About Jumbo Empanadas

Jumbo Empanadas is a hidden gem in Kensington Market, serving delicious empanadas for over 20 years. The dough is soft with a perfect crust, paired with a tasty spicy salsa. The menu offers a variety of options like chicken, beef, and veggie empanadas, along with other interesting items like pastel de choclo. The portions are generous, with the chicken empanada being 1/2 lb and filled with lots of meat, black olive, and hard-boiled egg. Prices are reasonable, making it a great spot to grab a quick and satisfying meal. Customers find the empanadas extremely filling and worth the money, especially the beef empanada, which has a nice flavor and is considered a must-try. The signature beef, chicken, and cheese empanadas are very tasty, with melted cheese filling that customers especially enjoy. Reviewers call it the best cheese empanadas in Canada and praise the salsa, which pairs perfectly with them. The vegetarian and cheese empanadas are fresh and flavorful, with the spicy salsa adding a good kick. The restaurant provides authentic food in a low-key setting, perfect for a food-run. The place is small, with a small patio and a few seats inside. Some reviews mention the empanadas are pretty good, though reheat methods could improve, especially with the beef filling. Service can be hit or miss, with some staff being friendly and welcoming while others may seem less engaged, though many guests describe the servers as sweet and amazing. Overall, it remains a popular place for tasty, hearty empanadas in the area, and customers are sad to learn it will close soon.

Delicioso.. especial para cuando te dan ganas de Chile.. Gracias!!
I highly do not recommend this restaurant their is a young lady , her name is Cathy . She is extremely rude and lacks education and morals. Just by her vibe I just didn’t even want to buy anything by the way she spoke to me .
Was lucky to be served as I was one of the last people to be served before the place closed. We enjoyed our empanadas. They were delicious. Great customer service btw. I would definitely recommend this place to others.
