I was craving some solid, local empanadas—especially classic cheese and meat options—and Empanada City kept showing up as a top pick on UberEats. I checked Google reviews too, and they were really strong, which gave me confidence to try it. I ordered a cheese, BBQ chicken, ground beef, and sweet sausage (cooked with onions and peppers) empanada. Everything arrived fresh, warm, and generously filled (like, I was surprised lmao). The pastry was especially good—soft, slightly crispy, and clearly made fresh. The cheese, ground beef, and sweet sausage were all delicious and flavorful. My only minor letdown was the BBQ chicken—I was excited for that BBQ flavor, but it tasted more like regular chicken. Still good, just not what I expected. Each empanada was about $4, which honestly felt fair f

The empanadas are a super convenient hand held size that cooked perfectly and super filled. My favorite is the shrimp. Perfection. Don't get me wrong I've tried several others there however the shrimp is the show stopper. With that said y'all do need give a little more love on sauces. We should get at least especially if I order more than two or three at a time.

Yum!! Perfectly seasoned, cooked to order, overstuffed goodness so it will take a few minutes. Cozy seating area if you want to enjoy, hot and fresh. The cons... they charge for sauce, you get none if you don't order it... $.30 each. I got the avocado and hot sauce, decent but nothing fancy. They have plastic cutlery, no knife, just forks. They have rice and bean dishes with your choice of protein, but if you're traveling, and you like your beans separate, they will not pack it separately. So I didn't order it. They're not very accommodating, but they were still good. I’ll be back, rates 7.5/10 This shrimp empanada is my #1 favorites.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Iveliz Hernandez · Jan 2026

I am a regular customer at Empanada City and frequently visit because I enjoy the mac & cheese empanada. I have consistently supported this business, often purchasing multiple empanadas at a time. Unfortunately, after becoming a regular customer, I began experiencing rude and unpleasant behavior from the staff. Customer service has been a major issue. The employees often come across as rude and unwelcoming. They are extremely strict about charging 30 cents for sauce, with no flexibility or appreciation for loyal customers. On one occasion, I had already paid for several empanadas and asked for a sauce, but it was denied unless I paid the extra 30 cents. This situation has happened more than once. In one instance, I had exactly 30 cents available on my card, but because an additional 4 ce

The empanadas are so good and flavorful. The guava and cheese is one of the best. It's like a dessert. They're not cheap with the filling either
