Customers consistently praise Anita Empanadas for its warm, welcoming ambience and friendly, multilingual staff, with many highlighting generous fillings and a dough that stays delicious whether fried or baked. The menu is loved for its authentic Argentinian flavors, from beef empanadas to humita, spinach, and cheeseburger varieties, plus milanesa sandwiches and notable desserts like alfajores, all offered at very reasonable prices. Takeout and dine-in experiences are described as convenient and satisfying, portions are generous, and the accompanying chimichurri and salsa elevate the meals. The kitchen shows versatility with vegan and dietary accommodations and careful attention to freshness. Some notes mention occasional service hiccups such as online order cancellations, but overall the feedback emphasizes great value, easy to enjoy with friends or family, and a memorable, nostalgic vibe that makes the spot a favorite on the south shore and in the area. Beef empanadas are repeatedly singled out as a top pick.
Je suis allée la semaine dernière & j'étais servi par un jeune homme vraiment calme, gentil & sympathique, un service A1.
J'ai commandé une Milanaise c'était copieux, j'ai 2 gros morceaux de viande avec une salade. Un churro chaud & fondant. Malheureusement j'ai commandé 6 empanadas & elles étaient vraiment minuscules. Sérieusement pour les empanadas je trouve qu'ils devaient les faire un peu plus grosses (une grandeur normale d'empanada)
Pour une première visite ce fut parfait. Excellent accueil, prix tout à fait corrects & la bouffe est excellente. Je vais y retourner en chercher encore.

A little disappointed in the service, I ordered through the website; paid & confirmed. 10 minutes later, I receive a text message that the restaurant cancelled my order. I called & asked why, & the employee said'we cancelled your order because there was no more chicken'… okay? So why didn't you just call me to ask if I wanted to swap for another item. The employee also said he would call me back 5 minutes later & never did. Overall, the empanadas are fantastic, but customer service is a 1 star for me.
Whether you are looking to get a taste of some Argentinian cuisine, or you're an Argentinian wanting to share some good food with your friends (like me), you will love this place. The empanadas had a lot of filling, & both the fried & oven-cooked ones had an amazing dough.
The milanesa sándwich was a hit too. Finally, please please try the alfajores!
The decor was super nostalgic also
Me & my friend got there by pure coincidence & it was amazing. The food was very good & filling. The ambience was very cozy & oft with good decor. The staff was very friendly & nice. They brought our food to the table & we had a nice conversation too.
OMG !!!!! Les meilleurs empanadas toute culture confondus....à essayer absolument. N'oubliez pas la petite sauce a côté. Ça goute le ciel. C'est définitivement ma decouverte culibaire de l'année 🤤🤯🤤🤯🤤🤯
Nouveau spot préféré !!! Ca fait maintenant quelques fois qu'on commande de là (d'avance) & la bouffe est toujours prête à temps, chaude & délicieuse ! Les empanadas humita & au cheeseburger sont nos préférés. Je recommande vraiment d'aller essayer ce resto.
I usually order churros at another place but because of the time the other place was closed, so I decided to go with this one.
Ordered thru uber eats & the first appearance , presentation needs some work (generic box & bag). But didn't remove any stars since to me what really matters is the food.
Now, the churros was slightly cheaper than the other place but its also smaller & has way less dolce de leche filling on the inside. In fact, once you get to the middle it's almost only pastry.
The empanadas were good. Nothing bad to say about them but also didn't wow me.
