If you're visiting for the first time, these are a must-try! read more

12/18/2025 First time here. Finally trying out since I was in the area. Take-out place only, so no places to sit and eat. There are a few chairs for people to sit on while they wait for their order, but no tables, no bathrooms. My wait time was 15-20 minutes. You can call in advance and pick-up as well to save time. Options: You can request for fried or baked empanadas. Sizes are quite small. Smaller than your hand. Made to order, so empanadas are served piping hot. CRIOLLA It's been awhile since I've last had empanadas, so decided to start with this. Very good starting point. The criolla was jam packed with ground beef, onions, eggs, olives and raisins. Loved the olives and raisins in it brought a briny and sweet flavor. It was very satisfying to eat, especially with the chimichurri. For reference, the spicy beef was similar in flavor profile minus the spicy kick. SPICY BEEF A must-try. This was super good! I would have ordered more if I knew what to order. This was my favorite! It tasted like a taco filling with all the taco seasonings. There was ground beef, onions, eggs, olives and jalapeños in it for the spicy kick. It wasn't too spicy either. SPICY CARNITAS Very porky flavors. Porky-licious! Definitely has that spicy kick from the jalapeños. The meat was slightly dry. It was okay, but I wouldn't order this again. CORN & CHEESE Could not see much other vegetables in it other than corn. Don't know what cheese was used, but it did taste a bit like Velveeta cheese. There was not stuffed and there was not a lot of cheese and not a lot of corn. It was very bland. I could still taste the empanada dough. It almost tasted undercooked. The empanada dough itself is bland. This was terrible and not good at all! APPLE I ordered it for fried, but it came out baked. Overall it wasn't bad, it tasted like apple pie. Yet the dough itself is thicker, so it takes away from the filling. The filling could use some more cinnamon and more apple juice filling to bring a more robust apple filling flavor. The flavor overall was good, but slightly lacking. CHIMICHURRI SAUCE Herbacious and tangy. You gotta scoop up the herbs and eat it on top of the empanada. You do need to purchase for 50 cents extra. But I think it's worth getting. CASH OR CREDIT CARD ACCEPTED! SURCHARGE ADDED TO CREDIT CARD USERS. CUSTOMER SERVICE Good customer service. The person taking my order was patient and friendly. The one complaint is that the person taking orders do go back and forth to the kitchen to check up on customer orders. PARKING Large parking lot shared with other businesses. But large enough to find available parking spots anywhere. read more

Empanadas To Go - Delicious desserts !!! - Argentine Near Me - Chino, California

Stopped by Empanada To Go while in the area definitely worth a visit! They offer both baked and fried options with a great variety to choose from. Each bite is packed with flavor, and don't skip the chimichurri sauce (it's extra, but worth it!). Portions are on the lighter side, so be ready to order more than one if you're hungry. Solid spot for a quick, tasty bite. Tell then team Smiley sent you. read more

"Empanadas to Go" offers a tasty Argentinian treat and we've tried almost all their offerings. On our most recent trip, we ordered dozen plus two, along with some extra Chimichurri sauce. All were made fresh as we waited (ten-fifteen minutes). The waiting area is kind of small and the staff was mostly in the back working. But the wait is worth it. See the photos. Look at those toasted beauties. read more

My family grew up eating Empanadas To Go, and I'm so happy to say the restaurant is still doing well! The empanadas were so delicious and filling, as always :) We had the beef, spinach&cheese, corn&cheese, spicy beef, and saltena- all baked. The dough/breading was soft yet still had a nice crisp layer. The inside was completely stuffed with ingredients (no air pockets)! The chimichurri sauce was perfect! Service was excellent! The cashier and the cook were both friendly and happy to help us. And our empanadas were ready within 5-10 minutes It's so good to be back :) read more

3% charge on all card transactions. Wow, can't believe I never tried this place until now. Grab and go spot, no seating. We got all of our empanadas fried and they weren't greasy to the touch at all. Texture of empanada shells are perfect; chewy but soft and not too dense while the outside was crispy. Chimichurri is really good but mostly oil. About 3/4 of the 2oz is oil and only the bottom settled portion is the other stuff. I prefer scooping my chimichurri with a fork to avoid most of the oil, I usually grab 2 for myself for every 3-4 empanadas. Saltena -so flavorful. Loved that the chopped steak added a different texture. Spicy Beef -olives added just the right amount of saltiness. Eggs are hard boiled and added some texture back into the ground beef. Spicy Chicken - less salty than the spicy beef but just as good. Carnitas -soft and tender. read more

Off the bookmarks. Out and about one day I looked up and the store was right in front of me . Located in a strip mall . It is a grab and go type of place . They have a few seats available for waiting outside . I spoke with another customer who had ordered a box full of empanadas. When I asked what they recommended they said it was their first time also and they bought based on word of mouth. Yes, word gets around about this place . I ordered 3 empanadas . 1 fried (dulce de leche )and 3 baked( spicy chicken and dulce de leche).The wait was not long at all. They were packaged in to go containers and tied up in a bag. I only tried the baked ones. The spicy chicken was good . The empanadas will come hot. There is no dining area so you might be like me and eat it in the car in their lot. No regrets. The empanadas come in at around $3 each. I also tried the chimichurri sauce and it paired nicely with my empanada. The dulce de leche empanada was as sweet as you'd expect it to be with a caramel undertone.The empanadas are small so keep that in mind when ordering . read more

Love this place. Great service. Chicken and beef empanadas that are baked are delicious. I love both fried or baked but these are better baked actually. Get the chimichurri sauce. Perfect pairing. Last minute orders they can do so fast! Great for parties. I highly recommend this place. read more

Been seeing ads online, my sis-in-law and I were in the area, so we stopped to see what the hype was all about. As per the lady owner(?)/cashier's suggestion, we ordered: 2 spinach & cheese, 1 steak & cheese, and 1 chicken. All of them were bland and crusts were so thick around the edges and bland as well. Not worth nearly $4 each. 1st and last time. read more

This was such a great experience! I took my family there and we tried nine different types of empanadas. Savory we tried chicken, steak, carnitas, cheese and corn, and ham and cheese. Sweet we tried peach, dulce de leche, pumpkin, and pineapple. Every single one was delicious! Highly recommend. Will return. read more

THESE PEOPLE CARE ABOUT QUALITY AND CONSISTENCY! This will have to be me and my husband's new favorite go-to.

I order for my family from this spot at least once a month. I've always done fried empanadas but after trying the baked, that's all we get now. I suggest calling in ahead because it does take awhile if you order in person. read more

We can't say enough wonderful things about Empanadas To Go! They went above and beyond to prepare our order on a day they were actually closed over a holiday weekend, no less. That level of dedication and customer care is rare and truly appreciated. Not only was the service outstanding, but the food was phenomenal fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with love. We ordered Chicken, Beef, and Vegetarian Empanadas, and they were an absolute hit. You can taste the quality in every bite. And the pastries Arrollado, Pepitas, Canoncitos, and Palmertias were just as amazing. Thank you, Empanadas To Go, for exceeding expectations. You've definitely earned customers for life! read more

1000/10 the best empanadas great customer service as well! Great people making great food

Hace años que como Empanadas To Go pero me di cuenta que nunca les había dejado una review. Las empanadas están buenísimas. He probado empanadas de muchos lugares pero la verdad que la de espinaca y carne (criolla) son mis preferidas y las más ricas y auténticas que he probado acá. También me gusta la empanada versión americana que tienen que se llama "bbq pork". Me encanta el sabor que tiene y lo jugosa que es. Les doy un tip secreto, hay una empanada que tienen que se llama "criolla" que es la empanada más argentina que tienen. La empanada criolla consiste en aceitunas, pasas de uva y huevo. Tal cual como una clásica empanada argentina. Recomiendo 100% este lugar si te gusta la comida argentina en general y especialmente las empanadas. read more

A Must-Try Spot for Fresh, Flavorful Empanadas! I had heard great things about this place, so I finally decided to give it a try--and I'm so glad I did! I ordered the Steak & Cheese Empanada and the Salteña, and since everything is made to order, it took about 10 minutes to prepare. But trust me, it was well worth the wait. From the very first bite, I was blown away. The crispy, golden-brown crust gave way to a burst of rich, savory flavors and perfectly juicy fillings. The steak & cheese was incredibly satisfying, and the Salteña was packed with bold, delicious flavors. Hands down, one of the best empanadas I've had in a long time! The inside was spotlessly clean, and the man who served me was incredibly friendly and welcoming. If you go, I highly recommend getting a side of chimichurri sauce--it pairs perfectly with the empanadas! I'll definitely be coming back to try more menu items. If I could give this place 10 stars, I would! Don't hesitate--go give it a try! read more

Small place, perfect name -To go- they could perhaps have small tables outside, got several to taste, spicy chicken was the best one, tuna was second best for me - it didn't even taste like tuna so that was Good, I didn't like the ground beef ones because it has strong seasonings. They're good but they definitely need to be eaten there on the spot, not on the go so that they're nice and crispy when they go in your mouth' read more

Amazing service from Kyle D very kind and respectful person took care of us very well good sense of humor

Very delicious!! Loved the fried empanadas!! Service was good!! The place is great! overall empanadas are delicious

Tasty empanadas at an affordable price. Note, as of May 2023: the veggie empanadas cost the same price as the meat options, although they're listed as cheaper online. Still a good price, though. Lots of flavor options. The standard chicken and the cheese and onion are my favorite two empanadas. You must get the chimichurri sauce. It's delish and elevates the taste. Also great are the Canoncitos (pastry filled with dulce de leche and sprinkled with powdered sugar) that are in the refrigerator. Not made there, you just grab them and add to your order. SO good! This isn't a dine-in restaurant. It's a small space that takes to-go orders only. read more

Really good service, really great empanadas! I've been eating here off and on for over five years. Their empanadas are delicious and fairly priced! We just picked up 3 dozen for a friend's birthday party. They were a massive hit! Highly recommended if you want to add a unique taste to your party or perfect for an on-the-go snack. They have both savory and sweet option. Get your yum on! read more

My husband and I went in and tried a variety of different flavors. TBH they are all pretty delicious, nice, crispy, crunch, flaky outside. My only complaint is that the size of the empanadas are pretty small for the price but as far as flavor goes, they're delicious. I hope the eventually expand to dine in so you can eat them freshly made at a table but definitely worth a try if you like empanadas! read more

They don't even speak Spanish so if you're looking for the true Argentinian flavor, this is not your place. Secondly, they are located in Suite D and not Y like you have it in the address read more

I stop by to purchase a dozen Empanadas. The service is still great but, the product was not. I've been coming to this restaurant since 2010 and I always love their food until now. The empanadas are not near how they used to be, now they are much smaller, twice as expensive and not as flavorful as before. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be back! read more

Oh my wow! We were in the area and looking for a snack to hold us over before we met up for a meal. My husband suggested this place and in glad he did! We got 5 empanadas fried, and all were delicious. I like that they're made fresh and you can choose fried or baked. We called the order in and it took about 10 minutes to complete. Here's what we got: Chicken - Nice and flavorful Spicy Chicken - The same as the chicken but with a small kick. To me it wasn't spicy. Veggie - This had great flavor as well. There was cheese in it. But it wasn't a lot. Corn and cheese - Yummy with a little sweetness Spinach and Cheese - This had plenty of spinach that was seasoned well. There was also a little piece of egg on there which was a surprise. If I'm ever in this area again and need a bite I'll definitely be back to try more! read more

What are empanadas? Empanadas are either baked or fried basically, a turnover consisting of pastry and filling (sweet or savory) Originally from Spain, Southern European, Latin American and even Iberian-influenced cultures. Variations include Italian calzones or panzerotti, British pasties, American hot pockets, Russian chebureki and Crimeanian fleischkuekle. Argentina considers empanadas to be their national dish and have progressed throughout history to become one of the most popular and eminent Latin American food staples and still enjoyed till this day. Empanadas to go offer authentic home-style empanadas, subs, pizzas and desserts. I tried two of their empanadas since I had just come from lunch. The popular criolla which consists of ground beef, olives, raisins, eggs and onions. The Saltena; finely chopped steak, potatoes, red pepper and onion. Lastly, the seasonal peach empanada. Both the savory empanadas were absolutely delicious seasoned to perfection and was served very hot! The seasonal peach empanada was tasty but because I was so full, I took a couple bites and decided to save it for after dinner. The only recommendation I have for patrons is to eat the empanadas hot and fresh because they do not hold very well. read more

the best authentic! milanesa sandwich is too kill for! great people great atmosphere love argentina

I've been craving some empanadas and came here one day to try their sandwiches as well. Their choripan sandwich ($7.99) and prosciutto and cheese sandwich ($7.99) are great. Their empanadas are $2.69 each and chose to get the saltena, spicy beef, criolla, beef, and corobesa which are part of their savory empanadas. The empanadas have ground beef, hard boiled eggs, onions, olives, and raisins. The only difference between the criolla and cordobesa is that the cordobesa has sugar in it and is a bit too sweet for me. The criolla is my favorite of the flavors. They can be either fried or baked and they're filled thoroughly. The dough was flaky and the chimichurri sauce is good too for all the different flavors. The choripan is grilled Argentinean sausage with chimichurri, lettuce, tomatoes, and mayonnaise on soft white bread. It was flavorful and not too heavy or oily with the chimichurri. The prosciutto and cheese sandwich was good, they gave a good amount of prosciutto slices with tomatoes, lettuce, and mayonnaise. It's a hassle to get out of the plaza. The lady was nice. read more
