Customer Reviews
Great place to grab a quick bite. Many different options. My fav was the buffalo chicken and the Cuban sandwich empanada. They have a great hit sauce to put on top. Staff was friendly and very helpful.
Had a Great Experience here. The Dessert Empanada was the highlight. Very pricey at $3 per empanada, but they do deliver a quality product. You can have your dessert empanada hot or cold. I had cold. The flaky casing was perfect with a good amount of filling..I ate one in the car and immediately went back in to bring 6 more home. The Beef empanada was off the charts as well. I will be back for sure. Great job.
The empanadas were fantastic ! They have ample amount of choices. I decided to go with the buffalo chicken which was great- totally stuffed with shredded chicken & buffalo sauce. I also went for the bacon, egg& cheese which I wasn’t toooooooo sure about but ended up LOVING it. My boyfriends go to choice is the Philly cheese steak && chicken / cheese. Awesome spot! The empanadas are heated up and placed into a to go box & bag. They also have seating if you wanted to enjoy your lunch / snack inside! We also ordered the lemonade which was perfectly sweetened & flavorful. I’ll definitely drop back here for lunch again soon & try a couple different types !!!
I love empanadas so why not start my cheat day with some. When I arrived there was only street parking but I found a spot right away. When I walked in there was someone ahead of me but when I got to the counter I asked questions and the server was very informative. I decided to go with the buffalo chicken empanada and beef empanada. She told me I can add a drink for the same price so I went with the lemonade. It only came to about $5.35 which is a bargin. When I got home I put the items away with plans to eat the next day. Who has empanadas for breakfast? I do, because it's my cheat day. I dug in and they were really good. My favorite was the beef empanada. The lemonade was so good. I will definitely be back!
I was really excited about this place and their skinny Cuban. But I started eating it and realized the chicken was raw. I'm pregnant and freaking out now. I called and the girl on the phone apologized but that was it
