Loooove their empanadas! I used to get them at school before the pandemic & now they're back for our Farmer's Market event so I of course got some! I got the chicken & the beef. The beef one is packed with so much flavor! They're $5 each & very filling. Def try them out if you can!

Can someone told me how to get to this business? I went to 2112 Santa Anita Avenue, El Monte, CA this morning but cannot find the store or truck or food stand. Call the number in yelp but no one pick up the phone . I used to buy their delicious empanadas at Kaiser's Farmers market before the pandemic. Thank you

These empanadas were delicious! Three of us were all pleased, and look forward to going back to the Sherman Oaks Farmer's Market to buy more. I ate the just-right-spicy veggie empanada that had just a little bite to it. The dough is amazing and has a bit of sweetness to it- a surprising and perfect flavor!!! I have never had an empanada this good. My husband and son ate the Chicken empanada and both gave it a rave review. To prepare our frozen empanadas, we put them on parchment paper in a baking sheet, and then into a 400 degree oven. We found that the 15 minutes that was recommended wasn't enough in our oven, and got them just right at 20 minutes. We highly recommend these wonderful tasty empanadas, and look forward to going back to stock our freezer with more next week.

Today we went to the Monrovia farmers market. The Empanadas look delicious on the pictures, so we ordered one, when we sat down to eat we opened the box and it was frozen and to make things worse the guy was rude.

The empanadas are decent but I made the mistake of ordering a turkey sandwich. It didn't have any lettuce like the description, the turkey was oddly very fatty, and absolutely the worst sandwich I've ever had. For $8.50 you'd expect somethinf edible but a single bite made me gag and lose my appetite. Tell me if the pictures look appetizing.

This is a food truck depot type location, not a market.

5 STARS! Omg! They are DELICIOUS! The most perfect tast not feied but baked. I had them at the farmers market in Ontario today. If you are in the area you must try them. And believe me the size is filling but you will want 2 or even 3 more tgere that Good!

Jessica called me back after she read the letter I sent. She apologized and gave me a refund via Venmo.

The best empanadas with savory fillings, including Peruvian lomo saltado

After disappointment and rage from not having a Spinach Feta Wrap from STARBUCKS, I walked by the King's Empanadas stand and was greatly surprised. I got the veggie and the spinach with cheese empanadas. Boy howdy were they delicious and not greasy at all. Very satisfying and wonderful. If they're back on campus (HSC USC) I will be sure to come back for more :)

You have not lived until you have tried these amazing empanadas. My favorite flavor is the lomo saltado. The meat is tender and seasoned beautifully. You can find their delicious Peruvian cuisine at various farmers markets throughout so cal. Don't sleep on their soups either. Be prepared to become a repeat customer.
