Belen de la Cruz - Empanadas & Pastries - Marietta

Legit Empanadas. As far as im concerned, only Argentine empanadas are the REAL ones. Deep fried empanadas are nasty. These are very good. I still cant find the ones I grew up with that had ground beef, green olives and red pimento.. but hey. Maybe ill need to make them myself. If im going to get picky ill say buying frozen empanadas for $4 each seems a touch pricey, so have them bake them for you and eat them hot. I buy them a dozen at a time for $42 but when you walk out with a small bag of these frozen, the numbers dont totally compute for me, considering ill eat 4 per sitting.

I had an amazing experience stopping by at this location! The staff were friendly and helpful! The empanadas were some of the best I’ve had as I will definitely come to try out more options! I highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area!

The empanadas here are baked and not fried, which makes them extremely tasty. Many other places fry their empanadas, which make them tend to be greasy. They have a very wide selection of meats, cheeses, and vegetables to choose from. They also have a nice dessert selection, although I have not purchased any there yet. Also, if you would like a Cuban coffee, the real thing, they have it. Stop by and pick some up. We love it for takeout for an afternoon snack. Also, their gift cards make a great gift.

So yummy, fresh and comforting. Their empanadas are so delicious and savory and truly can be eaten as a meal or a quick on-the-go snack. Our family's specific favorites are the chicken & cheese, spinach & mushroom and the butternut squash. The fact that the empanadas are baked leave you satisfied without feeling too heavy and bloated. And you can't forget to try one of their beautiful desserts. Their Tres Leches cake square is one of the best. It tastes so decadent yet natural. Belen De La Cruz is a hidden East Cobb gem!

Stumbled on this spot while visiting the Marietta area and boy am I glad I did! Argentinian empanadas are not easy to make but Belen De La Cruz knocks it out of the park with the amazing flavors. My favorite ist their CHICKEN CHEESE and their HAM & CHEESE because trust me when I tell you... the flavor is 🤯 They also have many different types of treats and sweet pastries you can try. My favorites are their dulce leche cookies, the frolas (it's like a dulce de leche pie), and their oatmeal cookies WHICH do it have raisins 🙏 Their inside is very cozy and well put together, you can come in and relax while enjoying their meal. The team is very friendly as well and will help add on to the experience. Highly recommend this place!! Check out my ROLI EATS Instagram/facebook/youtube page for th
