Lazo Empanadas

These small empanadas are more than a treat!! The crust is exceptionally flaky with a warm inside treat! Being a vegetarian, the spinach Empanadas was excellent while two to three might be a full meal for many.There are treats such as cookies and party boxes ordered in advance.Lazo Empanadas is one of many eateries in the "Public Market of Edgewater!"A great place to stop off with friends, family or work solo on computer.The owner is more than delightful, after reading a review I had written on the entire Public Market, she offered me some cookies. Thanking her indulgent generosity, explaining in my now very poor spanish, sugar is low key in my diet. They also offered my Service dog a treat. Incredibly accommodating and thoughtful. Highly recomended, meeting a gracious hostess, Mother & DaughterEnjoy these treats!!! Any time during the day or afternoon/evening

We got the Nutella and banana empanada and a milk Carmel, cream cheese, and peach empanada. They were very interesting. Service was good, the lady was not overly friendly but got the job done.

I'm not used to the whole food hall experience. I stopped off here for the first course. I ordered the Ham and Cheese and a Steak. The steak one seemed strange to be. I've never known empanadas to be soupy inside. Just didn't seem right and wasn't really my taste. The ham and cheese was much better.. actually full of ham and melty cheese.Probably not something I would get again but it was an over all Okay experience.

I tried the spinach, mushroom, and cheese and a chorizo, egg , and cheese with a side of chimichurri for dipping. Both were very tasty, especially the pastry. I got a little tired of all of the cheese, but that was probably because I ate a few bites of my sons macaroni and cheese while I was waiting on my empanadas. I'd definitely go back though- yum!

Lazos is one of my go to spots for empanadas especially if I want something that's not corn based shell. It's pretty pricey for the size of the empanada but it's worth it in my book. The beef and spicy versions are very flavorful and goes well with the sauce they have. It's the right amount of saltiness and slight sweetness. The empanada shell is very flaky and boy it's temperature hot when it's ready! The staff is always amazing, and the Edgewater location never fails us. It's the perfect snack after our softball games at Citizens Park!

Super tasty empanadas within the edgewater public market! In my limited experience, these seemed on the smaller side, so I ended up ordering 4 and it was the perfect amount to feel satisfied. I went on a busy Sunday afternoon & the workers were friendly and had my order up within 10 minutes. Unfortunately they were out of two of the empanada options by this time, a drink option, as well as the avocado sauce I really wanted to try! I ended up ordering the steak, spicy chicken, spinach & cheese, and the mushroom. I would get them all again! They were very hot on the inside so I ripped them all open a bit too cool. Sometimes chicken empanadas can be dry, but this one was great. The mushroom one was the messiest because there was a lot of moisture/water within the pastry. The chimmichurri (spelling?) sauce was delicious and I wish they gave me more! Maybe 1 sauce per 2 empanadas???

Can't go wrong with a light dinner! This place is quick when it's right before dinner rush. Very friendly staff and there is a menu with each ingredient listed for every item on the menu.

First time to Edgewater Public Market and Lazo caught our eyes as we made our round. It was a rainy late afternoon, so it wasn't as busy which we liked. The exposed ceiling and open concept is always nice ambiance, but sometimes it can get quite noisy, but it was a perfect day. Minimal noise and plenty of seats. Great service from the host, she was packing some empanadas while we waited for her. My boyfriend and I both got a combo. I had two empanadas - Spicy Steak and Chorizo with chimichurri sauce, and a Pellegrino, while he had Steak Quesadilla, ham & cheese, and ground beef with avo sauce and soda. Spicy steak - wasn't my favorite. I didn't taste the spiciness and it was quite liquidy. The chimichurri sauce did not go well with it. The sauce tasted more like Italian herb in oil rather than parsley & cilantro.Chorizo - loved it! I didn't taste the chorizo, but the melting cheddar did it. I definitely did not put the sauce on it lolGround beef - it was decent per the boyfriendSteak Quesadilla - wasn't a big fan of it. It was very watery and didn't taste like a quesadillaHam & Cheese - this was his favorite. Can't go wrong with ham & cheese anything! I think at this point, anything with cheese is good. I personally can't say too much about the steak quesadilla, but all in perspective. Would come back for the Chorizo empanadas though.

Everything about the Edgewater Public Market rocks, and Lazo Empanadas is no exception. I love the setting, and the entire venue is all minority-owned businesses. Kind, quick service combined with a variety of empanadas choices in a well-laid out menu makes for a positive experience.I enjoyed their Spicy Ground Beef (#2 on the menu) and Chicken Caprese (#8) along with the green avocado medium spicy homemade sauce!

Really good empanadas! The dough is very light, fluffy and flakey on the outside. I found Maria empanada to have dry dough and it's not as fluffy as this place. The dough here is almost like pastry dough which I prefer. It's perfect to allow the steak quesadilla filling to shine. The chimichurri sauce was a nice compliment as well! A bit on the pricey end at $4.25 an empanada but they do a great job here!Not pictured was the fresh mushroom which was very good! The spinach cheese was good. If you're in the area, definitely come by!
