Empanada Llama is a small local restaurant which has been open for 3 months located in San Jose. Owner Frassire Pezzia, a Peruvian woman who loved cooking, wanted to be a chef and later dreamed to have a restaurant. She wanted to create a spot where people can come in, sit and enjoy a friendly environment with the best service people in Jacksonville. Frassire thought that what Jacksonville was missing was Empanadas, and soon Empanada Llamas was born.
The empanadas served here are made from scratch. Some sides that you can get with your Empanadas are fried yuca, french fries, fresh salad, chips, sweet potato fries, soup of the day and more. A lot of the empanadas are based on Peruvian dishes that you would normally eat, like rice and potatoes, but which are made here inside an empanada instead. Meat and veggie empanadas are available. Drinks that are served with your meal vary from specialty drinks, soft drinks, coffee, hot tea, and smoothies.
With the holidays coming up, Empanada Llamas will do seasonal flavors. They will add soup which you can get in a cup or bowl and salad.
Be sure to make it a point to visit Empanada Llama and grab a delicious empanada. You will not be disappointed!
