“Excellent place!!! Everything is top- notch!!! Highly recommended!“

“Best Empanadas I've had! Great black owned business in NY, Everyone at my job loves this place“

“The food here is really good!!!

I unfortunately came on a Friday night (avoid Friday nights eating in, just order out) and they were very short staffed. My waiter was friendly but I asked for a on the rocks margarita and got frozen, I asked for tap water, never got it and i never received utensils. The music was incredibly loud. But it’s nyc on a Friday night.

The Good: The woman in the back was a BOSS!!! running everything! She was so sweet and handled everyone with care. It seemed she was also responsible for the online orders which looked overwhelming.

The green salsa sauce was amazing and soooo good! Don’t change the recipe!

The food again was delicious. Really large portions. Take it easy or go ham!

Next time I would just order out.“

“Everything on the menu is a must . It’s definitely a Go to spot when you’re in the city nyc !!!“

“Great Customer Service Quick service“

“Excelente servicio y comida . En pocas palabras una experiencia distinta“

“Seating is limited - the food fresh and tasty- NYC rated A restaurant- staff friendly“

“Loved the food - the five of us ordered everything on the starter and entree menu to share, and the winner was the steak. The fish and chips was very special too. Everything was very yummy, and the service was exceptional given there was only one server and one bartender on a Friday night. I took one star off only because there was no AC and I was eaten alive by mosquitos.“

“Staff was very polite, friendly and the food was great and fresh. I highly recommend.“

“I have loved coming here since I first discovered Hide and Seek. I started to come two years ago which gradually led to meet ups for book club, live music, catchups with friends, and just enjoying the best food/drinks. This week my partner had a venue close down their spot on the day of their birthday and two days before their birthday party. Hide and Seek welcomed us with open arms and helped us create the best birthday yet. Thank you for the best experience, service and accommodating us so last minute! This is truly one of my favorite places and a must go to. Can’t wait for my next visit!“

“Had the best empanadas ever from this restaurant. The staff were very friendly and very helpful. The space is very cute and the food was so amazing. The music was great too. I had a guava con queso and a mechada platano yesterday queso blanco. Everything was so delicious. I will be back for more. I love Venezuela 🇻🇪🇻🇪🇻🇪“

“I pass this place all the time but never thought to stop in. Big mistake! The other morning I finally decided to give it a try and ordered a late breakfast via DoorDash. I went with the Venezuelan Breakfast, and wow, it was incredible. The shredded beef was perfectly seasoned, the caraotas (black beans) were flavorful, and the arepa was easily one of the best I’ve ever had. The scrambled eggs and sweet maduros rounded everything out and made the meal so satisfying. Now I can’t wait to explore more of their menu. Highly recommend!“

“Amazingly delicious, filling and inexpensive. Their empanadas deserve a Michelin star“

“El dia Jueves visite las instalaciones como de costumbre, la comida del lugar es muy rica. Es dificil encontrar unas ricas empanadas y que a la vez te sientas comodo en el lugar; quiero hacer mencion que la Srita. Karen es muy amable, siempre atendiendo con una sonrisa y con un gran entusiasmo. Gracias por su excelente servicio al publicó!!“

“Listen, I’ve visited New York about three times now, and every single trip I make it a priority to stop at this bodega. I first discovered it during a tour on my very first visit, and I’ve been hooked ever since.

They sell a variety of things, but let me be clear—the empanadas are the star of the show. Oh. My. Gosh. They are packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and BIG. You can literally get full off just one.

If you’re ever in the area, do yourself a favor and try their empanadas. I have to warn you though: once you taste one from this spot, you’ll never be satisfied with an empanada from anywhere else. You’ll only crave theirs.

Highly recommend!“

“Girasol Bakery has fresh bread, cookies, and pastries that are delicious. The bakery is the hidden gem of Richmond Hill. Those who do not get the opportunity to sample their foods are truly missing out. It's a must-go to for really good food.“

“I really really liked the food here, its not too pricey and empanadas are extremely filling. I love they have vegan and vegetarian options as well as pizza and ice cream. This place has it all. I definitely recommend this spot, its worth every penny!“

Thanks for everything(Original)Los plátanos chicharrones los pastelillos con carne y queso con pollo también la bebida de coco y piña la chuletas y papa frita. Ven para la fruta y vegetales de Evelyn and enjoy.. Gracias por todo“

“I love this place!!! Everything on the menu is soooo tasty and the employees are so awesome. Always so kind to me even when it’s busy. The food is so nostalgiac, it’s so nice to have such a good Latin spot nearby where I work.“

“It is an excellent place, good food, good prices, the staff is friendly and serves quickly, the place is clean, safe to eat and hang out. I recommend it. It seems like a good place. I have eaten there for years and it has always been a restaurant that I like to return to.

Vegetarian options: It is not a restaurant focused on vegetarian food but they sell salads, juices and a person who does not eat meat can still enjoy a good meal.

Kid-friendliness: It is a clean, quiet place, the staff is friendly and polite and the restaurant in my opinion does not represent any risk for a minor.

Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp so that a person in a wheelchair or other device that supports walking has the accessibility of being able to enter the premises without major difficulties.“

“Best after hour spot.. ��� delicious food“

“BB Empanadas is the definition of fast, friendly, and flavorful. The service is consistently great — you pop in, grab your food, and you’re on your way in no time. Perfect for a quick bite without sacrificing quality. Highly recommend if you’re looking for delicious empanadas with zero hassle.“

“Food and service is phenomenal! I’ve been here numerous times and they have never let me down. The food is of a high end restaurant, pleasantly surprised by the dishes they produce. YOU MUST eat there, you won’t be disappointed. You’re welcome ☺“

“Small spot, not a lot of seating. The woman at the counter not the most welcoming but nice enough. The coconut flan was absolutely delicious ($5). Not too sweet. Very creamy. My mom is a flan snob since she makes it herself, and she loved it!“

“The restaurant was very neat, tidy and clean. The food is delivered in less than 10 minutes. The service was very friendly and personable. The supervisor was very accommodating to the new hire and to the customers as well. I ordered a chimichanga with extra spice. It hit the spot. I would come out to Bronx again.9/10

Vegetarian options: They can substitute and beans for any meat.“

“Had the Fish Tacos for my very first time, never tried it before. Was not disappointed!! Family member went to purchase some food items from, Elmont Fish Market, one of those items were the Fish Tacos for me to take home for lunch. When I got home and sampled the Fish Tacos, I was blown away!!They were delicious, fresh, well seasoned, tasty, and full of flavor!! "Yummy!"“

“This is the best smoothie place hands down. You need to get your smoothie done by a girl, not a guy. Preferably the chunky girl.They make it perfect. Not too liquidated, just perfect frothy texture. Anytime I cheat on this place I’m like why did I do it? And they make the beeestttt empanadas. Not too oily , just perfectly cooked. I love this place. And thank god I don’t live near because I would easily weigh 600 pounds.“

“They sell super authentic, affordable and super flavorful pastelitos (Dominican fried empanadas), but don’t let the fact they’re fried scare you away! They make them with different fillings, and they truly don’t disappoint. With many empanada spots opening up, they do not compare because the pricing is high or the flavor is lacking. Here the experience is worth every penny, especially the pastelitos de cangrejo (crab empanada) they make.No hay nada más auténtico que un pastelito hecho con mucho amor. No te arrepentirás, te lo aseguro.“

“The sweetest, most caring employees. Always make sure nobody feels rushed while also making sure everyone’s orders get out in a timely manner. Food is authentic - great lunch deals for when you’re in a rush but want a complete meal. It’s open 24hrs hence at times it’s a little slower bc there is less staff but overall, always a pleasure doing business with them ?✨??“

“I went today and omg it was great. Delicious fresh empanadas. I highly recommend empanada city ❤️“

“Absolutely love this spot! The empanadas, smoothies, and food are all incredibly delicious—fresh, flavorful, and made with care. You can really taste the difference. The prices are fair and definitely worth your bucks. They recently got new owners, and they’re doing a fantastic job. The lady who’s always there is so kind and welcoming—it feels like you’re being served by family. Highly recommend checking it out!“

“Always delicious! Literally never disappointed!“
