These are the best empanadas I have ever had, if you live in LA and you are not eating these empanadas I Dorn know what you are doing. Special shoutout to the philly cheesesteak and the guava cheese dessert empanada. These are incredible, they rock, best empanadas ever.

I purely stumbled into this place by accident after my car broke down across the street. After I got the car towed, I chose this location to get picked up by a Lyft driver. I was starving and had some time before getting picked up so I ordered an empanada. Beyond delicious! Came back the next day to try out some more empanadas. I'm about to recommend this place to everyone and bring some friends next time.Extremely friendly service as well!

Love this place. There aren’t many Puerto Rican restaurants in LA, but this one is hands down the best! Very authentic. The empanadas are amazing and so is the rice and penil. The Tembleque cheesecake is fire too!

Parking: Usually plenty of parking spaces available.
