Empanadas
V U.

Decent empanadas with some non traditional flavors. Tried the guava and cheese and the spinach and feta. Both were delicious as a light snack. $4 each so nothing too expensive. Lots of vegan or vegetarian options too which is a plus. They also serve drinks like smoothies and sodas. Staff is friendly, would be back to try more flavors.

The empanadas were really good - seasoned well, without being too spicy! The service was great- the cashier was very friendly and attentive. He made sure he even described on our bag which was what. The service was also very fast. I was in and out in minutes, with the empanadas having been warmed up and everything. The ambiance was very serene. It is quiet in there and has dimmed lighting, which I appreciated. I don't like the lights being right in your face. All in all, this was a really great place! I'd definitely come back! :)

Cuban and chicken empañadas!! Yumm!!

Delicious!! Amazing!! These empanadas are a pleasant change to the tradition hard shell ones. These are flaky and tasty. I just keep shaking my head, just when I thought you can't do anymore with empanadas.. boom this happens. I was greeted by a young lady with a warm smile and two different empanada assortments display. I automatically got the Cuban. The second was tough to decide. Finally picked chicken with house sauce and a tea. It's like biting into a soft flaky goodness with a lot of yummy stuffing. I think I might have another one. They are unbelievably good!! Yeah I'll stop fighting my urge. This a must try!!!

Eggplant (vegetarian) and Flaki (vegan) were so yummy!!

Place is a little sparse, and may look a little empty, but don't let that stop you from stopping by. I am used to empanadas primarily being meat or chicken based, but there are endless options here for not just the vegetarian, but the picky all plant-based vegan eater!! I'm a vegetarian but I was able to enticing meat flavors well suited for people in my family that aren't quite as snobby. The sauces they come with are addicting too!! Dee, the lady behind the register is super helpful and will make sure you leave satisfied. And if you're not satisfied after a few empanadas from here, well then you're on your own lol.

Different from the way us Dominicans make ours. These are baked not fried. But I must admit that the one Cuban Empanada I got was actually better and more flavorful than the sandwiches I get at the local Spanish restaurants. It should be illegal to pack that much flavor into a not so guilty pint size sandwich. The crust was buttery and complemented the filling. I was very impressed. As to not be greedy I only got one, should have gotten a second, but gives me a reason to come back. Staff was nice and friendly. Service with a smile. Oh BTW all orders are for takeout only. Due to covid you cannot each inside.

A little empanada place right in the heart of Bloomfield Ave. You cannot go wrong if you are in the area and craving a little snack. The empanadas are good here and there are so many different flavors to chose from. Upon walking towards the counter, all the different flavors are on display. I tried a few different flavors with a friend. The crust is nice and flaky (I prefer this over the hard shell ones). Empanadas are reasonably priced and they also have some dessert! Staff is friendly and food comes out quick :)

See all

Chicken+cheese and Nutella+banana were tasty but could definitely use more filling. Smaller portions than other places.

Just perfect empanadas and a wide range of options. Beef ones are my favorite and looking forward to trying them all.

Was passing by today on Labor day & thought I would stop by to try it. They were closed, no sign on the door or anything for the holiday.
