“ In my many visits I have yet to find a reason to take away a star. 2 things surprised me...they make a cuban sandwich as good or better than many latin markets and the flavor of their crab empanada is so spot on authentic they compare to some I've had in the carribean albeit they are smaller. Good place for a quick bite or sit outside and enjoy the weather. ”
“ Has a good experience here. Friendly customer service, quick food preparation, and food was fantastic. We had a Cuban sandwich, the broccoli and cheese empanada, and the guava and cheese empanada and everything was great!! ”
“ Offers and awesome quick bite for empanada lovers everywhere. Even if you are not a fan this place offers something for everyone. The beef and cheese is the classic, however multiple flavors allow for everyone to find a new favorite. The cuban sandwich is a delight as well. Multiple restaurants in the area. ”
“ Great place! I came to grab a couple empanadas for dinner. I had beef & cheese, crabmeat and a guava and cheese. All 3 were amazing, the guava cheese was the best! The guys in the drive through were friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend coming here ”
“ Dining at Mr. Empanadas with Ringo the bird was a riot! Picture a parrot squawking over a Cuban sandwich, trying to convince his feathered friends to ditch seeds for savory pork. The empanadas? A golden, flaky dream. The real challenge? Stopping Ringo from flying off with the leftovers. 10/10, would wing it again ”
“ This place is awesome! Delicious, affordable, efficient and never have messed up any orders! I love this place! Try the apple empanada for dessert! So good! Also, one more thing.... You have to ask for napkins and hot sauce if you want them because my order was just almost ruined without hot sauce for the crabmeat empanadas. :( ”
“ Good stuff. I've stopped at many Mr Empanada locations. Consistently dependable. Hot and good. The new Cuban sandwich is really good too. This one is tucked away in the shopping center, corner space. Easy to miss. It's worth the effort to find it. ”
“ Great as like a fast food option since it has a drive thru. I always call head, and my food is always hot. ”
