Sometimes they take too long but the empanadas are delicious. Make sure to get with red/green hot sauce , and try the Empanda de Maduro y Queso , basically Plantains & Cheese (w/ powdered sugar on top)!

Chelsea

new smores empanada is amazing! The perfect blend of chocolate and melted marshmallows mixed with graham crackers ! It's one of those most expensive empanadas on the menu, but totally worth the $1.75!

funky flavor

If you are into some fried goodness here is your place. They have astonishing amounts of flavors into different types of empanada doughs . You can have sweet and savory. From traditional do Dearing.

I love it...when im not overweight tho. Otherwise, this is the (guilty) spot. Too many flavors, feels like some wheel of fortune shit but always fun to find a new fav flav...just like women lol

Amazing Empanadas , only like 50 kinds though, have fun picking! More importantly pick your sauce! Salsa Verde/Rojo/Rosada? A little pink and a lot of green pica for me please! Get Hawaiiana as dessert

Racky Ross

Try the cheeseburger , cheese (made with corn ), chicken and spicy meat . Also try the muzzarepa. Cheap and tasty.

Matthew Caldecutt

It's a local chain (I saw another on Roosevelt Avenue), but it's great. I wish I was hungry enough for more than just two.

The chicken parmigiana wheat flour empanadas are so good! The corn flour ones are crunchier than the wheat ones . The green sauce is slightly spicy and delicious.

Try the Mac and Cheese Empanada ($1.25). "Elbow pasta is mixed with a cheesy sauce that, depending on who you are, will channel either your inner child or inner stoner." Read more

Better variety than the competition across the street. Great service, friendly staff

You can get their empanadas baked if you like. A great option if you're trying to eat healthier/better.

Love the corn empanadas the best, esp.the beef ones. Fiance prefers the wheat ones . They are ALL delish

Chris Cloud

If you can't find any parking nearby, park across the street at the Rite-Aid parking lot . Go in for a few minutes and then leave to pick up your order when it's ready.
