I ordered the beef empanada ($5) and also had a bite of the ratatouille one. I enjoyed the ratatouille, but the beef empanada was my favorite. They come with chipotle mayo and green sauce, but I thought the beef empanada was seasoned so well and had enough flavor on its own so I didn’t end up using the sauces. The beef empanada contains delicious melted cheese that oozes out, and I believe the ratatouille empanada also had some cheese.

But the empanda....I thought they looked a little overdone. NOPE. Light,flaky crunch followed by perfectly cooked dough. While the beef one disappointed (i was not thinking it would be ground beef), the chicken was outrageous.
