    Ham and queso, chorizo Mexicans, and apple pecan empanadas.

    Amazing little joint just a couple of blocks away from the beach. Large selection of empanadas from a variety of cultures. Small salad bar with a huge selection of toppings. They have beer on tap and in bottles, deserts and ice cream for days. The staff is super nice and friendly and the ambience is super chill. Highly recommend!

    We love trying new places and accidentally stumbled into this place. So glad we did. My husband loved his empanadas and I always love a beautiful salad. The red beans were seasoned great. The women behind the register were both welcoming and helpful in choosing our empanadas. The place is clean, neatly decorated and comfortable.

    That looks so yummy - and the empanadas do too lol -- for real delicious tho !

    Great salad ! First time here and it was great! Liked that it wasn't too busy and has a classy feel to it - modern decor- we preferred this place to a larger scale restaurant on an early Saturday afternoon- only negative is limited parking - we were good tho because it wasn't too busy ! Fresh desserts displayed when you walk in ! And they even have a smoothie bar!

    I had the perfect meal with 2 empanadas and soup. Phenomenal! Shrimp and cheese is flavor packed! The Peruvian chicken is outstanding with chimmichura sauce!! Best kept secret on Howard Street!! My friend recommended the Impossible!

    Gumbo Empanada, Chorizo Mexicana Empanada, Crab & Corn Bisque

    10/10 recommend! I had two empanadas and the crab and corn soup and they were delicious. You could tell that the crab was fresh, none of that imitation crab! The atmosphere was chill with relaxing music and a great outdoor seating area for when the weather is nice out. The cashier was super friendly and helpful.

    So many options for empanadas!

    Great location in downtown Biloxi for a quick lunch or coffee. Friendly service. My favorite is an oat milk latte with lavender. Also, a great meeting place!

    Hands down my favorite place in Gulfport. Epic food and epic service getting served here. Family…read moreowned and operated, Get some colombian coffee and an Arepa Burger for lunch and a meat sampler platter for dinner. (I've done this) And end the evening with a Lulazo. Ask for the breakfast menu if your early and want to eat lite.

    Sorry for the long review but this place deserves the time…read more This restaurant is in a blink and you will miss it location, which is a real shame. We received an enthusiastic greeting upon walking in the door which felt truly genuine, and not the forced feeling that usually accompanies the scripted entry greetings. They weren't busy so we were told to sit wherever suited us. Our server, Jairo was super friendly and eagerly answered any questions we had about both the food and the restaurant itself. I was interested in the panela lemonade, which I loved. It is a darker almost smokier version of lemonade made with brown sugar, which mellows out the acidity with more complex flavors. For an appetizer we had the empanada sampler which is now only 3 ground beef empanadas( my fault for not reading the description because it does clearly say it), it was explained to me that they used to be an actual sampler of flavors but that it is now just the ground beef. They are corn flour based empanadas. This gives the dough a slightly sweeter earthier taste which I personally preferred. They were perfectly filled and the sauces accompanying them were perfectly suited the them. For entrees we both ordered Picada platters. Usually when we go out we make sure not to order the same thing so we can try more things, but his time neither of us would budge. They come with grilled steak, chicken. cased chorizo, and rellena, fried pork belly, plantains, and yuca, served with roasted Colombian yellow potatoes and an arepa. DUDE! I'm glad I didn't give in and order something else. This was fantastic. The steak and chicken were perfectly seasoned and cooked. Sausages were all crispy. The only thing remotely negatively that was can come up with is that the fried foods did need a littl bit of salt. That being said I was more than happy with what was on the plate. I assure you the only reason everything didn't get smashed was I hadn't been awake long and it takes a bit to get my appetite, bit have no doubt I got the rest boxed. There is one key thing I want to say about something else that I ate here. Rellena, ie. Columbian black pudding/blood sausage. Just put it in your mouth, chew, and don't panic. It's amazing. I've had British black pudding and wasn't really a fan. This is different though. It has a much better texture to get off the bat. Crispy on the outside and a perfect density inside. The deep smokey seasonings elevate this to a piece of art. Just trust me on this one and don't descriminate against this sausage Find this little family owned restaurant and stuff your face, you won't regret it.

    Came in randomly, while walking down magazine. I was drawn in by the bread ofc lol!…read more We ordered an assortment of empanadas and a frozen margarita! Gumbo: Mehh I'd say it's so/so I was looking for more flavor, it was more salty than anything. Asian dumpling: It taste just like the real deal, Yellow curry: As soon as you bit into it you smelled the curry. This one had flavor too. There's street parking ofc! You're on magazine.. but the side street parking is free! So find that and you're in the money Overall yes! I'd come back.. I have to try more

    We live a few blocks away from this location and walk over once or twice a month to pick up…read moreempanadas. We've generally loved the food and service, but I'm worried that something has changed as we've been disappointed the last two times. 10 days ago we went with company in town, and my niece and I each got the caprese empanadas. Everyone else's order was fine but my caprese had green olives in it, which is not ever an ingredient in caprese anything and isn't listed under caprese in the empanola menu either. My niece's didn't have the olives, so I chalked this up to a random mistake and let it go. I did drop a quick note to the company on their "contact us" button just as an fyi for quality control, just in case it was a more regular mistake they should address, but I also said it wasn't a big deal, I just wanted to make them aware. Tonight we ordered 8 empanadas but only had 6 in the box when we got home. My husband drove back over quickly as they were about to close. I texted him while he was there replacing the other two missing empanadas, to let him know there were green olives yet again in the two caprese empanadas. The staff were very friendly and helpful and assured him that green olives are not in their recipe and asked for pictures, which I sent. They replaced my two caprese with the only one they had left, and threw in the next closest thing, which was spinach and artichoke, though I don't love that one personally. Anyway, the replacement caprese also has green olives in it now too, so I'm going to go make myself something else for dinner and now don't feel like ordering my caprese favorites anymore from there, as this is apparently an ongoing and regular mistake. I'm really bummed about this as the workers are very friendly and we've had lots of great experiences with this place that's so convenient and easy for us to walk to also. We love supporting all the great neighborhood businesses around here, of which Empanola has been high on our list for quite a while. I hope they get this sorted out, and I hope that there's a way I can know when the issue is fixed as I've now paid for three (and got two more free, for a total of 5) empanadas that were not actual caprese and I didn't like. It's most disappointing to my tastebuds, but it's now a risk I don't want to keep taking with my money either, as I'm paying for this continued disappointment. My husband will still continue to order with the kids when I'm not home, but we won't order as a family anymore for a while. I can't wait til this is hopefully cleared up again though so we can go back to loving this place!
