Emiliano’s Mexican Restaurant Launches “Pop-Up Around Pittsburgh”

to Celebrate Community, Cuisine, and Charity

PITTSBURGH, PA – May 2025 – Emiliano’s Mexican Restaurant is launching “Pop-Up Around Pittsburgh,” a city-wide culinary initiative that blends vibrant food experiences with powerful community impact. Running from June through October 2025, this new series will feature neighborhood-focused pop-ups highlighting local businesses and charitable partnerships across all Emiliano’s locations.

Emiliano’s will be raising money for leading charitable organizations like the Mario Lemieux Foundation, Crisis Center North, The Brashear Association, Bethel Park Community Foundation, Glimmer of Hope, and more, through its Pop-Up Around Pittsburgh event. Five creative cocktails will be available across each location with proceeds going to a unique charity each month during the campaign.

“This campaign is our love letter to Pittsburgh,” said Laura Lander, marketing director of Emiliano’s. “We’re connecting our food with the community—not just to serve tacos, but to serve our neighborhoods, uplift local charities, and build meaningful partnerships in every corner of the city.”

Since 2007, Emiliano’s has been more than a restaurant—it’s been a committed partner to schools, small businesses and nonprofit organizations throughout the Pittsburgh region. With successful programs like “Benefit Days” and annual charity activities during Cinco de Mayo, Emiliano’s has funneled thousands in donations back into the community.

 

Now, “Pop-Up Around Pittsburgh” will expand that impact, offering:

  • A rotating pop-up experience across Emiliano’s locations and partner venues.

  • Weekly charity highlights, with proceeds supporting a local nonprofit each month.

  • Promotional seasonal menus inspired by the family traditions Emiliano’s hold true to.

 

A New Chapter, A Renewed Commitment

In becoming a woman-owned business in 2025, Emiliano’s enters a new era—one that prioritizes inclusive leadership, grassroots connections, and bold, creative community outreach.

“2025 marks our most exciting chapter yet,” said Laura Lander, marketing director. “We’re not just growing a business—we’re growing roots in the neighborhoods that have become part of our family, and inspiring Pittsburgh to give back.”

Media & Partnership Opportunities

Emiliano’s invites media outlets, local charities, and community organizations to get involved. Whether through coverage, participation in pop-up events, or charitable collaboration, the team is committed to creating a campaign that’s as impactful as it is delicious.
