Empanada Mama Times Square (40th St)

WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH ok so the reggaeton and the El jefe were our favorites. but they were all very very good. green sauce FTW

We got the el toro which was oxtail with carrot and other veggies. I didn’t really like the sweetness of the maduros but the meat was pretty tender. It came out fresh hot as well. Small shop with a couple bar stools inside , saw lots of people getting food to go. Lots of interesting flavors to choose from.

I stopped by Empanada Mama with friends(group of 11 people) and decided to order empanadas to eat there and take some home. I tried the Hawaiian, two Viagra (seafood), and the Bombay empanada — and they were all delicious. They came out hot, crispy, and perfectly cooked, with generous fillings. For those curious, the Viagra empanada (seafood) includes imitation crab and shrimp, and it was really flavorful. All of the empanadas were well-seasoned and nicely stuffed, which made them very satisfying. The pricing felt fair at $4.80–$4.90 each, especially considering how full and hearty they are. Great value for the quality and portion. The staff was nice and courteous, making the experience pleasant overall. The only downside was that the wine is a bit overpriced, but that didn’t take away f

Went here for pickup on a Sunday night. The food was so good, I’m a vegetarian and they had good choice and flavors for the empanada’s. Spinach and Cheese and Veggie - both of them made with wheat and corn flour. Highly recommend!

Popped in here for breakfast and got the Cheese, Spinach & Cheese, and Eggplant Parmesan. Food came out fast and fresh, and the empanadas were filled generously. My favorites were the eggplant and cheese and the red sauce.
