• 4/28/25EL TORO SHREDDED CHICKEN
These empanadas are the best I have ever eaten! The El Toro is my favorite, the flavor is incredible. Their empanadas are over stuffed, fried perfectly not greasy, extremely affordable and they reheat nicely in the oven. Best Door Dash find!

• 6/19/25there's a lot of filling inside making it well worth the price. the CHEESESTEAK filling wasn't what I expected but deliciously cheesy and flavorful. PERNIL was exactly what I expected and also delicious. the MAC & CHEESE unexpectedly had bacon inside giving an interesting flavor. would definitely order again!

• 2/2/26I got the SANCOCHO DE COLA (32oz) and it was 10/10. SO much meat! I'm Colombian and have eaten this soup my whole life and theirs was amazing! The VIAGRA CORN was decent, good for one bite but not much flavor and didn't care to finish it. The CUBAN empanada was incredible definitely ordering it again

• 11/2/24Everything was amaing. We chose a couple of flavors. The meats are tender and so juicy. The desserts we chose were the perfect sweet and savory combos. They're full to the brim unlike most other places. Worth every penny. Will definitely be ordering again and again.

• 11/26/25Everything was delicious and fresh. Each Empanada is filled to the brim, making them worth the price. my only negative was the yellow rice. It was a bit small and the actual rice was dry. Other than that, the empanadas made me want to come back for more. The VIAGRA in particular had fresh seafood and I hope it returns (it disappeared off of the website only HOURS after I ordered it).
