This place has amazing empanadas and good prices. Also the guy running it, I'm assuming the owner, is super friendly and made my first time going there all the more memorable! We also tried several different empanadas and would recommend every single one.

My favorite empanadas in the city! The empanadas here are absolutely delicious and not greasy at all. The dough is tasty and perfectly crusty, making each bite a delight. They offer a great variety of fillings, including vegan options, which is a huge plus. The staff are incredibly nice and responsive, accommodating our large catering order on very short notice with ease. Highly recommend!

Vegetarian options: Zucchini empanadas are delicious!
