the sides and fluffy eggs. The arepa itself was perfect. I will be dreaming about this for a long time!! read more

WOW! Not your typical beach fast food restaurant ! While they do serve pizza and it looked pretty good, their real focus is on authentic South American Argentinian and Columbian food. Lots of different Empanadas and Arepas..... I had the Argentinian Beef Empanadas and the Shredded Beef and Cheese Arepa - both were excellent! The owners super nice and friendly too. FYI - they close at 7pm and there isn't a ton of indoor eating space but you can easily order it to go. Enjoy ! read more

Super excited to run into this place. The empanada lover in our family had to go gluten free and has not had one since - till today. They offer both gluten free and vegan empanadas so everyone is in luck! We tried one hummus and one cheese and spinach, both gluten free. The cheese and spinach was ricotta cheese and even though it was slightly salty for me, I enjoyed it. The hummus looked pretty but was bland. The sauce that came with the empanadas was very bright and fresh tasting and really added a pop to the flavor of each. We enjoyed the gluten free crusts - they weren't heavy the way GF can be. We ate half there, walked some, and ate the rest later. Didn't waste one bit. We'll try a dessert one next time! read more

Was looking for a decent beach pizza and stumbled across Lili's. We have never gotten it before so we opted for the Margarita special and Supreme pizza. Both were solid but not traditional Italian style pizza. BUT, this isn't an Italian place! They are Latin American owned and make a pretty fire pizza. They have Pomodoro's beat in my book and they actually answer the phone! I recommend checking this spot out for those lazy beach nights in. read more

Tried take out and it was worth it! Tried a few of the Argentine empanadas, beef and the banana/Nutella. Beef was baked and plenty filled with a tasty beef filling. The sweeter, not overly sweet well blended filling of the banana/Nutella filling was a winner. It was fried but not greasy and a definite yummy bite. I also tried the White Sand - Clam and Garlic oregano pizza. It was very garlicky and pretty filling for the size which is a personal pizza size The toppings were adequate and full of taste. It was still good reheated two gays later. I would order this again and try the Shrimp Garlic pizza! read more

this place was AH-MAZE-ING!! I've been plant-based for a decade so I know first hand how frustrating it can be to find food options that are nutritious and tasty--especially by the beach and in other commercial areas. I had a 10/10 experience at Lili's. I ordered the vegan beef, soy chorizo, and vegan chicken empanadas. The pastry was flaky and crunchy, the filling was well-seasoned and delicious. I also got the guava empandada for dessert. I will DEFINITELY be back. read more

This place is awesome! We came in not expecting much and left with overachieved expectations! ThePan De Bono were so good and a new try for me! Steak Argentinian is cooked perfectly and we even added cheese to ours which was the move. The staff are friendly and I can say this is one of the best spots in the area! read more

Amazing. Something for everyone and every diet! We stumbled onto (or into) Lilis after we got dates confused to meet up with friends at a place next door. My 10 month old son and I have celiac and my husband is vegan so it's often hard to find places that are tasty and easily accommodating of both, as well as reasonably priced I wish I took pictures of our food but I ate it too quickly! I got one of the cheesy breads as well as a gluten free pizza, my husband got a vegan veggie pizza and it's our new favorite spot! My son also loved the pizza (his first taste ever!) I even went back Sunday, our last day, to order another sirloin arepa to take home and I just cannot explain how tasty it was (ok, I ordered 2 and ate one at night and one on our 4 am drive home. So they never made it home.) The meat was so perfectly cooked and seasoned, the chimichuri was phenomenal and the "bread" was incredible. I recommend this for celiac and gluten eaters alike! We can't wait to go back. My biggest criticism is that it's too far of a drive for me and they don't have a full blown sit down restaurant because I'd bet the cocktails would be just as amazing. read more

I was on vacation with some housemates and we decided to go to Lily's place for dinner. I'm so glad we did. Their Argentinian empanadas were amazing. Soft on the outside with tasty fillings (I got beef, chicken, and Nutella for a little dessert). My housemates also had the pizza which they enjoyed. The food was so yummy we went back for lunch on our way out of town. The shrimp California style burrito (though I ordered it without the fries) was so delicious. I love burritos that utilize refried beans. 10/10 would recommend. *not a discredit to the restaurant but be prepared that parking can be difficult. read more

Absolutely love their vegan empanadas (and appreciate them including vegan items on their menu!!). The salsa is beyond delicious and I like to ask for extra. Very fast service. Love this place! read more

From fellow native Argentineans, these empanadas are approved! We had the beef and pork which were both great, and the chimichurri sauce included was the cherry on top. Its great to see Southern American cuisine offered here at Bethany beach! Will recommend to all! read more
