The Doughminican

We grabbed some empanadas and tostones as we were leaving Austin to head back home. Got one each of the chicken, beef, and ratatouille, and none of them disappointed! Tostones were also delicious - crisp and yummy, and the sautéed garlic/herb/salt on top complemented the plantain really well. Pineapple juice also delish! We will be back for sure.

The beef empanada with cheese was sooooooooo good! The tostones with sautéed minced garlic was crispy, with perfect amount of salt with garlic to top it off. The limeade was refreshing & not too sweet, which is something I look for. The limeade was the best I've ever had honestly & was perfect for the heat. Also, it is fresh squeezed. I'll be back again for sure.

I am speechless. This place is incredible. I’ve had empanadas from so many places and thought I knew good. I was WRONG. These empanadas have set my new standard. Not only is the bread flaky and moist but the inside is PACKED with meat. If you’re debating between the chicken and beef, go with beef. Chicken is also good but the beet is phenomenal. My boyfriend brought me to this place after going for the first time 5ish months ago and they remembered him, even called him by name. Such friendly sweet people running this place. I cannot wait to go back.

What a wonderful spot to come eat! I grew up eating and making Empanadas and Tostones with my Mom as a kid, and I have to say that these are the best Empanadas I've ever had. They're packed full of filling, which was super moist and comforting. The owners also both bring such a great energy, and you can tell they put passion into what they're making. Tostones were also bomb, and the fried Garlic oil garnish was the best. Refreshing Pineapple juice too, and I will be back and spreading the word! :)
