    I heard this place was good, but we have so many restaurants in Las Vegas it's hard to get to all of them. I bought a Groupon to remind me to go check them out. Oh boy, this one did not disappoint! From the moment you walk in the ambiance, the decor & the music sets the tone. The staff is so friendly & welcoming. We didn't try any alcoholic beverages this time, I wanted to save room for the food. But the drinks looked lovely. They have sangria & also by the pitcher. We started with Dates wrapped in bacon, & Popcorn Calamari with honey Sriracha sauce! Then we shared the Garlic Steak Entree with loaded rice & the Classic Empanada we chose it fried & came with a Chile Lime Chimichurri. We finished with flan & churros. It was way too much food but EVERYTHING was so good, we wanted to try this & that. If you are looking for a great dinning experience with everything made in house, come on down for a great & tasty experience. Leave room for dessert! The flan was so light & delicate. The churros had 5 good size, fresh & warm with Carmel & chocolate sauce. We MUST go back! Their happy hour is now only from 7p- close. They also have a special on Tuesday buy 2 empanadas & get 1 free. They also have brunch on Sat & Sun. Only got the dessert pictures. But the presentation of all the courses is fun!

    Loaded Empanadas was a really nice surprise and an easy recommendation in Vegas. The standout was the Passion Chicken empanada--a great balance of sweet, savory, and tangy that totally works with the side sauces, and feels bold without being gimmicky. Definitely not what you expect, in the best way. The ambiance and decor add to the experience, paired with music that makes you curious rather than fading into the background. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, happy to walk you through the menu. Not a life-changing empanada, but a solid find for something quick, flavorful, and a little unexpected. I'd happily come back to try more.

    Dessert: churros (so good)

    Attend their Master Empanada cooking class and had a great time! Food, drinks and learning to make empanada all for $45, can't beat this deal. Class started at 6pm in the upstairs area of the restaurant. The owner and the head chef lead the class on how to make empanadas. They demonstrated how the dough is made, how to stuff the empanadas and then we got to take turns making empanadas to take home and cook. We also learned how to make their delicious bacon wrapped dates! While the cooking lesson is being taught you get an order of empanadas, dates wrapped in bacon, some drinks and desserts at the end of class. I had a great time and highly recommend this for a night out or a fun date night.

    We've dined here 3 times with friends and the service is incredible! The food is always wonderful. We've met the owner each time we've been there. She not only works hard but has impeccable customer service. We weren't going to get dessert the last time we visited and she brought us one of everything, on the house.

    Our empanada

    One word: WOW. The food here was amazing! The service was great and the ambiance was cute. What we ordered as a family of 4: magic mushroom, veggie bomb, tropical sea, shrimp al ajillo, shishito peppers, crème brûlée empanada, churros and an order of chicken bites with fries. They said everything was made in house - even the chicken bites and fries (never from frozen). We were so surprised on the taste. The food was fresh, delicious and even my kids loved it. They are the biggest food critics. Our server gave us recommendations and always checked on us. They even gave our kids a cool ball game to play after we ate our food while we were ready to leave and pay the tab. I highly recommend supporting this restaurant. You won't regret it. Prices are above average when you think of empanadas, but they are in Summerlin and you pay for the experience. We ate everything. No food left for leftovers. We will be back!!!

    Happy hour menu

    I love this place and its varied settings. It has outdoor seating that's beautiful and romantic. Indoor seating that's classic yet practical. And they have upstairs seating for events. That's exactly what I had at their upstairs dining area. I had a wonderful HR event with a speaker. The owners of this amazing venue gave us full access to it that included microphones, surround sound, and even a screen to play any videos. The food is delicious and varied and not just empanadas. They also have amazing drinks. This is a great place for intimate setting, business meeting, or just meeting friends for an enjoyable happy hour.

    We've been loyal diners at Via Brasil since almost the beginning and love the food, service, and hospitality so when Anna and Adam opened Loaded Empanadas, I knew we had to try it. Well they did it again! The food is very high quality. The service and hospitality are fantastic. Make sure that you have dessert too. We recommend Via Brasil to everyone we know that lives here or visits Vegas and now I'm adding Loaded Empanadas to the must go to places in Las Vegas!

    Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Ambiance: 9/10 The empanadas are absolutely divine! The spread alone is worth every penny. It's so soft and flavorful. The passion chicken was my fave. They are also freshly cooked, so they arrive HOTTT! Be patient before eating them. Service was fantastic. Everyone was very attentive, kind and personable. This place excels at presentation and design the interior design is very unique and fills very authentic to the cultures that they're representing and I am a sucker for a kitchen gimmick so I loved the flame sticks that came out with each order. I will return when I visit Vegas again!

    Passion fruit sangria
    Kelly P.

    Probably one of the best meals I've had in a long time. We walked by just to see what this place was and I was so impressed. Service was incredible and everyone was so friendly and helpful. Everything on the menu sounded incredible... we ended up trying the mushroom one and the tropical fruit one with shrimp. Both were outstanding with fresh, homemade dipping sauces!! Not to mention the adorable decor and setting with great music. Also... $5.50 sangrias on sundays?! It's like they were paying me to drink it. I can't wait to go back and try everything!!!

    The Philly

    I was planning on just having the Tapioca Cheesy Dice which would have been fine because they were Yummy with a capital Y!!! They are gluten free fried cheese cubes. I couldn't believe I was also able to order an empanada. The Philly has Beef Short Rib, Peppers, Shallots, Mushroom and Cheese. It's served with a Spicy Tomatillo Sauce. All empanadas can be made gluten free for an additional charge. The dough was amazing. It's hard to believe that it was gf. The filling was so delicious, creamy and cheesy with tender beef. The Garlic Steak has chimichurri marinated tri tip in a garlic sauce with caramelized onion. This one is another winner. One dessert that I really miss is Chocolate Mousse. It's a dessert that's outdated. It was very popular in past decades but you don't see it much anymore. Even when it is on the menu it isn't really mousse. It's too heavy. Not at Loaded Empanadas!! Their Chocolate Mousse is the real deal. Light and fluffy and topped with whipped cream. It was so good I would go back just for dessert. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. I am definitely putting this one in my regular rotation. I can't wait to get through the rest of the menu. Thank you for a fabulous meal.

    lychee mocktail
    Maya T.

    We absolutely loved our experience at Loaded Empanadas! We were walking by and were promptly greeted by our server who came out to say hi to us and invite us in. How could we say no? We were seated immediately and given the run down of the menu. The inside is really cool, with a photo booth downstairs and entire bar area upstairs. Our server was super nice and attentive the entire time. She also made all of our drinks! They were amazing. I got a lychee mocktail and it was really cool, it came with lychees garnished with edible glitter and it was also super refreshing. We got a whole bunch of empanadas to try, but my favorite was the Cubana. It was basically like a sandwich in empanada form, but it was delicious. I also really loved the Philly. Both had such great flavor and paired nicely with the sauces that were brought out. The presentation of everything was awesome. The empanadas came out on a platter with a giant sparkler on top. It was pretty entertaining. All in all service was 10/10 and so was the food, so I'm definitley looking forward to our next visit.

    The Romeo and Juliet, goat cheese, cream cheese, and guava sauce
    Michael L.

    Great customer service, staff are friendly and very patient. My girlfriend has food allergies and asked a lot of questions about the food. The food tasted great. Loved the sauces as well. The ambiance here feel makes you feel like you're family here. Will definitely come back.

    While out running errands we decided to find a spot to cross off our list and Loaded empanadas was at the top. We had never been to the Boca Park area and we were pleasantly surprised at how nice it was. The parking lot was pretty full and we had to drive around a bit to find parking, even with it being mid week. We walked in and to our surprise it was empty, Ana greeted us right away and was very nice. We sat down and she was on it and attentive. She explained all the happy hour options along with answering any of our questions. We started with the potatoes bravas which were tasty, could have been tad more crispy but still good. We also ordered some empanadas, the passion chicken and the magic mojo. Both were very good, nice flavor and the sauces were excellent. The mango salsa was really good. Overall we enjoyed our meal and we were happy we gave it a try. It's a journey from Henderson but if we are in the area we will definitely make a stop.

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.

    If I lived in Vegas, I would go here every day for dinner! This place is hands down the best…read more Puerto Rican food I've had. Even my Puerto Rican. Bestie says so. 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!
