When we came in, we were greeted right away. The inside is small, but spacious enough to easily view the menu on the back walls and look at all the baked goods without being too close to other people. Everything looked great. I would love to try all their cakes, they look so good and fresh. The breads are definitely awesome and fresh too, it was coming out from the back when we were there, and you can see some condensation on the display letting you know they are hot and fresh. It took a few minutes of scanning the menu, and looking at the desserts, before we were ready and chose to order. We ended up getting a steak sandwich and the two empanada plate. For the empanadas, we tried the beef and the chicken. The empanadas are not that great. The beef one was ok, but the chicken was not worth trying again. The star of the plate was the french fries. Those were awesome and cooked very well. The steak sandwich was very good. It was loaded with steak. The steak pieces were tender. Everything about the sandwich was good. The bread was the same one they sold in the display. The lettuce and tomatoes, fresh. The avocado that costed $3 extra, loads, probably a whole small avocado. This sandwich is definitely worth coming back for. Overall, I say try it. Or at least, try the steak sandwich with some fries. read more

Encontré mi hogar chileno en California. Compramos demasiada comida, pero no pudimos parar de decir, "Y uno de esos." El pan es el mejor. Pedimos completos italianos, ases completos, papas fritas, cachitos, hallullas, amasados y alfajores. A pedir otras comidas la próxima vez. read more

Indeed 3.7! I would like to try more typical meals, but the people working there were really busy to explain. However, the waitress was very nice. We asked the empanadas that were deliciously, and chip and fish, very tasty. The ambiance is nice and casual. I my husband and I want to try another dish without meat. Price is reasonable, and dish is huge. read more

Chilenazo is located in a strip mall. It was a nice little spot with table service where I eyeballed the options in the glass counter and got tempted by their sweets. I opted for two empanadas ($4 each; quantity discount for take-out only) - the spinach, and the shrimp & cheese - and their Mil Hojas (puff pastry with dulce de leche and vanilla cream. Served warm, both empanadas were quite good! Despite being filled with dulce de leche, we found the mil hojas sweet to be not too sweet and quite yummy! read more

Chilenazo - Steak sandwich - Latin American Near Me - Canoga Park, California

Stepping into Chilenazo reminded me a lot of living in Valpo. I wanted to share some warm, flaky, buttery pockets of goodness with my coworkers, and grabbed an extra just for me! The empanadas are authentic and they have a lot of other Chilean favorites like the round Chilean breads with palta and also offer desserts that look exactly like what you would pick up at a pasteleria in Chile. The cafe is cute, clean, and mellow i'm so glad this place exists so I can satisfy my cravings for Chilean style empanadas and treats!! ¡Que rico! read more

Came here for the Empanadas. Parking can be hit or miss. Located in a small plaza with a lot of businesses. Best advice is get here early. I ordered the Beef and Chicken Empanadas. The outer crust was incredible. Just like my aunt makes em. The meat on both was fresh and absolutely delicious. The size of each empanada was very filling. They give you two different types of sauces. I like em plain. The dining area is pretty good sized. I ordered them to go. But will absolutely dine here in the future. They have digital menus and flat screen TV's that were playing soccer games. The wall decor will full of Chilean photos. I'd highly recommend them. The last thing is the place was very clean and sterile and service was great. read more

first time here; ordered the combo of two empanadas (chicken and shrimp) with fries. I personally love the shrimp one and the jalapeno sauce!! Paid $12+tax, decent price and the fill is great. I would recommend to order ahead of time though, place isn't for someone whose in a rush it'll take 10-15 minutes depending on the amount you order / from my experience (-_-) read more

This is hands down my favorite spot in LA for authentic Chilean food. Every time I come here, it feels like a little piece of home. The atmosphere is so warm and inviting, with Chilean TV playing in the background--it always brings a smile to my face. The food is incredible. I can't get enough of the pastel de choclo, the empanadas de pino, and their pan amasado--everything tastes homemade and full of flavor. Honestly, I come here every chance I get because the food is just that good. Plus, the prices are very reasonable, which makes it even better! What makes this place even more special is the people. The staff is so friendly and welcoming, they make you feel like family. On my birthday, the owner surprised me with a cake and sang "Cumpleaños Feliz" to me--it was such a sweet and unforgettable moment. Oh, and I have to mention the parking--it's free, which is a big deal in LA and just one more reason this place is so great. If you're craving real Chilean food or just want a cozy place to enjoy a great meal, you have to check this place out. I promise, you won't regret it! read more

My coworkers and I wanted to give this place a try for lunch, but maybe ordered the wrong plate. This is supposed to be a Lomo Saltado but it's more like a "Salty Lomo". Not a great experience- at least this dish did not hit. We were all hungry at the end and couldn't finish our food due to all the sodium taking over :( Wouldn't recommend this dish! read more

I love empanadas so decided to try 2 at this Chilean restaurants. They have baked ones with beef, chicken, seafood or spinach. The fried ones have cheese with ham, jalapeños, mushroom or shrimp. I bought a chicken one (has onions) and a beef one (has olives and egg) which had a good baked crust and savory. They also have a case full of pastries but I did not try any. Similar to other businesses in this shopping center, I recommend avoiding eating in during peak hours as there is limited parking. read more

A cozy and lowkey spot perfect for a mellow outing or a tranquil date. Today was our second time in and we ordered bistec a lo pobre and the pescado frito. Both were delicious! In addition to the amazing food there's also a great selection of home made pastries for dessert or to take home. Servers were attentive and accommodating. Will be coming back! If you are thinking about it; do yourself a favor and check this place out! :) read more

I've been coming here for seven or eight years now. I walk in today and they don't have any of the empanadas that I always buy. The store is rearranged and there's a new guy working there that doesn't speak English very well. I ordered cheese empanadas because they didn't have any cheese and shrimp empanadas and the guy gave me beef empanadas, and then argued with me that I ordered beef when I didn't. They tried to charge me for the extra salsa and they only gave me a tiny bit. The floor arrangements been redone. I think it's under a new management. Basically, I ended up with two cold cheese empanadas and only ate one of them and left. This place sucks. I suggest avoiding this place for a while until they work out the kinks. read more

Amazing food! Came here because I have a cold and was fed like a queen. I will definitely come again. The big plus is that they have a super clean bathroom which is so important to me. The service was great and the ambiance was lovely. This is my new go to place. read more

Chilenazo - Chicken Cazuela - Latin American Near Me - Canoga Park, California

Little spot with Chilean food. I was getting food to go and I loved the delicious smells inside when waiting for my food. Seems like they definitely specialize in Empanadas so it's a must have for me to try next time. I ordered the fish and chips to go. They were a little softer than I normally like my white fish and not as crunchy as I'd like but still very good. Comes with a red sauce and green sauce which was different than your traditional tartar sauce. They have daily specials and make their own fresh juices as well. They also make some cakes and have baked goods. Multiple options to do here! read more

Finally tried them and omg i can't wait sit to go back!!! Their empanadas taste just like my grandmas minus the raisins, but they're still really good!. The pastel de choclo was good! But personally I'd prefer it without the basil cus that's how my grandma makes it. Their ají verde and ají pebre is bomb! I want to try their churrasco and humitas next time. read more

I bet most people haven't heard of Chilean food, but in fact, they need to try it! You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu, it's comfort food, and here it tastes like grandma made it. I love the EMPANADAS, any of the SANDWICHES, and when it's cold, I go for a hearty SOUP. Also, the handmade BREADS and "pebre" (the Chilean equivalent of chimichurri) are delicious. The service and ambiance are excellent. We love Chilenazo! read more

This review is purely about the empanadas. Was craving them for too long and forgot I've been wanting to check this place out. Luckily, the two objects of desire converged while running an errand in the area. Got six empanadas - chicken (2), beef, ham-and-cheese (2), and one spinach. It wasn't my first time enjoying Chilean empanadas, but I feel like this was the first set of pastries that emphasized the egg in the filling. A nice touch. And so was that green salsa. Think the chicken and spinach ones were my favorites, but they were all tasty. And the leftovers reheated well in my airfryer oven. Might not wait to have the excuse of a nearby errand to grab more Chilenazo in the future. Their entrees looked quite attractive. read more

Pleasantly surprised by this place! Yum. Think we found our new fave empanadas spot. I ordered two shrimp & cheese, one jalapeno & cheese and one chicken. All very good. My fave was the shrimp. The jalapeno one didn't have a lot of heat, but it was still solid. I began eating before I can post so all if have is the last bite of the chicken, but notice the filling. They give you a lot. Will absolutely be returning the next time I'm in the area. read more

Chilenazo - Half eaten Chicken Empanada - yum and full of filling - Latin American Near Me - Canoga Park, California

Chilean food anyone? I was coming back to Chilenazo after a while so that I could savor its food and review the restaurant. It is a small place in a strip mall on Canoga Avenue in Canoga Park, with friendly and excellent service. My plan was to only have empanadas. I ordered the shrimp with cheese and the beef empanadas. Both were superb. I had to wait for both empanadas and they came out piping hot. Seems they were flash baked because the crusts were crisp. One could taste the shrimp in the empanada and its flavor was not overwhelmed by the cheese. The beef empanada had a very mild flavor and also contained raisins and hard-boiled egg parts. What I liked most was that both the empanada dough coverings had different colors, different finger and mouth feel, different texture and different taste. Salsa Verde was my favorite salsa. It had tones of cilantro, garlic and Serano chilies. There is a reason why I go into a restaurant and only order appetizers and leave. This is especially true when there are other items on the menu that catch my eye (here it was Chilean pies, tamale, chicken, beef and fish dishes). This gives me the opportunity and the excuse to come back soon. That is my wish for Chilenazo. read more

LATE POST: I stopped by Oi Asian Fusion and noticed this place. Went in and ordered a gigantic sized flaky pastry (not sure what's the name ) and one of each beef and chicken empanadas. THEY WERE ALL SOOOOO DELICIOUS!! Prices were average, portions were decent, service was good! Place was clean. Parking could be difficult sometimes. Not much displayed behind the glass counter. But I don't mind that.. they prep the empanadas per order so they weren't just sitting there. To me, that's better! Definitely going back for more! read more
