Really tasty empanadas and a large selection of sweet and savoury. My favourite is the nutella empanada . Make sure to ask for bake not fried. All the flavour without the grease!

Ernesto Gutierrez

If you are in the area this is a must. Baked empanadas are the way to go. Baked on the spot, guaranteed always fresh.

Tejash Shah

Amazing empanadas ! Plenty of vegetarian options . Try the Greek, Black bean & cheese , and the Fig & Cheese with Caramel sauce !!

Denise Cozier

I love that they have so many corn flour empanadas . The sausage and beef&potato were great. Love the price point!

Tony Xerri

I can't hate this place. I should, but when you're drunk AF and need something to eat, 8 empenadas sounds like a good idea. Your stomach will disagree the next day, but damn it's worth it.

Frank  Valletutti

Cheap and fantastic! The Hawaiian is a must have.

Thomas C

Chicken Fajita is always good and the sangria was better than it had any right to be. Pieces if apple was the way to go.

Aaron Hatton

Best empanadas ever! Be sure to order ahead as it gets busy

Greek, USA, Chicken Parm so far are my faves. Yet so many choices...the line up always may change....damn they're good !!

Stephanie Avilés

Baby Portobello baked wheat was amazing - juicy! Get the spicy green sauce for a kick

Great prices! 2 empanadas + soda for less than $4

Harlem’s Hungry

I was expecting s more home cooked taste from their menu but the generic versions can pass. They should add beer to the menu for a easier grab in customer flow.

Sarah Lambino

Takes a few minutes to cook up, but worth it. Get the broccoli and cheese .

Shannon Donnelly

Peanut butter and Nutella is out of this world.

Donia

Those sangria slushies are boozy !
