Makus Empanadas

If you are a company in the RTP area you should absolutely put Makus on your rotation!!! We have had several catered lunches and they are always top notch. The variation is incredible and the service is unmatched! I HIGHLY recommend the pepperoni or onion and cheese! Light and crispy. Nothing too heavy that you need to take a nap after lunch and of course....Incredibly delicious. Local is best!!!!

This place is a safe place to eat for those in our family with allergies that we trust to eat and we have never had any issues eating here. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about their menu. The food is always yummy and made fresh. There are various empanada flavor options so you are bound to find something that you like. We will definitely be eating here again!

As far as Empanadas go, these were just OK. These were not bursting with flavor and they were kind of small. The dough was good, but not great. I like a flakier "shell" so maybe that's why I wasn't a huge fan. OK is just 3 stars.I live in Florida where there are many different kinds of empanadas, and out of all of the ones I've had, these Makus ones were the smallest. The chimichurri sauce was good though.

I waited in front for about 5 minutes while a worker (alone) stocked and cleaned. I don't know whether she thought I was looking at the menu or what. A gentleman walked up and before he could get his self around the corner to the register I asked for 1 empanada. He rang me up with only saying "we will call you when it is done". I know it is a small place but can I get a thank you or something. At this point another young lady came. I waited in the middle seat for him and about 5 minutes later I received my empanada. It was hot but dry. Was this helpful? Did you love? Or is this a oh no?

I used to like Makus. I want to say this place has been there since Morgan Food Hall first opened. The flavor for the most part remains good but just nothing amazing, especially not for the size and price of each empanada. I feel like the filling is much smaller as well. The sauces aren't free with each empanada (0.75/ small sauce). Didn't quite help that the girl taking my order absolutely didn't feel like serving me or anyone else really.

Service was very slow and cashier was very confused on what the kitchen was doing. Thank goodness the empanadas were labeled. She was forgetting orders, drinks, silverware, etc. I did not feel well hours after eating here and had not eaten before hand. If I am in the area, I do not think I will return.

I ordered just one empanada. I just wanted to taste them before I bought more. I ordered a ham and cheese. Yes, the server did mention they are small. I'm okay with that, it had more cheese than ham. The flavor could be better. I'll give them another try

This is our second time here.Today we ordered a kids meal which consists of an empanada, cookie and a drink.I ordered a pork and chimichurri empanada.The empanadas are small and it can have more flavor. The sauce was very oily.Service is fast but being Colombian my expectations are high.Not sure I will be back..

So, I'm not sure how I felt about this place. They had a "lunch meal" that I ordered. You picked two empanadas which, I am a huge fan of, these breads and a drink. The empanadas were very small, the cheese was good but I ordered a chicken one and I'm not sure if that is what I was given. It was mushy and did not smell like chicken. I eat chicken empanadas all the time and I don't think that what I was given. The little bread bites were tasty but the meal was small.

The empanada was much smaller than expected. It was nice & crispy on the outside, but unfortunately the beef inside was not good.
