Colombian Take Out Restaurant
A hidden gem in Toronto, this empanada shop is an amazing price for the quality of the food! Every item is flavourful, and hearty. I love that the majority of the menu - including dessert - caters to those who are gluten free. I will definitely be coming back!
This place is straight up delicious. Everything Everything always tastes super fresh and perfectly cooked. I like to get 2 empanadas as a snack when passing by: the chorizo to start and for dessert, their guava and cheese (don’t knock it until you try it!). Their Deluxe arepa is also straight fire 🔥 and an excellent bang for your buck. Don’t pass on the sauce!
Everything I have tried has been delicious. Empanadas are 10/10. Really appreciate all the gluten free options - first time being able to have empanadas AND churros in 5+ years since having to be GF. One of my go to spots now!
Had a cheese empanada and a Pony Malta while I waited for a stuffed arepa deluxe. So delicious. Everything was great! Highly recommend this place.
Cute, they had a few vegan options and were very helpful to point them out. I tried their empanada veggie and it was a nice treat.
Corn empanadas are fresh and delicious. Cheese and guava (sweet and savoury), spinach and cheese (generous with the spinach), beef and potatoes (mashed yummy potatoes balanced with beef). And 3 nice sauces to accompany (extra spicy Mexican, green sauce, spicy mayo) when I ate in. Lovely staff!
Been in a hunt for some really good empanadas, and finally found this place!! The dough was perfect consistency & the filling was flavoured so delicious. I brought it for some friends and they enjoyed it a lot too. I ended up picking beef potatoes, chorizo, chicken & spinach. The empanadas also came with salsa + spicy mayo. Can’t wait to come back and try more of their stuff. The service was also great, the staff was very friendly :)
The food here is DELICIOUS! It's flavourful, it's visually appealing and the portions are a fair size. The shop itself is cute and chic- really invites you in from the street. We tried the Deluxe Grilled Arepas with Beef and Chicken (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) and a variety of different empanadas...all delicious and ready quickly! The Guava and Cheese empanada really surprised me- it was sweet and completely different than what I have previously tasted. I highly recommend that you check this junction triangle gem out 💎..... immediately!
Great everything. Going back soon
good food, the arepa was delicious and very large, right next to it there is a parking bay, which makes it very convenient
Definitely the best columbian empanadas Ive had in the city, for sure. The flavour is spectacular! I had the beef and potato, chicken, and chorizo empanadas and they were all delicious! The beef rib soup is also fantastic!
We arrived at the place 10 minutes before 7 pm Very friendly, the service was super The food is delicious like being in Colombia!! Even though it was the end of the day, the food was fresh. Very authentic flavor I will return again Thank you
Great Authentic Colombian food.

The best empanadas in Toronto that I have ever tried. A small business run by a family. lady running the shop is very kind.

A great place if typical Colombian foods are your thing.
One of the best latin restaurants in the GTA. The closest it gets to the amazing Colombian food in Canada. Loved everything on the menu. The Empanadas are delicious. And my favorite is the Ajiaco soup. Totally love it here, unfortunately the seating is limited but everything else is worth the visit.
A magnificent service with delicious food, totally Colombian, highly recommended for those who wish to taste the flavors of the land.
This is truly an amazing place for some delicious colombian snacks, but the most important thing to me is the customer service; the ladies are really nice and so kind . I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE.
THE RICHEST emanates IN TORONTO!!! I love the place, the super nice service, the entire menu is undoubtedly delicious, the best thing is that all the food is strawberry and in just 10 minutes I got my order The sauces are AMAZING, I love spicy and that EXTRA HOT Mexican sauce met my expectations! CONGRATULATIONS!!
just got a beef arepa and it was SO SALTY, I was expecting from them to take it off the bill because I didn t eat it but it didn t happen. the service was okay but I expected way more. so disappointing experience
i saw this girl with cute hair but i didnt say hi oh yeah the food was amazing!
Delicious empanadas for a fair price, and the fried plantain is so good, I crave it regularly. Very friendly service. Highly recommended!
I loved this place. The seasoning is delicious. The Chorizo empanadas are delicious, the chorizos and stuffing are highly recommended.
Best empanadas
Super clean kitchen, super friendly staff, super good empanadas and so many different flavours too!
Best empanadas in Toronto! Everything was so delicious can t wait to be back
Best empañadas I ve had in the city!
They make everything fresh and hot, usually 10 minutes and it was so delicious.
I tried this place a few days ago and loved it. I love the spinach and cheese empanada. It s just sad I can t get them delivered to Mississauga. Hopefully in the future they allow deliveries to Mississauga.
Delicious and excellent service!
Very good Colombian food.
I just had the YUCCA FRIES and they blew my mind! SO DELICIOUS and lovely staff that serve you with a smile. YUM! Will be going back again and again! Vegetarian options: LOVE THAT THEY HAVE VEGAN (GF) Options clearly labelled! Dietary restrictions: LOVE THAT ALL THE FOOD IS LABELLED ( GF)
Hot, good, on time, pleasant staff. Ill be back.
Everything was delicious! My favourite was the cheese guava empanada
The best empanadas I have ever eaten.
The best Colombian empanadas in Toronto. And the service is excellent.
The empanadas are delicious we tried almost all of them (cheese, beef, cheese and guava, cheese and spinach and hawaiian) and they were really tasty. We also bought a pack to go and they keep that delicious texture and flavor.
Wish the spot was bigger but loved my arepa!
Not one to make a review but Colombian Street Food deserves it. The owner is impossibly kind and generous and the food is insanely delicious. Thank you!
The veggie green fried plantain was sooo good, perfectly crispy and very filling! The alfajores were also delicious. Quaint spot to grab a bite with friendly service.
Lovely place, good presentation, fun ,fair price, 200% recommend ,( beautiful people)
The empanadas are amazing. Beans and rice were nice and sweet. Prices are decent. Believe all the food is gluten free so very friendly for those with celiac. Their pantry items look great as well. Definitely would go back. This time Ill buy some tostones. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free food.
omg the cheese arepa was HEAVEN
Popped in for a late lunch and sampled some veggie/vegan delights. I also cleaned out the freezer to bring a lot home. Wonderful food lovely people.
Really nice folks. Holy moly the empanadas were good. Definitely coming back.
The food is delicious, prices are affordable, and the service is amazing!!
The owner was friendly and gave us lots of help to make a decision about what to order. And food was delicious!
Delicious! Will be back for sure Vegetarian options: They have them. Vegan too Food : 5/5 |
Delicious empanadas. The service is spectacular, the lady is always very attentive with the service. 100% recommended
The Beestttt! Colombian Street Food has the best empanadas I have ever tried in Toronto. The Hawaiian, guava and cheese and, cheese are fantastic. The place is really cute and cozy and the staff is really friendly. Food : 5/5
Absolutely loved this place! We had Stuffed Deluxe Arepas, the Gauva & Cheese Empanada ans Beef and Potatoe Empanada...all of which were amazing! Highly recommend this place!
Great place, stopped by for some easy dinner. Love that everything is glutenfree. Thats awesome for us as we can choose instead of settle for whats on offer -if any.
Great little place, the empanadas are delicious. super friendly staff. Its worth checking out!!
We had about a dozen Empanadas from Colombian Street Food and we devoured them like animals. For what we normally find in the GTA, they were actually pretty good in size, filling and flavor. Also, they were very well cooked, crispy on the outside and moist and tender on the inside. However, we all agreed that the sauces were watery and runny, especially the salsa (aji) which would benefit from a bit more substance to enhance the taste.
Visiting this Colombian restaurant was an incredible experience! The empanadas are really delicious and definitely one of the best Ive ever had. The staff is so friendly and welcoming they make you feel at home. Plus, I loved that they offered a variety of Colombian takeout items, which is perfect for bringing a little piece of Colombia home. I will definitely be back to try more dishes! Highly recommended!
Vegetarian options: For empanadas, they offer vegatarian options such as spinach and cheese, and guava and cheese Food
The empanadas are delicious, I am stuffed and thinking of going back for more.
The individual who served us was very friendly and made some recommendations when asked. We tried 3 different empanadas and we could not decide which was our favorite, all were amazing! I will be back if Im able!
Really good empanadas!
Delicious
Delicious food enjoyed eating here
The best empanadas Ive had in a while! We ordered three empanadas ($3.75 each, with bulk discounts available), which were delicious and flavourful; the empanadas are gluten-free, and there are vegetarian options. There are also yuca fries, fried plantain, arepas, and several sweets on the menu. The store also sells frozen tamales, black pudding, empanadas, arepas, and other food products. You can order online for pick-up or delivery or walk-in. Accessibility: There is a ramp to enter the store.
A very good place to go to eat, truly representative of Colombian food, I hope in the future they will be encouraged to add more dishes, extremely recommending
Empanadas to die for: they are made with filling of your choice placed in every nook and cranny of the masa harina
Fresh and crispy and delicious empanadas. I think I m hooked on the cheese and guava, they are exquisite
The best food I Ive tried. The attention is awesome and the new owner is so kind and polite. 100% recommended
We tried the spinach, the Hawaiian, and the chicken - all delicious and prepared fresh right in front of us. Our order came with three sauces and those were pretty tasty too. Ill be coming back for more.
Great Service, amazing empanadas and arepas! Definitely recommended if your looking for fresh delicious food.
Cane juice is to die for.
Amazing Arepas! Sweet corn and cheese is so incredibly mouth watering. I would highly recommend checking it out!
The best empanadas in the city hands down. My mouth is watering writing this lol. I want some now!
Seriously, the guava and cheese empenada is amazing. What a treat.
Excellent, tasty food and service. Enjoyed the beef plaintain sloppy sandwich but its hard to figure out how to eat it so I just ate it layer by layer.
Everything on their menu is amazing! Especially the fried plantain dish
Interesting little restaurant for a snack! I adored the empanadas!
Beautiful empanadas and lovely experience meeting and chatting with Adriana. Very friendly and welcoming space!
Guava & cheese empanada Everything was great, lots of gluten free stuff
very delicious food. Freshly prepared. Authentic. Friendly people. Highly recommended!
How delicious, to be able to travel the world and find a little piece of our country everywhere, Colombian Street Food, offers many Colombian products, I ate some delicious empanadas with a delicious chili, the customer service was magnificent, everything very organized and clean . I recommend Colombian street food % I will return every time I am in Toronto.
Stopped in and grabbed an arepa and some empanadas, and oh my they were all delicious! The shells had a perfect slight crispiness to them, and the fillings were perfectly spiced and flavourful. Will definitely be going back when Im in the neighbourhood again!
Great food, even greater people working around the clock to make it happen
Arrived at 6:01 PM, 1 minute after closing. The owners re-opened and gave us a great dinner of Arepas, Fried Plantains and Empanadas. Best Colombian food in Toronto.
Cute interior and tasty empanadas. Chocoramo is Soooo Colombian and delicious
Delicious! Don t know what to order? No worries, the friendly staff will walk you through it!
Delicious Empanadas. Friendly. Must try!!
Got a cheese and a veggie empanada. Delicious.
Chicharrón was delicious - well be back
Was delicious! Super friendly staff who answered all our questions. Definitely going back
The masa on the empanada was incredible. I brought my Colombian friend to try it out and he was very impressed as well! The guava empanada and beef were my favourite.
Amazing place!
A nice family run restaurant with friendly service. You can get 3 flavorful and crispy Colombian empanadas for $10, they come with salsa or hot sauce. The cheese empanadas are amazing! Looking forward to going back!
These empanadas are very tasty and the lady at the counter was a sweetie . We were going to go to rancho but they were closed . Well I will never go to rancho again as long as this place is open ! Wow. I just ate three empanadas and I wish I could still be hungry to eat three more. God bless you
Beautiful place and delicious food
The food is fantastic, has good prices.
Sweet corn Arepas with cheese are to die for.
What a wonderful place. You can see how they put effort into every detail. The food is great and the people are warm and friendly. A great addition to the neighbourhood
The empanadas were fresh, delicious and cheap!! This place is a must - so so good
Good empanadas
Kid-friendliness: Learned about where shes from in Columbia and she was very kind and outgoing and said I can wait for the bus cuz it was a very chilly day. I love that theres a varieties of empanadas To suit everyones needs my favorite one was the cheese and guava Food
One of the best Empanadas and Arepas I ever had ! The empanadas are crunchy, fresh and the Arepas are also amazing! I also tried the Guava sauce and was a great surprise - Ill use in a lot of things now. If you cant go to South America just grab some food here ;) Positive
Absolutely love this place - order here often for lunch. The crunchy empanadas with cheese are my go-to, but I enjoy everything. The winter special (Ajiaco Colombian Soup) was light and delicious.
The food was soooo good. We got the empanadas and they had such a nice crisp outer texture and was surprised to enjoy the vegetarian and cheese filled ones as much as I did. Guac was also really good. Looking forward to going back
Best empanadas I ve ever had! Fresh, crispy, flavourful and great sauces paired on the side! Definitely coming back!
Amazing empanadas, especially the cheese and guava. This place should have lineups out the door. Absolutely delicious (and great service too).
Not only are the ladies so nice. The food is AMAZING. Empanadas were so fresh and crisp and filling was so flavourful. I also pork belly that the lady had told me she just finished making and let me tell you.. nothing short of amazing. So good.
This place is so good!!
Cookie s empanadas are unmatched! The freshness and flavour of the empanadas are really great quality. If you go in, I highly recommend the chicken or guava and cheese especially - all empanadas come with some sauce as well. Really cozy shop and incredibly friendly staff. Treat yourself and support local!
The empanadas are amazing!! So many good ones, but the guava and cheese ones are a highlight.
This place serves my favourite empanadas in Toronto so far. I was quite orthodox about their Monday special (4 for $10 when I was living next to them. And definitely bonus points for being a family restaurant rather than another big chain!
The best empanadas!
The empanadas are dangerously delicious!
Sooo goooood
amazing!!! the owner was really nice and the food was so delicious. 3 empanadas for $9! i got beef, chicken, and chorizo. nice and crispy, packed full of meat. the salsa and hot sauce it comes with were really great and unique as well. definitely coming back here!
This place seriously has the best empanadas Ive ever had in my life. Theyre on like a whole other tier compared to others I have had. The arepas are really good too, and the staff/owner are super friendly. You need to come check them out!
Do delicious and fresh!
Amazing restaurant
Cookie Martinez catered a small outdoor event at my clinic yesterday and the food and service here was absolutely amazing!! The empanadas were hot, fresh, crispy and PACKED with goodness! Delicious gluten free and vegan options so everyone was happy. They also did a great job organizing the food into individual labeled boxes and condiment baggies. Cookie is very friendly, responsive and radiates positive vibes The Alfajores were yummy too! Thank you so much Cookie!
Great homemade-like food with very authentic flavours!
Good Columbian food.
Some of the best empanadas you will ever try!! Staff is super friendly and kind, great place to try or make your daily lunch place.
So I go I here pretty consistently over the last couple of years and everytime I go they tell me to order on online verses Walk in. Never had a problem they would punch my empanada card to lead to a free empanada. However, this time I was like since its a large order (10 empanadas) I will order online and give them extra time to get it ready. I put note saying I would like my card punched so that when I go next time I get a free empanada. I get there and she said No. Walk in only. Even though every other time they tell me to order online. Dont push your online ordering to your loyal customers if you are just going to not honor your loyalty card when they do.
Recommended! True Colombian patacones and empanadas.
hello guys! See you soon :)
Best empanadas Ive ever had.
Amazing food, tasted like I was sitting in Columbia getting homecooking. The empanadas were the best Ive ever had, and I really want to try her insect menu next!
Super tasty Colombian empanadas (my fave kind) - fried to order! Need to come back to try all their flavours.
yummy and affordable
I was looking forward to visiting the place. I ordered Hawaiian empanada and another cheese empanada with a sandwich. First reaction where is the fat?? I didnt put oil on my fingers at all, I liked that. And second, they couldnt be more crunchy I even ate one of them almost cold at my workplace and it was as crunchy as the first one, which I ate freshly made. Two problems, for me 1. As it is a gourmet type empanada, it is small and with little filling so I am left wanting something bigger, that is, something more street type. 2. They do not receive cash and I do not usually use the card for these small purchases. I still wanted more so... recommended. Adriana is very kind and attentive, very from Bogotá, thats what I thought visit her place.
Hidden gem alert!!! Delux arepas was truly delicious I was craving a warm handheld yummy something for lunch today - THIS was IT!!! Made fresh, with a couple flavourful little sauces, fresh guac & cheese. My stomach is thanking me Bonus that I picked up some Casa Luker Sol authentic Colombian hot chocolate to be enjoyed once the temperature drops ;)
Absolutely delicious. Had the stuffed fried plantain and veggie empanada
Excellent service, and very tasty food.
Sooooo good, highly recommend!! Thank you Positive
I can t stop thinking about the empanadas! Easy online order and pick up process, friendly service and yummy fresh food!
Overpriced, small portions, not fresh
Amazing taste. Great service. Excellent value. Do it!!
Had a meeting catered and Cookie was so helpful and kind. She takes pride in her food and she should because it was delicious. We had a variety of empanadas, stuffed arepas sliders and some sides. We could barely start the meeting our mouths were so full! We ll be ordering again and making our way to her restaurant very soon. Didn t get a photo of the food because we ate it so fast! Cookie delivered the food herself and she was so kind and helpful. Felt like a friend was delivering a home cooked meal.
Some of the best coffee I ve ever had, A+ service, 5 Stars. Will be back!
Great authentic Colombian food. We had four empanadas, cheese was our favourite. Pork belly was great too, crunchy and juicy! Small seating area with a fun card game and interesting selection of sodas. Great friendly service!
sooo good! I am addicted to the empanadas and the owner is lovely!
The empanadas are great, so crunchy and flavourful - Cookie is always a pleasure as well. The open times posted arent always accurate, I guess life happens. But if youre in the area and want something inexpensive and delicious, this place is highly recommended.
Super empanadas
Pls !
Kept walking by the store and stopped in this afternoon to grab some empanadas. The food was amazing and service was extremely friendly. Ill be back for more! :)
Great food and good prices! This will be a regular stop for me!
Delicious!
Best place to eat Colombian food, try the guava empanadas, well everything is great
Had the beef Arepa, it was delicious. Ill be back again for sure.
Delicious arepas, taking me to Colombia on a cold cold day in Toronto! Empanadas are crunchy, juicy and so tasteful too! My go-to for lunch break, and my family loves it when I brig back extra ones
Yummmmmmmm! Cookie makes incredible food! You will fall in love.
We ordered arepas and empanadas and they were incredibly delicious! Highly recommend!
I love the empanadas here, and the easy order and pick up system. These are the best empanadas Ive ever had, HIGHLY recommend!
Delicious
The best Colombian street food in TO The empanadas are to die for ! The arepas are killer ! The combo lunches are delish and a total home cooked meal Flavour to them. But most important she s got the best energy and attitude to welcome you into her shop and share some of that Colombian generosity we are known for!
I thought I liked empanadas until I had the cheese empanadas here - now I LOVE them!! The dough is crisp and puffy and flavourful, all at the same time, the cheese and salsa are perfection, and having them freshly cooked to order makes an amazing difference. This place is so cute and charming and Cookies friendly face and enthusiasm bring extra joy. Great little spot to grab a bite in the neighbourhood!!
Great hidden gem of a restaurant. LOVE the beef arepas. Home cooked feel, friendly people! Highly recommended!
I was looking for a place to eat empanadas and I thankfully found this amazing hidden gem. The empanadas are delicious!!! They are crispy and the filling is so tasteful, much better than the regular empanada you get everywhere ele. I will sure come back and try other items in the menu soon. Thank you!!!!!
Probably the best arepas I ve ever had outside of L. America.
Oh my God! This place is a hidden treasure for west wenders! I tried the veggie empanada and veggie arepa and both were so very tasty and FRESH. Makes me realize how very few restaurants pour so much heart and soul in creating such beautiful and delicious food. Ill be going back for more very soon - hopefully tomorrow! I also appreciate that despite limited seating, they had a high chair. Yay!
Love the chicken and the beef empanadas. The cheese one is also really good.
The Arepas are great and the empanadas are better.
Arepas are delicious. Super friendly service and great vibe!
Awesome as always, these empanadas are amazing. Perfectly crispy on outside and super flavorful inside. Tried the cheese for the first time, I coulda had 10 haha.
Reminds me of my Colombia. Needs more platters that are Colombian. Like Bistec Caballo. Portion sizes are too small. But I do realize Im in Canada.
Great place. Natalia is such a great cook and person.
I just returned from a trip to Colombia and was craving the food when I walked by this little joint. So excited to have this spot right in my neighborhood, go get some empanadas!!!!!
The Saturday deal was excellent! Chicken soup, thick with potatoes and corn will warm up more than your bones. And the empanadas were excellent! Surely will come back.
Natalias Colombian traditional cooking, with fresh ingredients and local products doesnt disappoint. Highly recommended arepas (can be vegetarian and gluten free); empanadas that she serves with an amazing chimichurri-style sauce, her award-winning guava sauce that is a unique product, and if you are up for it, some insect-based possibilities (like brittle!). She is a pioneer in this field, but I have to admit that is not for me...yet. My daughter loves it, though, and I take it for her friends at Christmas.
