Pikalo JP
About
Pikalo is a counter-service restaurant in Jamaica Plain serving Dominican fare, with handmade empanadas at the center of the menu. The comfy, orange-hued spot makes golden, flaky empanadas daily, generously stuffed with premium meats, fresh vegetables and unexpected twists, in flavors that range from time-honored Argentine classics to newer creations. Patacones are also on the menu, and the restaurant serves both casual lunches and dinners.
Pikalo describes every empanada as a taste of Dominican tradition, crafted to connect people, and it promises fresh ingredients and a lot of passion in each dish. Its slogan, Empanadas Made Here, Celebrated Anywhere, reflects its aim of bringing the food beyond its own counters. The Jamaica Plain restaurant is one of three Pikalo spots, with the other two in Lawrence.
