This place is simply delicious! We were walking by from getting boba when we got a whiff of what can only be described as sweet spicy! We walked in and it was clean and inviting. There was only one person working that day and she was incredibly friendly. We got an apple cinnamon and a pinadelphia a sweet and creamy empanada filled with cream cheese! My personal favorite was that one and they heated it up so the cream cheese was so soft! We got a few of us all try to and we all loved them. I especially appreciated that it's the first location while the other two are located in Mexico!

Empanadas is their specialty, and boy, are they spectacular! Words cannot describe how delicious the empanadas just are! Between my husband and I, we tried the beef, chicken, beef & cheese, pepperoni & cheese, and Philly cheese steak. All of them were uniformly amazing! You can't go wrong at La Empanaderia! Highly recommended, and we most definitely will be returning! 5/5

It's 12:20 on a Wednesday. How are you out of so many types of empanadas. Also why is everything premade??? Walked out without ordering.

Wow this is way better than anticipated! So right now there is terrible construction going on right in front of the store so it is not easy to maneuver into the parking area, but it is well worth it. They have many choices of fillings that are beautifully wrapped in a delicious pastry and branded on the top so you know what is what.My favorite was the hamburger in the big, round empanada crust. My other favorite was the pineapple- not overly sweet like the ones you get at a bakery- this was just right.The price seems steep at over $4 for an empanada, but they are much larger than the small ones at some restaurants. Everything I got was so good. Tip: if you don't want to try to drive there with the construction, some food delivery services do deliver from there- sweet!

Delicious empanadas. I got a combo with 3 empanadas, one sauce and one drink and I paid a bit over $11. The first one I had was the beef habanero. The beef was good and the habanero gave it a nice kick. Not overly spicy at all. Perfect balance. The humita is vegetarian and it was good. The chimichurri sauce is oil with vinegar and spices like oregano. It is a traditional Argentinian sauce. Good choice for the beef habanero empanada. The third one was the pinadelphia, it has chunks of pineapple with Philadelphia cheese but I expected more filling. It is not overly sweet, so a good way to finish to my meal. Glad I was on the west side of town to be able to stop here. Even though i live on the east side, I will be making special trips to get me some empanadas. Good food!I did go back for more empanadas and tried different ones this time. The best one was the chicken Buffalo.

So happy to see a good empanada restaurant in town, even if it is on the other (west) side of town! The menu has lots of variety to choose from and is very clear with detailed descriptions for each! So many delicious pockets of baked food goodness to choose from! Dropped by and was happy to see so many "Ready to go" options available!Tried to get one of as many that were available to see what we liked best! Opted for (BCH) Beef & Cheese, a (CHO) Chorizo & Cheese, (PP) Pepperoni & Cheese, (HBC) Ham & Bacon & Cheese, (PH) Philly Cheesesteak, (BBQ) BBQ Pulled Pork from the MEATS; (S) Spinach & Cheese from the VEGGIES; (SH) Shrimp & Chipotle from the SEAFOOD and one of each of the SWEETS - (N) Nutella, (AC) Apple & Cinnamon, (LQ) Leche Quemada, (PN) Pinadelphia.One family salad came with the order of a dozen. The salad is coleslaw style. We loved all of the empanadas - no complaints about ANY of the options we had to choose from! Some of our favorites included the Philly Cheesesteak, BBQ Pulled Pork, Pepperoni & Cheese and Beef & Cheese. All of the desert options were very good too!Looking forward to going back again and trying the options we didn't get to try this time around. Highly recommend this place for tasty baked empanadas!

So you have to be really into empanadas. They do have several different types of sweet and regular food ones. My wife and I tried the dessert ones. I had the Piñadelphia. I liked it. The dough flavor is really good; the filling was pretty good but I feel like the fruit should be mashed a little more and a little bit more cream cheese. My wife had the Leche Quemada. She really liked it. I tasted a tiny bite and it was pretty good. They have a bit bigger menu when you go to the place but the ONLY gripe I have is that the empanadas are not big at all. I figured for $3.69 each it would be a little bigger. I would pay 2.50 for them. I will go back to try the other ones but not something I would get often.

food is overpriced, they literally heat it up in the microwave in front of you, the female stood around talking the whole time, no sides available, the guy had a don't give a shit attitude. Sides took longer than the empanadas and the empanadas weren't even that great. I've never had red Mac and cheese, must be an El Paso thing.

7 Walking in to a new "restaurant" is always tough especially when you have high expectations after reading good reviews of a place. There is seating for about 22 individuals in this establishment I asked the cashier for recommendations and didn't show much interest in any of the options. I went ahead and ordered the Beef and Habanero, Pepperoni and Cheese, Mushroom and Cheese, Pinadelphia.All ok, possibly not going back.

We ordered takeout last weekend, and ended up throwing most of the food away. The empanadas were very hard and the Mac and cheese was dry (threw out the entire container). I don't like to leave a negative review - perhaps we just caught the last food at the end of the night but it was bad.
