After a long day at the Baloboa Park we wandered past the San Diego High School and City college down Park Street and decided to... walk towards the downtown on C Street. We saw this beautifully painted bright yellow store front and decided to give it a shot.From the outside walking in, the mouth-watering smell of the kitchen smells lured us in this lambently lit area. There's acouple of see-thru display showcasing the empanadas so you can pick exactly which one you want. The excellent options of flavorsis very broad. They offer vegetarian, beef, chicken, mushroom, lamb and more! We tried the chicken, ratatouille veggie and beefempanadas. They are the best empanadas I've had! The chimichurri sauce both spicy and regular are very delightful! The spicy isperfect. I recommend everyone to go here and try this out. Read more

Quick service and yummy baked empanadas. They have different specials, too. Empanadas can come with spicy or regular... chimichurri. I tried the special spicy shrimp which was excellent - full of flavor and sauce and not too spicy. The corn & basilempanada was also very good though not a ton of basil in it - but still very enjoyable. Read more

Lots of different texture and flavor combinations in each empanada. I'd recommend getting a combination to get a taste of... everything. Read more

Best empanadas I?ve had. Larger than typical (3 is plenty) with great breading. Beef - 9/10. Almost didn?t order this one since... i thought it was basic, but it was very flavorful with the chimichurri sauce. Mushroom & Goat cheese - 10/10 phenomenal. Greatbalance between the two flavors and outstanding texture. Lamb - 7/10. Seems to be the most popular on here, and while I lovelamb and this had a delicious lamb flavor, I thought it could?ve been a bit more tender/juicy. Don?t get me wrong, it was stillgreat, hence the 7/10. Read more

Very cute and eye catching restaurant that offers the best empanadas I?ve ever had. Caprese and lamb are highly... recommended. Hopefully they?ll use non-disposable utensils for dine-in guests though. Read more
