My family and I stop here almost every Saturday when we go to the public market and the breakfast empanadas are our first priority. They are consistent and flavorful and the sauces are really good. They have a variety of drinks and you can get through the constant line quickly because they are efficient. Check out this local gem!

Pretty tasty empanadas! Tried this place on our regular trip to the market & it was good. Rice, bean, and cheese was the better of the two we tried. It was hot, flavorful, and well filled - though perhaps a bit salty. I would get this one again. Veggie breakfast was just okay. It was notably less full than the other one, and wasn't quite heated through all the way. Compared to the first empanada, this one didn't have a lot of strong flavors. Maybe we just got a bad batch here - so I'm willing to give this one another shot next time. Service was quick & the people working were helpful & friendly. I'll be curious to come back again & try some of the other options here

I am extremely picky when it comes to eating out. I also don't want to spend too much eating what I like. A friendly atmosphere with friendly staff is a must for me. This place has it all!! The staff is super friendly and helpful. I wasn't sure what exactly to eat when I arrived. I heard so many good things about this place. The staff helped guide me and helped me choose precisely what I wanted. They have various specials. When you buy various Empanadas they do better deals. This is exactly what i wanted. More bang for your buck. Staff was outstanding and they helped me choose all the different Empanadas flavors. They have the best selection in town. They have about 10 various options. They are also Vegan friendly with some items. I also decided to try what they call a combination platter

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Lloyd Kinnear · Aug 2025

We had the Combo Plate which was an overall good value. The food was hot and fresh but did not meet the expectations for all the hype. Service was friendly but lacked the awareness for little things like keeping the sauces full. The selection of sauces was excellent. If I attend another event at the Market I would consider patronizing them again because it was a fair value.

I do not like leaving bad reviews, but I feel like I must. The staff was friendly. I went in there to enjoy the Food Truck Expo at public market. We decided to get an empanada before working the lines at the trucks. We decided on beef and cheese. I had the beef. We were three people, but she told us that we would save a few bucks if we got 4 instead. So, that's why we added a cheese. The 4 empanadas ended up being $20! At first bite, all I could taste was the pastry part. The dough was way too crispy. I love crispy...don't get me wrong. I even enjoy when some come out a bit burnt, as long as there is flavor, it is fresh, and not black. Anyways, the dough tasted really stale and flavorless. When I finally got to the meat, it seemed to have decent flavor at first, but it had am almost soap
