Take them to go cause you can’t eat there. The empanadas and Salchipapas are delicious! Love this place! I always call in advance to order them and pick them up after 30 minutes. 💕

I’m an Argentinian guy and very stick to my Argentinian empanadas culture. But this Mexican empanadas make me think about wich one is the best. They are really amazing. I’m really glad that the owner is a very proud if his culture, sharing her grandma’s recipe to let the word enjoy the best other than we already know about the great Mexican culture. 1000% recommended. Looking forward to see a chain of this brand.

The empanadas are good, can't deny that but their service is so slow. You can't really eat there as there are no tables and chairs. How come the value meal ends up to be more than when ordering a la carte? Make sure you order in advance for pickup, at least 20 minutes.
