La Empanaderia EPTX — Restaurant in El Paso

The empanadas are well made and the finished product is beautiful. The dough or crust is delicious....almost Brilliant.... and the fillings are appropriate. The Monday deal is the best bargain. The servers are wonderful. That being said, the food needs to be warmer when served and the fillings lack a little flavor. The filling itself is wonderful, but it simply needs to be seasoned better....and sorry El Paso, that doesn't mean more chillis!....A pinch more of savory herbs, salt and black pepper would be the difference between good and World Class....Lastly, dressings need to be a bit more creative than, ranch and chili infused ranch. The Chimichurri was very good...A cilantro lime sauce, a sofrito sauce, a sweetened chili (grape jelly and siracha) would be game changing! Just Want To See This GREAT Food Idea Succeed!! We will be back!

On Christmas Eve, my family and I decided to go out for dinner even though it wasn't planned and after trying 3 restaurants that we had called ahead to confirm they were open but in fact said they were closing early, we accidentally came across this place and let me tell you, best accidental find EVER! We got a wide variety of their empanadas to try everything and I loved that they stamp on the top the initials of what you order. Makes splitting everything so easy. My kids and husband loved the chorizo, Buffalo chicken and the pepperoni empanadas. I didn't even get a chance to try them because they are them so fast lol. I got the ham and cheese, and the Philly cheesesteaks which was so good with the chimichurri sauce. That sauce was so delicious! We even got desert and I loved the leche quemada and my kids loved the Nutella. All in all this is a great place, nice staff, delicious food and sauces and was a great adventure trying...

First of all, the empanadas here are delicious. We came in to do a tasting for an event we were having and honestly, every type they make is unique and tasty! I was surprised by their chicken Empanada and beef habanero, both fantastic.

Second, their sauces are phenomenal. The chimichurri and chipotle were my favorite, but all of them make an excellent dipling sauce. The quantities are also perfect for the size of empanadas.

Last, the service was excellent. The ladies I ordered from originally for the tasting and after for the actual event, were both very helpful and friendly. I asked how long they'd need to fill an order of 6 dozen empanadas.... 25 minutes. Perfect! I ordered these last minute as an appetizer for a larger family event, and everyone loved and devoured them. Perfect...
