Maria slinging them ready to go empanadas. Little hand pies for your little stomach. Don’t let your little stomach go without a little hand pie. My little stomach chose an Argentina empanada and it was dang good.

Truly delicious empanadas and friendly service. The egg and potato empanada was so flavorful and the sauces they have are great! My pricing is because I got drinks and a sweet cookie treat that I would not pass up!
