The Empanada Factory

Great empanada flavors, and the lady at the window taking orders is so nice. The restaurant is strictly to go, but there is a bench under a nice tree that you can sit on while waiting for your order. Oh, the onion rings and garlic fries are definitely something to try!

Take out only Baked Empanadas.
It’s a bit smaller than “Empanada Place” (Fried empanadas) but cheaper. Not many choices in the late afternoon. (if you don’t mind waiting, they can cook frozen one).

Quick service. Picture perfect empanadas. Pastry is crispy and salty and the fillings are flavorful. Impressive they’ve been around since 2003.

Found this place on accident. So happy i did! The variety of empanadas were great. They were warm when the boxed them for me. Everything is fresh made. I ordered over a dozen. I recommend the dozen for the savings. While I was there I had the spinach & egg. It was yummy! The gentleman who helped me was very nice & helpful. I don't live anywhere near this place but will definitely be coming back.

So many variations of empanadas even some non-traditional ones! The beef and alfredo I felt were okay, but I loved the spinach and truffle empanadas!they also have a soy beef if you are vegetarian or vegan.

I love this place, they are at the farmers market in Mar Vista on Sundays as well.Limited parking but so worth looking through the neighborhood.These empanadas are crispy flaky on the outside with a warm fully stuffed inside.I love the veggie one, although I'm not vegan it is seasoned to perfection.With that chimichurri sauce too? Omg ITS AMAZING. And you can order an 8oz to go as well. It's definitely the best chimichurri I have ever had.Inexpensive and so easy to order online or at the window.They have some small bench seating around.
