Empanada's Place

In 1985, Norma Gil and her sons, John, Shane, Jim and Jesse, opened their doors to the Culver City Empanada's Place. They would have never imagined how popular their unique empanadas would become. One of the great joys of Argentine cooking. We want to express our special thanks to all the food critics like Elmer Dills, Merrill Shindler, Mirta Rodriguez, Linda Burum, and so many others who collaborated with us on this journey. And to all our customers, whom we have enjoyed so much serving them.
