Best empanadas in the FiDi area! Love the wide variety of clearly-labeled vegetarian options.
The five-pepper manchego and sweet corn are really solid veggie options. I've heard great things about the salteña beef as well. The alfajores are always a nice sweet treat for dessert, the soft texture is delightful.

They heat up your empanadas to order in the oven so they are always fresh and perfectly warmed. This can mean that there can be a wait if there are a lot of folks in line. It's worth the wait in my opinion!

A great spot to grab a quick bite to eat. The Mediterranean Empanada was quite tasty and is a good vegan option.

Nice option in fidi for a quick & hot meal - flaky crust was perfect. We enjoyed the creamy mushroom filling the most!

Awful customer service. I ordered online after work before I had to catch the bus. When I arrived, the employee told me he never received my order. He suggested I accidentally placed my order at their other location, which was accurate. All he offered was a weak, “I’m sorry… We get that complaint a lot.” He did not refund my money. He did not give me any food unless I ordered and paid AGAIN. I showed him how on their website, online orders went to the other location by default and customers would have to double check fine print to determine that. The employee was totally indifferent. I left with no refund and no food. I paid $20 for nothing. If that happens “a lot,” it seems common sense they should try to fix that? Or perhaps have some standard protocol to be rectify the issue, like issuing a refund or providing the ordered food? Awful service. I will never be back.

Great empanada options - lots of veggie ones and some good beef ones as well. Good little wine list also!

Get them to go and head up to the park for lunch.
