    Boludo is serving Argentina pizza which has sauce that is on the sweeter side. I like it a lot because it stands up to the bold ingredients. I've been here a ton of times but always for take out. The restaurant is self service meaning you sit yourself and get your own water. It was really busy when we went but food came out in about 20 minutes for how packed the restaurant was. The empanadas are a must. I've tried most of them but the carne is my favorite. And the chimichurri is so good with a nice vinegar kick with fresh herbs The Campo pizza comes with chorizo, mushrooms, onions and mozzarella. The best part is the parmesan cheese they put on the crust. I would like the amount of cheese on the crust they show in pictures match what you get in person. Our pizza was really heavy on the mozz and not enough balance of the other ingredients. Also got the flan which has candied pecans and dolce de leche on top and the custard below. It tastes the best when you have a bite of everything but the jar they put it in makes it difficult. If you like flan it's a good dessert to try.

    Pizza was wayyy to greasy! Salad was huge! Price was OK but I asked for extra Ceasar dressing and they wanted to charge me $3.62 for EXTRA dressing? Crazy work!

    Came here for dinner. The "open" sign was not lite and I thought it was closed. It was not crowded. Sat down and table was dirty. Asked for it to be wiped. There seemed to be one guy taking orders at register and cleaning tables. A lot was self serve- order at counter, get your own utensils, water, napkins, to go box, etc They were out of red wine. Out of Malbec. How? Why? While ordering a few people came, picked up pizza, and went. The locals like the food but not a good dine in experience. I got the margarita pizza and my friend got the porteno pizza. We got the Jamon y queso and Messi empanada. The empanadas were the best I've had outside Argentina but they were not hot temperature wise. The pizza looked amazing but I found the sauce too sweet for me. My friends pizza was better because he had so many toppings to mask the sweetness. Missed opportunity on the wine sale!

    Boludo combines the ambiance of a beautiful sit-down eatery with the convenience of a fast-casual restaurant! You order at the counter and can grab your own silverware/plates/waters. The food was ready quickly and came out very fresh. The pizza is a little hard to eat because the cheese is so stringy, but it's so good. If you're sharing a meal with two people, I suggest ordering an empanada or two and one pizza to share so you can save room for their heavenly churro donuts.

    Margarita pizza

    Holy moly this pizza was so good ! I got the margarita pizza and it was amazing. They put a bunch of cheese on the crust and overall just hit. I will say the crust tastes different, I wasn't able to pinpoint it - almost sweet? I finished the pizza by myself. Only downside is they have a weird seating system where you pick a table then order.

    Probably one of the best parts of my Twin Cities trip. This place was so good that I ended up eating there two days in a row first thing in the morning. It's a humble-looking spot inside, but it doesn't lack in its food. Most is a self-service situation where you're choosing your table to sit at, grabbing your own water, and bussing your own table if you have the time. Casual spot with some interesting pizza. Boludo seems to be Argentinian-owned and family-run. I ordered the Porteño and asked for extra parmesan because of an Instagram reel I've seen with parmesan covering the crust. Due to a small misunderstanding, they ended up giving me something even better.... A fully parmesan-covered pizza. It was probably the best thing I've eaten that entire trip. Truly a great blend of salt, acid, fat, and heat. The second day I tried the Campo and tried to ask for the same cheese covering but ended up with the style I saw in the reel with the crust covered in cheese. It was still good, but not as good as my first order. They have a pretty solid Caesar salad as well! I would genuinely fly back to try this place again.

    Boludo is so good! I usually get pizza, but this time I tried the leek empanada and the ham empanada. Delicious! Ordering at the counter was easy. Since I visited the downtown location the night of an event, tables filled quickly but didn't feel overcrowded.

    Boludo is an interesting spot Downtown - it seems to be in a space that doesn't really quite suit it, and the counter service aspect makes them truly apparent given everything else inside. The pizza was decent albeit a bit of a letdown for something I'd been looking forward to trying for awhile. The Campo was earthy, but a little too undercooked on this visit. The Messi empanada was way overpriced, especially considering it was more of a fancy hot pocket with a spice-filled dipping oil. This is a borderline 2-star review, which is quite below the usual for me, but unfortunately the food, the service, and the setting itself all left quite a bit to be desired.

    De La Casa Salad
    Ken T.

    We came in after the Vikings game to wait out the crowds. Luckily we got there early and we're able to get a table before the masses came in. They had a date night special which includes 2 empanadas, 1 pizza, 1 salad, and 1 dessert. I honestly think this was enough for 4 people. We chose: Empanadas: Carne and Espinaca Pizza: Pepperoni Salad: De La Casa Dessert: Churro Donuts All of it was delicious! I did think the churros were a little more dense than I would have liked, and the caramel dip was thick, but over all still pretty good. The salad was phenomenal. It was a large serving and very flavorful! I loved the set up. They had water, plates, utensils, and boxes to serve yourself, but still brought the food out to you and picked up empty plates. This is the perfect set up to me, as I drink lots of water and hate bothering the staff.

    Pera pizza
    Deebaa S.

    My fave pizza lives here. For me, their pizza beats Rosalia by a hair. The pera pizza slaps! Pears, Gorgonzola, dill, and pine nuts is a winning combo. The empanadas are equally amazing. I've had both the carne and puerro. Omg, so good! I also love their De La Casa salad. Something about the candied pecans set it off, again with the Gorgonzola, yum. They have an awesome special for $49. You can try all of that plus pick a dessert. You get an empanada each, a huge portion of salad to share, a pizza to share, and for us we chose the churro donuts which was also a very generous portion. Had to take them home. Add a glass of wine, it pairs so well. You order at the counter, simple service and nice sit down, spacious spot at their downtown Mpls location.

    My first visit to Boludo was a mixed experience. I didn't indulge in their most sought-after item, the pizza, but from an empanada perspective, I can't say I was entirely blown away. One of several marks that make an empanada spectacular is the filling-to-dough ratio. I'll seldom mention price as a factor because I enjoy paying for a good meal, regardless of what it is. However, quality and value are also important to me. I didn't feel that the quality of everything I ate made up for the value. I sampled the Messi, Pollo, and Carne. The pollo empanada was my absolute favorite as it definitely followed the empanada ratio-rule. Juicy, well-seasoned, and stuffed like a pillow, this chicken empanada was baked to a beautiful golden brown perfection, enjoyable from start to finish. The pastry dough was airy, crisp, and tender, with just the right thickness for the filling. I dipped this bite in their house-made Chimichurri sauce, which amplified the flavors of the chicken. I could've easily eaten several. 10/10, no notes. The Messi, Boludo's creation of a pizza empanada hybrid, was a bit messy. Because it's a fried empanada, the filling is steaming when you break into the empanada. The reggianito and mozzarella cheese filling ooze out, which may sound delicious, but along with a few slices of pepperoni, it's all the filling there is. So unfortunately, all of the filling fell on my plate, leaving me with empty empanada "husks" which I used to scoop up the filling. It was okay. I appreciate the attempt at an untraditional filling, but it wasn't a bite I'd necessarily suggest or order again. The carne empanada was the most disappointing of all. Stuffed with beef picadillo, ají molidos, and olives, this empanada crumbled at the first bite. Compared to the chicken empanada, which shares the same dough, there was a difference in taste solely in the dough. The dough of the beef empanada was chewy, dense, and very crumbly. The picadillo filling was abhorrently dry. It was an overall miss for me. Regarding the ambiance, I enjoyed my meal on their patio dining space while the sun was still toasty, which is an excellent option for people watching and enjoying views of the Twin Cities. This eatery is very casual. An option to consider if you're in the area and desire a quick, light bite. Offering counter-service only, you place your order, receive a number, and your food is brought to wherever you choose to sit. While there is no table service, drinks, cutlery, etc., may be brought to your table if you ask. The space indoors offers a few booths and tables for seating. There are lots of TVs inside playing different sports channels. Parking was challenging because there is only metered parking nearby, but Boludo is centrally located and also partners with a couple of food delivery services if you can't make it to them.

    Boludo uses a fast casual style of ordering at the counter and food will be delivered to your table. I would suggest previous reviews on this place don't accurately capture the vibe. Ambiance is casual and more rustic at this location vs classy, trendy, or intimate. We tried Boludo during the recent heatwave and their AC could not keep up- it was pretty warm and uncomfortable inside to dine in. Perhaps this also tainted my view on the atmosphere. We ordered and shared the Porteno pizza ($24). It was a unique take on a pizza- sweeter sauce, lighter and fluffier dough/crust, and diamond shaped. It was good but not sure it was worth the value/price for size of pizza and overall product.

    Pera, pear and gorgonzola
    Michele M.

    I don't travel to a new place and NOT try their pizza. Being from Buffalo, of course I think we have the best. Boludo would fit in perfect here, the pizza was excellent, absolutely loved it. We tried two, the Pera, which was pear and gorgonzola and the burrata and hot honey pepperoni! Both were delicious and surprisingly the Pera was my favorite! The crust was cooked the way I like, the toppings were flavorful. Definitely would be my go to pizza stop in MN.

However, Uber eats told me it wasn't their problem. It was a restaurant's problem. Emily helped me by calling Uber eats herself and they told her I should call Uber eats myself so they can refund me well, Uber eats policy is if the food is cold it's not their problem. Even though I didn't get a hot pizza, with the amazing customer service Emily delivered, I will absolutely be coming back to try a hot pie from Black sheep. Thank you so much Emily for being awesome!

When my friend and I walked in, we came into a fairly spacious dimly lit space with loads of people inside. We were immediately informed that there would be over 1.5hr wait for a walk-in table. We were given the option to wait for bar seating as it would probably be quicker - and surely, it was. We did have to wait quite a bit, but it was a tolerable amount of time and definitely less than what it would have taken for an actual table. My friend and I decided to share 2 pizza pies as we wanted to get a taste of two different flavors, so we eventually settled on Korean BBQ & Perfect Pickle Pie. KOREAN BBQ As it was created by a Korean chef, it definitely had true authentic Korean flavors. As a Korean myself, I was very familiar with this soy vinaigrette and have tried this on many salad before - so, it was hitting home for me. Also, you can't go wrong with the bulgogi/beef short ribs known to all those who had Korean BBQ before. The combination of the sauces that they use for this pizza is definitely very rich, full of umami. I personally enjoyed it. PERFECT PICKLE PIE This pie was a totally different flavor to the Korean BBQ. It's less rich and maybe can be overpowered or considered more bland compared to other pizza flavors. But when tried together with the BBQ, it balances out the richness of the BBQ with the more subtle/less umami flavors. This pie gives more of a tangy/sour taste that pickles provide and more of a crunch due to the chips that are added on top. The dill is present, but not overpowering. It's a nice low-key kind of taste that people who like pickles will enjoy. Overall, the flavors were very rich in every pizza pie that we had that our mouths were bursting with flavor. It was definitely the most unique pizza toppings that I've had and can see why it's so highly regarded. I can tell that they really are meticulous with their every process and that their pizza guy by the wood fire oven is expertise in what he does. My friend and I walked out quite satisfied and I was honestly more full than I expected.
