A new spot to score yerba mate beverages, empanadas and more has opened in the neighborhood. The fresh addition to Pacific Beach, called Yerba Mate Bar & Empanadas, is at 956 Garnet Ave.
Heard about yerba mate and wanting to try it? This is the first locale in San Diego to specialize in the South American beverage, which the business describes as a rich source of powerful antioxidants. In addition to hot or cold yerba mate drinks, the spot also offers a variety of freshly baked empanadas.
With a five-star rating out of six reviews on Yelp so far, Yerba Mate Bar & Empanadas has been warmly received by patrons.
Ian B., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on June 22, wrote, "Solid. We have been missing empanadas — quick, tasty, cheap — as an alternative to tacos for a year or more in PB. Food is on point, the outdoor seating area is family-friendly and the price is right."
And Meri D. wrote, "Awesome little spot for yerba mate drinks, empanadas and more right in the heart of Garnet. I tried their dulce de leche drink iced, it was super creamy and great, along with the cold brew salted DDL, which was sweet. For empanadas, I tried beef, chicken and bacon. Each one was appetizing and tasty."
Swing on by to take a peek for yourself: Yerba Mate Bar & Empanadas is open from 8 a.m.–8 p.m. daily.
