Been here twice from out of town and every item on the menu is delicious. The spicy steak and chicken empanadas are a most try.

Absolute fire. Their sauce is delicious. Empanadas are delicious. They even serve beer. Great service. Great place to watch the creatures of boulder walk by as you enjoy an authentic argentine meal on the patio. read more

I was really not impressed by this place. We were in the area and stopped by because of the great reviews. We ordered 2 empanadas, one steak and one chorizo and the overall flavor was just not great in our opinion. I actually liked the chorizo better then the steak and the hot sauces were not flavorful. This place obviously seems to be very liked but I didn't care for it. read more

Very good empanadas and interesting selections. Kind of a hole-in-the-wall. Got a variety and were very pleased. Gets busy. Would definitely go again next time I'm in Boulder. read more

This place is one I have yet to rate and I was between 3-4. I have decided 3.5, but rounded it down for the review (just know its higher) We have had a couple of the different items available on this menu: EMPANADAS: 1. Traditional: this is a basic empanada and it was nothing special, what makes it better is the chimichurri sauce, so don't forget to request it. 2. Gaucho: this is SWEET, which definitely hit me by surprise, wasn't a fan of the sweetness, and hated the raisins, since they are pre made you can NOT ask for something to be removed. 3. Criolla: this is the "spicy" ground beef, but totally not spicy, definitely better flavor and happy there are no raisins. 4. Pollo Barbacoa: this one is like a bbq pizza in an empanada, yes this is sweet, but I saw that coming. It is delicious! 5. Caprese: This is a nice veggie option, its extremely fresh, but be mindful this is NOT my favorite veggie option (look below) 6. Patagonia: I am NOT a veggie eater, but HOLY MOLY, is this my favorite empanada. I always have to get it and it is delicious. 7. Hongos: This is mainly mushroom and it's delicious. Fair warning though...if you let it sit, it becomes mushy and gross, so if you get it, eat it first! Sandwiches: 1. Milanesa de Carne: I love how thin the pieces of steak are, but depending on how its cooked it can be very chewy...not my favorite. 2. Tostado: expensive ham and cheese, not worth it. Salads: 1. Ensalada Mixta: this is another veggie option, and I love the lemon chimichurri dressing! WORTH IT! Desserts: 1. Flan: its a basic flan, nothing special. It was extremely cold when eating it right from the fridge, so I would suggest to leave it out for 10-15 mins before digging in. 2. Alfajor: These cookies are right at the register with a sprinkle of coconut looking things, these cookies are caramel based and it is delicious, but EXPENSIVE! Overall the reason for my review is because of food, taste, and price. Definitely on the pricey side, but if you are vegetarian, it has a ton of deliciousness. Try the chimichurri sauce and if you order 3 empanadas: you get a sauce for free, if not they are .25 cents per sauce cup. I always have to add an extra sauce because its never enough. read more

Soooo amazing. I couldn't be happier with these empanadas! Just like my friends from Argentina

Very fresh and filling! The spinach and steak empanadas were very flavorful.. the chimmicuri?? So good.The Mate was amazing, but I drank it too late in the evening. read more

Heaven! I really enjoyed the food and ambience. Amazing empanadas! Carme picante was my favorite. I'll be back. read more

Quite average. Not bad, but not anything you'd want to come up with as a pick on your own. A solid d 6 out of 10 m, assuming you have no better ideas. Stay away from the spinach empanada as it is literally a mouth full of spinach. Nothing else. Beer is nice. My best description: I'm not mad I went there, but it would never ever cross my mind to return. Solid C+ read more

Delicious! We stopped here for lunch and shared a sandwich and some empanadas. The prices are very reasonable and the portions are generous. It was easy to split a sandwich and 2 empanadas and walk away full. The service was great, the food came quickly, and the patio is even dog friendly. Highly recommend! read more

Excellent products, especially those from Argentine... Empanadas are to die for... and you can find all kind of goodies from Argentina . read more

Holy Molly if you want the best empandas in Colorado and best I've ever had this is the place. Must visit every time I go to Boulder. 3 is a big meal. But I can't tell which is my favorite. Be sure to try all 3 sauces because they are es stupid good. Chimichurri 10 of 10 (best chimi ever. savory with kick) Red hot sauce 8 of 10 (great on chicken tomato based would not say hot) Green avocado sauce 9 of 10 ( jalapeños with avocado yum) $4.15 each | $45.65 dozen #2 CARNE PICANTE 10 if 10 - spicy steak | onions | peppers | green olives | spices #4 CRIOLLA 9 of 10 - |spicy ground beef | caramelized onions | peppers | olives | spices) #6 POLLO PICANTE 10 of 10 - spicy chicken | onions | red bell pepper | spices read more

I was very excited to come and try this since I had never had Argentinian empanadas and was very disappointed in the end overall with the whole experience. A lady at the register immediately eyed me and my sister in a very judgmental way. It went beyond just not being friendly. Then we ended up waiting for 25 minutes and would've waited longer had we not gone up to ask and the lady looked annoyed that we went to ask. Five people behind us were already done eating. Our food was ready but for some reason the cook had just decided to set it aside and when he handed it to the server they all just... laughed. Told my sister to go sit and that they would bring it out, making us wait yet again, no apologies for their mistake, if it was a mistake. Then the food was very blah to be honest. Oily bread with a tiny bit of meat. The empanadas were bland. I do not recommend this place. Zero stars. read more

Amazingly delicious and absolutely authentic! We tried seven kinds of empanada and had zero duds. They fold each flavor of empanada differently and give you a cheat sheet, so you never have to tear one open to see what's inside. They have direct online ordering and to your car delivery, which was super easy and covid-19 safe. read more

I was here last week after two friends and colleagues invited me. I came back today! I really liked their empanadas, especially the "traditional" one, which reminds me Chilean empanadas. Not quite the same flavor or size, but quite satisfying. Three empanadas are very filling, or two and one salad. The ambience of this place is also very nice. To be an almost corner restaurant, it feels very spacious, and their roadside terrace is lovely! Another plus is the Latin music they play! I really recommend this place for a nice bite of food and relaxing or socializing! read more

Rincon Argentino - Argentine Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

My favorite place to eat when I visit Boulder hands down! You stand in line to order and you can get it to-go or eat there. There's even options to have it pre-baked or not cooked at all so you can enjoy it later. The max I can eat is about 3, and that's plenty. It doesn't matter what you order, the empanadas do not disappoint, my personal favorite is the one with corn. I've also tried the Patagonia, the spinach one, and the bbq chicken as well. The terere drink is sooo delicious. read more

If I could give this place a 10/5, I would. We ordered the steak and ham sandwich, several of their empanadas, and a couple of their desserts. All of the food items we ordered were delicious, fresh, and packed with flavor. We will have to try the rest of their empanadas. The customer service was also exceptional. read more

Pro tip: Order 3 per person online 30 minutes before you want to pick it up, then walk in and grab it from the shelf on the back right. We tried 6 different flavors and unanimously decided Gaucho was the most delicious. read more

Rincon Argentino - I appreciate that they fold them all differently and include a guide so it's easy to tell which flavor is which - Argentine Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

I love this place. It has so much of its own personality and style and food. You can't go wrong with anything you order here! It's all made fresh and does a great job bringing Argentinian food to America read more

Love their empanadas. Honestly, the best in Boulder County. Also, try their alfajores. I swear at 90% of places they always come out dry, but these are the best I've had. Only downside is the price. $5+ for an empanada is steep, particularly when I need three of them to fill me up. But! You can't knock the place on flavor. read more

First Argentinian empanadas I've had since moving to Colorado. I was skeptical because I've lived in Florida and have had some amazing empanadas. I ordered their traditional ones with 1 chimichurri sauce and 1 green sauce. First of all, great job Rincón! The empanadas were very tasty. Second of all, OMG TO THAT GREEN SAUCE! I should've ordered two of those. The chimi was not bad, just should be eaten with a steak, not an empanada lol. Either way, please, please order the green sauce... thank me later! Sorry I did not take a picture, it was gone way before I even remembered to post a review lol. read more

Delicious food and friendly service! My only regret was not buying more alfajores. I am still dreaming of them.

So good. We don't live in Colorado but we make sure to stop by when we fly in. Get the spicy beef and the cheese empanada. The chimichurri is a must too. Chocolate cookie was just ok, but glad I tried it. Great place to stop for a beer and snack after hiking the local mountains. read more

This place a really liked, the food was pretty good, with a lot of vegetarian options and good flavor, the mushroom one needs something besides mushrooms in it, other than that, I highly recommend. read more

Amazing empanadas and friendly staff! Very authentic. Half the restaurant was speaking Spanish and I felt like I was in Buenos Aires. I wish I could have tried the alfajores. This place is doing it right! read more

Perfect, flakey crust empanadas!! I enjoyed my traditional beef empanada more than the chicken one, but I'd recommend both since they are made fresh. read more

We loved the empanadas so much we came back two days later to have them again. Friendly service, fresh ingredients, cooked to order. Also have some in their freezer section to take home for another time. Luckily we live close enough to walk there. read more

The empanadas here are insanely good, and even beautiful to look at; each variety has a unique shape. There are something like 5 or 6 vegetarian empanada options too. All are delicious but my personal preference is certainly the hongo empanada--terrific, earthy mushroom flavor--with the hot salsa. Three empanadas makes a pretty hearty meal...be careful about going back for seconds because there's definitely a bit of a time lag between when you eat empanadas and when you start to feel full. Service is super friendly and your food comes out quite quickly. There is plenty of patio seating; be advised that it faces west and can get lots of direct sunlight; plus some busy streets are close by so while you're on the patio you may have to shout to your fellow diners, a la "WOW THESE EMPANADAS ARE GOOD, AND ALSO I THINK I'M GETTING A SUNBURN." All around fantastic. read more

Rincon Argentino - A big ol' pile of vegetarian empanadas. Delicious. - Argentine Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

I absolutely love finding places with this much culture! My sister brought me here one day after a long outing in the mountains and I am soooo happy I agreed to her recommendation! We ordered a round of empanadas (duh) because that's the main staple here. The owner hails straight from Buenos Aires so you know the empanadas are authentic! It was obvious that they put a lot of love a pride into making their food because the empanadas were both delicious and beautiful. They are flakey and crisped to perfection on the outside and the filling is to DIE for. They have so many options it's unreal! There are various choices for meat eaters and vegetarians alike! I would recommend getting two to three empanadas depending on your hunger, they are close to the size of street tacos. I ordered the Pollo picante and the Hongos and my mouth was STILL watering with hopes of more to come after I finished them. They offer three different choices of sauce to go with the empanadas as well. I am a huge ambience person when it comes to eating out and this place made me feel happy and cared for... Like they invited me into their own home! We found street parking on a busy Saturday, and noticed a parking lot near by that might be a little easier to navigate on a weekday. There was plenty of seating inside and out! Don't forget to try a desert afterwards! How often do you get to try sweets from Argentina anyways? read more

Such mixed feelings, this place was so good years ago. Went back today super excited to eat at "that place in Boulder " that I fondly remember and it was disappointing, the prices seem to have doubled. The chimchiri seemed like mostly oil. I'm glad this place has been so successful but it's definitely not the same as it was 5 years ago read more

Wow wow wow best empanadas in Colorado. Scrumptious, mouth watering sensations taking over my body. Do you want this feeling? Then get the Jamon y queso empanada with the asada red sauce. read more

Rincon Argentino - Lomito Sandwich - Argentine Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

Okay, don't be scared off by the prices. This place is legit. Their empanadas are BURSTING with flavor. I got the mushroom one and it was to die for. My husband and I tried several others and all were awesome. The filling is all delicious and the dough is perfect and the right mix of chewy and flaky. There is a perfect ratio between the filling and the dough. It is slightly squishy inside, but we were able to get a table within minutes. If I am ever in the area again, I will 100% eat here again. read more

The food I have tried so far is absolutely delicious. The empanadas (carne picante, gaucho and criollo) and alfajore were amazing and tasted very authentic (having grown up with an Argentinian mother). Can't wait to go back and try more. read more

Wow, really delicious tortas and empanadas here. I'm more a fan of the torta, and my wife the empanada, but both tasted so fresh and delicious. The chicken torta was a good size and fill with juicy piece of chicken, fresh vegetables, and chimichurri between crusty bread. Everything about it was great. My wife got a couple empanadas, and they were flavorful with a flaky outside crust. We were both surprised how much enjoyed the food here! The only bad thing is the limited seating ... wish there was more! read more

We are frequenters of Maria empamada in Denver and it were blown away by the deliciousness of this place! Fresh, created and bursting with flavor! I can't wait to return read more

crispy, flaky crust with creative and delicious fillings. We ordered the ham and cheese, spicy steak, corn, and Patagonia flavors, and all were good though we agreed the corn was our favorite. We ended up buying 12 frozen emps (6 mixed meat, 6 mixed veg) for home because they were so good in store! Only wish is that frozen emp flavors were customizable. read more
