This establishment offers a delightful ambiance. Although the service was a bit slow due to the high volume of customers, the empanadas were exceptionally delicious; I particularly enjoyed the shrimp empanada. The entraña, a cut of meat, was incredibly tender, and with a touch of chimichurri, the flavors were truly outstanding. It is a lovely place to visit, romantic and tastefully decorated.

Visitor notes
I haven't been here in years, but on several occasions she smelled garlic when we drove by and agreed we'd visit. Last Friday was the night. We ordered four different empanadas. She had the steak and I had the chicken accompanied by a few beers. We were the only ones there which is never a good sign for. The service was good and the atmosphere was nice as ever. but the flavors in the food were lacking. The pictures look great, but only the spinach empanadas made the cut. Luckily the sauces were still on point. My chicken was a little dry and didn't have a lot of flavor. Her steak looked beautiful but also didn't taste like much. It could have just been a bad time of the day but the flavors weren't there for me even when I tasted them as leftovers the next day. It was $140 tab for a meal we didn't really enjoy.
Delicious food! Just recently had dinner. I haven't been here in over 6 years and this place never disappoints. Skirt steak cooked to perfection with so much flavor & mashed potatoes are my go to every time . Shrimp empanadas are amazing
Fantastic and welcoming atmosphere. were provided with free bread and spread, l don’t know the name of the two spreads, one is with rich herbal flavor and was blended so well with the olive oil, the other one with a fresh lime flavor, both of them matched so well with the bread. We ordered a comb, in which meat was tender and well seasoned, like the shrimp the most, especially its gravy. Also got the free gift dessert as our first visit here. Great experience, 100% recommend!
Nice place, dim lights. Live music on Thursdays the waiter said. Food, empanadas are crispy, fresh, and good. The place wasn't busy on a Sunday night which was good. Desserts 🍪 delicious.
Visiting from out of town and stumbled upon this restaurant as we were in the area. Good food although those around us (larger parties who ordered after us) were served before us. Drinks were a hit and loved all the decor. Please remember to order dessert!
Was looking for some empanadas locally and saw this place, I didn't expect it to be so fancy going in. We got in and sat down, no one else was there, and we ordered some empanadas cause they have a Thursday deal. By the time we finished the empanadas, we were ready to head out and the waiters snidely commented on us having "just a short visit." Overall, the atmosphere felt slightly hostile for that, and the food was fine but mozzarella for an empanada just overpowers the other flavors too much. Definitely alright, but I won't be coming back.
Loved the skirt steak here! A very friendly restaurant/bar serving great steaks at reasonable prices. We were surprised by live music, which was very good! So good we even got up to dance at the behest of other patrons who were very welcoming. The highlight food wise was definitely the Entraña with fries. Just a really well treated piece of meat. I would highly recommend giving this place a try, especially on a thursday night.
