They offered a wide selection of empanadas and with great quantity. The taste of the empanadas were great although the price for them were a little high for my liking. What I did enjoy was that they offered to heat it so I can eat it on the go as well as they filled them up nicely. I particularly liked the chicken one the most, the beef felt the most filling, while the pulled pork one tasted like a classaic pulled pork sandwich stuff in an empanada. They weren't dry tasting and had good depth of flavor.The sauces were extra cost however was a nice compliment. I would come back again if convinient and in the mood.

Opened just two years ago in a little strip mall consisting of 2 stores off S Main St in Lodi, I came to Empanadas NJ Cafe as a first-timer for lunch. Upon entering this cozy shop with 3 tables for dining, I was greeted by the staff at his family-owned/family-run establishment specializing in Argentinian empanadas. These, put simply, are savory baked hand-held pastries. A large selection menu featured everything from Beef, Chicken, Ham & Cheese to Apple Pie, Hawaiian, and Guava & Cheese. One can't go wrong with any of the options. After speaking with Lucas, the owners' son, he recommended their popular Beef, Chicken, and Cuban Empanadas. They arrived hot. Each empanada was identified with the initials on the left side border. The shells were not greasy. They were packed full with the flavorful fillings with the accompanied Chimichurri sauce and were delicious. The price was comparable to the area. The staff was friendly and helpful; the service was fast. They've gotten so popular that a second location has been announced in Boonton. It was worth every minute, which I can recommend.

A few days ago The Food Truck Operator for Zoelily had posted a video of one of his regular customers going off on a verbal assault towards him after a dispute of how many "free" hot sauce containers should be "free" Apparently the customer bought 2 Empanadas so he received 2 "free" hot sauces, but when he wanted more than 2 that's when Zoelily told him "I will have to charge you for the extras" and that's when it seems the customer replied with a $100 bill which our Empanada Truck Operator couldn't make change for sending the customer into a derogatory filled rant which Zoelily captured on video and posted on his Facebook account. Now, unfortunately due to the Covid-19 related revenue losses the Empanada Mobile had been behind on It's payments and the bank had repossessed the Truck after learning of it's whereabouts from the posted video which has made it's way to the local TV News. My understanding is that a GoFundMe account is presently in the works to bring back the beloved Empanada Mobile. I'll keep You Posted!!

One can stuff them with any number of things. On this Nochebuena (Christmas Eve), while in the neighborhood of Totowa, my partner and I decided to pay a visit to this establishment for takeout as first-timers. Opened 6 years ago, Mama Ana's Empanadas is a family-owned restaurant specializing in empanadas located off of Union Blvd. Greeted by the staff upon arrival, the interior vibe was not only festive but cozy and casual with seating for 20 patrons. From the menu, one can choose up to 18 different kinds of empanadas, from classic beef or chicken to cheesesteak and Cuban; either have them baked or fried. They also offer Latin" bowls, salads, and sandwiches. We decided on the cheesesteak empanada and broccoli & cheese empanada, as well as the Chicharrones de Cerdo bowl, accompanied by rice and beans with a side of maduros (sweet plantain). The cheesesteak was tasty. The broccoli came with mozzarella, which was salty. The cheddar would have been better. The empanada dough was hot, flaky, and huge. Chicharrones de cerdo bowl was served piping hot and hit the spot. The pork wasn't hard but had great flavor and chew. The price was reasonable due to its size and portion. The service was slow, but we know the food was made fresh. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially Ada and Yame. We can recommend this place.
