Theyre not closed!! Customer service was great and empanadas were even better, I thought I got the wrong flavor so they replaced it for me (I was wrong about the wrong flavor) but they were all very good

My favorite place to order true Argentinian empanadas! Every time the family visits, we order empanadas here, and they are surprised to taste them as they do back home. Their favorites are meat empanadas and ham and cheese. We also ordered the Beyond burger and the vegetable empanadas (since we are vegan), and they were delicious. The service is excellent as well. I highly recommend ordering here if you want true Argentinian empanadas.

Delicious empanadas! Service is fast and friendly. No frills, just a window where you pick up your order from. My favorite sweet empanada is the apple. There is metered street parking in the front or residential street parking on the side streets.

This is a tiny place with a screen out front for ordering. It can be kind of hard to see the screen depending on where the sun is. Service is fairly quick, since they just pull your order. We ordered 6 empanadas and the caprese salad. - beef: I liked the flavor, husband didn't care for it. very beef heavy. - mozzarella tomato basil: too wet, lacked flavor. - spinach cheese and egg: I loved the flavors and texture of this one - ham and cheese: nothing special about it but tasty - egg and sausage: solid choice - corn: we both loved this one, and wish we had gotten more - caprese salad: very simple but delicious

These were solid. I got the chicken empanada and the spicy steak empanada, with a side of chimichurri. The spice wasn't overpowering and the chicken one reminded me of good curry chicken. I would definitely try this place again. Prices: $4.50 each $11 for 3 $43 for a dozen (12) $6 each for gluten-free $68 for a dozen (12) gluten-free

I've driven past The Empanada Factory several times on my way to the car wash and decided to actually stop this time to check it out. I like that these empanadas are baked instead of fried. I do wish they were a little browner but otherwise the filling and crust were each delicious. I particularly enjoyed the beed empanada and its spicy flavors. The garbanzo salad was also surprisingly good, fresh, and made me feel healthy. Service was fast and easy. You place your order on a screen and either tap or insert your card to pay. Would definitely stop by again to try other empanadas or a sandwich and sides!

Solid empanada spot in Culver City. They have a few benches in the front, but otherwise it's only for takeout. They have tons of empanada filling flavors so there's options for everyone. My personal favorites are the spicy chicken, lamb, and spinach cheese. All well seasoned.
