Went for the first time with a group of 7 and got a table on the back patio. There's plenty of seating on the inside, the front, back and bar patio!

We felt welcomed even though we were a larger group. Even with it being a walk up to order spot, they still came to check on us constantly and helped clear our items and bring stuff out in a timely manner. Can't wait to come back and try more!

There's truly something for everyone...and honestly, I've never had anything here that wasn't good. That said, I always come back to my staples: Las Adelitas, The Oinker, and Italian Marcelo. Each one is packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and made with love. Whether you're a first-timer or a longtime Houstonian, Marini's never disappoints. A must-visit...and revisit.

The place was tucked off in plaza I had to get up in there and was so pleasantly surprised. So cozy and cute. They have a great selection of empanadas and all the ones I had were sooooooo good. The spinach was a little juicier than I anticipated but everything was made so fresh. The Tia Maria and eggplant were my favorites and the sauces were a great addition in flavor. The dessert empanada sweet potatoes was top tier. The filling was just sweet enough, definitely want to taste the others, especially since they make their own fruit fillings. I can see how they've been around for so long. New customer alert !

I've been here twice and will keep coming back!…read more They are located in a plaza with free parking which is always a plus. Service has been great both times. They have so many empanada options so it is hard to choose but I went with the Texas Brisket, Four Cheese and Guava & Cheese. I liked them all! The restaurant itself is small but they have a good amount of seating and it is nicely decorated. Highly recommend!

First time popping by - was torn between this one and the "original" empanada place…read more Little Patagonia is a cute little place, seating for a few dozen. Menu is limited. I believe the owners were on site (very nice). Food items are served on s cutting board. Chose the chicken, pork and spinach. I would not pick the spinach again - too much packed in the crust. Pastry is very light and crispy - all had a great taste. The chimichurri was very mild. Bonus - each has a fire brand indicating flavor.

Since it was their second day open, there were a few items that weren't available. We decided to go with the Salteña, Fish, Chorizo, Artichoke and Dessert Empanadas. Most were fried but a few were baked as well. The outside of the fried empanadas were crispy while the insides were stuffed to the brim with yummy goodness. I would suggest, that if you order the fried ones to eat as soon as possible, since they might get soggy if sat for too long. The baked empanadas were great as well - once again overflowing with stuffings! They definitely did not skimp. All in all, I'm so delighted this restaurant has joined the Cypress community. It'll definitely become a regular for our family!

They are warm and yummy. I have had mushroom, chorizo, vegetable, queso, mole, shredded beef. The mushroom is my fave. Packed with deliciousness. And the vegetable one was nice too. They are all really good. The fillings are seasoned perfectly. The empanada shell is soft in the middle and crunchy in the edges. They also have sauce so make sure to ask for that because it adds a nice punch to them. They also do breakfast ones and some other varieties. Def worth trying if you live empanadas like I do.

We didn't get to try a lot of items on their menu so my impression is limited to what we ordered. For appetizers, we had a variety of empanadas (spicy ground beef, chicken chipotle, italian, fugazetta). All are very tasty and probably one of the best items they have. The chimichurri that comes with them is a stand-out. We had the platter of mixed meats (parrillada che gaucho) that included 3 kinds of sausages, chicken breast, sweetbread, short rib, flank and skirt steaks. The sausages were good, the chicken was standard grilled chicken breast and the beef cuts were pretty tough (our knives had a really hard time cutting through them). Again, the chimichurri is the star and makes the meats much better. It came with 2 sides so we chose asparagus and fries tossed in garlic+parsley. For dessert, we had an apple maple empanada and a banana dulce de leche empanada with ice cream. Both are delicious but that banana one is a must-try. Fabulous.
