Whether for office catering, corporate events, or family celebrations, we bring Chicago a taste that feels familiar, unforgettable, and impossible to resist.
Food safety FAQ
Clear answers before you order
Your safety matters. Please review this information and notify us of allergies before submitting payment.
Allergy notices must be included in Special Instructions at checkout. For severe allergies, contact us before ordering.
Do you offer gluten-free empanadas?
No. We do not currently offer gluten-free empanadas. Our dough contains wheat, and our kitchen handles gluten-containing ingredients, so we cannot accommodate a gluten-free diet or guarantee protection from cross-contact.
What should I do if someone has a food allergy?
Please tell us about every food allergy before placing your order. Include the allergy in the Special Instructions field during checkout and contact us directly if the allergy is severe. This gives our team an opportunity to review the order and explain what we can safely accommodate.
Can you guarantee an allergen-free order?
No. Our food is prepared in a shared commercial kitchen where wheat, dairy, eggs, soy, and other allergens may be present. Although we take allergy notifications seriously, we cannot guarantee that any item is completely free from allergens or cross-contact.
