Loaded Empanadas and Tapas in Boca Park

Overall good service from waiting staff. The presentation was nice, the food came out on tiers with sparklers and an Employee with a bubble gun. The food was decent as far as taste but it did come out cold. The food were plated on paper plates which the hot honey chicken stuck to like glue, lol I’m pretty sure I ate some of the plate. The water is unfiltered and has a weird taste. Price is high for what you get, overall 2/10.

The staff has been so welcoming and attentive both time we have been in. Marcus took care of us tonight and was fantastic. The food is fresh and so flavorful. They make the presentation of their food so fun. I would definitely recommend dining here, and we will be back more frequently.

Today , we have enjoyed our lunch at Loaded Empanadas, a new trendy spot at Boca Park,Las Vegas, and it was a great experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and vibrant. Everything was super clean and we enjoyed dinning in the modern contemporary style. The restaurant is beautifully decorated with gorgeous murals on the walls, it feels very glamorous and elegant atmosphere. A lot of their dishes are served with sparklers with a great presentation, which makes it perfect for the Instagram pictures . It also makes you feel so special,like if it's a special event. The service was amazing ,making the entire dining experience top notch! We have met the owner, Ana and her husband, they were very nice and welcoming ! They really made us feel so welcomed and special. The manager Ricardo was so friendly and made sure we were taken care of. On top of all this, the food was amazing. Best empanadas we've had in town. The veggie empanadas are our favorite. The crème brûlée empanada is a must try for dessert and sangrias were delicious as well. The empanadas were absolutely delicious, crispy on the outside and packed with flavor on the inside. Each bite was a perfect balance of savory fillings, and the variety they offer is incredible! They also came with a dipping sauce that paired perfectly. You can especially never go wrong with their bacon wrapped dates! They also have gluten free and vegan friendly tapas! If you are looking for something on the lighter side, their salad wraps are also great! Overall: Super fun experience! Delicious food, exceptional and attentive service. We highly recommend it!!!

The Happy Hour is my favorite thing about this place!! It’s everyday from 8pm-10pm. Everything is reasonably priced, and everything is so good!! The Philly is my favorite, and you can’t forget about the desserts!! They have a great banana foster empanada, which is a must have!!! The atmosphere is absolutely beautiful and calm, and the way they serve the food is next level!! Either order at a kiosk, or through the cashier and it is brought out to your table, no problem!

Loved this Ive never been impressed by empanadas but these ones were good!!! The dough from the empanadas weren’t very thick & the stuffing just enough!! We did the tower with 4 different flavors; Cubano, magic mojo, philly were some of the popular flavor. The Roberto our server was very nice!!

Had a great experience here. First timers Served by Jesus..he was amazing. From the moment we came in very welcoming and vibrant. Music was great. Food was delicious. Ordered mushroom and veggie!!!

Fresh! This place emphasizes on healthy ingredients and attention to detail. Known for their number one empanadas, the creme Brule empanadas, this restaurant has mastered the concept of empanadas. They also have other options of dishes to choose from. If you love empanadas, then the creme Brule empanadas is one definitely worth trying. You won't be disappointed. The atmosphere was beautiful, pleasant, and inviting.

This place is incredible! The bread on the empanadas is outstanding—sweet, soft, and so delicious. The prime cuts of meat are amazing, sourced from their other restaurant, Via Brasil. I highly recommend this spot to everyone!

The food was EXCELLENT! The service felt authentic and by authentic I mean Latin. The servers were attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. I had the passion chicken lunch combo, with loaded rice and a lemonade. My partner had the magic mushroom mushroom soup and a Coke Zero. Everything was Da Bomb!! Romantic music wafted through the air and into my ears setting a tone of freedom and relaxation. Did I say the staff was great. If I didn't let me say that the staff was GREAT!! If I have to put a drawback, it would be that there isn't one in my home town. C'est la vie! For those of you who follow me or who have read anything I have written you know my catchphrase I vote with my dollars and my feet and any time I'm in Nevada. You can bet your bottom dollar they will both be here beyond a shadow of a doubt, let me say if you haven't been to loaded empanadas on 750 South Rampart Blvd. I would beat feet over there yesterday!

Service was exceptional. McKevin was amazing The restaurant was so CLEAN. Loved the large sparkler on the tray that came out. The little bit of theatre added to the fun of the meal. Ordered the chicken passion and Cubano. Both were so moist. The pastry was the correct amount of crunch

Absolutely 5 stars 10 out of 10! This place is a gem! The loaded empanadas are beyond amazing, OMG !!!- the perfect balance of crispy on the outside and bursting with flavor on the inside. The variety of fillings is incredible, and each one is cooked to perfection. What really sets this restaurant apart, though, is Anna, the owner. She's incredibly welcoming, kind, and clearly passionate about her craft. You can feel her love for the food in every bite. They way she acknowledge every thing about her customers and staff is impressive. Whether you're a regular or a first-timer, Anna and her staff makes sure you feel like family. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving delicious, authentic empanadas! Perfect place for lunch with friends Date night or just because. We love loaded Empanadas

Good food, bad owner. Anna Gomes is ok with her manager Jeffrey sexually harassing her 17 year old employee and attempting to have her drink an alcoholic beverage. Anna is in complete denial and won't even speak to the young woman about what happened.

I stopped in here when they first opened, but had already ate next door so I just checked it out. I definitely bookmarked it and was excited to return. Fast forward I met my fellow Yelper and friend Joanna V. for brunch on a late Saturday morning. They had just opened and we were greeted with warmth and friendliness from the staff. The interior is decorated with such a flair. They have seating both down and upstairs. Due to visiting during the holidays, the restaurant looked very festive which made our experience that much better. We took a few minutes viewing the menu and I asked for recommendations from the staff on what their favorites might be. They serve a variety of empanadas along with tapas, soups, salads, and some interesting sides like Magic Beans...hmmmm I must try these in the future. These empanadas provide flavors from Spain, Cuba, Argentina and Brazil along with a unique Sangria Bar. I decided to try The Philly (a recommendation) which consisted of Beef Short Rib, shallots, mushroom and cheese with a spicy tomatillo sauce and I also was able to try one of my friends Magic Mushroom. Both of these empanadas were so tasty, but I truly loved The Philly. Flavors were so on point. We also tried the roasted cauiflower featured cauliflower, garlic, paprika and chimichurri sauce. Parking can be a challenge as they are located in the busy Boca Park Fashion Village. Service was excellent and we were checked on several times. I look forward to returning and trying out more empanadas along with eating The Philly again.

The manager here is a predator and pedophile. Took my niece who worked there out to a "private dinner" and tried to get her to drink alcohol when she's a minor. I'm so disgusted by this behavior and even more so disappointed with the owner who is just letting this go. Do not go to this location, please don't support this type of predatory behavior.

Yes, I'm impressed with the aesthetics. I first noticed the wooden flooring with the appearance of worn blue paint. It worked well. The dining arrangement easily seats 2-4 per table except if you get the nook area. I'm sure they can manage putting tables together for larger parties; plus there's a space in their loft upstairs. The empanadas are from what I take Argentinian and Brazilian inspirations. We got droolsome mushroom and Philly with an app of flavorful cauliflower. Each empanada order comes with two generously filled pieces. I shared my mushroom ones which came with chimichuri sauce. I could've had another piece! We had dined when they opened that late morning. Their service and attentiveness were superb - answering questions and inviting us for our first experience. The vibe is comfy casual. Great place for a short get-together, delicious food and drinks, excellent service!

New empanada spot at Boca park serving Argentinean style empanadas Pros - fast and friendly service. Spacious interior with music and ample seating. Good variety of empanada fillings and they even offer a sampler. Cons - After traveling and eating across South America, I felt that the flavors of the empanadas here are average. Good, but nothing amazing. Decent empanada spot for a quick bite.

Service was quick, we were told about the specials they had available and we had our order taken once we decided on the special of the day which was an order of choice of two empanadas, a side and a drink for $20.00. Everything was wonderful, tasty and very filling. Once we walked thru the door it was a lot bigger than it gave the impression of being from what you see on the outside. They will be having a special for Super Bowl Sunday and a Valentines Special for the weekend of. Hubby and I will definitely be back. Thank you for the food and helping us decide with all the tasty offerings.

Food was Amazing and Delicious, From our Server, Jesus to the meal presentation was Superb and Jesus gave us great recommendations and it was on point. We ordered The Mushroom, Cubano and The Philly and the Dessert Empanada was just Amazing. We will be back Food and Service was Excellent. The Restaurant is Cozy and Beautiful with a second floor dining area.

This place is such a hidden gem! Their empanadas are so good! Each empanadas dish comes with 2 empanadas. I highly recommend the Philly. Also, the cheese dice is a must! A lot of their dishes are served with sparklers and a great presentation, which makes for a great, Instagram-worthy post! It also makes you feel so special if it's a special event. The owner, Anna, is so nice and attentive! She really made us feel so welcomed and special, even though she had an entire restaurant to run! She even gave us a few things on the house to try, which was SO KIND!! 5 star service!! The rest of the staff were really fun and friendly as well. We didn't order any drinks, but will definitely be back to try some. The size of the restaurant is deceiving, because they have plenty of room both upstairs and downstairs. A lot of restaurants have great presentation, but the quality of the food isn't all that, but that's not the case here. Everything is great here- from the homey feel, the fun presentation, and the taste of the food!

Saw this restaurant on Instagram & the wife decided to bring me here for a Birthday lunch. Located in Boca Park plaza. I had the Cubano & my wife had the Tropical Sea. We also ordered the Bacon wrapped dates. It was all sooo delish! We got the seasoned French Fries & Tomato Bisque. For dessert we ordered the Crème Brûlée empanada. Also very tasty. Staff was very friendly & inviting & we will certainly be back to try other choices here. Definitely a must to visit. Thank you.

Walking in, we found the ambiance to be very spirited and welcoming. The server, Jesus, was very friendly and sat us right away. We found the prices to be very fair and the portions a good size. Out of the two drinks we ordered, we enjoyed the Lychee Sangria the most (green one in the pic). All of the food was delicious. We had both, the Seafood & the Mushroom Empanadas, the Calamari, the Broccoli, The Tapioca Cheese Cubes and the Roasted Cauliflower. We feel the exterior of the Empanadas could have been just a little bit more well done and flaky.. but they were both still very delicious. If you like your empanadas brown and crunchy, I would request this when you order. Overall, it was YUM! We'll be back.

Had lunch here today! What a cool space. The food was so delicious. Empadandas, out of the box for me... but will definitely be a repeat customer. Soooo yummy! Great service as well.

The restaurant was a tight squeeze but very cute and modern. It has a second floor that looks like you can accommodate small parties. The service was amazing. I asked for the grand experience and I definitely got it. Even though we were alone on the 2nd floor they managed to consistently check on us to see if we needed anything. The presentation of the food and drinks was fun and cute. They even have someone using a bubble gun behind the server with our food and drinks that also came with sparklers. The food was beautifully presented and the flavors was amazing. I would definitely come here again. Thank you for the great service and experience!

My mom and I came to try this place after driving by many times. You have to order at the counter through a screen. We both split the Philly and Tropical Sea. I enjoyed the Philly way more because in the tropical sea you couldn't even taste any of the shrimp. It was very mushy inside and I thought I was going to get whole shrimps. Not sure what they did with the shrimp, but why was it mushy? Was very disappointed to be honest. I didn't even want to finish it. I have to come back sometime to try other ones.

My friends and I decided to try this place since it was new for all of us. We were warmly greeted when we walked in. The place is bright and cheerful. After we were seated we were given menus and decided on the $20 lunch special. It sounds like a lot, but I don't mind spending if the food is good. You can choose from 6 flavors of empanadas for the lunch special. You get 2, but they have to be the same flavor. They got Cubanos and I got the Philly. It comes with a side and refillable soda. The sides we ordered were French fries, cilantro lime rice, and garlic broccoli. All were very good, except no one wanted to try my broccoli because they dislike broccoli. No problem, I didn't have to share and I enjoyed it. Our server brought our orders to us in a fun display with a torch candle. We were checked on by our server and the manager and had a pleasant experience. The empanadas were stuffed full of the fillings and the crust was a nice texture. My friend LOVES empanadas and thought they were very good.

This place is incredible! Great food, amazing service and just a really cool atmosphere. The empanadas are awesome and we loved the Yum Yum broccoli! Everyone should try this place.

Beautiful restaurant with a great food, Such a great service, The server was very friendly, Consistently One of the best restaurant, highly recommended! One of my favorite empanadas is the crème brûlée empanada

It was ok lots of gimmicks bubbles & firework candle when ordering 3 or more empanadas!, Nice coffee cart outside door with free coffee. Probably won't be back, it's a drive out of my way.

Overall it was a good experience, we tried 4 different varieties of their empanadas.. Came in with a party of 6, the speed and accuracy of the food was good.. not great but a solid service experience Food was fresh, but the flavor of the shrimp empanadas along with the one of the dessert options left us a little disappointed. Freindly and clean, but the ratio of breading to filling is the major issue we had..

It starts with some costumed individual with a light beckoning you in then lends itself to a casual well appointed space, and then the ambiance begins to spiral into something very off putting and disjointed. No hostess that day, so we were a bit nomadic, but only for a short period of time. No servers, so you can order from the counter or off a QR code at your table and enjoy the self serve fast food at sit down prices, even down to the plastic silverware. All the sangrias on the counter didn't really call out to be tasted, so we passed. Some meals came with sparklers brought out by overly hyped bouncy runners, which well, whatever, but when those sparklers went out, the sulphuric stench that permeated the air was lingering and nauseating. The person running through blowing bubbles also initiated another WTF moment. The dine in experience is best described as a Chuck E. Cheese empanada night. Now for the best part, we had The Cubano, Passion Chicken, The Maze Ball, The Philly, & Bacon Wrapped Dates. All the fillings of the empanadas and their accompanying sauces were tasty, but the crust was a bit too doughy. The grossly overpriced bacon wrapped dates ($13 for 3 dates) were underwhelming, no need to ever revisit those again. I don't think this place knows what it wants to be when it grows up. I don't think I have the patience or the interest to find out and if I did it would be for takeout only.

Superb Service and Food! We are visiting from out of town and decided to give Loaded Empanads a try. Yummy! We left so full! We got to try alot of goodies! My favorite was the shrimp empanadas! Everything was so good. Dessert was top notch! They bring out your food on the coolest little trays with a sparkler on top! So cute! The employees are so wonderful. They really care about the customer experience! Give them a shot you won't be disappointed!

I thought about not giving Loaded Empanadas a review. It's one of those experiences that I didn't want to share because obviously once the word of mouth goes around the wait time to get seated is horrendous. You get the point... Then I thought,"food was delicious and service as great as Loaded Empanadas must be shared!" Our waiter and staff were very welcoming. The ambiance felt warm and lively. The menu and suggestions on what to order made it easy for my company and I to know what we wanted quickly. We ordered empanadas 2-ways, one was mushrooms (I will order again) and the other Philly cheese. Also ordered garlic steak (cooked as requested ), bacon wrapped dates, fries, tapioca cheese (Yum), and churros (double fresh and Yum). They presented our food with a sparkler and bubbles!! Just in case you're wondering, the bubbles are non-toxic and edible. We'll definitely visit again - so I say, "check it out, relax, enjoy the meal, and the friendly staff!"

Our experience at this restaurant can be summed up by one word...confusing. The server who greeted us was amazing, very nice and walked us through the whole menu. Everything from there was downhill. First the plates - everything is served on paper plates and paper bowls. Great for a food truck, strange for a restaurant that charges more than $30 a head, especially one that seems to place such importance on presentation (I'm sure their Instagram is very nice). Everything is served with sparklers...everything down to the smallest dessert. Because of this the restaurant has a campfire-like smell that plagued my sinuses for hours afterwards. The service was oddly inconsistent, non-existent for us, while other tables were attended to constantly and given free wine, desserts, and even free meals for minor grievances. The food - some things were good, others bad, some blah. The tomato soup tasted like it came from a can, and the "loaded" rice essentially consisted of white rice with frozen mixed vegetables. The garlic steak, recommended by a waiter who we never saw again, was cold but the flavor was surprisingly good. The empanada was the star, 4/5 stars, and the chocolate mousse...we'll never know because they brought us churros (with sparkler of course) by mistake and we were too exhausted by this point to mention it. Safe to say we won't be back, but the strangeness itself is almost worth the price of admission. Who knows, maybe you'll even get your mousse.

The food and service was amazing. I went with a couple of friends on Wednesday 3-5-25 and we were treated like royalty. The presentation was amazing for the empanada tower. The drinks were delicious and strong. I would go back again in a heartbeat. My favorite by far was the crème brûlée empanada.

The food and presentations are show stoppers. Very impressive. Weekends they have a dj playing reggaeton. If that's your genre you're in...if not maybe during the week.

This place is crazy good. It's hidden between two larger chain restaurants that we usually frequent but tonight we decided to try something different, and it was totally worth it. I recommend the passion chicken empanada or the "magic mojo" if you like something sweet and savory. If you're into spicy, try the shrimp al ajillo. Can't wait to come back and try more. We felt like VIP's since the service was fast and the management was very attentive as well, but I guess they've been open since September. Love it!

Great food, but unfortunate that this place of business supports sexual harassment of female employees. I am disgusted with the manager Jefferey and how he conducts "business" with minors. It is also quite disturbing that the owner Anna is completely oblivious and in denial that she has a predator of a manager, but I guess she has to run her business at all cost while the female employees suffer in silence and are accused of lying. We can no longer support this business.

Looking for a trendy upscale empanadas place with a lounge vibe? You have found it! This is place is well decorated and inviting. it also included seasonal decor which was fun for the Fall! The food was great, some of the best empanadas that we have ever had. They had plenty of options which included: meat, veggie, chicken, and food options. My absolutely favorite was the 'Maze Balls', which was a delicious combination of meatballs, manchego cheese, and caramelized onions. in addition to the empanadas, they had Spanish style tapas. You can especially never go wrong with their bacon wrapped in dates! They also had gluten free and vegan friendly tapas! If you are looking for something in the lighter side, their salad wraps are also great! This restaurant serves as a place for a Latin night as they had a DJ playing Reggaeton music. You may find some dancing right outside the front patio! They have some great and unique sangria options,especially the gummy berry, which even included gummy bears. What I liked most, was that this place was accommodating to kids! They had high chairs and kids cups! The owner made my kids a non alcoholic version of the 'gummy berry' in a cute kids cup! I will for sure be back!

Spontaneously stopped into here because they were open late and we were thirsty. The gentleman who helped us (he is from Amsterdam) was very friendly. The churros were SO delicious that we didn't even really use the dipping sauces. The crème brûlée empanada was also not bad. Will be back if we happen to be in the area.

Celebrated my birthday here what a vibe!!!!! My favorite new spot. Passion Chicken Empanadas I could eat them everyday. Churros were definitely the best I've ever had. Staff was engaging and the owner was very present. Let's not forget the sparklers and bubbles

Celebrated my 70th birthday there today with friends! It's not just a place to get great empanadas it's a whole dining experience! Jesus our waiter was phenomenal, explained all the different items on the menu, we started with sangrias then ordered the shrimp, short rib and chicken empanadas with rice and garlic broccoli. The sauces paired with each type of empanada were delicious! Can't wait to go back!

Went at lunchtime with a friend. Ordered mushroom empanadas, garlic steak off the tapas part of the menu and friend ordered 3 empanadas - meatball, chicken, and philly as well as the rice and flan for dessert. It was okay. The mushroom empanadas were good. I liked the flavor of the filling. The pastry was flaky. The meatball one is a no for me. The chicken one with mango and passionfruit was meh. The philly was disappointing. The garlic steak was difficult to cut with a flimsy plastic fork even though you get a real steak knife so the pieces I could cut it into were larger than I wanted and very chewy. The rice was good. The flan was okay. The place is cute with long but comfy benches with pillows for the back to sit. The service was fine too. I can't say I'd be back though.

I love coming to Loaded Empanadas. Their food is made fresh you can taste the fresh ingredients. The restaurant is beautiful with murals throughout. The staff and owner is very friendly. You are greeted with a smile as soon as you walk in. Perfect for a date night or a night out with your girls. I definitely recommend this place.

Awesome new place for a quick bite! Tried the Passionberry sangria, perfectly balanced! The empanadas had a great dough and fillings. Such a cute place, we will come back for the tapas! Service was amazing!

Cute place and good idea but the owner was very opposed to all of our suggestion for improvements -says "we don't want to copy others" well to be honest it was terrible. The loaded rice was so plain boring lame like I could have made all this myself Absolutely nothing special and- It was over $100 for two people to eat on cardboard plates w plastic cutlery no way man skip it!!! One star for hot food, one star for the fireworks but that left us choking on the smoke anyway so.... thumbs down sorry people.

Let's start with service., service is great. Now the food, as a Latino who had empanadas all over, this was a poor version of it. Dough was under cooked, I ordered the cubano and the Philly & the steak plate. Steak was full of grisly fat not one piece was actual meat. Overall I'm never coming back here. It's over priced and to eat with paper plates and plastic fork and knife, is not worth it not to mention. Wasteful. Cafeteria type set up with ordering ahead no waiter just food drop off to wherever your eating. ***STAY AWAY***

What a show, what great quality empanadas. From the hip Vegas style ambience to the quality of a creme brûlée empanada. This is your hang out for drinks, empanadas and incredible desserts. The creme brûlée empanada was amazing. My favorite meat one was probably the Philly cheese steak. But only tried a few flavors.

The one star I for the beautiful Ambience of the place. Services was ok if you like the server hovering over you and staying at your table as we are getting our money together to pay. Oh and I'm positive they didn't hire a dishwasher because everything is paper plates, and plastic utensils :( Food was not as good as I was hoping. DONT order the red potatoes they were old :(

Ricardo and the staff gave us one of the most amazing experiences I could ask for! The food was amazingly delicious and the meat was my favorite marinated in garlic and the honey chicken. The food coming out was amazing looking with a nice presentation and we loved the ambiance upon entering, we loved the Sade playing and the chill vibe

I love to try new places and to use coupons so this place checked off those two boxes. I went with a friend and we ordered the Maze Balls empanadas (all beef with caramelized onion and cheese) and Tropical Sea empanadas (sweet maple glazed shrimp with caramelized pineapple and peppers) served with a spicy remoulade sauce. They were both delicious. We also ordered the seasoned fries which were not that great. Would definitely go back for the empanadas. Service was very attentive.

1st of all, the service that we got at this restaurant deserves 5 stars for the whole review. The owner, Anna, was so welcoming and open to suggestions and was so kind to bring us complimentary desserts and coffee. My friend and I got to the Cubano empanadas and the Tapioca Cheesy Dice. And everything's was so delicious. I love this spot for a lowkey date night or a dinner with friends. Will be back again :)

Food Check, service check, ambiance check! Their Empanadas are amazing and a must try. A cozy place to unwind after work with friends or family.

Super fun experience! Delicious food, exceptional service and flair to top it off! Food comes out sparkling, pitcher drink comes topped with fruit, fancy decanter, flare AND bubbles! Service is upbeat, attentive and engaging. All around fun atmosphere, absolutely will be back!

My family and I were not pleased with the experience. We spent 120 dollars. The food was a 3 out of 5. The utensil and dishes were plastic and paper plates. My latte was half foam and half coffee, as I sipped there was coffee grounds in the drink. The aesthetic is amazing. My family and I used to go to the location when it was SunnySideUp. We loved it and thought we would visit for brunch because we love a good empanada. It's definitely a one stop for us. If the prices were 30 percent cheaper and served us on real tableware, maybe we would return. There is barely any person to person interaction, and then you're asked for a tip up front. Which we felt was low class. We don't know what type of service we were going to get and to be prompted to pay a tip in the beginning is crazy.

Unusual tapas/small dishes. Newly opened. Modern decor. DJ and not too loud. Greeter/server Flavio was outstanding. Helped us choose dishes. My mushroom empanadas were delicious. My daughter had a veggie bomb. We tasted each other's food; super! Daughter had churros and I flan for dessert. I am familiar with Cuban food. Met Anna, owner/manager who couldn't have been more cordial. She recommended Via Brazil. We plan on going there for brunch next Sunday. My daughter has never had Brazilian food and is looking forward to a special meal. Would recommend the restaurant to family and friends.

Loaded Empanada is a gem! From the Empanada section, we tried The Cubano, The Philly, and Magic Mushroom. Each one was bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. We also ordered a few items from the Tapas menu--Garlic Steak, Popcorn Calamari, and Bacon-Wrapped Dates. Every dish was absolutely delicious and perfectly seasoned. The highlight of our visit was meeting the owner, Anna. She was incredibly personable and made us feel right at home. The customer service here is truly top-notch, making the whole experience even better. I'll definitely be coming back for more! If you're looking for great food and exceptional service, Loaded Empanada is the place to go.
