    Coming all the way from Massachusetts for an empanada may sound crazy but not when it’s this good! Most places you will find pre frozen empanadas or after you take your first bite it’s majority air and empty with hardly any meat …. But NOT here!! These empanadas are packed!! This new family owned business sits on the corner with a beautiful sign and must try food. I tried the chicken, chicken and cheese, beef, beef with cheese, apple pie, chicken wings and a Shepard pie ball and I had ZERO complaints!! This is a hidden gem that will soon shine bright!!

    Awesome taste! I was delighted to finally go in person to purchase empanada. My son introduced me to their empanada a few weeks ago when bringing some home. I recently went myself, the atmosphere was pleasant, the customer was great and friendly and I enjoyed the food. I'm definitely going back again.....I have to discipline myself!

    A wonderful family, exceptional customer service, and truly amazing food. Some of the nicest people I've ever met. You do have to purchase a box that comes with two of the same empanadas (no mix-and-match), but honestly, they're so delicious that it's worth it. The pricing is fair, and I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic, high-quality Spanish food.

    We had very low expectations because we saw this being featured on an IG food review and they claimed it was so good. But we had been let down multiple times. Well this one did not! The staff were very nice. The food was good lots of flavor. I will definitely recommend this to everyone I know. Lots of flavor and they were super warm and crunchy. We had the beef chicken and cheese empanadas and a chicken potato ball. The sauce and the mayo ketchup was a perfect add because we forgot to ask for some. We will definitely go again. The presentation of the packaging was perfect. It’s the small details! Also the slushy my son loved it! Yes it is pricey but remember they do have to make a profit. Annoying that you can mix and match.

    I ordered takeout and was blown away by the amazing customer service—super friendly and thoughtful. I got empanadas and rice, and both were absolutely delicious. As a surprise, they even included a free piece of flan, which was creamy and delicious! The food quality and service were outstanding. I’ll definitely be ordering again and highly recommend them!
