Customer Reviews
I am writing to share my recent experience at your establishment, which I discovered thanks to a recommendation of sorts. My closest friend, currently residing in London, frequently speaks of her love for empanadas, sparking my own interest in finding a local spot that could offer a similar authentic experience. Your exceptional reviews online stood out, prompting me to visit and taste for myself. My primary reason for visiting was, of course, the empanadas, and I must commend you – they did not disappoint. Each one was a delightful revelation, bursting with distinct, robust flavors and generously packed with savory meat, unequivocally free of any unnecessary fillers. It was evident that quality ingredients and careful preparation were at play. My husband, who accompanied me, was equally
Absolutely delicious, like mouth watering. It is so soft and fluffy and the filling is a flavor bomb. The service is so good and detailed. The place is also really cute on the inside, I could sit here all day. I was truly amazed by this experience.
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
The empanadas have great flavor and the prices are reasonable. The lady was exceptionally kind. I had a great experience here
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.
