$29 for 6 empanadas?! And $12 for $58 !! Let me laugh. Argentinians would never pay this for empanadas.
Wow, can't decide what flavor is best they are all great! Very delicious and affordable, nice people and atmosphere. Homerun!
Very very delicious 😋 😍 👌 😜
Delicious and friendly, everything we've gotten here has been awesome. I can't wait to try everything they offer!
New underrated gem for Argentinian empanadas.
Possibly the best empanadas I’ve had in the GBA. Stumbled upon this place a couple months ago while grabbing coffee next door, and since then, it’s become a go-to whenever I’m in the area. The storefront itself is nothing fancy. Definitely not trying to be some artisanal bakery, but the food speaks for itself.
I’ve always liked the idea of empanadas, but most I’ve had in the past in the city were either too dry or had greasy, over-salted fillings. Here, they get the balance right. Flaky, buttery crusts and fillings that are flavorful without being overwhelming. They offer dipping sauces, but I honestly think a simple drizzle of their hot sauce is all you need. Turns each bite into the perfect comfort food.
So far my favorites were the Spicy Chorizo, Criolla Beef, and the Eggplant. Of the three, spicy chorizo was the most flavorful, but eggplant was surprisingly the best. Topped with melted cheese, rich without being heavy, and had that juicy-soft center that worked beautifully with the buttery crust. Add hot sauce and it’s game over.
Can’t speak to how authentically Argentinian these are, but I can say they’re really, really good. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.
Shared a dozen empanadas with friends and all of them were incredible. Chimichurri was excellent as well. Looking forward to trying even more of the varieties next time.
Authentic empanadas, friendly staff, and GREAT chimichurri!
Spicy chicken is so good the whole family loves them
so glad i stopped in, lovely food
This was my first time to eat empanadas.
Fresh and Simple. Great dishes.
Probably one of the most authentic, delicious and outstanding empanadas i have ever tried in Boston. Many options to choose from and at a great price. Super friendly staff and a nice cozy establishment to sit down and relax to enjoy this empanadas. 1000% recommend this place to anyone who is hungry around this area!

If I could I’ll give this place 6 stars. The empanadas is really good. Jimena explains all the flavors very well. My family loved it. My favorite was the Chicken mushroom empanada. My mom’s favorite was the chicken one. I’ll be back for sure, to buy some alfajores.
Amazingly tasty empanadas at reasonable prices. Many flavors available, not everything is spicy. A couple vegan options. No dairy in ones without cheese (no butter in dough!) which is great for the lactose intolerant.
Highly recommend!
Stopped in for a quick bite. Purchased 2 beef empanadas with the mild sauce and enjoyed the awesome flavor. I liked how they were baked and not fried with no greasy after taste. The empanadas were delicious and nicely heated. Only a few tables inside the place and the staff were very nice and helpful. I will definitely go again
RUN, DON'T WALK!!! These empanadas were absolutely to die for!!! Service was unmatched, best I've seen in years.
I had a great experience here! The empanadas are FANTASTIC. The family who owns this place are the sweetest people. I will be back, can’t resist getting more.
