I love their Tres Leche cake, which is mouth-watering and moist. The restaurant is small but offers unique and original-flavor empanadas. The Tres Leche is sold in slices or whole cakes. Their staff is friendly and polite, creating an inviting atmosphere. Please go and support this small business.

Empanada city offers plenty of options of tasty empanadas. We went on a weekday for lunch and it was relatively empty. They have a few seats inside. I ordered 3 empanadas, the ground beef, cuban, and ropa vieja, and enjoyed them all. The exterior was crispy, and there was a generous portion of filling inside each empanada. I appreciated how each empanada was labeled so you know which one you are eating. The avocado sauce was a bit too creamy for me and I didn't taste the avocado. They advertise the empanadas as 4-5 inches but they felt closer to 3 inches. Regardless, it is a great place for a filling meal at a decent price point!

Had these empanadas for the first time last night. This felt good. I walked in and was immediately greeted warmly. Empanadas were the perfect ratio of crust to filling. Great, unique flavors. The shrimp was slightly spicy with a wonderfully flavorful sauce. The Pastelon and chicken were quite good as well. How amazing. Highly recommend the chimichurri sauce also. Can't wait to go back.

Great Empanadas!! So delicious I can not get enough, every time I try something new and their sauces are a banger. The aesthetic of the store is really great if you go in person. The service is great if you opt for delivery.

I have been to Empanada City on many occasions and every empanada I have tried is crunchy, warm, and full of flavor. My favorite is the S'mac and chicken which is filled with buffalo chicken and mac & cheese. It is always flavored to perfection. There is a vast list of vegetarian options with various fillings such as spinach and ricotta. I recently discovered that they carry apple pie empanadas. They are apple pie fillings with an empanada crust. The apple pie has a light cinnamon flavor and is full of apples. The empanadas are made to order and are always warm. They have a fill beverage menu and my favorite is the limeade; its topped with a fresh orange slice and blueberries. I would definitely recommend trying the limeade, its sweet, sour, and fresh. The shop has ~10 seats and I've never had any problem finding a place to sit. The empanadas can take up to 15 minutes to be prepared because they are made to order, but I think it is truly worth the wait.

So delicious. I tried the Americana and the Pastelón. Service is fast + restaurant is so cozy. Americana HIGHLY recommend if you enjoy onions on your burger. Pastelón Great balance of sweet + slavery. Good to know: The sauce makes the empanada. I wish it was t 25 cents per sauce but it's worth it!

Hello, fellow Latina here! Decided to stop in with my kids for a tasty treat after a dentist appointment. So happy I did, we had a variety of empanadas. My son had the s'mac n cheese, my daughter had the spinach and ricotta (tasted it, very savory would order for myself) and veggie plantain, my youngest had the Americana and the ropa vieja, I also had the ropa vieja and the shrimp empanada. We give them all a thumps up, I love the outer crust. Everything came out hot and fresh, perfectly crunchy. The shrimp empanada is very flavorful and so was the ropa vieja. Nice portion of filling in both (some places skimp). I had the fruit Limeade which I really enjoyed and my daughter had the passion fruit limeade which she thought was better than mine (I don't agree). The one item we weren't impressed with was the pina colada, my son ordered it and it was too coconuty, very rich like milk. The space itself is very cozy, everything looked clean and the staff was very pleasant. They were patient (I was with indecisive children) with smiles on their face. The one draw back about the experience, it was a little too warm in the store. But I'll just write it off, because it's the warmest day in spring so far! Don't be shy and come on by!

Three snaps yes yes yes! I was looking for some juice yesterday dehydrated as usual and no breakfast at like 1pm. Google said one place I walked 2 blocks and they didn't have juice I almost cried. But-but I got it together rechecked the map and chose a quest to this place. I ended up calling ahead to ensure they had juice and to figure out the directions because the map was somehow inaccurate. And baby! They had some amazing things! Morir soñando 5/5 Ropa vieja 5/5 juicy filling perfect Pastéllon 5/5 my sister ate it up Menu 5/5 crazy options, quick service, clean space. The young lady behind the was super nice over the phone and in person. I saw the catering options and would absolutely choose them in the future like YES!
