Great $2.50 empanadas, grilled chicken, tomato & onion salad and other Argentinian specialties. Don't be dissuaded by the location within the liquor store. Great service, food and value! Cold beer on tap too. Several small tables inside.

Had a craving for empanadas after watching the Netflix street food episode on Latin America. Discovered a local Argentinian place in the back of a liquor store that makes probably a dozen different flavors. I called ahead for pickup and the sweet auntie working here baked them all to order for me an...

I had high hopes after reading the reviews. The empanadas were ok at best. Not much flavor and these need to be bold. If you know what empanadas from Argentina taste like don't expect it from here. Cost for a side was a bit much for what you get as well.

This spot in Tustin deserves to be one of the best Restaurants in CA. I personally drive 45' to get anything from the menu...excelente quality, service and price. I recommend you to try it, take it home or catering for an event. My favorite Lomito or any empanadas...just by texting this makes me wan...

I love the empanadas and the prosciutto sandwich. The prosciutto sandwich is on a fresh baguette with lettuce, tomatoes and tons of thinly shaved prosciutto. Ive had the cheese, corn, spicy chicken and beef empanadas. I love them all. The restaurant is in a liquor store in the back of the store....

Empanadas! Need i really say more? No but really their empanadas are super delicious. Best part is you can get some to eat there and some to reheat later at home and they will be equally delicious. My friends love it when i bring these over for dinner or snacking.

Hidden gem! When we pulled into the parking lot, we thought we were at the wrong place. This place is behind a liquor store. We would have imagined that. You order at the cashier in the back and the food is served for you on the table. We tried the milanese a La Farola and it was absolutely amazing!...

READ IN FULL : I give Five * ONLY so that review show up FIRST because Google shows HIGHEST reviews first. This deli is unsanitary I saw live bugs in the food prep area and the pizza tastes like rubber. The food that is left uneaten by diners is cleared away and RE-SERVED to new unsuspecting custome...

Excellent! I had some co-workers who told me about this place and said they have great empanadas and it's in the back of a liquor store??? So I happen to be going by there today and thought I'd try it. I had the spicy beef and a couple others. It was wonderful. :-)

I've been looking all over OC for good empanadas like the ones I grew up with made by my Argentine mother. These were fantastic, well priced, in a quaint little store where locals just happen to break into song. I wish I could've stayed longer to listen to them.
I'll be back.

They are careless about their customer service. I arrived to pick up lunch, and the girl told me to sit down it will be out soon. It was called in a while ago so I thought it would be ready as I had to get other places. I waited a while and finally asked her again and she looked it up, it was an ord...
