Had a quick lunch here after flying in from Toronto and it’s really good. The empanadas were all very flavourful and delicious, with what tastes like an Italian twist (in the chimichurri sauce). I got their chicken pot pie, chicken and mushroom, and beef and potato flavours. All great. The pastry dough was perfect too.I just came back from Italy so I had to try their gelato too out of curiosity.I sampled the Italian classics (tiramisu, Stracciatella, and mango sorbet). I have to say the tiramisu tasted a bit artificially flavoured which was disappointing, and the straccciatella lacked flavour. I don’t blame the owner though, Italian quality chocolate chips, flavourings, and cream are hard to come by in North America.However, the mango sorbet was very delicious and flavourful, I could taste fresh mangoes. The other flavour I picked was the hazelnut crunch, and it was also surprisingly delicious. The hazelnuts were fresh, and tasted great.Would go back!

Delicious!! Beef empanada combo with Greek salad 🥗 is a must!! Empanadas are baked and you can taste the freshness and quality of the products. Come here often, it never disappoints!! 🙌

Stop! Stop! Grab some!!!! Beef and potato, chicken and samosa. Crust is flaky and super well seasoned which is not something you typically get in dough. Most of the times the dough isnt tasty but holy moly these were soooooooo good. Not much in the way of sitting and parties, so grab some for the walk on the highway sidewalk. You wont regret it.

If you are starving after the beach you can stop by Sergio’s to eat at least 2 empanadas and gelato 🍨

Its a nice little spot. The crust on the empanadas are amazing & with so much filling! I recommend the mushroom and chicken! Dont forget to buy a jar of their chimichurri to go!

Whenever were in Laguna Beach, we make it a point to stop by at Sergios for their delish Empanadas and Chimichurri! The Empanadas are prepared Argentinian style with a variety of meat and veggie fillings. Slightly on the pricier side, probably due to the prime location, but the portion sizes are huge. You can even purchase frozen Empanadas to bake at home.

Simple place, best is for take out. Empanadas are perfectly made, authentic. Flaky pastry with very flavorful fillings. A bit pricey but worth trying out.

Im not an empanada expert but this was a fantastic spot to stop for a snack. Besides empanadas, you can get Vietnamese coffee and alfajores. They also sell their house chimichurri, which made a fun gift for friends back on the east coast

Love this place and I appreciate the sign out front! It definitely caught our attention. Empanadas are under $5 and they had vegetarian options, which made me happy. Sergio was really cool to us and made my day. Highly recommend this place based on the food and how hospitable the owner is.
