I happen to see the sign as I was driving by and of course I had to stop for empanada! It's in a business Center. It isn't very obvious where it is. They are either moving or expanding into Temecula. I just love a place that has pictures of Messi and the Argentinian flag everywhere! It must be authentic. Problem is the staff didn't know if the coffee is from there. She knew the cold brew was though. I tried it and it had a very weird after taste. My teen loved it though. My teen also loved the pepperoni empanada and the chicken empanada. I had the spinach empanada. It was crispy on the outside. I love that it was made fresh right there.
Found this little gem when looking for fun foodie places in the area- my son loves empanadas so it was a must try during our day out. We got the 6 pack, mix and match, and the spicy and regular chimichurri sauces. Our favorite was the chicken and spicy cheese, after that it was the ham and cheese and pepperoni- we didn't particularly care for the beef, but that is probably personal preference, and the chicken was a clear front runner for us. The flavors were great, everything was fresh and we enjoyed trying them. They also have frozen ones to take home and bake, which I thought was super cool. Service was good- she was patient and friendly, and everything came out quickly. The place itself is very small, with limited seating and one group of 4 took up both tables for some reason, but thankfully there were a few seats at the window left. We enjoyed it and would definitely go back.
Good food for good price. $15=2 Empenadas, soda can, chimichanga sauce, and chocolate-mint gelato dessert. Not too shabby Super clean shop. Two tables inside to eat w a long window table for singles. Table outside. Clean bathroom. Plenty of parking. Near courthouse, airport, and Winchester. The empenadas themselves were tasty.
The place is small but ideal for takeout, DoorDash, etc. For eating in they have a few small tables to eat at and the place is very clean. Before I start out with my review my family is from New Mexico and was brought up making Empanadas for the holidays. I had no idea that everyone makes their dough differently. I now that everyone fills them with their own family recipes but I assumed the dough would be the same. That being said I was really not a fan of them. I was brought up with a sweeter dough and more filling. But on the other hand my husband who was brought up in California absolutely loved them.
Great tasting empanadas, I had chicken, beef, bbq pork all were super flavorful. The chimichurri sauces were also very good, I had the med heat and spicy heat. The dough was also very good on the empanadas. The girl at the front with colored hair was super friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is clean and kept up, I highly recommend this spot and I can't wait to go back and try some of the sweet empanadas.
The service, food and overall Vibe are always on point. The food is absolutely delish! Always a 10 out of 10!
I was driving by and saw an "Empanada" sign. I thought that was weird being that this area is basically an Industrial Park. Stopped by to check it out and got the 3 empanadas for $13.25, 1 beef, 1 cheese & jalapeno, and 1 chicken (which I had asked if it was white or dark meat and the guy said it was white meat). Beef empanada: Nice and beefy w a hint of olive taste. Chicken empanada: This was just ok. I don't think this was white meat though bc it had that chicken thigh "taste" I don't care for, but if you don't care what part of chicken it is, you might appreciate this. Cheese & jalapeno: I liked this one the best out of the three that I got. The cheese blend was delicious with a tiny hint of heat (wish it was a lot hotter). Spicy chimichurri: Herby and tangy, helped elevate the empanadas. This wasn't spicy at all for me (I have a very high tolerance for heat). Guy at the counter was super nice. The inside was very clean. They even have Argentine pantry goods you can buy. The empanadas are good and I appreciate that there's another empanada spot around here.
I nearly drove by this place since it's located in a business center. This place has been on my bookmarks for a while but they're closed on Sundays and I usually try to go on that day. I did get 1 dozen of empanada ($51) for my family and I to try during our vacation. I chose 6 chicken and 6 beef, and with buying a dozen they give 2 free empanadas so I chose a pepperoni and a bbq pork each to try. It came with four containers of regular and spicy chimichurri salsa to eat them with. There was no wait and they packaged my order quickly. The pepperoni, bbq pork, and the chicken were my favorites. My family liked the beef more. All the empanadas were seasoned nicely and were filled completely. They have a few tables to sit, along with several Argentinian coffee and items to sell. The staff was nice and the place was clean.
Surprised to discover an Empanada Shop in Murrieta and decided to give it a try for the night's dinner. Hoping to indulge in some tasty empanadas, with a salad, and a glass of sangria. Upon arrival I immediately noticed the establishment was well devoted to Argentina with Messi jerseys and photos; flags; various Argentina dried goods; and a Futbol match on the television. The staff were extremely friendly and customer service oriented. Purchased the six pack option with one additional empanada for free; Selecting two Spinach, two Chicken, one Beef, one Mushroom, and a Pineapple as the freebie. Visually the empanadas were very appetizing, but feel tragically short on construction and taste due to the thin crust and the fillings that appeared to be processed meats. The evening fell short of my expectations due to the mediocre empanadas provided and the house prepared chimichurri sauce was sour and tasted like pickle juice. At approximately $5.00 per empanada I would expect far better quality, and not factory produced frozen food quality.
Excellent!! Victor, Franco, Santiago and the rest of the crew are great people and the food is top! Try the ham and cheese, beef, and chicken! Try them all!
The empanadas are delicious!! We had a beef and a chicken and both were flavorful. The people are also very friendly. Shout out to Victor for helping us out!

Had an amazing experience at Nora's Empanada Factory - honestly, I loved everything. The empanadas were fresh, crispy on the outside, and packed with flavorful fillings. You can really taste the quality and care in each bite. The variety is great too so there's something for everyone whether you're in the mood for savory or a little sweet :) Service was friendly and welcoming. It's a perfect spot for a quick bite that still feels special. Definitely a place I'll keep coming back to! Support your local businesses! read more

"You can't go wrong with Argentine empanadas! Growing up, my best friend was Argentinian, so I got to eat empanadas all the time--and I loved them. Ham and cheese, corn and cheese, beef, chicken... they made so many different kinds, and it was always a delight. Now as an adult, having them at Nora's Empanadas brought back so many great memories! I'm rarely in Temecula, but yesterday we were in town for a baseball tournament. We'd seen Nora's Empanadas on Instagram, so I made a quick side trip to grab some. I ordered the ham and cheese, pepperoni, and beef empanadas--they were all delicious! But the absolute winner was the guava and cheese empanada. It was overwhelmingly sweet, but it hit the spot perfectly!" So if you are in Temecula, Ca. And are looking for lunch spot look no further than Nora's empanadas! read more

First time visit to check this place out. I had seen this place mentioned on a travel tiktok video as a "Must Try" when in the area. We were on a weekend trip to the Temecula Wine Country and this was a perfect place to stop for snacks! Nora's is located right off Winchester Road, just north of Murrieta Hot Springs Road. The main item they sell is of course the empanada's, but they also have a variety of coffee (Hot and cold). Most of the empanada's are hot and ready. The display case in at the counter is small. So if you see something out, just ask. They have more in the back. And if they are out, it's only a few minutes wait for a fresh one. The empanada's are fantastic. But you have to eat them fresh. They are sold individually and in packs of 3, 6 or 12. When I was there, if you bought a 6 pack, you got one free. This is a great deal and you can mix and match to try all the different flavors. If you have a favorite, you can also buy packs of frozen empanada's that you can take and bake at home. Overall, this was a great stop and we enjoyed all of the different empanada's we tried. Nice crisp shell packed with tasty flavors. Highly recommend the beef and chicken, but the breakfast one was also amazing! read more

I grabbed some empanadas from here since we were on our way to the Lantern Festival last year. We got the beef, chicken, ham & cheese, spicy cheese, and guava ones. They were pretty big and I enjoyed it with their spicy chimichurri sauce. We also tried their yerba mate cold brew and a few alfajores as well. The drink was refreshing and alfajores weren't too sweet. I saw some pantry items for sale and found out that you can also buy their frozen empanadas and cook it at home, which I want to do the next time I'm in the area. read more

This place can be hard to miss if you don't know to look for it. It had some outdoor seating and some indoor seating. It had Argentinian items for sale inside along with hot empanadas and alfajores. I stopped by for lunch. It had a chill vibe inside, but I was in and out as I was taking the food to go. It was our first time coming to this location. The staff member was helpful and patient as I took my time selecting the flavors. We tried the 12 pack with an assortment of flavors. It was $49.99 for 12 empanadas, plus we got 1 free empanada. We also got some original chimichurri. We also got 2 alfajores. The total was just shy of $64. My husband is Argentinian and he approved of the yummy taste. We'll return as the empanadas and alfajores were delicious! read more
Always wanted to stop by here and finally got the chance to. Was greeted right away by the owner. He was very pleasant and friendly. Ordered the 6 pack combo (2 beef, 2 chicken, and 2 ham and cheese) to try some variety. The empanadas came out hot and freshly made and they have me try both of their regular and spicy chimichurri. The empanadas were delicious. The filling was season right and the dough was perfectly made. Great for breakfast and snacks. Can't wait to be back and try their other offerings especially their Argentine sausage. You can also buy frozen ones and bake it at home. May try that next time!! read more

I've been having this on my list to visit since I came across it. Today I finally came with the family and we got the 12 pack to mix and match to try them all. Let me say they are the BEST empanadas I've tried ! I would say my top two are the spicy cheese and mushroom && cheese. Definitely will be a go to spot. read more
Stopped by Nora's for a quick lunch. This was my first visit so I was excited to try out their offerings. The restaurant is clean, well lit and has a few tables for eating in. I ordered the spinach feta empanada, lentil empanada and guava and cream cheese. The empanadas were perfectly baked and were as delicious to my eyes as they were to taste. The crust was light and crunchy in the right places...yum. The fillings were just right and I loved that I could taste the flavors of all the main ingredients. Lots of spinach with a nice balance of feta cheese and the lentil was perfectly seasoned and flavorful. The guava and cheese is a nice dessert but I could only it about a quarter of it as I was full. Pleasantly surprised by this eatery and definitely putting it on rotation. I am looking forward to trying their breakfast empanada next time. read more

EMPANADAS - YOU CAN'T EAT JUST ONE Nora's empanadas exceed expectations. Empanada crust was light, delicate, and held together with each bite. The generously filled Spinach and Cheese empanadas complemented the light seasonings without overpowering the spinach and cheese filling. The Buffalo Chicken empanada had a bold, spicy, and traditional flavor profile. The Buffalo Chicken empanada leaves you looking for the blue cheese dip and a celery stick. The Ham and Cheese used diced ham, but a different, creamy white cheese. The cheese had an interesting flavor, but not a fit for me. Finally, the Pizza empanada has potential. It needs or needs more red pizza sauce inside for a true pizza flavor. ARNOLD SCHWARTZENEGGAR RATING I'LL BE BACK! read more

Their sign caught my eye as I was leaving a business meeting. I knew these would be perfect for my drive home. Cute little spot in a business complex. I ordered 3 hot empanadas: 1. Mushroom & Cheese - stuffed with plenty of mushrooms but was too cheesy for me 2. Ham & Cheese - enjoyed this but didn't know there was egg in it until after I ate it. Must have not tasted it 3. Spinach & Feta - my favorite one of the 3! It's stuffed and has tons of flavor I appreciate how all 3 were warm while I ate them immediately in the car ride home. Also ordered 1 of the Alfajor which I appreciate them placing in its own container. Not my kind of dessert as it has a drier consistency. I should have opted for the guava & cream cheese empanada which I had my eye on. Perhaps next time! Service was quick and nice. There was no line at 4pm but as soon as I finished my order, there was already someone behind me who was a return customer and excited for their empanadas. I'll definitely be coming back to try the others. read more
