Buenos Aires native, Diego Nunez, opened the Covington location in June of 2022 & he's bringing us Argentine style empanadas with a delicious twist, including authentic flavors from around the world. He & his team have curated 16 varieties of empanadas that you can either have hot & ready or you can get them frozen to take home for a family dinner, a special event, or just a late night snack! I got the Chips & Salsa, Esquites, and Chicago, Buenos Aires & Banana Empanadas. Everything is hot & fresh, the bold flavors hit bite after bite & I could eat their Chimichurri on anything! The service was excellent as well, everyone was so kind & welcoming! My favorite bites were the Buenos Aires Empanada & the Esquites. I highly recommend! Have you tried them yet?

The interior is very eclectic in decor with moody lighting & perfect for a date night with a friend or partner. Family friendly as well with large booths, coloring books, & highchairs upon request. In the winter time, their fireplaces upstairs & downstairs keep it toasty & cozy. The empanadas are the best in town & worth a visit just for that! They have a few gluten free options. Try the short rib empanada & the spinach w/mozzarella empanada & get the fundido mac & cheese! It is an unknown lgbtq+ friendly establishment with staff to match ! You'll find both allies & family here. Great bartenders, TVs for sports + more, & you can even enjoy a cocktail on their patio on summer days! A must visit spot in Cincinnati! :)

We did…read morea pisco sour and a blueberry cocktail (which was more on the sweeter side than I prefer but flavor was good!). Yuca fries for a starter. They were good for snacking, but not quite on the same level as the empanadas. We did a sort of empanadas sampler with spinach and cheese, Cuban, Korean BBQ, carne, buffalo chicken, and short rib. The only ones I don't personally prefer are the Cuban (not much of a ham person) and the carne (the hard boiled egg and olive in it weren't my fav additions). We tried their no-bake cake for dessert. Not something we'd say we disliked, but it wasn't something we'd crave either. Good service. Ambiance is a little busy for my taste, but they sort of have that dive bar feel to their other location as well.

The sandwiches are served with pita chips, which I did not realize while ordering. I added a side of fries for $3.95, but you could probably skip, as the sandwich with chips was filling enough.

We got on the QR code at the table and found this as we both love hummus, so we got the Syrian chicken and some hummus for an appetizer. This place is just a huge food court and feels that way.

Based on my rave, my friend later had the crispy tofu version and gave it two thumbs up. Service is quick and friendly.

The event had 10 of us and was eating with our hands off banana leaves. We reserved our tickets in advance for a seafood menu and it was creative and flavorful (especially the Caesar salad and dessert).

Service was attentive and explained the meal throughly. I look forward to their next event!
