  We ventured out to this quaint little restaurant in the Pasadena area to get some Argentinian food. I was very satisfied with the steak and Milanese sandwiches, they reminded me of my trip to Argentina. The empanadas were also filling and flavorful, I overall had a great experience and I would definitely come back.

  The food was great! Wish you could make gluten free versions. We got them because we’re studying North and South American countries.

  Super satisfying Argentinian food that is packed with flavor and value. The empanadas are perfectly made, hot and crispy and filled with tender meat. The sandwiches are generous with the meat and delicious. You order at the counter and the friendly staff bring the food out. Limited parking lot but there is nearby street parking.

  So, I had to take a job that I didn't particularly like. But the type of job I had caused me to pass by this place daily but I wasn't able to stop and have a meal here. So I vowed that the day I quit this job, I was going to drop in for some empanadas and maaaan was I pleased 😊😋 My daughter also feel in love. They had plenty of GOOD options and the staff was very informative. I especially liked all the cute notes describing what was in each container. ❤️ We will definitely be taking that drive from Cerritos, ALOT, to grab some more orders

  Love their empanadas! There's so many to choose from, ranging with sweet to savory. Been here twice (it's been hard getting here before their 7:30 pm closing time for me), and each time I've tried something different and ordered their dozen empanada deals. A single empanada is $3.95 ($3.75 when I had first drafted this review) and a dozen for $42 ($41 before). For savory, I've tried the beef (fair warning - there's olives in there =/), chicken, spinach and cheese, birria, spicy asada, al pastor, and chicken fajita. For sweet, I've ordered the apple pie and Nutella. Absolute favorites were the birria, spicy asada, spinach and cheese, and apple pie. We've also tried some of their other menu items, like the stroganoff ($20) and the gaucho burger with fries ($16), and enjoyed both of those too. For dining in, it's best to be a group of 4 or less to get a table. Otherwise, grab your food to go for home enjoyment. Parking right outside Lord Empanada is few and small, so make sure to park at the lot that's at the southwest end of Myrtle Ave and Pomona Ave. Plenty of space and spots there and a very easy minute walk to Lord Empanada!
