Empanada King — Restaurant in Melbourne

OMG WOW! These are the absolute BEST empanadas I have ever eaten! They come in a variety of meals where you can mix and match flavors like beef, pork, black bean/ pland cheese. They probably have even more if you ask. They are GLUTEN FREE and the flavor is spectacular! I tried the cheese and my husband got the beef and black bean with plantains. The owner even makes homemade sauces. A green mild and red spicy. Mix the two and you have and amazing flavor and a little heat to go along with the flavor of the empanadas! The cheese is a food lovers dream. Cheese just dripping out of the middle of this creation is like a piece of fine art! What can I say except that I have been craving these empanadas since I had them last week! The owner is kind, professional and the restaurant at Renningers flea market (one of two locations) is very basic with not much seating but easy enough to find. The overall experience makes this unassuming restaurant seem like just another food booth when it is a diamond among the crowd. Who knew you could get 5 star service and food at a flea market!

I have decided that for football weekends I am going to special order a dozen of these and take them home. The overall customer service and atmosphere is so welcoming and you feel like family. Don't miss your chance to try authentic empanadas made with love from a family run business that literally put their heart and soul into making these the best...

George is always so fun and engaging when we go in there. He makes you feel as though he’s been waiting on you to arrive. He gives you the run down on the empanadas of the day and then takes your order. I’ve tried just about every flavor they offer and each is just as delicious as the last. The beef/pork and the meatball are my faves though.

They also have 2 green sauces. One that’s spice and one that’s not spicy. Both are delicious to me, so I like ti mix them.

They are located inside of Renninger’s Flea Market. We visit the flea market just to get empanadas on our way out. Sometimes we even place a bigger order so we have some...

If you haven't been to Empanada King, you're missing out, great customer service. The owner and his wife are very nice people. They came to the table and talked with us like if we've known each other forever. It was a very pleasant experience. The empanadas were delicious, chicken beef/pork, and to top it off, we had guava cheese and plantain empanada for dessert. My wife and I had a very pleasant time, and we will...
