Last month, I ordered takeout from this spot that's been frequented from Sophia and myself. The…read moreboth of us were never disappointed with our meals. Pre-pandemic, this was a place where we would have dine-in visits with friends of ours from a social group or just the two of us. It was probably close to a year since we last appeared so it was time to stop by. Similiar to the past visits, I called in our orders. They greeted me promptly when I walked in where there was only one table occupied. Quick and easy. For our orders, which both served as dinner and lunch for work at our respective sites, we chose their Cubano sandwich with our usual sides (fries for myself and plantains for Sophia). As always, the sandwich was pretty good packed with ham and roasted pork, pickles, cheese and mustard (both had no mayo). I would've liked for more fries in the box, but I had enough for both servings. La Pena Horeb came through once again. You know I'll be ordering takeout from here down the road. Till next time :)

They are delicious and filling - my favorite is packed with beef, hard-boiled egg, olive, and onion, and this combination of flavors really has a lot of flavor. The bread tastes and feels very fresh and is nicely chewy and firm. The salsa that is served with the empanada is also really good, with a nice tangy taste. The owner of the cart has always been the same guy, and he's really great. He is always very kind and polite, and you can tell he cares a lot about his business and his customers. From studying at VCU, to now working downtown, it puts me in a good mood to see this business thriving.

I've been able to enjoy their empanadas at a variety of farmers/flea markets and was excited to see they had a brick & mortar as well! I have only tried the ready to eat options which were absolutely flavorful, crispy and delicious. They do have a small amount of seating here but it appears to mainly be a takeout spot. The staff is really nice and offered recommendations to me. Overall, this is a great spot to grab a snack or a quick lunch. Pro-tip, make sure to try their chimichurri sauce with your empanada selections it really elevates it!

Empanadas, sandwiches and other finger foods. Keeping it simple for customers. Last weekend, Sophia and I drove from the Peninsula to see if the hype was legit. Walking inside, we were greeted by one of the sisters who was featured on the segment. They had a few tables where you can sit or you can order takeout. It was very clean with decor on the walls and music from the 70s to the 90s was playing throughout. Very calm during our visit. Let me use my three favorite Yelp words to describe the food: pretty damn good. For apps, we order beef empanadas. Pretty nice size and cooked perfectly. The beef and veggies were well seasoned. Their chimichurri sauce that you can add definitely brought extra flavor. Nothing overpowering at all. For our meal (and takeout), we both chose their chicken milanesa sandwich, which is a popular Argentinian dish. They were pretty big and hearty. From the thinly sliced chicken to the amount of veggies, everything worked pretty well. This trip was truly worth it. Catching local diamonds in the rough like Tango Bites is one hobby I love. You know we'll be back here :)
