Empanada Kitchen - San Diego

Best empanadas I’ve had. Larger than typical (3 is plenty) with great breading. Beef 9/10. Almost didn’t order this one since i thought it was basic, but it was very flavorful with the chimichurri sauce. Mushroom Goat cheese 10/10 phenomenal. Great balance between the two flavors and outstanding texture. Lamb 7/10. Seems to be the most popular on here, and while I love lamb and this had a delicious lamb flavor, I thought it could’ve been a bit more tender/juicy. Don’t get me wrong, it was still great, hence the 7/10.

Very cute and eye catching restaurant that offers the best empanadas I’ve ever had. Caprese and lamb are highly recommended. Hopefully they’ll use non-disposable utensils for dine-in guests though.

Great place for a quick bite as these are in warm ovens and ready to eat many different flavors and combo choices (with nice salad) at a reasonable price. Love the chimichiri sauce.

It was super fast, no line, it was good! The spicy sauce is yummy and more flavorful than the other sauce they have. The chicken and beef and caprese are good! The vegetarian ratatouille has way too much liquid and became soggy and fell apart, it was hard to eat and disappointing . Overall it was a good experience. Besides the fact the bathroom had 30 or so flies on my second visit. 2 of them is a filling snack/small breakfast!

This is the best food i found in San Diego. Simple but supremely well done. Beautiful Lil empanadas, and the chimichurri is stellar, perfectly balanced. And it's not expensive!
