Our server was great! She was nice, checked on us and refilled our waters frequently. Entrees: - Pabellion Criollo: meat was a little too salty for my friend's taste but she said the rice balances it out really well. They accommodated her request for scrambled instead of fried eggs. - Asado Negro: Sooo good. It was like, beef and gravy, but better. They allowed me to sub the beans for extra rice - Surf and turf sandwich: Hubby said it was okay but adding more of the green sauce helped a bit - Filet mignon (can't remember the exact name): our other friend liked his staff as well! They also accommodated his request to have the egg on the side. I guess it could be a hole in the wall place since it's in an unassuming small business strip but the music was good and everyone loved the food! Be warned: there is only 1 bathroom so plan your potty break accordingly...

The interior was cozy and stylish, a nice mix between a restaurant and cafe in the absolute best way possible. The staff were super friendly, they took the time to chat and gave me some great recommendations. I went with the spicy brisket and park, both were phenomenal. The flavor was super rich and savory with just enough spice to have a kick without being overpowering. The dough was thin, flakey, and golden. It was perfect! I grew up only eating Puerto Rican empanadas so I wasn't sure what to expect but this place blew me away. Amazing food, great vibes and kind people. An absolute 5/5 that I'll definitely be back to.

Little Patagonia has their own parking lot (which is rare downtown), plus a nice outdoor patio. The food was great, service was quick and was an easy process considering it was a packed event. Highly recommend the brisket empanadas, so flavorful and delicious! The chicken ones were packed with flavor too. My boyfriend had the bacon, egg, and cheese empanada and said it was tasty, though he wished there was a bit more bacon. Overall, a cool spot to bring someone who's visiting Austin or if you just want to try something different. Will definitely be back to try out more foods and the wines!

IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO DELIGHTFULLY…read more Empanadas! Disclaimer: This is a blog I wrote last September. I still feel the same way! Argentine empanadas are famous all over the world, but if you have been to Argentina or have Argentine friends, they're impossible to miss! I was born and raised in Argentina and as a foodie, I don't go easy on my reviews--especially not on food that I love. Just a few months ago a friend of mine started a catering business, and empanadas are her specialty item. She offers ten different kinds of these savory pastry turnovers, so customers are treated to a varied and very flavorful experience. Last week, she brought a sampler platter to my office that included beef, chicken, and vegetarian options, and my colleagues and I got to taste some unique flavors. A traditional empanada's main ingredient is beef and my friend calls hers "Carne de las Pampas," or "Meat from the Plains"--coincidentally, my mom and dad greBeef empanadas.w up in La Pampa, a province known for its extensive ranches and superior-quality beef. These empanadas are filled with ground beef, onions, bell pepper, tomatoes, and a combination of spices. I really wanted to try them, but they were gone in the blink of an eye. My colleagues were licking their fingers and grinning. The "Tex-Mex" is already a favorite among Tango Delights' current clients since Austinites are used to Tex-Mex restaurants and spicy food. These empanadas are a twist of the traditional and come with jalapeños plus some secret "awesome!" spices. Spinach and Butternut Squash empanadas. My personal favorite ended up being the "Paisana," which is one of the vegetarian empanadas. The ingredients include spinach, onions, bell peppers, Parmesan cheese, more "awesome!" seasoning, and butternut squash. Just one bite had me smiling! The butternut squash in particular made this different from any other empanada I've tried, and it was marvelous. I'll definitely be ordering some of these for my next party! The other vegetarian empanada was the "Humita," and this one has corn mixed with a creamy white sauce, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes and, once again, the secret-recipe seasoning. It was flavorful, rich and left me wanting more. Additional options include traditional chicken, Cajun chicken, cheese and onion, ham and cheese, hand-chopped flank steak, and a breakfast empanada with bacon. A side salad can be ordered as well and it will come with your dressing of choice. Tango Delights is looking to expand in the near future to a brick and mortar location, and I will definitely provide an update for when this happens. In the meantime, order some to enjoy with your family or bring them to your next potluck party--you're sure to be the sensation of the evening if you do!

It is counter service, which is consistently friendly and efficient. The size of the empanada is large, with one, possibly two being plenty for a meal. The flavors are robust, with many choices of ingredients. They beef, chicken, vegetarian, dessert, and. Few sandwiches on their menu. We frequently make the 35 mile drive from our house solely to eat here on a Saturday, or whenever we're in the downtown area. Do yourself a favor and give them a try!!

Chinatown Restaurant off Mopac…read more We went to the Chinatown Restaurant off of Mopac last Thursday for dinner (Mar 2,23). We have been there many times & sometimes the food was delicious & ample portions, and then other times it was just very ho-hum-not good flavor, poor portions. But this time, it was AWFUL. The food had a very rancid taste (the special chef's beef dish - which is really orange beef) & the pork rice dish was also rancid tasting & mushy. The service was good but that is about it. So this will be our last trip to that restaurant for sure. So buyer beware going there-using old, rancid oil -YUK.

First time here! Came during lunch time and we were seated immediately…read more Husband got the creole breakfast and I ordered their pesto mushroom risotto. Husband enjoyed his plate and finished it within a few minutes. It came with 2 different types of sauces: a white cilantro flavored one and a red mild sauce that was a bit spicy for him. The pesto mushroom risotto was good, but a little salty for my liking. If you want to add protein, it's ~$6 for beef or shrimp and ~$4 for chicken. Overall, it was good! We'll most likely be back. I want to try their empanadas next time!

The restaurant itself is sizable, when I came on a Sunday in March there was plenty of seating available. We came just for drinks, and my friend got a charcuterie board. The drink menu isn't particularly long, but I enjoyed the marg-like drink that I had. My friend got a Buenos Aires tea drink of sorts that he didn't really like, but it looked interesting. The charcuterie board was big! It was like $25 I think? And our server was attentive. Overall - I wasn't blown away by my experience here. It's a nice place, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come again. That said it's in a nice part of east Austin so pretty accessible, and worth a visit if you're nearby.

The dough was soft and a little flakey, the filings were so well seasoned. We had Carne Suave and Lenleja. Followed by assortment of the three sausages and breads. Our favorite was Salchicha Rarrillera! Then we had Cesar salad and chefs cut of beef at medium rare and grilled chicken. We definitely had to take some stuff home because we were stuffed. Then we were treated for a desert (it was our anniversary!) I LOVE tres leches and....guess what...? They have Quatro Leches !!!! This one of the best ones I've had so far: not too sweet, be very delicate and fluffy texture, just right! Our server recommended to try Malbec and I went with Luca. It was a good full bodied and rich pour I will happily order again! It was pretty slow at the time we went in, so we enjoyed a quiet brunch. Actually enjoyed, it was peaceful!
