Came here for a quick bite and the food was pretty good. We ordered six savory empanadas for two of us and we were both full in the end. The empanadas are of bigger size than other places we tried, and they tasted good overall. Our favorite are tuna fried, baked curry chicken, baked ham and cheese. The sauce they provided were not particularly good as it tasted like green tea. We will try more fried next time!

Diverse menu choices and creative selections. This is not your average empanada. You can also order espresso drinks and Argentine desserts like Alfajores and Meringue. Definitely the place to go if you are looking for melted cheese and puff pastry.

Loved it. The dough is light and tastes like a well made pie crust. They are well packed, and the price is more than reasonable. I took off a star because you can’t alter them. So if there are ingredients you’re allergic to or aren’t in your diet you can’t buy that particular empanada.

The food was great, beef empanadas the best. All the place smells pretty bad, and I assumed there was a plumbing problem, hopefully temporarily. We ordered 9 empanadas, there was a promotion for 3 empanadas and a soda can, we we asked for the sodas the person in charge told us that was late and she couldn’t change the order, she was nice in general probably a training issue. Deserves other opportunity for the food

I went to try out their empanadas for the first time. I asked the cashier about their different items and which ones are the popular ones. I ordered all baked (not fried) chicken, salteña (beef – my daughter’s and my favorite!), ham and cheese, onion and cheese, corn, dulce de leche (they really filled it up and it was too sweet for me), pineapple and cream cheese, and alfalores. The food was delicious and the cashier was helpful and friendly. I will definitely go back to try their other items like pizza.

I ordered beef, chicken and corn empanadas with a chicken milanesa plate. The beef empanada was way too salty, the chicken was flavorless and the corn was missing a lot. Even tho they were baked, the dough was heavy-oily and too greasy (the oil was running all over). The milanesa was oily as well, no flavor and looks like was reheated from yesterday, tha basil on top WAS BLACK, NO GREEN, like when us fresh, even baked. The salad that xm with it was hilarious and the dressing supper little. I might gv this plce a second chance, just 4 the love to my empanadas and since I’m from Argentina. But it’s shameful to see how they serve the food. And not even want to talk about the dish. Please rethink how to cook or do not advertise something that is not up to standards.

Have been ordering from here for a couple years now. Delicious empanadas every time! Try the dulce de leche with walnuts for dessert!
