I got the beef empanada and it was very tasty. Definitely not worth $7 (used to be $6.50) for the size (if anything should be $5 a piece). Easy to find, person in the booth didn't seem to care to be there which I get, it's work but something more than a stone face would be nice.

Frozen Empanadas
Just like most of the food in Aspen, the empanadas are overpriced and mediocre, at best. The shell was overly soft and limp, as it probably absorbed too much moisture from the filling after being left under a heat lamp for what I assume must have been hours. The filling itself was rather bland as well, but I suppose whole thing warrants a second star just because it was edible.
The reason I’m even bothering to write a review is more on the service. I was the only customer present at the time and I was patient enough to let the employee finish his 3 to 5 minute task, even after he acknowledged my presence and without making any comment on the wait. I did not leave a tip for what is supposed to be a 30-second to-go order interaction and I was called out on it by the employee. I’m not sure what qualifies as the excellent service he provided that warranted the tip, in his mind, but if excellence is defined as putting a broken empanada into a brown bag over a five-second period, then I guess I’m in the wrong.
