Empanadas Cafe offers a diverse selection of empanadas, including the flour kind from Argentina and the Dominican quipes. The restaurant is described as the most NYC-diverse Latino spot, with an empanada for everyone. The unique flavors and presentation make it a worthwhile experience.
The staff works hard to serve customers quickly, though the restaurant can get quite busy. Customers can avoid leaving with a food odor as the restaurant operates as a takeout window.
Reviewers praise the "Best Empanadas" that are "to DIE FOR" with "delicious" green sauce, ketchup, and mayo mixes. The chicken and cheese, as well as the beef and cheese empanadas, are highly recommended. The homemade blackberry ice cream was also a hit during the summer.
While some customers find the prices "reasonable," others note a change in the "impersonal, cold atmosphere" and feel the empanadas are "not the same anymore." Parking can be limited on Fridays due to ASP between 11:30 am and 1 pm.
