Island Empanada of Merrick offers a variety of delicious empanadas. The empanadas are less greasy compared to other places, but some customers feel the prices are not the best. The lunch special is worth the price, with fresh and beautifully presented tostones. The staff is friendly, providing a pleasant dining experience. The decor may suggest Puerto Rican cuisine, but the authenticity of the food is debated by some customers. Overall, it's a clean establishment where one can enjoy a quick bite, though it may not be the top choice for those seeking an authentic taste of Puerto Rican cuisine. Customers praise the wide selection of empanadas, including Philly cheese steak, shrimp, beef, chicken, pasteleon, and buffalo chicken. However, some have experienced slow service and inconsistent quality, with one customer mentioning that the empanadas were not fresh and the meat felt like rubber. Despite these occasional issues, many customers express their intention to return for more empanadas.
