I love all kinds of weekends so had to try the Empanada Factory and ordered a mix to sample of six different empanadas plus the yuca cheese bread. Their empanadas are more Spanish style. You can get them baked, fried, or raw to take home. We got them all baked. We got the bacon cheeseburger, Hawaiian adobo, chicken BBQ, chicken Alfredo, chicken curry, and truffle mushroom. The truffle mushroom was easily my favorite. It had really good flavor without being too heavy. The rest were solid too, and it was fun trying a variety. We also got the chimichurri and cilantro aioli, and both sauces were really good and added a lot to each bite. The yuca cheese bread was a great side! It was warm, soft, and worth getting. The decor was cute and made it feel like a nice spot to sit and try a few things. The staff was friendly, although they only had one person at the front. Overall, good experience and a place I'd come back to try more flavors.

Beef - would do cheeseburger next time

Soooooo good!! I had their empanadas at the Summerlin farmers market this weekend and loved it so much I had to try their store front. It's such a cute place with an inviting vibe. Ive been to many empanada spots here in vegas and hands down this is the best spot. Their empanadas are stuffed with meat and all super flavorful. They have a lot of other options on their menu that look real yummy...I'll definitely be back to try a few of their appetizers with a steak sandwich. On top of their ridiculously amazing food options - they offer drinks like margarita, beers, coffees with specialty coffee options, some pastry's and they sell their sauce in small mason jars for $5 each. I for sure took some home.

Wow, these are hands down the best empanadas I've ever had, and the Spanish hot chocolate is incredible! The cashier was so friendly and offered great recommendations. I tried three empanadas beef, breakfast, and chicken curry and every single one was absolutely delicious. The cilantro aioli and chimichurri sauces paired perfectly with them. Please consider selling the Spanish hot chocolate year round. It brought back such nostalgic memories of drinking Abuelita Mexican hot chocolate as a child. The interior is beautifully decorated, with a Tulum meets Miami Little Havana vibe, and the music really ties it all together.

Where have I been??? This place is great for a quick lunch, snack on the go, or if you just wanna have some tummy comfort hugs in the fridge for that between the meal cravings. They have savory and sweet options, 3 sauces to choose from (cilantro aioli, pesto, or habanero). Frankly, the pesto was too oily for my taste, I make mine more about the herbs and nuts but overall delicious meal! The cassava cheese balls ARE OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! You can order everything rare and bake at home, get them baked, or fried! Friendly service and clean dining/restrooms. I'm super impressed and will definitely be back! PS: If you sign up for rewards, you get $5 off next purchase!!!

I love seeing a food truck grow into a brick-and-mortar, and Empanada Factory is a perfect example of a small business doing it right. I've had their food truck multiple times and always loved how easy and delicious it was, so I was excited to finally visit the restaurant, try a latte, and hang out. The setup is so cute--lots of greenery mixed with wood, wicker, and black accents. It looks really sleek, clean, and inviting. I ended up getting a six-pack of empanadas to take home--Ranchera, ham and cheese, curry chicken, and beef. We also grabbed the chimichurri and cilantro aïoli, and next time we'll definitely get extra because they were that good. I can't wait to go back, try more drinks, and check out their dessert empanadas too.

I wasn't sure what to expect when I saw the location from the outside. When I opened the door I saw this beautiful place filled with many empanada options and so much moreeee!!! The gentleman taking our order was friendly and helpful with the questions we had on the sauces. The empanadas I chose were Beef and Pizza. The beef empanada was exploding with so much flavor and well packed. I paired the empanada with a Mango Havanero and the Cilantro Aioli. The sauces are so great, you have to try them too. The pizza flavored one was also amazing. The hotdog fries were super amazing. The hotdog used is an all beef sausage. Cut nicely to get that crispiness. The combination is drizzled with a specialty sauce. I added the Habanero and Cilantro sauce and made this dish much more delicious. I also got a sweet treat because you can't pass on a Alfajore if you love shortbread cookies and caramel, you will love these, so make sure to grab some!!!

Nice sweet space. Tons of photo ops. Really comfortable feeling and nice empanada. Truffle mushroom is my favorite.

Hot, fresh, and tasty empanadas. There's a wide selection of different filling choices with wide ranging flavor profiles, so there is something for everyone. The empanadas are baked to order, so definitely order ahead if you're short on time. You can also get them unbaked to make later at home. I tried 5 different flavors, and they were all good in their own way. They all tasted fresh and good quality with a nice flaky crust that isn't too thick. They are a touch small for the price, but I suppose the overall experience makes up for it. I'd recommended getting the chimmichurri sauce too. It paired pretty well with all 5 of my flavors. My order ranked: 1) Beef ** 5/5 ** Has ground beef, potato, and eggs. Has a good flavor and seasoning and tastes a little more traditional. 2) Chicken Curry (Thai) ** 5/5 ** Good curry flavor, definitely Thai flavor inspired, not too spicy or pungent. 3) Ranchera ** 5/5 ** Can't go wrong with beef and chorizo. 4) Hawaiian Adobo ** 3/5 ** The pork was moist and had a flavorful red adobo slightly smoky marinade, and the pineapple was subtle but made it sweet. Pretty good overall, and I'm not usually a fan of sweet and savory foods 5) Chicken Alfredo ** 2.5/5 ** Tasted like chicken Alfredo, but as just a little underwhelming and needed more depth in flavor. I prefer a chicken bake from Costco I also tried a caramel flan latte. It was decent. The espresso is pulled fresh. The syrups are house made. 4/5. The restaurant is clean, bright, and airy inside. Very modern, green plant themed. Service was friendly. Definitely give this place a try! It can be a little hard to find as it's a smaller building hidden behind Shuck's Tavern.

We ordered half dozen and fries with sausage and it was delicious and very well recommended. Will come again for sure

Great food and ambiance. Really recommend this hidden gem. If you get a chance order the sausage and fries and try the half a dozen empanada set

I have enjoyed the empanadas from Empanada Factory since finding their food truck at a farmers market in my neighborhood. I was so happy to see that they opened a brick and mortar spot with an expanded menu and drinks including cocktails. I stopped in one afternoon. The cashier welcomed us in and went over the menu. We ordered 6 empanadas, a steak sandwich, berry lemonade, and a sangria. Our food came out fresh to the table. The seasonal shrimp empanada was so good, I hope they make it a permanent empanada. All of the empanadas were really tasty and each had its own unique flavor. The dipping sauces we ordered went well when paired with the empanadas. The steak sandwich was really good. It was served with fries. I can't wait to stop in and try more off of their restaurant menu. The drinks were really refreshing and I can't wait to try all of them over the next few visits.

Their system will automatically add a gratuity if you don't choose first. I don't like this non sense.

The more I come to Empanada Factory I realize it's a hit or miss. Last time I ordered some empanadas to go and the dough wasn't cooked all the way. And I wasn't the only one that could tell. My mom also agreed that they weren't cooked all the way. Another thing that kinda bothers me is if you don't intentionally make a selection on the tip on the screen it'll automatically do it for you. Today I ended up giving over a $5 tip on a $27 order to take out. When placing an order just make sure you read it well before you sign. I'm not happy about how shiesty these machines work. Overall Empanada Factory is alright and I obviously enjoy the food when it's done right so that why I keep coming here but there's definitely room for improvement.

One word..WOW! The food, the atmosphere and the customer service were amazing!!! Empanada Factory is such a great little local spot! Overall vibe inside was very pleasant offering nice seating as well. It is a counter service ordering and the food gets brought to your table. We have absolutely loved the music and the atmosphere. Very relaxing and simply beautiful. Beautifully decorated and very vibrant and clean restaurant. It is family owned and operated restaurant and we have met one of the owners, she was very friendly and kind person. The service was also top notch. The staff were really nice explaining the menu. The food was fresh made to order. The empanadas were the real stars, though. So yummy !!! We have sampled a few different ones and each one was packed with flavor, and the crust was perfectly crispy . The empanadas are so good and filled in pretty good. My personal fave was the truffle mushroom - A MUST TRY!!! The sauces really kicked things up a notch; we especially loved the creamy cilantro aioli. We have also tried the Chicken Milanese sandwich, Yucca cheese bites - A MUST TRY and a Hot Dog Fries- so unique and so good! We ended our lunch with desert. We got Alfajor- so soft and buttery- it melts in your mouth, a Dulce de Leche cold coffee , Nuttela latte, and mojito cocktail was so delicious . They offer great selection of cocktails, wines, specialty lattes, etc. Overall: we have had a great time at Empanada Factory and we can't wait for the second location to open at Town Square- so excited! Definitely looking forward to it !!! We highly recommend this phenomenal empanada spot !!!

Freshly made empanadas! We ordered the 12 Empanada option: Beef, BBQ Chicken, Bacon Cheeseburger, Hawaiian Adobo, Truffle Mushroom, Cheese, and Chicken Curry. These were all delicious, but our fav was the beef! Latin music played the in the background, while the interior has a cool ambiance. Friendly service with a smile. They offered military discount too. They also offer fresh coffees, wines, and bottled beers. I highly recommend!!

Ask the Community - Empanada Factory

Do the empanadas come with dipping sauce? I am thinking about ordering a dozen. Or is the sauce an extra cost?

The sauce is extra, but worth it! They are great without any sauce. Not all empanadas are even compatible with a sauce. Ask the person who works there!

Are there servers or is it take your own?

They do have servers but you order in the counter and then the server will take the food to your table. You choose your own table. It's like Stonefire but tiny. Great food and great rock en español music.

Just what IS hawai'ian adobo?

It's chicken with a mix of pineapple and seems like a touch of spam. Either way, I dipped in the mango sauce and it was perfection and so good!

So I was happy to find this place. , Dined in around 2p, so restaurant had a couple of other diners, and server set us immediately and was able to answer a few question before we ordered. Decided to get the bowls which included, rice, protein and a side.. of course we got the Puerto Rican rice, roast pork and fried pork, and plantains. I wanted tostones, but unfortunately it was not available and then I found out the sad news after I asked if they didn't have plantains. I was told that the owner planned to close up shop on Sunday Sept 21. How sad! Decided to then order rellenos papa's and some.mofongo, as I would not get another chance unless I go daily the next 4 days. Everything was good as I remembered. I'm hoping the owner will be able to find another space. It's a cute little dining area. Lots of takeout orders and more diners came in for later lunch, I wonder if they know the place eas closing.

I always pop into this restaurant to eat when I'm in town, and I always seem to order the same thing... I ordered the pernil, which is roasted pork, arroz con gandules, potato salad, and trifongo. The roasted pork was so tender and delicious. I got some of the dark meat pieces, which are my favorite. The trifongo definitely wins the taste test. Trifongo is a Puerto. Rican dish made with green and sweet plantains and mashed together with pieces of fried pork and Chicharrón. My food was so delicious and yummy. I had to leave some of it on my plate, so I wouldn't go into a food coma. As always, the service there is on point and friendly. The host and server does not miss an opportunity to make sure to check up on you and provide water, or whatever beverage you're drinking. They're very sweet and run a pretty efficient shop. The cooks really I did themselves this time! The restaurant is always cleaned... The wait staff is always on top of cleaning the tables, and making sure everything is orderly. The bathroom is also clean. The restaurant has an open kitchen concept, so you can see the cooks in the back, preparing the dishes, including mashing up the plantains to make the trifongo. If you are in town, you must try this place. I recommend the roasted pork and the fried chicken. Of course, if you're looking for something on the smaller side, you can try the trifongo. Be patient though, if they are particularly busy, you may have to wait, and they may be out of some things. Over the years, I've learned to ask what they ran out of. Enjoy!
