I'm not sure when they opened but they are local right in town in Mohegan Lake right off of Route six. I ordered a bunch to try out including the seafood, the lobster, grilled eggplant, eggplant and roasted red pepper, chicken marsala and the Ruben. I'm currently sitting in bed and enjoying the rest of them and I can definitely say these are truly awesome.If you are a fan of empanadas, they have such an array to choose from, and even some vegetarian options. If you like dessert, they have those too! All I can say is I will definitely be coming back here again and again and I hope that they can stay in business and I will be telling everyone I know to check them out

Empanada Mania 62 S. Washington Ave…read more Bergenfield NJ 07621 Angus Beef Bacon Cheeseburger Cuban Sweet Thai Chicken Spinach & Feta On the Southern part of Washington Avenue is a Latin American spot that specializes in homemade empanadas. Owner Galo and Manager Felipe introduced me to a variety of the signature product. Check out the outer layers of these crispy empanadas. If you think they look this good on the outside, wait until you see the inner fillings! Angus Beef: This original version of this folded hot pastry is packed with plenty of angus beef along with sautéed peppers & onions. Bacon Cheeseburger: This may have a similar appearance to the previous empanada, but do not be deceived. Imagine having a juicy succulent bacon cheeseburger in a crunchy shell in lieu of a hamburger roll. Cuban: Here's a perfect variation of the classic Cuban sandwich. The pork was smoked for several hours and it also includes ham and mozzarella cheese. Sweet Thai Chicken: It's time to try some Thai. The sweet thai chili sauce mixed in this Asian style empanada has the perfect blend of heat and spice. Spinach & Feta: If happen to be a vegetarian or If you just need a break from meat and poultry, the spinach & feta is a must try! As a bonus, these two secret sauces are fantastic supplements for your meat pies! Dunk away in the house made red hot sauce or if you are craving thousand island base with some top secret ingredients then go for the pink sauce. As another bonus, there is a state of the art coffee machine for hot beverages such as expresso, or cappucinno. All in all, each empanada was paradise. When I next return I'm looking forward to exploring their other empanadas as well as the side dishes. #empanadamania #empanadas #cuban #angusbeef #baconcheeseburger #SweetThaiChicken #spinachandfeta #LocalBusiness #foodstagram #eats #njfoodie #localspots #foodreviews

I've heard very good things the past 14 years about Empanada Mania…read more An award winning food truck, a catering business, and this tiny storefront producing big flavors. Street parking; only a few seats to eat inside. Basically a To Go place. These empanadas were awesome!! Big & stuffed with a very nice crispy, fried shell. ( they offer mini sized empanadas too) There are many options of Savory fillings, but I wish they had more "sweet\dessert" types. Which brings me to my favorite: the Guava & Mozzarella Cheese empanada... Best one I've ever had. For upcoming St. Patricks Day (for a limited time) they have -- The Reuben- filled with Smoked Corned Beef, Swiss Cheese & Sauerkraut. EMPAN-TASTIC! Wish I had a beer. -the Cuban Pork empanada made with an 8-hours smoked pork, with ham and mozzarella was very good, but I wasn't a big fan of the Sweet Thai Chicken empanada with, sweet Thai chili sauce, scallion and cilantro.. Maybe I was full... The fries are old school. Reminded me of boardwalk fries. Some a little greasy. Some a little overcooked & crunchy.. So if you like empanadas, you need to give this place a shot.

My sister in law, husband, and I called the place to request a manager to contact us. Nobody reached out. We then went back to the restaurant with the raw chicken to show them exactly what had been served and eaten. They issued a refund, but completely dismissed our concerns. They refused to have a manager speak with us, either in person or over the phone, and showed very little concern or empathy for the situation. Due to the seriousness of this concern, we were adamant about contacting a manager. We persistently requested for the staff to contact management/the owner. Our number was provided and management never called. Finally, the owner Pia came... with a smirk on her face. The owner was extremely disrespectful, dismissive and unprofessional. There was a severe lack of accountability. To make matters worse, the owner who came out after us laughed as she drove away. The way this situation was handled was incredibly disappointing and unprofessional. Serving raw chicken is serious enough but the complete lack of concern afterward made the experience even worse. I would not recommend this restaurant.

Once again, I wasn't looking for anything--yet I walked out already planning my next visit. It was…read morea lazy Saturday, and my wife was craving Avena. I figured I'd also grab my favorite handheld snack: an empanada. This is a small, no-frills counter-service spot with empanadas on display, a counter for fresh salads and juices, and a cooler leading into the kitchen. After a friendly "good morning,"we ordered the Avena, and I went all-in on empanadas: carne de res molida, pollo con queso, pizza, pepperoni pizza, and pollo. She bagged them up, and the moment she handed me the warm bag, the smell hit me--fresh, fragrant, and impossible to resist. I could hardly wait to dig in. On the side, I loaded up on their pink sauce and hot sauce (both highly recommended). As soon as we got home, I grabbed the carne empanada first. The crust was perfectly fried--crispy yet still doughy, and the filling was so flavorful I immediately made everyone at the table try a bite. The same went for the chicken, chicken with cheese, pizza, and pepperoni empanadas. The dough was consistently delicious--some flaky and soft, others crispier--but every single one was a winner. My only regret? Not buying more. This place nailed consistency across 5 flavors, and that's why I'll be back. 5/5 stars.

Since both my wife and I love empanadas we walked in and gave it a try. The inside of the shop wasn't too big and in all honesty I don't remember much about it other than a heated display case full or empanadas and a place to order. After looking at the display case on this morning I ultimately decided to have one ham and cheese, one pizza and one pepperoni and cheese. Now I know those last two aren't traditional flavors but I wanted to give some to my twins and figured that they might enjoy it. In any case the worker plucked my empanadas out of the display and we were on our way only $6 lighter in our pockets. My first bite of the empanada really showed off the dough which I loved as it was light and flaky. The fillings on the inside were good too and both my wife and I enjoyed all of them with my favorite being the pepperoni and cheese. The bottom line for me is that I would absolutely return here again in the future. I really enjoyed the crust of the empanadas and also thought that the fillings were good as well!

The fries tasted like they were refried from earlier in the day or even the day before. The chicken was rather salty but edible. The fish also tasted like it was reheated from another day, maybe even microwaved. Not exactly sure but it sure did not taste fresh! My Wife and I were very disappointed as we spent $50+ dollars to eat lunch from this spot and it was subpar. That's the risk you take when trying something new tho. The plantains were the best thing we got from this place. The spinach and cheese empanadas are loaded with too much cumin! It was an immediate no from my first and only bite! In conclusion, it is safe to say the empanadas are decent enough but as far as anything else, I wouldn't recommend it. We will not be returning to this establishment.
