My girlfriend and I each had a jimon & queso empanada. The meat inside was grey and disgusting. We each only took one bite apiece and threw the rest out. . I tried calling them to let them know not to sell anymore but their phone tree is broken and told me my entries from their menu were invalid. I can already feel my stomach turning. I'll update if I get sick or not. I would never eat here again. They should be shut down!

My husband and I walk down here like once a week and pick up a couple of empanadas on our way to wherever. Noah is always super kind and personable and we've never had a bad empanada. Try the lamb or the mushroom, you won't be disappointed.

Worst beef empanada I’ve ever had. As an Argentinian I can’t say this is a good empanada at all. Big but expensive (7$/each). I don’t think the humita one is good also, it’s more like a corn empanada, different recipeI like the fugazzeta empanada though. Very tasty. Chimichurri not included an expensive for the sizeVegetarian options: Cheese and onion empanadaSpinach empanada

Best food I had in the few days I had visiting California recently! Highly recommend buying an empanada and getting a bottle of wine at the market. I got the one with prosciutto and it was great with a cold sauv blanc! Refreshing to see great food at a decent price in Napa. Will be back!

Banana caramel empanadas at Oxbow Market were supremely delicious. Thank you for the one of a kind experience!

I stumbled upon this place while walking around Oxbow Market and knew I had to try the mushroom empanadas. When I say this is a really good empanada I mean it. The texture on the outside had a nice crispy crunch while the inside was soft and moist. The flavors were seasoned really well.Service here was nice and friendly. The worker took our order and gave us the empanadas quickly. This spot would be a great spot to come to for a quick snack or empanadas craving! I will have to come back to try their other flavors the next time I’m in town!

Best selection of empanadas I've ever seen. Each time I go, I try something new. What ever I have last is my favorite. Always a flaky crust, different fillings, savory ($7) and sweet.
Had 3 different empanadas and they were all a disappointment. Staff member burnt the empanadas. There wasn't much filling in any of them and it was very difficult to chew.

My friends and I split two empanadas so that we could try other food from the Oxbow Public Market. Service was quick from this beautiful and classy stall. We LOVED our mushroom empanada and our lamb empanada. Both were well packed, seasoned and had excellent texture and flavour. Location is a grab-and-go counter inside the market, which has seating all around the building and outside!

Omg what an amazing little surprise in Oxbow market! It doesn't look like much but wow, the empanadas are outstanding. We got shrimp, Zapallo (pumpkin, brown sugar, molasses, cinnamon, anise, clove), and Cereza (black cherries in Malbec). They were all amazing but the filling in the Cereza - droolworthy. We'd initially just gotten the shrimp and Cereza but after tasting them, had to go back for a third, and it did not disappoint. Highly recommend this gem!

Really yummy empanadas! This place is SF-based so I was very surprised (but very excited) to see it at the Napa Oxbow market. The empanadas here are massive and so delicious. The exterior is the perfect amount of buttery flakiness and they fill their empanadas very generously and they're always so fresh & piping hot! I got the tomato, mozzarella, and basil one, and my friend got the prosciutto & fontina one. We both loved ours! The tomato/mozzarella/basil did not skimp on the cheese. It was perfectly stretchy too. I wish it had a little more basil & tomato, but the overall flavor was so delicious. It's like eating a pizza in an empanada form. They are a bit pricey (almost $8 for 1) but they're quite big and filling so I would still recommend getting one if you're craving a warm comforting snack! They also have sweet dessert empanadas which looked soo delicious as well. Friendly workers and quick service :) It's a grab and go place so no seating but if you turn the corner there's a ton of places to sit in the market itself!
