I got the Mole and Birría empanada. They’re decent, but I wasn’t wowed. “Best empanadas in Chicago” is a stretch. Will return to try more flavors.

Tried contacting them before a 24 hour window for a catering. Emailed, called & some girl gave me a catering number & no answer. I go in & they talk about they dont have empanadas. So disappointed with the service dont know if i will be coming back here

Eating some tacos by the light of neon is a vibe. I got the skirt steak and al pastor. It hit the spot. The portions were generous and delicious. Cool little spot if there’s open seating. I’m hoping to cross paths with the other locations soon.

This was my spot for horchata latte’s, but lately their drinks are not consistent. It’s not what it used to be.

Overpriced for low quality food and experience. Paid $50 for 2 iced coffees, 4 empanadas and a chorizo taco. The only empanadas worth getting are the chicken mole and the ham & cheese.

It always good but for reason today. The food was horrible and no one spoke English. Had to go back second cause for the wrong things on my tacos and still didn't get it right.

I ordered about 60 for a work catering event, I called in 15 mins before closing and they took my order. It was ready by 7:00 am the following day. They were great! Also, it was a hit at work. Everyone loved the empanadas. I will be catering again for work.

I am obsessed with these empanadas and how delicious and creative their flavors are. I lived in Chile for 6 months and ate a lot of empanadas but I think these were some of the best ones I've ever had.

I got the black bean, goat cheese and plantains one, the Nutella and banana one, and the jamón y queso y huevo and they were all phenomenal.

Please open a location in Minneapolis 😭

I love their breakfast burritos and the empanadas are amazing as well. They also make my favorite ice mocha in my area. This is a top spot for me to make a quick stop and pick up breakfast.

Vegetarian options: They have a good number of clearly labeled vegetarian and/or vegan empanada options

Would probably run in traffic for the pinto/cheese/jalapeno & the ham/egg/cheese empanadas. Only giving an overall four because some of the other ones I’ve tried have only been ok but that doesn’t mean that other people wouldn’t enjoy so I highly recommend stopping in. Could def use a little more sugar in the apple pie option though!

Stopped by here and ordered a coconut cold brew & a ham, egg & cheese empanada & they did not disappoint. Plus they played a lot of Karol G while I was waiting for my order, I left a happy girl!!
