I discovered this hidden gem on the coastal rail trail. You walk up to an iPad, place your order, and wait for it to be prepared. There is a central area for everyone to gather and eat, which makes it more of a communal space that feels positive and modern.
I ordered a hot bacon breakfast burrito and two cold empanadas to-go—Argentinian Beef and Caribbean Pork. I was feeling curious, so I went with their traditional Argentinian iced yerba mate. I did not regret any of those decisions.
The burrito was crispy on the outside and softer on the inside. I enjoyed it, but I couldn't taste the bacon or eggs over the black bean flavor (which was great). The empanadas were light, flaky, and delicious. The meats were slow-cooked and tender, with the perfect balance of sweet, tangy, and savory. The yerba mate was so different from what I’m used to here in the U.S. It's earthy and sweet, but not overly sweet. The only thing was I did not get an orange slice as pictured on the menu.
Overall, I loved the flavors and the easy ordering process. I'll definitely be back to try more from their menu. I highly recommend giving this spot a try!

Wonderful empanadas. Whenever I am in this part of town, I always stock up, and that ends up being my lunch for the next week and a half. Once you get past the entire “order using the iPad on the outside wall and wait” aspect, it’s great (and becomes one of its charms.
We drive a long way for these empanadas even though there are good empanadas in the bay area. These empanadas are excellent; flavorful and delicious. You won't be disappointed.

I ordered it on an iPad on a wall in a parking lot, waited nervously for ~5-6 minutes and then a mysterious lady emerged from a door in the wall to hand me a warm, meat-filled pocket of bread. Now my tummy happy hehe

Amazing food, courteous staff, and conveniently located close to Natural Bridges and other scenic areas to hang out while you eat. There is a small courtyard a few doors down as well, and the staff will bring your order there of you just let them know!
FYI!! Ring the door bell with any questions you may have or to check on your order. This can be very helpful!

Unfortunately the flavors were boring. And the texture was mushy. We tried five kinds. Meh. Good idea but. . .

Order from a iPad and have your credit card handy, these empanadas have delicious flavor and perfect for a picnic on the beach or appetizers for a party to go! Order here, be careful to close the kiosk’s lid so the tablet doesn’t overheat as we had to wait for it to reboot.
Brilliant everything!! Thanks for an amazing meal. Highly recommend 👌

Stopped by for an empanada. Got the Mesoamerica. It was dry and kinda flavorless :(
They also wanted an extra 1.20 for chimi.

These empanadas are amazing! Taste just like the ones from home in Argentina. Empanadas like this are hard to come by in the US, so happy to have this place here in SC.
The terere is delicious and the chimichurri is exceptionally good!

Stopped here for a quick bite. Unfortunately the outdoor ordering kiosk was a bit slow but the staff member was very friendly and helped resolve the issue.
The empanadas are cooked fresh to order. We tried the Peruvian Chicken and Argentina Beef. Both were delicious!
