I travel a lot and I think these are probably the best empanadas I’ve ever had. I tried 5 different savory ones and 2 different sweet ones. They were ALL amazing. My favorite were the al pastor and the birria. Both sweet ones were good but the cheesecake was beyond. For all of them the crust is think, crispy and flaky.
Do not sleep on this place!!
The empanadas are delicious. We had beef, chicken, spinach and cheese, spicy black bean and Birria. The sandwich’s are pretty tasty too. They make a secret sauce you can purchase too. I’ve been a coupe of times it’s always clean and the staff is really nice and helpful. Ten out of ten would totally recommend.
We had the Porchetta and the choripan. Both sandwiches are pretty good. The flan was delicious. The birria empanada is my favorite . The chicken empanada didn't have much flavor but it wasn't that bad. They sell wine and local beers. Overall, cool place and good customer service. I'll definitely be back for more.
Best Empanadas we’ve had in a while. We got the beef, breakfast, birria, spinach & cheese, and the spicy bean. All were freshly made and delicious. The restaurant looks great and would be a nice place to sit down and eat. The only issue I can imagine is parking. Very small parking area, but street parking is around the corner. New favorite spot
Was craving for empanadas the other day and saw Lord Empanadas in Monrovia. Decided to give it a try, it is a little pricey, $3.50 per piece, 1 dozen for $36. At first, I didn't see the price for 1 dozen, so I bought 8 empanadas which cost $36, I wished the lady at the cashier told me about the dozen special. I went back 2 days later to get 1 dozen, 3 beef, 3 chicken, 2 pizza, 2 sausage and 2 bacon. The reason I went back was because my wife and son wanted more, they loved it very much. The beef and chicken empanadas are very good, a great mixture of spices and flavor. Pizza is pretty normal which my son loved. The breakfast sausage and bacon are great too. Overall, great empanadas w/ excellent outer crust, however, in my opinion the fillings are too little.
