Autentica Spanish Food & Empanadas - Toronto, Ontario

Have been trending this spot for the last 7 years. This is one of those “if you know you know” spots. The Tres Leches is so unfair to any other contenders in the city. THEY MAKE THE BEST PERIOD!! The empanadas have remained consistently great since my first visit. If you are ... smart - you’ll also grab the homemade salsa to go with a few. Read more

I have been coming to this location for years and their quality is consistently good Chilean food. - Empanadas are a good size at a slightly premium price but worth it if you like beef empanadas. - The churrasco is my all time favourite with great fries cooked to a nice crisp ... and salted just right. The bread they use is authentic Chilean bread made fresh every morning. - There is a hot sauce that you can ask for but I believe the ingredients changed throughout the years so it is not as good anymore. They also have churros, filled or not filled with dulce de leche, which are pretty good. They also have various authentic Chilean pastries. Interact and credit card methods of payment require a purchase of over 10$ I believe or they charge you an extra fee. The parking will definitely be an issue, especially on a weekend. It shares parking with with dozens of businesses and you may need to park on the street or at a business in the area. You may have a hard time finding the location, as it is tucked way in the far back left corner of the plaza. You will also walk by a great deal of restaurants with strong smells (great smell but lingering none the less) Ultimately, I would highly recommend this location but even beyond that, I would recommend anyone who would like to try Hispanic food from South, Central and the Islands, to visit the plaza and try a bit of everything Read more

My dad is with stage 4 and a very picky eater. He loves your empandas! He will eat 5 of them in ONE DAY! LOL. He has tried soo many chileno empandas... but yours are his favourite! He lives 2 hours away from your restaurant and I order them when I plan ... to visit him. Thank you for making him smile every time I bring him your empandas! Read more

We got the Italiano and Churrasco sandwiches both with fries. Churrasco was better. Got some churros after. I'll be back to try other items.

The best empanadas, churros and best churrasco sándwich I have had. Gotta try this place you will love it as much as we do. Parking is a big issue , but it’s worth it.
