Located in the heart of downtown Nashua, Empanellies is the number one location for authentic Latin cuisine. As a buffet-style, grab and go restaurant, we welcome those on the run! Don’t get us wrong, we love our guests and have plenty of dine-in seating too! Whichever direction the day leads you, we can’t wait to see you.

OMG, the food here is so so good. I absolutely love the empenadas. I have yet to try the sandwiches but they look amazing. I love the Spanish rice, I think the cost for the small is a little pricey but I still get it because I enjoy it so much.
The empanadas fill me up, you only need about 2 maybe 3. The beef and cheese, steak and cheese, veggie, beef. All the empenadas I’ve tried are delicious. Their house sauce is so good. Mayo-ketchup, has the right amount of spices. It was so good, I bought extra to save and used it on my pizza. It makes everything so tasty.
This is a great little find. Not a ton of space inside but I took my empenadas to go. They made fresh ones for me while I was in there ordering. It was great service! I will happily keep recommending them to everyone I see.

The empanadas are Devine, heavenly, out of this world and down right delicious.
I have never had empanadas before.
I cannot wait to go back and try them all.
The pizza, chicken and ranch and beef and cheese were what I tried.
This is really a take away joint so just expect no atmosphere, just super good food

For a quick weeknight dinner, I stopped by Empanellie’s. While browsing the menu, I decided to try the 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.

Superrrrrrrrrr overpriced, 18+ for a skimpy sandwich w barely any meat in it. Portions are tiny & prices went up used to be bigger portions. They’ll try and charge you for the card price even when paying w cash, so beware of that. Also, check your receipts. It’s not $3.50 for an empanada, it’s $3.67 & that’s not the tax, same w the sandwiches. They also aren’t open until 8 FYI. No manners/customer service, everyone there looked like they hated their lives. They don’t speak English, so good luck if you have any type of questions. Flavor was good and that’s literally it.

The atmosphere wasn’t bad, and the empanadas were really good and came with tasty sauces, but I was disappointed with the rice and chicken dish. It was served in a disposable plate, didn’t feel fresh, and the chicken portion was small, which made it not very enjoyable. Paying close to $30 felt overpriced for what it was, possibly due to the location. Overall it’s okay, but that part of the experience was definitely disappointing.

I bought a bunch of different empanadas – I tried the ground beef and the taco and they were good especially the taco one. I shared the rest with friends and they said they really liked them one was the chicken ranch and the other was broccoli & cheese. This is my new favorite restaurant when I’m in the mood for empanadas!

We got there about a half hour before closing. Jimmy took care of us. What a nice guy. The food was amazing, and it was definitely worth the trip, so if you are in the area, stop by. I especially loved the pork Jibarito. This was my first visit. I will definitely be back.

This place is great for empanadas and sandwiches! They are stuffed with meat. They also have desert empanandas such as pineapple cream, strawberry cream. They are incredible! Definitely check this place out if you’re in the area. Friendly staff and good prices!

Stopped by for lunch at Empanellie’s in Nashua, NH today. It’s a little hidden gem on W Pearl Street. I got the papas locas which are french fries covered in their meats with house sauce and ranch. Very tasty and something I would definitely order again! There were so many empanadas – I got steak & cheese, pastelon, chicken bacon ranch, chicken, beef, and boston cream. I’ve only had a chance to try the chicken which was ok by itself but really good with their house sauce. And I had to taste the boston cream – so good! I can’t wait to try the rest of them! Stop by if you’re in the area…and it’s worth a trip if you haven’t been yet!
