Buenos Aires Deli

Have been buying things from Mario fro a long time.... Alfajores de Maicena A MUST.
Any Yerba mate you want and fresh and not expensive.
Alfajores de Chocolate well priced and excellent.
Any wine your want .... ask Mario for suggestions

Head to the rear for the deli and get some great empanadas. The owner is very polite and patient, and answered all our questions and provided recommendations as we bought some Yerba Mate for us and friends as gifts. I'll be coming back often!

If you don't come here for the empanadas (and you should be) you'd probably come for the alcohol as it's the first thing you notice when you walk through the door.

I came here after seeing the other reviews of the Deli and because of my love of empanadas.  They have them here in a variety of sweet and savory flavors.  The day I stopped in they had spinach, mushroom, ham & cheese, chicken, ground beef, cheese & onion, and on the sweet side quince, sweet potato, and caramel.

As much as I wanted to try them all I decided to "just" go with spinach, mushroom, ham & cheese, chicken and the quince for dessert.  The crust on the savory empanadas were crispy, flaky and buttery.  All of the fillings were super flavorful.  I'm only a recent convert to mushroom-eating, and the mushroom empanada was my favorite.  I think it was the most flavorful of all of the ones I ate and I actually forgot that I was actually eating mushrooms!  The quince empanada had a little thicker/harder shell, and had a quince jelly-like filling.  It was very heavy but pretty good.  Not too sweet.

At a little less than $2 a pop, they're the perfect snack.
