    I'm so happy to have finally made it to this small, local store offering up some delicious Argentinian empanadas and other treats. The hardest thing was trying to decide which of the empanadas to try, they all sounded and looked delicious. They have some unique flavors that I've never seen elsewhere such as mushroom, prosciutto and Brie, short rib, sweet corn, and cheeseburger. They also serve mini quiche, croissant sandwiches, soup, salads, flatbreads, egg's Benedict, breakfast and brunch all day. They offer several different types of coffees both hot and cold and the iced mocha latte I had tasted great. There are a few tables if you choose to eat in and the place is spotless. The lady that helped us was very nice and patiently answered my questions. It's a bit on the pricey side which I don't mind paying for quality food.

    SPINACH & MOZZARELLA EMPANADA

    Actually was going to grab a slice of pizza next door and noticed the A Family authentic Argentinian empanada shop. My brow began to sweat having to decide between pizza or empanadas but my aching gut told me to choose the empanada for a pre-lunch snack. The sidewalk business sign promote students by offering a 10% discount with campus ID which is commendable. Loved the light wooden flooring and well matched seating which had a beachy relaxed ambiance. The menu says "The Best Empanadas" and chose the recommended Spinach & Mozzarella Empanada for $4.50 which the employee quickly heated up. Sat at one of the comfy chairs accented with throw pillows and folded blankets. Placed my golden flaky treat on the round marble table in front of me. The weight of the oddly dense circular empanada had a light crusted char and was unexpected. Each bite allowed the melted cheese to ooze out and the dark green spinach showed it's face. Excellent, Excellent, Excellent. The gender neutral bathroom had a small baby and lady design on the front door so was hesitant and slightly confused. The room was very clean and provided a baby changing table with a nice tan colored wood and wicker cabinet. Will return with the wife for another tasty empanada maybe short ribs or pumpkin & spinach.

    After seeing this place pop up on Yelp a few times, I finally decided to check it out. It's a charming, authentic Argentinian spot -- family-run and full of warmth. The setup is inviting, with a few different areas where you can sit back, relax, and enjoy good company over some classic dishes. I tried the beef and short rib empanadas -- both were solid, but the beef definitely stood out more for me. The flavors were good, though I was hoping for something that truly set them apart from what I could find elsewhere. Still, the quality and freshness are there, and you can tell they care about what they serve. If you're in the mood for empanadas or want to hang out somewhere casual with friends and family, this is a nice local spot to visit. I'll definitely give it another try soon and explore a few more dishes on the menu to see what else they've got going on. #GoodStuff

    Came for breakfast. Walked into a very relaxing atmosphere with chair seating and couch seating. Clean and cute decor. Service was quick and food was good. Many choices for empanadas. My short rib Benedict was excellent. My husband had the omelette with Brie and prosciutto and he thought it was only ok. Will definitely come back to try their empanadas and coffee.

    This is my $24.99 order of steak and fries! I've never been more disappointed and left hungry.

    I really wanted to love this visit because I've had such a great experience here before. I first came late last year and absolutely loved it -- the food was delicious, the portions were generous, and I was happy enough with the experience to bring a friend back. This past Friday, I dined in and ordered the same steak togo. While it tasted good, when you add salt and pepper. The portion was noticeably smaller than before. It honestly looked like i received a cut down version of a 3-4 ounce piece of steak, and at $23.99, it just didn't feel worth the price. I left feeling not fully satisfied, which was disappointing considering how great it used to be. That same day, I ordered the same meal to-go along with three empanadas. Again, the portions didn't match what I remember from my previous visit. I received the wrong order on one empanada. I was highly upset because I had to throw it away since it was only cheese inside. This is a good mom-and-pop spot, and I truly want to see them succeed. The food still tastes good but not the same flavoring as my previous visits -- if portion sizes change, especially at the current price point. It may leave customers feeling like they're not getting the value they once did. I hope they reconsider whatever adjustments were made, because what they were doing before worked much better. Attached, I'm including the photo of what they gave me on my togo order.

    For eat-in, A Family offers a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. The staff is friendly and very accommodating, the food is delicious. Each time we visited we really enjoyed our coffee and empenadas. For take out, it seems they can't get it quite right yet. The quiche came burned. The plain croissant had a sugar coating even though I bought a plain one. The guava jelly was marmelade and had little if any guava flavor. I am looking forward to visiting again though because when they do it right it seems to be a really nice place.

    Once again this place hit the spot. Good service, delish food and cozy ambiance. We tried the Short ribs empanada, Beef empanada, cortadios, Cafe con leche. Sophia was very hospitable. It's hidden on a bend, hence truly a hidden

    The empanadas here are DELICIOUS!!! Super soft and flaky crust. The traditional beef is my fave!

    Passed this spot several times when I was waiting for it to open. Been twice since it opened and I remember how tasty their empanadas are. The space is very bright and clean. Everything is displayed so beautifully and my OCD is happy with the empanada display case! They have so many different flavored empanadas it's actually difficult to decide which to try. So we've only had the traditional beef and chicken curry empanadas so far. I have to say this spot might be one of my favorite empanadas to date. They heat up the empanadas for you and the crust is soft and yet flaky like a good pastry should be! The flavors of the traditional beef is wow! So much flavor, definitely not bland. I love curry so I had to try the curry chicken. Not gonna lie, I don't love it. I feel like it needs a lot more curry flavor and a spicy kick would be awesome too. I'm dying to try the other flavors. I'll be back to get an assortment of empanadas so my family can taste test several different flavors. They offer sweet pastries here too. The staff here is so nice and attentive. Come check them out. Especially during Hispanic Heritage Month!

    This was next to the gym, so I decided to get my energy back by getting myself a couple of comfort food items. I'm a fan of savory pastries, so this was winning my heart already. I got their empanada of the day, which was the chicken curry. This was tasty and the meat was filling the pastry, not half assed, which I like. The other one was the prosciutto, mushroom and brie. It was very salty, which I don't mind, because the prosciutto can be that despite not seeing any chunks of it. I guess they melted into the brie cheese, but you can see the mushrooms. I also picked up their refreshing smoothie called the Green Power. Sweet, but it's expected since it's a mix of three fruits and one leafy ingredient. The staff seemed somewhat friendly, but more on the shy/timid side. Ambiance - it felt like a nice cozy place to sit down and chat with your friends. They had some music playing, but it wasn't too loud. They also have coffee, matcha and turmeric infused beverages, so that's something I'll look forward to on top of their bakery items.

    Located in the Countryside Shoppes, this Argentinian bakery was a bit confusing to my if of o didn't want empanadas. There was a big beautiful case of empanadas and a variety of prepackaged sweet treats that looked lovely to bring to a get together. I came in looking for a little sweet treat though and the selection wasn't as large as I thought it would be. The young man behind the counter was nice but not very descript (or maybe articulate) when I asked about certain items. I went with his recommendation as he mentioned it was the closest to a guava pastry and something about being made with sweet potato. It was fairly small in size coming in at $2.50 plus tax. The taste was ok but I don't know if I'll venture back unless I'm in the mood to try their empanadas. The food on the menu was no where on display to perhaps entice a new customer who is unfamiliar with what they offer. The store looked clean and bright and was empty when I came in around 4 or 5 pm. Not sure if I'll return.

    Menu

    A HUGE variety of empanadas. The flavors are yummy with a good amount of filling. If the crust was just a little thinner...i.e. a little less bready, they would be the perfect empanada. Staff is nice and helpful. The cafe is clean and light.... a little on the smaller side with a few clusters of seating. There is outside seating.

    I thought this was a furniture store at first because It looks like it from outside. But we wanted a little snack & empanadas fit the bill. We got the ham and cheese, the bacon and cheese and pepperoni & cheese. The empanadas were okay. The drink you see is a mint ginger lemonade. It tasted like blended broccoli and lemons. I was sad because I was excited about it. The service was good, it was 2 staff on a seemingly slow day and they were really nice. They do have sandwiches and desserts that looked good but we didn't try. May be back after our massage next month & try something else.

    This is the second Chocolada that I know of with the original one being in Hollywood, FL. I was…read moreexcited to hear that they had opened one closer to my home. When I went, I was the only person there besides the owner and she was very nice and took the time to explain what some of the desserts were and she gave me a couple of samples of their goodies. They offer so many different cakes and pastries( eclairs, napoleons etc) and I have to say that the croissants here are absolutely delicious. Nice and flaky and with buttery layers. The affogato coffee was too dour for! I was told that they make custom cakes and pastries as well. It was spotlessly clean and there are plenty of tables to eat in if you choose to. Go support this local business, you won't be sorry that you did!

They offer everything from tiramisu, cheesecake & cookies all the way to ham/cheese croissants & more. There's also a good variety of hot coffee options such as lattes or macchiatos. They serve some iced coffee options as well. The ham & cheese croissant I had was delicious. The croissant was buttery & flaky. It had a good amount of ham & Swiss cheese filling. I would definitely recommend trying these if you've never had one. The tiramisu was also a great choice. It had a pudding-like texture that I really enjoyed. There was also plenty of coffee flavor throughout. The pricing is pretty fair depending on what you get. There's some items that seem a bit steeper than they should be but everything here is made well so I'm sure it's all good. This new location is not far from me so I'll be back soon to get another croissant & try some more things!

Based on the menu prices I knew it would be expensive but I figured it was worth the experience. The surprise was when I got the bill of $119 for a party of 3. They add 18% service fee & then ask for a tip too. I'm sorry but that 18% fee is ridiculous. Needless to say, we won't be going back.

    I like to first start this review by stating that even if you are a table of two they add a 18%…read moreservice charge to whatever you're eating no matter what. My Husband surprised me by taking me to this restaurant for brunch this past weekend. As you can tell, the store is very pink from the pictures, but it's more pink than you expect when you actually get there which is super cute you know very picture cute place. My Husband and I did sit inside. It's a little small. It's not the type of place that you would bring 10 people or more. It's not gonna be able to see all of you guys together anyway they also have outdoor seating. Now going back to the 18% service charge I get it. You know everyone at this place works together. We had our original server, but there was also someone who was collecting dirty dishes and then there was someone else delivering drinks and making sure your water cup was filled. The service was definitely good. They worked for it so we definitely did add another tip on top of the 18%. I just want the people who aren't expecting a party under six to have this 18% charge to be aware. I wasn't that hungry so I just stuck to an appetizer I got a yucca bite with chorizo on top. The chorizo was a little overcooked for me, but the yucca and the cilantro sauce was delicious. My Husband got a burger and I believe it had croquettes inside of it. It was a cute touch and the burger was well seasoned and made to order. I also had the vanilla pink latte. Super cute and delicious. Definitely checking back this place again when my girlfriends come into town I think they'd like it. Definitely recommend if you're in the area of Pembroke Mall or you wanna have a cute quick brunch with your girls.
