Launched in August 2020 as a popup, selling Empanadas & Chimichurri at local breweries that needed to provide food to its patrons in order to operate during the Pandemic. Our Empanadas and Chimichurri were a massive hit, and in just a little over a year we were able to open our first brick & mortar in Monrovia, CA to keep up with demand. Staying true to our roots from Córdoba, Argentina, we offer a wide variety of authentic Argentine Empanadas, Chimichurri, Sandwiches and Specialty Plates such as Tri-tip, Porchetta, Choripan, Milanesa, Beef Stroganoff and Chili Verde!
