Best empanadas in the FiDi area! Love the wide variety of clearly-labeled vegetarian options. The five-pepper manchego and sweet corn are really solid veggie options. I've heard great things about the salteña beef as well. The alfajores are always a nice sweet treat for dessert, the soft texture is delightful. They heat up your empanadas to order in the oven so they are always fresh and perfectly warmed. This can mean that there can be a wait if there are a lot of folks in line. It's worth the wait in my opinion!
