I recently tried Nonna’s Empanada at Grand Central Market in DTLA, and it was such a nice treat! Had the korean beef empanada — juicy & savory!

The only thing I wish was slightly better is the serving temperature — it could’ve been a bit warmer to really enjoy that fresh-out-of-the-oven feel. If you’re exploring Grand Central Market, this spot is definitely worth a stop — a nice mix of comfort and flavor in every bite!

Tucked inside Grand Central Market in LA is this little empanada stand with SO MANY DIFFERENT FLAVORS!!! We got a couple to try since we had our eye on other things at this food hall. We opted for spinach and mozzarella and guava. HIGHLY recommend the spinach or any of their top flavors! Priced well too!

We came here before a concert. We got the chicken Alfredo the Philly cheesesteak the Cuban and the Asada empanadas they were extremely dry. They have a lot of meat but no sauce or anything to go with it. I would not come back here.
