Chica's Empanadas is a food studio that promotes creativity without compromising quality, and lives by the philosophy that nothing brings people together like good food.

Our Story: We started making Empanadas in 2010 for family and friend events. Everybody loved our recipes, we learned from the best, perfecting the savory flavors from different countries, and providences. We then began to create many new recipes, and after receiving requests in 2011, Chica's Empanadas was established.

Unfortunately, in 2013 Chica's closed due to the desire to start a family. This decision came right after we were selected by Cosmopolitan Magazine to be featured in their 2013 Winter Holiday Edition. We closed two months later, and in 2014, our sweet Nilah-Rae was born.

Now fast forward, almost a decade later, and by popular demand, Chica's is back, and very excited to share our savory and sweet pastries again.

Chica's Empanadas went above and beyond for our wedding. We specified what we liked, and Chica's created the recipes around our requests. There was an incredible fusion of flavors with each bite. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how delicious Chica's sweet empanadas were - I highly recommend!

My retirement party was made special by Chica's. Thank you ever so much. Their team did an excellent job communicating and making sure all considerations were made for food allergy requirements. The ladies are very well-mannered, and professional. I enjoyed The World Tour Selection. The dessert was incredibly delicious - I highly recommend!
