These empanadas are incredible, and the owner is always so friendly and nice. I love trying the specials. The vegan breakfast empanada is the best!!! I could literally eat here every day!

Parking: Plenty of parking
Kid-friendliness: They are always so nice to my little one. She loves to sit at the picnic table. She gets the strawberry and cheese empanada. :)

I really cannot say enough good things about the Empanada Lady! My families absolutely favorite food truck. The food is top notch. I’ve tried all of her empanadas now and haven’t tried one yet that wasn’t delicious. She has a regular menu of favorites and then rotates out specials. Sometimes she even has soups or rice dishes, the specials are not to be missed when you can catch them. We follow her on Facebook where she often posts what the specials will be coming up, that way we can plan ahead because she does sell out sometimes. The De Verde and Beef empanadas are my favorites but you can’t go wrong with any of them. The De verde is a crispy delicious shell of green plantain stuffed with a gooey cheese that’s so flavorful it catches you off guard. The beef is seasoned heavily and deliciously and packed full of meat, veggies and egg. The savory empanadas come with a handmade sauce that is like nothing I’ve ever had before, it’s flavorful and bright and compliments everything. I wish I could buy it by the jar honestly. She has savory and sweet, the dulce de leche is mind blowing when you can get one. It’s crispy but filled with gooey caramel that tastes like grandma made it. She has a little picnic table outside the truck so you can sit in the shade and eat if you don’t want to take your food with you, but sometimes you can catch her on Uber eats if you want delivery. All that being said about the food, I also can’t say enough about how nice the lady is who runs the truck, and when he’s there her husband is super kind as well. She knows her regulars, she’s always in a great mood and she’s just a genuinely nice person.

Empanada Lady empanadas are my weekend ritual.She offers a variety of flavorful and creative fillings and her pastry dough is buttery and crispy! The portions are sized generously; one is enough to satisfy, but two are perfect for a meal-sized portion.I recommend the sausage and plantain (we love a sweet and salty combo, especially with the salsa she makes to pair!) and any of her chicken empanadas, as they’re my personal favorites.
