Argentinian Empanadas and desserts that are to die for! Crave worthy return in order for the beef empanada and the dessert: pastel( round crisp flaky layered pastry with guava and dulce de leche layers ) I wish they made a larger one to utilize as a pie like item for parties and special occassions! Two locations ; 1. across from New Tech High ; Napa 2. South San Francisco You must try Frozen packs of empanadas available for at home baking Chimichurri sauce is also fabulous and available for sale separately There are many other desserts and empanadas to try noteworthy: meticulous attention to detail right down to a special rubber stamp on paper bags indicating type of empanada or item seating: very small patio and tiny sit up bar at the store front window ... parking "street" All too yummy and we devoured the food items so no photos read more

I got so excited seeing an Argentinian empanadas place! When we got there, we saw that it is Argentinian AND Colombian. We were told the two owners/partners, one is Argentinian and the other Colombian. Is a nice food combo. We ordered the Beef, Chicken, Ham n Cheese, & Chorizo empanadas. Husband liked the Beef, was actually very good w the traditional filling (raisins Baby!) The chicken empanada was MY fave, it just hit the spot - very Argentinian filling - I wanna say is a must try! Chorizo, we thought it tasted like pizza w sausage Ham n Cheese was OK - in my defense I was never a fan of this one as a kid. Their dough is excellent! Super delicious and perfectly baked! Yes, their empanadas are all baked. They also sell unbaked empanadas to take home, easy to do. Bathroom was clean, a lil off putting having to go thru part of the kitchen but at least the whole place looked very clean, huge points in my book for that. For any Argentinians out there or peeps in the know... they also had Mate cups w Mafalda! And yerba mate to go. We will DEFINITELY be coming back! read more

We discovered this place today and we're glad we did. My husband got the chorizo pizzeta and a beef empanada. I got the mushroom empanada and the fugazzeta empanada. Both were soooooo good. I had the good sense of getting a couple of apple empanadas for dessert. They had a crispy coating of caramelized sugar and sugar crystals. The Granny Smith apple filling tasted fresh without being too sweet. We'd love to come back and try more flavors. Highly recommend. read more

When visiting the Martinez Farmers Market we head directly to their booth! It's the first thing we do before any shopping. I highly recommend the Mushroom and Breakfast as a starter. All their empanadas are delicious so there's no going wrong. They have specials during the week so this week it was the Caprese, fantastic. The staff is always friendly and it's so great, the line is around the corner if you get there later in the day...also, they sell out so get there early. read more

Cocina Milonga - The best - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Napa, California

Visiting Napa and was craving something savory. Found Cocina Milonga with great reviews. They were closed that day due to staffing issues. We went back the next day and glad we did. Cute storefront with what appears to be seating outside in good weather (nothing setup outside when we arrived early am) One table and some counter seating inside. Nice cozy restaurant for a snack. Huge selection of savory and sweet empanadas. We ordered a dozen mixed savory empanadas. They also serve coffee drinks. Empanadas come in their own little paper envelopes which are individually labeled with the type so we can easily figure out which one we wanted to try. Nice touch! Favorites were Chorizo, Spinach, Mushroom and Fugazetta. $5.50 each which is not bad considering there is another Empanada vendor in the area that charges $7. read more

I grab empanadas any chance I get going through the farmers market. My favorite are the mushroom and the fuguzetta, (I'm sure I spelled that wrong), but I wish I would have grabbed the spicy chorizo one this weekend. The pastry itself is always perfectly crisp and the filling full of flavor on any one that I've ever ordered. Service is always patient, helpful and friendly, as well as quick and efficient! read more

I had a late lunch (around 3 pm). Someone was there ready to help me. The decor is festive and modern. The branding is on point. I ordered the beef and chicken empanadas. At $5.50 each, it's cheaper than the ones found in Oxbow Market (although I haven't compared the sizes). They were good and they satisfied my late afternoon cravings. I also had a cold brew to go with the food and it made every other bite go down well. Empanadas and coffee -- what a great combo! read more

Their fugazetta and mushroom empanadas are must gets. I've been getting their empanadas from the farmers market for months and finally got around to going to their physical location. Their restaurant is tucked away on a quiet little street where you can enjoy delicious empanadas and cafe con leche. read more

First time wine tasting with friends and we were in a rush before our 2nd of 3 locations. We first visited a restaurant but there was a lengthy wait so we decided to drive in the direction of our 2nd wine tasting area to look for something quick to eat. Great decision! Walking in, it was small but very welcoming. Very vibrant colors for the decor. I ordered the Chorizo empanada. MAN it was good. I wish I had ordered a few more to go. It was filling, very good and affordable! I don't visit Napa often but I will definitely be back here when I'm in the area. read more

Cocina Milonga - chorizo empanada - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Napa, California

We caught up with Milonga's fabulous empanadas at the Napa Farmer's Market where they had a nice large display. Beef, chicken, pork, sweet potato, spinach and yes, vegan options (roasted veggies, potato and apple) all available this morning. I opted for the "Breakfast" empanada which included eggs, cheddar cheese and bacon. Absolutely delicious and a great first bite. Not bad at all for $5.

This place is super cute with really friendly people. I had a ham and cheese empanada and a chorizo and egg empanada. They were both good but the chorizo was the winner. They were not greasy at all and came with a delicious tangy dip that had a slight spice. What a great combo. read more

This was my first time trying this joint and it didn't disappoint. The food was amazing and the service was amazing as well. As you can see from the pictures the Ambiance was chill with amazing smells the moment you walk in. We tried the Ham&Cheese, the Argentinian Chorizo, the mushroom and the Apple empanadas. All the ones we tried were filled with amazing flavors. The chimichurri was, as the owner says, magical sauce. It was all a perfect balance of amazing food, great service and a chill spot to come visit. If you're in the Napa area you must come to this spot, you will not be disappointed. read more

I highly recommend this place for its empanadas. They're absolutely amazing. I don't think you can go wrong with any selection. Limited seating, but other than that, fantastic. They also offer frozen empanadas to go with instructions. Again, highly recommended. read more

Our first time coming here. We were in between appointments and wanted something fast, budget friendly and somewhere we haven't tried in Napa. We ordered 2 chicken, 1 mushroom and an apple empanada. They were absolutely delicious. Can't wait to try the other flavors. read more

Fresh hot empanadas. Great finger foods to have in between wine tasting as it can be eaten at room temperature.

Empanadas where so delicious Beef,chorizo,sweet potato, Mexican chorizo.Had to come back for sweets too!!Service was great thank u!!!

I usually pick up their frozen empanadas to go, close to my work, definitely recommend this little local gem!!! Super friendly service, delicious empanadas and quite the variety- I recently brought them to a party and everyone raved about them! Kudos!!! See you again soon :-) read more

So many different types of empanadas! So far I have tried the ham & cheese, chicken, beef, and fugazzeta -- all delicious. Service is very friendly. The alfajores are good too. I definitely recommend this place! read more

We went to Cocina Milonga on the recommendation of Rancho Gordo (a place close by that we bought beans from) The empanadas where fabulous! I tried the Potato and also the fugazzeta. They were off the hook and so many flavor and textures. The sauce on the side chimichurri (I think it was) was so good I could drink it up! I brought home the empanadas and put it in my air fryer and it smelled so good when it was cooking that I wanted to wear it a perfume. When I pulled it out it was hot and crispy! I really regret not buying more. I bought some beef empanadas from their freezer section so that I could have them later on. I really wish I would have bought one of each flavor when I was there. This place is a must try! Go try it you won't regret it! The service was also great everyone there was so friendly and welcoming. read more

I will go back to try other vegetarian and vegan options (they have many options-yay) ! I also got Alfajor Cordobes... the dulce de leche was my favorite! Please support this small business!!! read more

I love this place. My boyfriend and I have chatted with the owner in the few times we've been there and he's just so kind and welcoming. The empanadas (including the sweet ones) are SO GOOD and that chimichurri sauce is chef's kiss. I haven't had the coffee yet because the machine was down when I ordered it but I'm looking forward to it for next time. Today and I got 1 of each (except the tuna and apple cause I've had them) and each one does the opposite of disappoint read more

Very good empanadas. I had a chicken, chorizo, and mushroom. All good and either baked or heated fresh as there was a 5-10 minute wait, not sitting under a heat lamp. They seem pretty serious about their coffee though I did not imbibe. read more

Super delicious and complex fillings in the empanadas. We tried Chicken, Beef, Mushroom and Mixed Veg. All fantastic and unique. I'll be back for coffee and desserts. It is WAY off the beaten path, but I will be recommending it to everyone. Lovely owner, super clean and nice front garden with little tables as well. read more

I have never in my life had a more joyful cashier. My family got up at 3am for sunrise adventures and we were on the brink of being hangry & needing a nap, but the Milonga man brought a smile to all of our faces helping with recommendations and lightening our heavy moods with optimism. He was a one man show, cooking, making coffee, and bringing out food/drinks. Great food and ever better service. read more

THE BEST EMPANADAS YOU WILL EVER HAVE!! I love the people who work here and I'm addicted to their empanadas. I would look forward to seeing them at the farmers market before they even opened the restaurant. GO there!! read more

Very friendly and helpful staff. The empanadas are very delicious and they have many vegetarian options too.

The empanadas are incredible, and the service is always wonderful. I stop here a lot before school, and it's really a nice place to just sit down and have some coffee and an empanada. read more

Wonder Empanadas! Best I have ever had. Best part is the chef! He is great! We had good food and good conversatio!

Took my fiancée here for a date because he love's empanadas. I called the food in and it was ready when we got there in less than 10 minutes. The cashier was extremely friendly, they have plenty of vegan/ vegetarian options, and everything tasted great. I feel like the cost was a little low for the quality they put into it. We got 7 empanadas and a dessert for $42, I think that's extremely reasonable for Napa! We will definitely be back!!! read more

empanadas were awesome!! stopped by yesterday and got a few to take home: beef, humita , and spinach .THANK YOU, i wish i lived closer :)

The owner was great to talk with, the Cafe was set up for success but.....the empanadas are baked, hence dry. My advice would be to offer some fried choices on the menu. read more
