Reviews for 5411 Empanadas | Southport in Chicago, IL

Empanadas were a little smaller than I expected... but then again they are only $3.29 a piece. Had the curry chicken ( good)... spinach and cheese ( good) BBQ chicken (wouldn't order again) and the malbec beef( okay). All in all ,good experience. I likethe fact that they are baked versus being fried! Read more

I came in to order Empanadas to eat outdoors at their tables and benches. They brought the empanadas out in a paper bag. I said... I wanted to eat outdoors and they said they don?t give plates to sit outdoors. I?ve been there many times before and they servepeople outside. What is the point of having tables outside and not serving the people properly. I won?t go back to this location Read more

We stopped in for a quick bite. We got a variety to try. They were pretty tasty and unique flavors. The sweet corn was... actually pretty good. I was disappointed they were so small and were not served with any salsa. A little over priced for theportion. We had a beer too and that was nice. Read more

Great place to get empanadas. I ordered a wide range to try out. I was not disappointed with any of them. There are a few that... are worth getting once but don?t see myself getting again. Then there are others that are a must every time we go. I orderedahead online, my pickup was ready ahead of the time slot I was given which was great. The only issue was that they forgot mydessert and it was pouring rain that I had to walk back thru to get it. Read more

Eclectic mix of empanada fillings. Ordered several to try and most were delicious. After ordering at counter, they were... delivered by a man from the kitchen who dropped them off in a hurry. As a first-timer I called out "how do we know which iswhich?" as they were served all together on a single plate for two of us. He stated they were stamped with acronyms and movedthe acronym legend on our table closer to our eyes. It was blank and I said so, then he grabbed one from the counter and slappedit onto our table and disappeared back to the kitchen. This happened in 10 seconds. We were the only customers in the place, sothere was no rush. We were left with the distinct feeling we're not welcome. Read more

Service was fast & helpful. Restaurant was clean, well laid-out, and comfortable. Empanadas were amazing & fresh. The... bacon/date/goat cheese was my favorite. Bonus points for having almost everything be re-usuable (cups, mugs, silverware) insteadof single-use. Read more
