Reviews for The Empanada Joint in Missoula, MT
Awesome Empanadas! Fast friendly service. Had the grass fed beef and Chorizo empanadas with sweet potato fries.
Love the empanadas here. Need 2 to make a meal, which gives you a reason to try more than one. I got the chicken (from a... recommendation from the woman behind the counter) and a pork sausage empanada -- both were full of flavor and spicier than Iexpected. Pastry crust was perfectly done -- I'm more familiar with the Chilean version, but these were at least as good! Read more
Very friendly atmosphere. The empanadas were excellent - tasty and surprisingly good mixes. Definitely a place for a good and... filling lunch. Read more
This place is wonderful - the owners are so friendly and accommodating. Two empanadas might not feel like enough food, but if... you eat a little slow you will get full! Beet and goat cheese is my personal favorite. Don't skip out on the yummy dessertoptions! Read more
Picked up empanadas on my way home from work. The place was empty and service friendly and fast. Empanadas were already made... with a nice selection. We tried pork, chicken and chorizo. All were very good and heated up well in the oven Read more
Definitely worth a visit. We were only in town for a couple days and we noticed this charming restaurant, with gluten free... options. My husband spent some time in Argentina, and the flavors brought him right back there. I ordered the gluten free beetand goat cheese empanada and the sweet potato fries. Just such a great flavor combination! This is comfort food. The staff wasalso great. If we lived in Missoula, I?m sure we would make this place a regular stop. Read more
The empanada joint is definitely a special place in Missoula. Very delicious empanadas, plus the folks that work there seem to... have a great attitude and are committed to keeping a good and clean restaurant. It's not too pricey and if you don't like theprice tag, just know that what you pay for here is certainly worth it. Latin- and south- american fare is hard to come by inMissoula, but these folks nail it. I tried 4 different flavors of empanada, and they all were delicious. The empanadas arebaked, not fried, so you don't feel like you consumed a bunch of oil after eating them. Also tried the sweet potato fries, whichwere cooked to perfection. They also have gluten free and vegan options. I would argue that the empanada joint is one of thebest places to eat in Missoula. I will definitely come back for more. Read more
Had a great experience with friendly, relaxed staff. Gave great recommendations and the Empanada's themselves were extremely... well seasoned and delicious. Will revisit another time to see how their frozen takeout Empanada's hold up. Read more
