I like going here to sit in the front of the building with my son. It’s nice to sit on a busy road and people watch sometimes, while being able to get my son out of the house at the same time. I’ve only ordered a drink and empanada here and they were decent. I’m mostly writing the review because of the owner. He’s such a nice guy was very friendly and kind to me and my son. The sons owner also works here and he’s a nice person as well.

Just stop by again to get my favorite 2 empanada chicken and cheese and beef and cheese. The lovely girl behind counter let me try a guava with cheese one and OMG was amazing. Thank you now I have another favorite. Yum yum delicious

Great concept which could use a little help with execution. The idea of tons of different types of empanadas sold in boxes like donuts is brilliant. Every town should have a store like this. That said there is room for improvement. First, lay off the salt on the chicken and beef empanadas, and consider adding other flavorful condiments. Second,recreating jersey and Italian staples in empanada form is interesting once, but not something I’d build half my menu around. Consider exploring flavors like curry or spicy BBQ, spiciness, and other meats, like pork. Lastly, their dough is pretty great, but I would serve the empanadas a bit hotter in temperature.

I was really excited about this place and their skinny Cuban. But I started eating it and realized the chicken was raw. I’m pregnant and freaking out now. I called and the girl on the phone apologized but that was it

The empanadas were fantastic ! They have ample amount of choices. I decided to go with the buffalo chicken which was great- totally stuffed with shredded chicken & buffalo sauce. I also went for the bacon, egg& cheese which I wasn’t toooooooo sure about but ended up LOVING it. My boyfriends go to choice is the Philly cheese steak && chicken / cheese. Awesome spot! The empanadas are heated up and placed into a to go box & bag. They also have seating if you wanted to enjoy your lunch / snack inside! We also ordered the lemonade which was perfectly sweetened & flavorful. I’ll definitely drop back here for lunch again soon & try a couple different types !!!

I love empanadas so why not start my cheat day with some. When I arrived there was only street parking but I found a spot right away. When I walked in there was someone ahead of me but when I got to the counter I asked questions and the server was very informative. I decided to go with the buffalo chicken empanada and beef empanada. She told me I can add a drink for the same price so I went with the lemonade. It only came to about $5.35 which is a bargin.

Had a Great Experience here. The Dessert Empanada was the highlight. Very pricey at $3 per empanada, but they do deliver a quality product. You can have your dessert empanada hot or cold. I had cold. The flaky casing was perfect with a good amount of filling..I ate one in the car and immediately went back in to bring 6 more home. The Beef empanada was off the charts as well. I will be back for sure. Great job.

Saw on Grubhub searching for empanadas. There were many selections of empanadas & other sandwiches. I got a few to try them out. They weren’t greasy. Not sure if they are baked. Tho hot and fresh & great flavor. A+++ thanks again… see you soon….

Stopped by on the way home on friends recommendation. The dough was crispy and flaky. BEC yummy, beef was great, chorizo and potatoes excellent, Cuban was perfect, and the surprise was the mango and cheese delicious. We also picked up some dessert empanadas. Apple pie, Oreo and Nutella.

Very disappointed. I ordered the beef and cheese empanada and it was filled with what looks like potatoes. Terrible flavor. Would not recommend this place.
