I stumbled upon an a local influencer's video highlighting this place and I decided to stop in…read more Don't be fooled; while the address says "white plains" I'd say this place is actually located in North White Plains. You'll find El Artesano Empanads in the Sir John Plaza next to Violetta Nails. While tiny, they offer some outside seating along with two high top tables inside. Guys...the food was DELICIOUS. I ordered their viral steak sandwich, churros, and of course, their empanadas. The steak sandwich was INCREDIBLE. I intended to share it with my fiancé however he's not eating bacon and they were not able to make a sandwich without it (Which was not a problem for me, so I was happy to have this sandwich all to myself ). Expert tip: add cheese. It was incredibly flavorful and seasoned perfectly! For the empanadas I decided to get a box of 6, as they have SO MANY FLAVORS! (See video). All were delicious and we were given a yummy chipotle and chimichurri sauce to dip. $ of course we had to get dessert; so we got the churros that were served with a chocolate and dulce de leche sauce. INCREDIBLE!! The lady who took my order was kind and helpful as I navigated all the choices. I am so happy I found this little gem so close to my house! I will definitely be back soon!

I had tried most of the baked empanadas: beef, corn, spinach, heart of palms and they are good…read more Definitely the flavor has changed since the opening. Today I received a different side sauce: red pepper and jalapeño, which are totally different than the one they had before. Previously the side sauce was more similar to chimichurri. Though the new sauce is not common to the flavors of South America, I like better. My favorite is the jalapeño and is spicy. They take a few minutes to warm up the empanadas and the times I was there it was not busy. The indoor seating area is small and still seems cozy. I usually order to go. I believe when the weather is warmer they also have some outdoor seating. They also offered pizza before but I learned today they don't anymore.

Hello For those who…read moreknow me a 5 is shocking but really can't think of anything wrong not to give a 5. I was in town making sales calls and my brother told me he heard good things about it The place is a total hole in the wall and I mean that in the best way it is small and clean and very cool The staff was so friendly and took me right away I was in a rush so just ordered 2 tacos I got the steak and the pork Al pastor tacos They were made hot and fresh to order and OMG maybe one of the best I ever had. Simple but delicious just the way I like it If in the area and want a no frills but tasty taco it is a must

Drove past this place often but finally decided to try it out. Got one pupusa to go as a snack…read moresince we already ate lunch. Waitress recommended the pupusa revuelta. Wife and I ate it when we got home and DANG... so good. i've only had a few pupusas in my life but it was so delicious. the thick outer tortilla was perfectly crisp but chewy and the filling was so flavorful. so.... after a few hours, we went back to eat dinner there lol We got some more pupusas but the revuelta def was the best. We also got the baleada con todo which was so good! (had to look up what a baleada was) i'm not big on beans but all the ingredients were delicious and worked well together. prices were very good too. doesn't feel like stressing your wallet to have a nice meal outside. service was great but food takes a bit to come out but overall, this place is amazing and we'll def be back.

The male owner was alright but not as friendly and extending as the female owner. There was no ambience as there were only three tables in the entire restaurant. I had the chicken chimichangas and it was decent; however, the chicken was cubed and hard and tasted like it was leftover from Chipotle's. Typically, the chicken in chimichangas is shredded and fresh. It wasn't here and I didn't like that it tasted processed and not fresh. The guacamole was absolutely delicious. My husband had the chicken quesadilla and my granddaughter and her boyfriend had shredded beef tacos which they said were tasty as well. The salsa was watery and the chips were fried too hard.

I am so happy this place opened up the street from me, these were the perfect Colombian empanadas…read more So beautifully balanced with their flavors. And I loved the yuca too. The only issue I really had was that the guacamole was overwhelmed by lime juice but I'll be back to try it again to see if that was a one time fluke. definitely want to try the guava and cheese and spinach and cheese too next time. I think my favorite was the beef one but I really liked all of them! The yucas fritas were sooooooo good.

Taste the Rainbow! A new empanada place has opened on Halstead Ave and we had to try it for lunch…read more The empanadas are Colombian style with the crust made from corn meal and baked. There is a big variety of fillings to choose from ($3.75 ea) or you can mix and match them for 1/2 dozen ($22) and whole dozen ($40) boxes. We gathered orders in the office and put in an order for 3 dozen (There is a 3.5% credit card charge). Parking on Halstead was easy and so was pick up. The very nice lady proudly presented our empanadas to us, packed our boxes in bags and loaded us up with dipping sauces. Each flavor empanada is color coded, so we were able to sort them out for each person's order. The coloring is natural, so you don't have to be worried about artificial dyes. Empanadas: Beef (Carne) - Red (Rojo) Chicken (Pollo) - Yellow (Amarillia) Mango Pork (Cerdo con Mango) - Black (Negro) Guava & Cheese - Pink (Rosada) Spinach & Cheese - Green (Verde) Chorizo & Cheese - Purple (Morado) Blueberry Goat Cheese - Black / White (Negro y Blanca) Vegan Black Bean & Sweet Bell Pepper (Frijol Negro) - Orange (Naranja) Vegan Chorizo & Sweet Potato (Chorizo Vegano) - Purple / White (Morado/Negra) Vegan Beef & Plantain (Mofango Vegano) - Red / White We were given 3 dipping sauces: Signature Hot Sauce (Orange) Cilantro Lime Crema (Light Green) Grilled Tomatillo (Green) My favorite is the spicy orange sauce, but other people said it was too hot, but perfect for me. It paired very well with Beef & Chicken, but was excellent with the Chorizo & Cheese. There are other menu items like Arepas con Queso, Tostones, Maduros & Yuca Fries to try, but 3 empanadas for lunch was plenty and I'm taking 3 home for my familia to try.
