Excellent communication
I communicated with Inez several times by email and once in person prior to our event and she was extremely responsive and specific each time. We had detailed information about the cost, food and beverage order, and event space beforehand - and our experience on 3/10/24 matched up exactly or exceeded those expectations.

Private Dining · 30 guests
We had a private post-Wedding brunch at Chicago's Empanada Mama for 25 guests and cannot see enough wonderful things about the food and drinks, the lovely space, and, especially, the owner Inez and the rest of the staff. They went above and beyond in every way and our guests had a wonderful time. We are two thumbs way up!!
