"The empanada dough was too thick for my liking. Empanada flavors we tasted included chicken; chicken and cheese; beef and cheese; spinach; Peruvian mac and cheese, which seemed like regular mac and cheese to us. Fried plantains are good. Dolce de lecce cookie was so-so. We ordered the dolce de lecce empanada too, which was better than the cookie. The yellow rice and chorizo didn’t taste homemade — when it comes to rice, if it tastes like I could have made it better, it’s a big let-down. We ordered chips and guacamole and didn’t select “extra guacamole,” and were a little disappointed by the size of the standard container, too."

We placed a large order of a variety of food. Unfortunately, we weren’t impressed.

Beef and cheesy chicken Empanadas came unseasoned on the inside. Green sauce was very good though. View menu

These are the best empanadas I have ever tried. The prices are very reasonable and they also serve homemade lemonade. Absolutely delicious!

The food was plentiful and cheap, but too salty. Parking: One has to look around for parking. Parking is available free on the street if you can find a spot

Amazing authentic food made fresh. I'm not really a guacamole person but this place makes me a fan of theirs! I recommend the platter for those that may not be sure what they wish to try, you'll definitely want to return and try more of everything...ifthere were more stars I'd add them as well! View menu

The empanadas were truly bad, worst I've ever had crust soft, meat flavorless. The rice and beans was just blah and the fried plantains were undercooked. All around not good food. I ended up tossing most of it. To top it off, the cashier was not too friendly and didn't seem to want to help me chose what to order. I rarely leave such a bad review, but I had to on this one.

The empanadas at this restaurant are fantastic. We tried the cabbage/chorizo empanada for lunch and it was delicious, while the Dulce de Leche empanada was rich and gooey. We enjoyed them so much that we ordered a variety for dinner. They reheated well in the air fryer and all the flavors - chicken, beef, and chicken/cheese - were excellent. However, we were not big fans of the tamales. The yellow sauce did not enhance the meal, but the cilantro sauce was superb.
