I had the Oxtail Empanada and the way that thang melted in my mouth almost made me smack my mama (sorry ma)! I couldn’t believe, and so much flavor! I paired it with the mac n cheese and asparagus! the time before that i had salmon rice and peas, and asparagus (pic below) with the sneaky juice! amazing atmosphere, definitely will be back! thank you

Used to Be a Hidden Gem – Disappointed with Recent Visit

I’ve eaten at Issa’s Empanadas several times in the past and used to recommend it to everyone. Back then, the food was incredible — the Beef & Cheese empanada was made with slow-cooked pulled beef and real cheese, the Oxtail was seasoned and tender, and the dough tasted freshly made. Even the sides were flavorful and clearly made with care.

Fast forward to tonight after about...

I had to give service a 4 star only because they can be mad busy, and I waited a whole hour for my food after being preorder online. But that didn’t stop me from coming back lol. The food is AMAZING 🤩 there was NOTHING on the menu that I did not like. If yall want some good eats then this is the place to be .
