I found these frozen empanadas in my freezer when my girlfriend was out of town and I didn’t want to cook for myself. Threw them in the oven for 30 minutes and had the most amazing dinner I’ve ever made. These empanadas have a super flakey doughy crust, like a pastry. I just had to order another dozen so they’ll be here before she gets back because I ate them all.

I tried these empanadas at the West Coast Craft fair last weekend and they’re the best empanadas I’ve had in the Bay Area. Also a great food to eat when you’re walking around a fair and you don’t have a place to sit down at a table.

Best empanadas! Fair price, great friendly server. This is a review for their food truck specifically but I’m sure it’s the same in the restaurant!

El Sur has catered a few event for the nonprofit I work for and they are always incredible! The food is filling but perfect as passed apps and the desserts are delicious. They’re our favorite

By far, THE BEST Argentine empanadas I’ve had in the bay area. Crispy flaky dough, very well stuffed with deliciousness, and freshly baked. Please keep doing what you’re doing!!

Delicious empanadas! We did catering for lunch and their empanadas were delicious. Full of meat and protein! Even eggs.

Will NOT recommend! I tried their empanadas at an office event and it was good. For the holidays, I make an online order on 12/22 Thursday for next day pick up on 12/23 Friday. Their online system took my order and my credit card payment. I also got an email receipt to confirm my order. After an hour drive to their restaurant at Noon on 12/23, surprisingly I found their restaurant was closed. I called and rang their doorbell multiple times and couldn’t get hold of anyone. I waited around for an hour hoping the owner or someone may show up. No one was there and I was not able to get my paid order. If it’s a holiday hour change, they should post that on their website and not to take orders, and change the hours on google research as well. This is very disappointing and a waste of my time, and my holiday dinner plan had to change a bit. I couldn’t share the empanadas with the neighbors as planned. I will NOT recommend this business to anyone, no credibility!

I grabbed takeout here for lunch and it was perfect. I got the meal combo with two empanadas and a side salad, and it was so much food I couldn’t finish it. I ordered the traditional beef empanada and the verde empanada, and both were delicious. The side salad was HUGE and crisp, very fresh. 10/10, would grab lunch here again any time.
