The Original Marini's Empanada House in Houston is the Argentine family kitchen on Westheimer in Westchase since 2007 (1971 in Montrose), with 80 savoury.

Signature: Beef empanadas, Argentine flan

Order: Classic beef empanada (baked, the original), the corn empanada, the dulce de leche dessert version.

Tip: Order half-dozen mixed (savoury) plus a single sweet to taste. The fried versions are heavier; baked is closer to the Argentine original.
