Nice clean reception area (take out only) quick service and very delicious empanadas. Many many different choices of fillings, also whole wheat and/or regular.

I am obsessed. They are delicious empanadas. I love the Greek, cheesesteak and chicken fajita. They do not skimp with the fillings. My husband loves the corn beef empanadas with the green sauce which has a nice kick. I love the pink sauce. We usually get them delivered and they travel well. The French fries are a little bland but we jazz them up at home. So happy we tried this place, we are return customers for life!

I went in about less than an hour before the resturant was due to close and ordered six empanadas. The staff was so friendly and kindhearted. I recommend their Greek, Pernil, Beef and Cuban empanada!

These were fresh, felt homemade and good price too. Will recommend to anyone. Broccoli & cheese, chicken and vegetables, as well as the beef were our favorites.

While the food and place are okay they don't allow you to dine onsite despite having tables and chairs. Pretty disappointing. Won't be visiting again.

My first time trying empanadas(a friend suggested this restaurant) and everything was amazing. The green sauce(jalapeño) definitely packs a punch but it adds a nice kick to a plainer empanada like the pizza one but as someone that doesn't love a ton of spice a little goes a very long way. All of the savory empanadas I've tried have been excellent as well as the dessert/sweet ones I tried. This restaurant operates as takeout only and you cannot eat/drink in the restaurant.

Delivery service is the best , very fast and everything was hot and fresh , they packed the empanadas really nicely too but I agree with some people here that they need just a little more seasoning . The filled casa a however was simply amazing .. I could eat 10 at a time haha !
