Half Moon Empanadas
1311 Miller Rd, Coral Gables, FL
Crema's Take
“Half Moon Empanadas is a beloved campus spot in Coral Gables where expertly crafted Argentine empanadas steal the show—the spicy chicken variety is a consistent favorite—and the iced coffee hits just right during study breaks. What really sets this place apart is the genuine warmth of the staff, particularly Lianet, who remembers regulars and their preferences without being asked. The matcha lattes are exceptional too, making it the kind of neighborhood cafe where you're treated like family, not just another order.”

I love the empanadas, the iced coffee…honestly everything is delicious, especially during class breaks 😍 . My only suggestion would be to please update your posted business hours. It’s a bit misleading and frustrating when the hours say you’re open but the shop is actually closed. Gracias :)
Lianet is always helpful and friendly. I truly appreciate that she remembers to give me my UM staff discount without being asked each time. My fave is the spicy chicken empanada. They are all good, it's just a personal preference.
I had breakfast here. The Argentine empanadas were delicious, and my favorite is the spicy chicken one. The best thing about the place is the service from the people who work there. They're very friendly and provide wonderful service, and the place is very clean. I recommend it 100%!
I want to share my experience about the empanadas on campus, which are definitely the best I’ve ever had. My favorite is the bacon and beef; it’s delicious! Additionally, the coffee they serve is excellent, and the customer service is always very friendly.
The best hot matcha latte in the UM.
