Food arr hot. All of the empanadas were tasty, especially the beef and cheese and chicken bacon ranch.

While the empanadas themselves are yummy, the rest of the meal leaves much to be desired. For the Any 2 Empanadas with Rice and Beans, Sweet Plantain, and Fountain Drink 16 oz the plantains were like leather or jerky, and the rice and beans were overcooked and underseasoned. I ordered the Oreo Empanada and requested that the powdered sugar and chocolate sauce be removed, it arrived with both on it.

The empanadas are delicious however the Guava & Cream Cheese Empanada is way too sweet and there was too much guava and little to no cream cheese. The plain Chicken Wings had no seasoning at all.

I was looking forward to this really bad. The rice and beans were good as well as the plantains. BUT the empanadas were a total disaster. The pork and chicken were spoilt they were sour. the broccoli and cheese one smelled like it was in the refrigerator for a very long time.

The Traditional Beef empanadas, the green sauce and the red sauce are very tasty.
