Argentinian beef was my favorite but all the flavors (pork belly, Philly cheesesteak, and chicken pot pie) were delicious! I will most definitely be back, and probably soon! The person at the counter was very friendly. There isn't any place to sit and eat but that's okay. The service was real fast.

I waited about 10 minutes after placing my order at a kiosk. A few people came in and picked up their orders during that time. My spinach and feta empanada was good. The crust was flaky, although it was not full (top was air). I picked a chimichurri sauce, although there is a poster in store that has sauce/empanada suggestions. The buffalo cauliflower (small) was a very generous portion and a little spicy for me (though not unbearable). I think I would choose another sauce instead of buffalo and I would come back for the cauliflower.

Cool little place to get empanadas. 5411 Empanadas is one of the overlooked businesses in Evanston…read morebecause it's easy to walk by it. It's got empanadas of course as well as sides. Flavors are pretty interesting and not all the traditional typical ones, because some of these are crazy. There's ones with meats and others with vegetables, so it has a variety of these. Basic looking place where you order at the counter. It's pretty much for takeout but you can still eat inside. There's a counter along the window. It's about $4 for a latte. The coffee is okay but it's not their main thing. Empanadas are a pretty good size and are filling. We each got the Impossible Empanadas, and were pleased. All vegan empanadas. These were filled with green olives, Impossible meat, potatoes, sautéed onions, and scallions. Get some of these to go. It also does catering if you would like empanadas for your party. There's a few that are good for vegans and vegetarians.

These are some of THE BEST empanadas I've ever had!!! It's pretty hidden and pickup only. Total hidden gem vibes! My husband and I ordered a whole bunch! Hubby got 2 picadillo, 1 chicken pot pie, 1 Philly, 1 Argentinian chicken, I got 2 Argentinian beef, 1 chicken pot pie, 1 Philly, and 1 spinach and feta - we split the Brie bacon and cheese special one. We couldn't finish them all (so excited for leftovers tomorrow), but my husband loved his and I was literally dancing after every bite. The flaaaavors!!! My goodness they just pop! The Argentinian beef brought me so much comfort. My mother in law is from Argentina so I was curious how these would be! Every single bite was packed with flavor! The chicken pot pie was literal comfort food!!! A handheld pot pie? Yes PLEASE! They nailed these flavors! The spinach and feta was ridiculously delicious and the Brie bacon fig was the best combo of sweet and savory. There's just some restaurants out there where you wish you could give more than 5 stars, this is one of them. Their menu has many other things such as bowls, wings, and desserts....I can't wait to try more. To top all this off, you get your food so fast, and Nice employees! Now, stop wasting your time reading more reviews and go get you some of the best food ever!!! You'll be doing yourself a disservice if you don't eat here.

I tried all of the empanadas, perhaps my favorites are the Argentinian beef, chicken curry, and Somosa - but all are yummy. The sauces are also tasty, I usually have left over to use them with something else during the week. I like the Avocado Lime Cilantro, Spicy Chimichurri, and Sriracha Aioli. This time we also had the Blackberry Hoisin Ginger which is amazing. I would not have it with empanadas, bit my friend said it was great pairing for the Mac & Cheese one. I had it with my croissant the next morning.

I ended up with a couple veggie options - the one with multiple veggies and the provolone one. Both were SO GOOD. The cheese one was VERY cheesy. Definitely worth a try.
