Rincon Argentino

I’ve been coming here for years! This place is absolutely amazing! The people there are so nice every time I walk in and they greet me with such warmth. The empanadas de pollo are the best! The meat there is also very good quality. A nice mom and pop shop to make you feel like you’re in Argentina.

BEST EMPANADAS EVER!
I have been coming to this shop for many years for all of their great food especially the empanadas (every flavor) & tortas de milanesa so good!
Family oriented business which is great they have lots of unique drinks and products from other latin countries.
i highly recommend this place!

I was in the area and need to get something to eat quickly since I am diabetic. My sugar was low, Ugh! I seen this small shop and since I like trying out different foods I took a chance. There was a constant flow of customers. They have some really good imported food and wine. They had home made empanadas. I had the cheese and corn and the spinach and cheese. Super cheap $ 1.50 each. Small but good. They had my fave soda Inca Cola. Had to have a can. I would recommend this place for some quick food on the go or to take home some sweet goodness. I also had a home made cookie with the caramel cener. Oh yes petfect. There is some parking in the back or on the street …

Great empanadas and great market… the workers are very helpful.

I wouldn’t categorize this place in «Restaurants»! I ended up hear under the false search results for «Restaurants 1 block away».
Yes they sell already prepared warm (not hot) empanadas, but there is not even a bar shelf or stool to be able to eat inside or outside.
Think gas station shop: There is so much going on in the store: butcher fridge, bakery display, grocery shelves, empanada carousel warming station.
The only reason I came here was because I had 1hr to kill while waiting for an appointment a block away and wanted to sit down to eat something nearby. There were tons of options but empanadas sounded like a good option at the time.
I had the Beef and the Spinach empanadas, quite bland, and dry, and just warm, they were cold by the time I had the last 2 bites of each. I gave this review 2 stars just for pricing.
$ 1.40ea. Sad it falls under «you get what you pay for».
I’ve had other Argentinian empanadas in Glendale, which are more memorable and recommendable, best ones are not in Glendale FYI.
Also don’t expect customer service with a smile, I don’t know if she was just having a bad day, but it’s very off-​putting especially if it’s your first time. Another customer walked in after she rung me up, he was in a very happy joking mood, she was in poker face mode, to a point she would have preferred him to leave instead of making a purchase.
I’ll take my money and taste buds elsewhere on my next appointment.

You cannot get a cheaper better lunch than $ 1.50 empanadas. Queso and choclo were the best. Spinach was good, but weakest of the three.
They get pastries and things from Casino Bakery in Culver. Legit.
No parking issues, friendly service, futbol playing on tv. Plenty of meat and sweets and mate for when you need it!

Went here for the empanadas and was surprised by a dulce de leche dessert deliciousness thing. The empanadas are really cheap at $ 1.20 each, but don’t be fooled! They’re really good. I was satisfied after having 3 but could have gone for 4. There isn’t anywhere to sit but it’s California and you should walk around outside when you have the chance to not sit in traffic.

Call in your order for fresh empanadas and or pizza. Homemade chimichuri is recommended. Also you gotta grab some alfahor or something with dulce de Leche

Love that there’s an Argentina market! My family is from Uruguay so it’s nice to have some stuff from home. The empandas are amazing here! All of them! I’ve also had their sandwiches and it’s a big size for a reasonable price! Love their sandwiches de miga. Their meats are also very note worthy !

Speaking as an Argentinian this is one of the best places in LA about Argentinian food.
Everything is truly Argentinian even the decoration and the way they have all distributed in the shop, is a typical market from Buenos Aires.
In the moment I got t there I knew that it was like home you open the door and is like being in Argentina.
Let’s begging with the meat i’m speechless the asado de tira is very tasty and very fresh. Chroizos are delicious too perfect combination if you buy the breath they do you’ll get amazing choripanes.
Empanadas are typical empandas from rotiserias in Argentina incredible good and full of flavor!
All the pastries are amazingly well done without loose the Argentinian touch.
Pizzas too!
And the products, Yerba, Oregano, Dulce De Leche even the sparkly water you thought you never will find its here not to mention the beer they have the Argentinian national beer Quilmes!
Costumer service is good and very nice too.
5 stars!
All this place is a bite from home!
I will definitely come back.

Empanadas were pretty good. Of corse nothing like my grandma makes but definitely up there.

I love them! They know their meat and all the treats. Great service and very friendly staff.

Pretty cool market. My mom likes Argentinian food so we came here to try the empanadas. They were pretty good, I don’t really like empanadas but they were good. They also have Argentinian beer!!! Which is my favorite. I bought a six pack of quilmes.
If you’re Argentinian or just like Argentinian food I would recommend checking this place out!
It’s pretty small but they have a variety of stuff !

I’ve been coming here since I can remember (1^st grade!?). The spinach empanadas and the pizza are amazing, seriously my 2 favorites. Highly recommend this place for your South American touch. Chimpum Callao!

Las empanadas estan buenisimas!!! La masa es unica!!! Un lugar pequeño pero encontrara todo lo delicioso q un argentino quiere. Los chorizos y la carne es super recomedable, muy buen sabor y tierna.

I only came here for two things, empanadas and alfajores. I had every flavor of empanada. They are… good. The crust is a little dry. Not fantastic, but they satisfy the craving.
The alfajores, though, these are the BEST alfajores I’ve had in LA. The cookie just crumbles in your mouth, it’s so soft.
I judge an alfajor by the cookie, because dulce de leche is always delicious, but sometimes the cookie part falls flat. Not theirs. I don’t know if they make them there or if they get them elsewhere. They’re just good and fresh tasting.
A box will run you about $ 8 or $.70 cents each or so. Kind of pricey for a small box of cookies, but I’m still buying it.
It’s all takeout, so look forward to eating in your car.

Okay, I have to get up my butt and walk over to this spot, and I am sure glad I DID!!!
Luckily, I was there before 1pm, it seems that they have a short day during Sundays and are close on a Monday.
As I have been told, this place is good and I just finished shoving my half of steak and half of Milanese sandwich down and I can’t seem to stop eating the empanadas.
Since I came over a little late I only get to sample the Ham & Cheese, Corn, Cheese and Beef. All were very good but right now my favorite is a toss up between the beef and the Ham and Cheese. I have to go back and try the Spinach. Everything was great and freshly prepared.
Melissa, the nice lady behind the counter was very helpful to a first time visitor like me. For a small spaced establishment, they do have a lot of wonderful stuff, the wines… since I was walking I did not get to buy some bottles but next time I am bringing a car. Thank you again Rincon and YES, I will be back for more.

I can only attest to their empanadas — but oooh man they’re tasty. I trek out from Temple City/​Arcadia area for their empanadas! And at $ 1.20 a pop, who can resist?!
They’re huge, probably about 5 – 6 inches in length. Two or three of these could fill you up! There’s queso, spinach/​cheese, corn, beef, chicken, and ham.
Parking — I usually get lucky and park right in front, or that strip of parallel spots right after you pass the store. It’s at the corner of Verdugo/​Colorado.

They offer six flavors of empanadas:
Beef, spinach, chicken, cheese & onion, ham & cheese and cheese & corn.
The spinach is the best! The dough is thin and the fillings are tasty. I love how no utensils are required because it is in a little pocket you can hold. Do call in advance for larger orders as all are made fresh. Give them at least 45 – 60 mins. Tiny shop with lots of customers. Parking is a pain but keep circling the streets and you may find something.
They do take credit cards.

Love their empanadas!
–cheese

Great homemade desserts
Nice selection of Malbec wines
Delicious!

It’s a small Argentinian market/​deli. I love the empanadas, especially the spinach ones. They also have ham and cheese, and beef. They are always fresh and warm. They also sell pizza by the slice or the whole. Very good.
I have purchased other breads there and the crustless sandwiches which were all tasty and inexpensive. There is a lot of wine and meats to choose from.
The staff is friendly and customer services is great. Parking is on the street, limited but can usually find a spot.

The best meat in Los Angeles.
la mejor carne que he comido en los Estados Unidos
La picanha és maravilhosa.
