Ordered empanadas through Uber eats and had to call the store twice to check up on my order and the delivery. Once they arrive the cheese broccoli has a hole, chicken fajita has something smeared on it (chicken fajita only contains chicken cheese onions etc) so it can’t even be excused that it’s the filling and to top it off the cheese empanadas are not properly fried. You can see the difference in colors in the dough. We called again and the worker is trying to be smart asking “oh was the cheese hard” “if you want them burnt that’s another thing” … I’ve ordered from mamas multiple times through Uber eats and in person and have seen the same girl be nasty with other customers. I never leave reviews but this was worth leaving, save your time and go else where

Ordered through Uber eats and while I completely understand having to pay for EXTRA sauce, every other mamas empanadas I’ve ordered from at least provides a couple. The provided none and that’s completely unacceptable. Do better.

I happened to be craving empanadas when I was passing by this place. I am really glad I stopped to check it out! Their empanadas taste phenomenal! I got the pizza, chicken, chicken fajita, guava and cheese, and sweet plantain and cheese. Each were very flavorful and I will definitely drive out here again!

Have pretty good empanadas but now questioning the sanitation or safety. As I was eating, I found a metal material that seemed to be from a Brillo pad or whatever form of cleaning tool. (I’m assuming) it was fried into my empanada…I pulled it out to examine..that would’ve been very bad to eat…unsure how I feel they went to basically a 5 to 1-2 from my experience.

★★★★★ 5.0 Paulina Armstrong · Mar 2023

My first visit to Mama’s Empanadas was great. I ordered five because I’m unable to simply order just one empanada. They all were delicious and freshly made. I will definitely be back again for some more delicious empanadas.
