La Portena

Great little restaurant tucked away in a busy and interesting part of Paris. The food was good, the price was good - brilliant!

Great service, amazing empanadas and cold beer. Try the fernet and coke!

Excellent empanadas! Nothing more to say!

I ordered two meat and vegetable empanadas, served with a salad. They were very good. Then I had an apple and cinnamon dessert, also very good. It was served piping hot. I had to wait a bit before I could eat. I said, "In France, we're used to eating cold desserts." But hey, it's a change; eating hot sweets was good too. Warning: The room is very small. You absolutely must reserve a table; otherwise, it's better to order takeout.

A good little restaurant and deli, with high-quality products and generous portions. The manager is very helpful and available.
