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.

It's tucked in an industrial park area, but there's plenty of parking and the service is just as warm and welcoming as their other location in Morton Grove! There's even a picnic table outside for anyone wanting to enjoy their hot empanadas right then and there. They offer a well priced lunch special that's $16 for 2 empanadas, 2 sauces, a side, and a drink! It's a great deal! I got several empanadas - Butter chicken which tastes just a delicious plate of homemade butter chicken wrapped in a flaky baked crust. It's not spicy, but spiced well for all the flavors! Philly Cheesesteak our family favorite. Cheesesteak in an easy to hold flaky crust. I kinda wish there was a little more cheese, but they don't skimp on the meat! Chicken pot pie, another tasty empanada. They top it with a sprinkle of fresh rosemary which isn't quite a favorite for our family, but it's pretty easy to remove most of it. It has all the fixings and flavorings of a warm, comforting pot pie! Mac and cheese - who would have imagined it could be an empanada, but it is and it's tasty. My son loves this because he really loves Mac n cheese and loves the empanada crusts. I got the elote as a side which is buttery and salty, a good side to accompany the meal. Fresh corn that crunched which made us happy. I also got the longonisa fried rice! If you never had longinisa, it's a must try. Imagine it to be similar to Chinese sausage, but less cured and just delicately seasoned. Everything about this fried rice made me wish I had more. I'll be returning to pick up some frozen take and bake so we will have them handy whenever the craving hits.

I had the Argentina beef empanada and also the Ube horchata. The empanada is wildly delicious. Very flavorful. The crust is fluffy and crispy at the same time. The beef itself is seasoned and cooked perfectly. I had it with chimichurri sauce and it went well with it. The Ube horchata was meh for me. I wanted to try it though and I'm glad I did. Just isn't for me. I'll save room for more empanadas next time.
