These are not your typical empanadas. They are baked! Which makes them sooo less greasy which I loved. The taste was great, quick easy service on a Thursday afternoon. I'm sure the weekends are crazy but would definitely go back!

Too many rules, don’t stand here, don’t eat your cookies. No description on what’s in side. Had the Cuban but allergies to pickles and didn’t know there was pickles in empanada. The chicken was good but too expensive, and toooooo many rules. Not going there anymore and don’t suggest it, not kids friendly.

I work down the street at chip city and come here 3 times a week. This is my favorite spot in the area. My favorite is the Philly cheesesteak empanada. The ladies that work there are excellent and the food is so delicious.

Small place, big heart. Great selection of empanadas, I like the buffalo chicken and also the Nutella and banana

The empanadas were really good - seasoned well, without being too spicy! The service was great- the cashier was very friendly and attentive. He made sure he even described on our bag which was what. The service was also very fast. I was in and out in minutes, with the empanadas having been warmed up and everything. The ambiance was very serene. It is quiet in there and has dimmed lighting, which I appreciated. I don't like the lights being right in your face. All in all, this was a really great place! I'd definitely come back! :)

I was never a empanada person but this place changed my mind!!! I stop by every sunday after church to wnjoy the lentil and potatoe and chicken and cheese! The workers are always super sweet and friendly too so i always make sure to throw a little something in the tip jar! It's a small place, cute for coffee dates and etc. All in all, I love it!

Beyond unprofessional. I walk in with my service dog and I have her ID. Worker is harassing me about what specific task or disability the dog does for me?? First legally you cannot ask that- I offered my ID and certification for the dog being a service dog and she refused it but instead, I wanted to ask crazy questions. If you are worried about a service dog, then you are supposed to ask for the ID not personal questions and mumbling so badly I couldn’t even understand half of what she was saying.

Empanadas look nasty and nothing seems fresh. Employees are rude.
store sells weird empanada inventions that should not be called empanadas. The original type of empanada, the meat one, has no flavor and I ended up wasting $5 for an empanada barely the size of my palm. NO

Love the walls in here, the fast service, friendly staff, and the array of empanadas that both veggie and meat eaters can enjoy. I can not suggest the eggplant parm one enough. The eggplant is cooked correctly, the flavor tastes like ya nonas Sunday dinner. Nutella banana was okay, I think it needed to be cooked more. It should have been a bit more creamy. However, you can tell how fresh the banana were. These are baked freshly, but I think they need a little more time. Both could have used an extra minute to give a bit more of a bite. All are $4. Can't wait to come back for a smack when in town. Ps they only have 1 style of sauces, I hope they can create more that play off of the flavor profiles of each empanadas because spicy mayo doesn't play well with all.
