Melina's Empanadas

I tried out Melina's Empanadas off Rt. 100 today. It's an attractive place, family friendly, very welcoming and run by a very nice couple. Location is off Rt 100 across from WNZF Radio (not on the main drag, but in the building behind). I brought home three empanadas to try: Chicken, Beef and Cheese, and Strawberry Cheesecake, plus a side of sweet plantains. Prices are reasonable and everything is homemade. the empanadas are definitely the best I've had locally. They're open Tuesday thru Saturday, 11 am - 5 pm. You can order online and they're also on DoorDash. Give them a try!

First of, Melina is absolutely awesome. You can tell she really cares about the quality of her food and her customers! I ordered the plantains and alcapurrias and it was the best ones I’ve ever had. I ordered a few different ones and they were all amazing but my favorite was the shrimp. So fresh and so much flavor. The Chicken Alfredo was good but it could’ve been a little more creamy, other than that this is place is an absolute 10! So much meat inside too.

Amazing empanadas! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and well prepared. Friendly staff and great service. I’ll definitely come back.

Very delicious food!!! The staff is super friendly and nice. Ive only done take out, but im sure the dine in would be a great experience too! If you love empanadas this is your one stop shop!

Happened to be in this area. Looked up vegan options and this location was an option showing a vegan empanada. This option was not on the menu on the wall. Being my first time there tried asking person working about it and got a pickup bag stuck in my face while speaking. No one was inside waiting for anything. Moved the bag out of my face and it was placed back in my face. I walked out. Great first & last impression.
