The Empanada's Fort Lauderdale — Restaurant in Fort Lauderdale

If you’re looking for an authentic Argentinian experience, The Empanadas is definitely worth a visit! This cozy spot offers a wide range of empanada flavors, blending traditional recipes with creative twists. The store itself is clean and well-maintained, with a welcoming atmosphere complemented by relaxing background music. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure your visit is as enjoyable as possible.

During our visit, we decided to try the tofu, salmon, and cheese & onion empanadas. Each had its own unique texture and flavor. The cheese and onion empanada was perfectly creamy, delivering that rich, melty bite that cheese lovers crave. The salmon empanada was an unexpected but delightful surprise—flaky, flavorful, and well-seasoned. The tofu empanada, while smooth and enjoyable, could have used a bit more seasoning or an extra ingredient to enhance its flavor, as tofu on its own tends to be quite mild.

One of the best things about The Empanadas is its prime location, making it an easy and convenient stop whether you’re out for a casual stroll or running errands. Whether you’re a fan of classic empanadas or eager to try new flavors, this spot has something for everyone. It’s a great place to grab a quick bite, enjoy a cozy meal, and savor a little taste...

The empanadas were very tasty amazing selection. I didn’t get a chance to try the croissants yet, but they had these croissants. The size of head staff was very friendly very accommodating. I wanted to get a cold brew coffee for some reason they didn’t have any which was a little disappointing I was surprised so that would be the only negative and there was nobody in the location besides the staff so I guess that kind of brought it down a little bit as far as the atmosphere but awesome place I’m definitely gonna be going back and the empanadas were actually baked. They weren’t greasy it was nice. It was very surprising. Each one is a meal and they’re like $four dollars. A nice change it was a good selection like I said the staff was very very nice that adds to the quality of the place when you have a very accommodating friendly staff to me it makes the place that much better. There’s nothing worse than having good food and a bad staff. This was good food and a good staff. What mortgage asked for like I said maybe next time they’ll be some more people in the location so it’ll make it a little bit more of an atmosphere but besides that it was perfect it really was and of course, like I said the coffee, but that’s not the end...

So the promo advertised here on the sign standing outside this store is completely false advertising. I went to get the 6 for $3.60 + one free and I get charged basically $3.60 for all 7 so I asked them what’s going on it says here $3.60 for each empanada plus one free when you get half a dozen and they tell me that it’s either $4.20 for 6 + one free or $3.60 for the 7. LOL huh??? So as you can see, there’s nothing confusing about this. It’s just pure false advertising. I highly recommend the owners do something about their false advertising. The guy up front who works there has to answer to all the people who ask him why the promotion is falsely advertised and the poor guy has nothing to say because well it’s not OK by the owners. The only good thing about this place is the guy who works up front...
