Still my favorite stand at the Ferry Building. I usually get the savory ones, chicken or ham and cheese. But honestly, they've all been really great. I actually haven't tried the sweet ones and the dulce de leche sounds amazing. It's a bit pricier than the empanadas I get on the East Bay side but they always taste fresh, warm and delicious. Plus eating them out of your hand is so easy when you're strolling through the building.
Very good meat pocket. I had their espinacas $7 (spinach, bacon cheese.) It was delicious! It was served warm and without a wait. The ladies at the counter recommended this one. This was my first time here and had no idea what to order. Her commendation was spot on. Good job crew at El Porteno!
