The BEST empanadas I’ve ever had! We stopped by on our way through Cincinnati and it was well worth it. I would highly suggest going!

We discovered Empanada’s Box while having a pre dinner cocktail at Homemakers Bar, and were hooked immediately. After realizing we could pick up frozen empanadas and save them, we cannot be stopped. One of the best dinners we had this fall was getting a 12 empanadas surprise box, and sharing amongst 3 of us, and basically having empanada roulette. All of them have been amazing and weird in the best way. I think my top favorites would be the Jamaica, Philly, and Mumbai. Also the noodles are a must.

My wife and I have been visiting this location since they opened after meeting the owners at a Cincinnati Food Festival years ago. The empanada's are amazing and a must try for anyone passing by or around the area.

This is a cute place with a great atmosphere to have amazingly delicious empanadas. They have choices between beef, pork, chicken, veggie, vegan, and sweet.
Their quinoa salad is great too.
I enjoyed them so much that I brought home (on a plane) 8 frozen ones. They were so nice about it and gave me a freezer bag to use so that they would make it back home safely. They reheat nicely too.
Next time I’m back in the area, I’m coming back.

How good are these you ask? While letting my empanadas cool I turned my back for five seconds and turned around to an empty plate. “Odd…” I thought, as I was the only one home at the time. And then I heard it, the sound of my dog scarfing down steaming hot empanadas! I called my dog a lot of names this day, with words I typically try not to use… in English and Spanish! Once the dog had cleared the crime scene I looked at what was left and tried to remember the specifics of the 5 second rule and its subsection on dog slobber. Ultimately I determined the entirety of my meal a loss. But they’re good enough I seriously considered it!

My new favorite food find! They have so many kinds of empanadas- I must now try them all. Absolutely delicious 🔥. I ordered an 8-pack box online midday and then picked them up on my way home from work. They had them hot from the oven right on time. Super easy dinner!

Had my first empanada at the Findlay market back in 2024. Every since then me and my husband make an effort to go!! The Jamaica, buffalo and Bordeaux is a 10/10. Don’t count the chimichurri out! It makes a good difference!!

Veggie options are available too!
