Delicious empanadas! Staff is exceptionally friendly and welcoming. If you like empanadas you should try this place. And they are baked not fried. Many delicious flavors and sauces to choose from. I tried the sampler pack with one of everything.

excellent empanadas!! stopped in for the first time today and got the corn masa empanadas with beef and chimichuri dipping sauce. sooo flavorful! everything tasted very fresh and high quality. 10/10 would recommend. would suggest ordering online or by phone because there isn’t too much room to wait for your order inside.

Lovely takeout for a variety of empanadas both authentic and adapted for American palates. Savory beef, chicken & vegetarian empanadas flavored in a variety of sauces. The BBQ Pork is a standout, as is the Spinach & Artichocke, which is nice and moist inside. Plus dessert empanadas.

Best to order ahead if you want your 'nadas baked. It takes 20 min (or more) to get them fresh baked. You also have the option to take frozen ones home to bake. No difference in price.

Wish they'd offer curry beef, a crowd favorite among Asians.

The empanadas here are very good—super flavorful and perfectly made. The place itself is beautiful, with great music and a culture you can really feel and enjoy. The prices are very good too, especially for the quality you get. I’m very happy with the service and definitely recommend this spot!

They are baked not fried. Which is better for you. A little pricey, but I will buy again. And you can get them frozen and bake them at home later.

Service 10/10.

Empanadas are made lots of different ways. This particular way just lacked flavor for me. I got 4 different flavors taste nothing but pepper. Taste is subjective give this place a try. Small business amazing service very friendly glad I tried it but just not my cup of tea.

Came here on a Saturday around lunch time. I don't know why people aren't packed in here?

Firstly, the empanadas are made to order so expect to wait 10-15 minutes for them to be done. This isn't super fast food. It's just normal fast. Also, be aware there's no seating inside. Just ~3 tables outside

The payoff is awesome though. What comes out is a piping hot, crispy empanada that's not all just air. The outside is nice and flaky and the filling takes up most of the space inside. The only exception is that the dessert empanada (nutella and cream cheese) did settle to one side.

Also in their favor is their flavor variety. I tried 5 different ones (veggie, elote, cheesesteak, carribean, chicken pesto) and they were all delicious and satisfying, each one staying true to their flavor profiles.

And bonus shout out to their chimichurri sauce which was very flavorful

First time coming here and I’m absolutely blown away, Small shop with great service that seems very family oriented. Wasn’t sure what to expect with the empanada being baked not fried, but I am very pleased with how these came out. I got the BBQ pulled pork, buffalo chicken, and the Caribbean beef, all three were Amazing and perfectly baked. They have the flavors names baked into the empanada so you know which one is which before you bit into it, that’s a great touch, 10/10.
