Went to this establishment today for first time with a friend. Wow! What a diamond in the rough. Clean, small and welcoming. The service was awesome and the food was well worth it. A few options to choose from, from original to pizza style. Prices are great. The sky is the limit for this place. I will be back.

I just happened to see this place driving down the street and stopped in, I think they're a little expensive, but they were good, I'd go there again

First time in. Empanadas were filled with hearty portions and the pastry was puffy and delicious. Owners son, Eduardo runs things and for good reason takes pride in this family run business.

So good!
This place popped up as a suggestion in my DoorDash app and I thought they looked good so I gave it a shot.
My life will never be the same. I ended up going back two days later for more.
The pastry on these empanadas is melt-in-your mouth delicious, and the filling is even better. I got a mix and match dozen so I've tried most flavors. While they are all delicious, the Quesabirria is hands down my favorite. Lord have mercy!
The sweet options also leave nothing to be desired. The Churro Cheesecake is a beautiful buttery cinnamon sugar pocket of heaven.
Seriously, go give them your money. You won't regret it.

This place does not make empanadas, they make incredibly authentic and good tasting dishes, THEN, they put them on an empanada. It all tastes great, all of it, I ordered 8 different kinds to just try them and I cannot pick a favorite, they’re ALL great, I am very glad we discovered it. We will be back!

I've always liked empanadas. I freaking LOVE these, LOVE. I've never tasted such perfection. They have literally ruined any other empanada for me and I couldn't be happier. The ratio of the filling to the best tasting pastry shell.... Whew. Freaking awesome.

Service and food here was amazing! This was my first time and I want to go back to try more flavors. The owner was so incredibly nice, giving us agua fresca to try while we waited and even adding macaroni salad to our order. The restaurant is extremely clean and would be a nice place to eat in soon. Definitely recommend this place and he deserves all the business
