Solo Empanadas in McAllen - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Friendly staff, great food at a reasonable price.

This place looks the part, but the food can only be described as disappointing. Not the true taste of Argentina

Very good service and the meat and mushroom empanadas with cheese were delicious. Only the chimichurri has more oil but everything else is very good 👍🏻

Despite having a small and uncomfortable dining room, it turns out to be functional for the easy menu they handle; Only Empanadas. As their name says, they have a wide variety of Argentine empanadas, made at the time the order is placed. They are really delicious 🤤 They have combos that can be attractive to each person. I like them and recommend them.

Loved the food, great service and atmosphere to dine in. Food was ready at a timely manner. Would highly recommend the combo options!

Always fresh and always hot. We love this place and it never gets old. Tasty food and salad is great as well. Great job guys!

Empanadas are okay, not the best, but they are okay. The cashier is not friendly. They should hire someone who can really at least show a fake smile for the customers.

Service is terrible. The guy at the cashier is not friendly, Cant even pretend to be nice or pleasant. The chimichuri is horrible. It's not difficult to make tasty chimichuri w Real herbs, and fresh garlic. They use very little, and I mean VERRY LITTLE DRY herbs in a lot of oil. They're also extremely weird about giving u a little to go container got sauces.

We are two friends from Argentina and we went to eat at this place, the service was terrible and took away all the expectations we had...the food was good but the chimichurri was horrible, with how easy it is to prepare it well it is a shame that they do it so bad...but I repeat, the attention we had from the cashier (a long-haired boy with a crucifix earring) was really terrible and very rude...a real shame.

The service is great. The food absolutely delicious❣️ They have a variety of delicious empanadas. A must visit place on your list!

Very delicious I recommend them

Nothing special, the salad is pretty sad iceberg lettuce, which has absolutely no nutritional value, overload of cheese , 1 slice tomato, and an olive. They got my order wrong, I ordered 3 different ones, got 2 the same, 1 different.. But what really baffled me was that they are SO weird about giving you a little 1/2 ounce plastic container to take ur little chimichurrie to go that they Serve you! They will straight up lie to you and say they don't have any.. while they have a bunch of them filled up in the front for togo orders. They rather throw away the chimichurie they serve you than give you a little container to go. Also the chimichuri is not that good. - cheap oil in Dry seasoning and Dry herbs. When good authentic chimichuri is FRESH herbs. Overall, There's no love put into their food. Service was nothing special, food was mediocre. Can't say I'll be going back

Absolutely love the food here. I’ve never ate inside the restaurant. I specifically order to-go whenever I’m hosting an event. The guests love them! Birthday parties, business meetings etc. The thing is the people at the cash register are sometimes very unpleasant. I try to still be nice and brighten their days. Smiling goes a long way!

These empanadas are amazing. I’ve had them for dine and take out on several occasions. My favorites are the chicken chipotle and rajas con queso

I tried to talk to business owners and they simply denied me.

Excelente las mejores empanadas de el Valle

Loved this place, the food is amazing!

Went for the first time and loved it. Food is really delicious and good prices. Nice place for a casual date.

Delicious empanadas but the place smells awful. Other than that you should try the mushroom with cheese

Empanadas are 5 stars but their chimichurri is 1... Parece aceite de chimichurri...charge it extra but make it right!!

Excelentes las empanadas que allí ofrecen.

Tasteful Argentinian empanada. Not fried.

Just so good. It always very fresh. Worth

Me hicieron llegar tarde al evento. Muy buenas No salen a tiempo .

Really authentic Argentine empanadas. Well worth a visit.

A great hole in the wall to get meat & veggie empanadas. The service was simple for takeout, young lady was patient and helpful. First time trying the Argentina empanadas and I will return! We thought the best one was rajas con queso (roasted poblano and corn with cheese). We tried the others which were very good too, beef, spicy beef, spinach and cheese, chicken and carne saltena.

Las empanadas están muy buenas, Me encantaron buen servicio.

The food is excellent, but my disappointment was with the packaging for the food. Left the empanada sweaty and soggy

Good empanadas with good tasting salad and salsa

Went by an hour before closing and they were only doing to-go orders.

Son ratas, docena incompleta de empanadas (solo 9)… con las pruebas en la mano la cajera alega que estaba completa 🤷🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ revisen su orden

Mal me cobraron una docena y me dieron 9 empanadas y les llamo les digo y ellos no se hacen responsables.

They're pretty good, give them a try

Highly recommend their empanas. The taste is so good and very good customer service. Also very affordable.

If these guys would figure out to make more restaurants. I would bet they would make a fortune. Because these empanadas are freaking delicious.

Ami me encantaba este lugar pero ahora el chumichurri es puro aceite, nunca le vi ni una hojita de hiervas 🤢y la ensalada es pura lechuga con una rebanada de tomate queso y 2 aceitunas antes traia aguacate y estaba rica pero ahora😒

First time visiting and had a Great experience. Will be visiting again!

Flavor 💥 possible with the chimichurri sauce one spicy beef, one spinach /cheese and one chipotle chicken with a salad 🥗

The empanadas are expensive. About 3$ each .... But making them is a hassle at home . They taste good enough to have them on occasion. The chimichiri sauce is good on salads too. The Best ones are beef and the Italian one. They are bakes but it be nice to have a fried option.

First time having authentic empanadas..very good. Food was well prepared and good quality. 2 to 3 empanadas will be enough for one person, good portion size and give dipping sauces also. Can't beat the price, quality and flavor.

Best empanadas I've ever had. The empanadas are delicious, and the sauce is even better! I would give them 10 stars

My daughters love this place, my younger girl is very special on food and she like them a lot. She said, They're good and so easy to eat them.

A little pricey but very delicious!

Las empanadas de carne con queso, las tradicionales y las de rajas con queso son mis favoritas 🤗

Service and food is excellent!! Will definitely be going back.

So the food is DELICIOUS! We've tried almost all the empanadas and truly all are so good, thus far. My favorite is the shrimp and cheese. Plus the green salsa it comes with is so flavorful and so is the oil dipping sauce. I would have given it 5 stars, but the place itself is not appealing. It has a really strong odor (as if the ventilation system is not the right size causing the restaurant to smell like a bathroom). We always take to-go. Also, the restaurant is very dark and the decor is not inviting. Doesn't make you want to stay and eat there. Other than that, the empanadas are great and also pretty big!

Food was very fresh and delicious. Ordering is a little odd. Not a typical sit down restaurant where you'll be waited on. Order at the counter, take a seat and they will bring it out to you. Very casual setting. Sodas and drinks are bottled only. Empanadas are very fresh, and extremely packed with filling. Meat is certainly different than what I am used to, but in a good way. Just one of those empanadas and their delicious large salads is more than enough for a good meal.

Excellent empanadas of traditional Argentinian style andthey also make some rather non-traditional empanadas. I must try for most anyone!

The empanadas are amazingly delicious I always get shrimp and cheese and salad is so fresh and a great side to the empanadas! Eating here is always an experience to my tastebuds, my husband and I are hooked!

Very tasty empanadas. You fill up with 2 of them! Enjoyed the shrimp and cheese and Chipotle.

Ver close taste to home made Argentinian empanadas, I'd recommend the empanada salteña

Excellent empanadas. Taste like home 😋

Muy acogedor y excelente servicio. Me encantan las empanadas argentinas.

Great food, service and prices!

I love their chimichurri sauce.

Definitivamente una cosa de locos, que empanadas tan deliciosas, mientras las disfrutaba me transporte a Buenos Aires. Vayan no se las puede perder, todas son riquísimas ♥️♥️♥️

Good empanadas never had this style but its worth it every single bite

This is another unique place to the South Texas area that I like to eat at or order from. Highly recommended, the chimichurri sauce is awesome. Try it you won't regret it. A little pricey, very different food to our taste buds but well worth the experience.

The best empanadas I’ve ever had!!! Customer service are nice and friendly. I usually order 2 empanadas because they are pretty big and delicious!!! Las mejores empanadas que eh tenido!!! Sabor de Argentina!!

Best empanadas by far! I love this place! Every time I go back home I have to stop and get some! I even buy some uncooked ones to bring home! I wish there was one in Houston!!

It's first time going and we stopped by chance, cause my mom wanted empanadas. But she don't it was going to be the fruit kind, but turns out it's with actual food, like shrimp and cheese, ham and cheese, and quite a few others, but named those cause those the ones I got. She got some other ones, and boy were they better than we thought. I would highly recommend going if you love empanadas

It was a very nice experience. Variety of empanadas to select from. My favorite were the shrimp and cheese. We ordered one dozen. All the empanadas are a little over 2 dollars so you can order a mix if you'd like. Enjoy.

Ricas muy limpio simplemente excelentes

Great Argentinian empanadas , good for small events !!

Hadn't been there in a few years but the empanadas were just as delicious as I remember and the chimichurri was addicting. Service was fast and the lady behind the counter was polite. Will definitely be back soon!

Las mejores empanadas del valle 😋

Best empanada, a slightly crispy outer shell but soft and chewy bread inside filled with meat [never had one with meat before today]. Was used to sweet empanadas with fruit filling. Its a game changer though. Had 2 chicken empanadas and 1 of the chicken chipotle. They give you some chimichuri sauce on the side [very similar to an italian dipping oil with herbs] which made it even better just for a kick.

Awesome food, really delicious prices are not that pricey but not cheap. But worth it. Love the salad with ranch and chimichurri.

This place is a really nice change of pace. Salads and really unique empanadas.

Delicious empanadas! Their herb dipping sauce is very tasty.

Nicely made empanadas. Great flavor and choices to pick.

La empleada parecía estar de mal humor, las empanadas estaban bien de sabor.

Very delicious and filling and so many empanadas to choose from.

Muy ricas, solo un poco grasosas.

The empanadas at this restaurant are delicious. At first I thought that they were sweet empanadas however this are not lol. They only sale empanadas which are to die for. When I go I usually order the 'rajas de queso', chicken and crepesco. Every time I go they never disappoint, the food is always fresh and warm. Also they add a cheese to the salad that is so delicious. I wish I knew the name of the cheese lol. I simply love it. I really recommend this place I am a frequent customer myself. :)

The lady in the front was nice and helpful. The empanadas are tasty and full of flavor. no complaints here. I will definitely be back🙂

Great Empanadas and great service

I love all of the choices but the shrimp and cheese empanada is my favorite!

Always hot fresh and originaly great.

Excelentes empanadas, las recomiendo

These empanadas are very good and always consistent with big bold flavors. Chimichirri and hot sauces give them that kick to make them delicious.

Cozy little shop. Easy ordering. The empanadas are all good, but my fave are the meat and cheese. The salad is soooo fresh!

It was not a bad place to eat, it’s just I got 3 different types of empanadas(carne, spicy carne, and carne with cheese) and they pretty much all tasted the same. maybe it’s my fault for what I chose. The empanadas were sized pretty good, and they came out looking just like the pictures. The salsas weren’t the best, esp the green one since it was so watered down.

Holy jesus, i ordered 6 empanadas and i thought they were gonna be small! Really good. Loved the carne con qeso empanadas especially with the salsa

The beef was so flavorful, and the empanada was sturdy and very easy to eat. Their chimichurri sauce was really good. I've tasted similar sauces at other places that aren't even close to as good as that one. This is one of my 5 star places, and I'm looking forward to going again. Great deals, variety of meats and fillings, and you can eat, get full, and Stull have leftovers to take with you. We spent around $15 for two with two empanadas to take home.

Stopped for lunch on Saturday, no wait, friendly staff, the salad was super fresh. I ordered the spicy meat which was very flavorful. The enpanadas are filling so I ended taking leftovers.

Las empanadas están muy ricas, les recomiendo la de camarones con queso. Cualquier empanada que pidas esta bien llena del guisado. Me gustó que compre media docena de empanadas y me regalaron un ensalada bien rica con mucho queso y aguacate. Las salsas que te dan para las empanadas también les da un buen complemento.

Somos asiduos en este lugar. Bueno es simple y fantástico. Salsa chimichurri es increíble. Me encanta muchas opciones para las empanadas. Platos vegetarianos.

Empanadas argentinas con variedad de sabores y diferentes carnes, rajas con queso, champiñones con queso , camarón con queso ,carne picante, pollo on chipotle etc etc . Lugar pequeño pero cómodo y tranquilo , con decoraciones en la pared de playeras de futbol y unos cuadros q cuelgan en la pared adornando el lugar con baile de tango.

Tomate, albahaca y queso Empanada era buena y eran muy buenos. Empanadas Argentino parece ser más pequeña que la de los Mexicanos, pero muy buena.

Delicious empanadas and excellent salad! Love this place.

camarones con queso es mi favorito!

Delicious Rajas de Queso empanadas and salad too. Dressing was a delicious mix. Definetly going back and inviting others to try!

Descargo de responsabilidad: Estos no son mexicanos, son argentino empanadas empanadas. De cualquier manera son deliciosos! Buen ambiente con objetos, deportes cool ofrece wifi, la salsa chimmichurri era impresionante, el precio era bueno y se ofrecieron así combos. Una de mis favoritas, nuevo

Nada especial. What you see is what you get.

If you like really doughy empanadas then this is your place… I don’t care for them personally…don’t find them very argentine authentic …

Delicious empanadas! Friendly Staff, Great tasting food.😊

These empanadas are GOOOOD. I always order too many.

The empanadas are excellent and love that they have vegetarian options that are especially tasty. If you haven't had these empanadas yet, don't hesitate and try them today!

Delicious empanadas filled with a variety of meats or veggies. So many of them are so delicious that I can't pick a favorite!!! I love to pick these up and take them home for dinner... You won't be disappointed!! YUMMY!!!
