    a plate of empanadas and chips
    Rachel W.

    This food truck is delicious! The empanadas were fresh and packed with so much flavor. If you go I would recommend getting the cranberry chipotle salsa, it's so good! They also had a pumpkin pie empanada that was insane and the perfect fall treat! Definitely check where the food truck will be and try them out!

    Again, I stumbled upon this restaurant by shear luck. It is a trove of good foods…read more The server, her name was Edith, she was most helpful. I was immediately greeted and seated upon my arrival. Actually, I was able to choose which table that I wanted to dine at. I started off with a fresh cup of coffee. It was piping hot, which is the only way that I like it. After placing my order I enjoyed seeing the interactions between the diners and their family. Also, the people that came into the restaurant after I was seated were greeted with such warmth and genuine love from the staff that it took me back in time when life was less complicated. When life was a simple time for everyone. A time when the cellphone wasn't even an idea in the minds of our great innovators. This establishment is not located on the main streets, it's located around the corner of a major road but obscured from view. So surprise number one is that....... They had a revolving door of clientele during my dining experience there. More visitors came and went than I see in main stream restaurant facilities. That in itself should tell you something about not only the food but about the people that work there. After I ordered I must be truthful, the food was not brought out immediately but that was truly a good thing which I will share why that is soon. First, the observation from an old man saw every occupied table with friends and family visiting with each other. Not a cell phone in sight, no disruption from a ringing phone. No inconsiderate cell phone man talking at a noise decibel that makes one feel they are sitting with you in a small enclosure. It was beautiful, nobody hurrying, nobody uptight and most importantly, No one ignored in favor of a cell phone texter or talker. It was undivided attention across the entire spectrum. That's good old day memories for me. When my meal arrived it was well worth the wait and now I will share with you why I don't mind waiting a little longer for a meal while dining in a small restaurant. It's because the order is not pre-made sitting under heat-lamps or inside of stainless steel containers placed over a heating source. Oh no, my breakfast was being made after I placed the order. That my friends adds a whole new dimension to good, quality, well prepared menu items. If I had to rate the food, ambiance and service on a 5 star rating, 5 being the highest praise, then hands down, I give them 10 stars

    Great food! But, if you want to order pupusas for takeout, make sure you do it way ahead of time…read morebecause it can take a little long. Other than that, I love this place!

    I was really excited to try their empanadas, especially given that they're gluten-free! Some…read moreempanadas are wheat based, but these are based from corn. I ordered a beef and shrimp empanada. The total was $14, and it's great that you get to mix and match any two for $14. I was a little bit, disappointed by how salty the empanadas were. I felt like I was sprinkling lime juice in using the cream sauce, just to dull down the saltines rather than for the flavor. The beef and cheese empanada was a bit oily, but less salty, whereas the shrimp empanada was quite salty. I was, however, quite impressed by the yucca fries. Those were very well seasoned, and had a sweetness to them. That was really pleasant! I definitely wanted to like this place a lot more than I did, especially given the hype around them.

    Caveat: I had Chivanada at a Yelp event. Not a paid endorsement, but like to be open about things…read morelike this. One of the most colorful food trucks in the Nashville area, this is an Columbian empanada paradise. My understanding is the empies are all gluten free, as well, which is a bonus. Well done beef empanada. One of the best I have had in my life (the best being Empa Mundo in Irving, Texas). Seems like a simple thing, but the empie, the unique mix of beef, gouda, and spices, and the sauce just work. Simple comfort food, but well done. I would also consider adding on an Avo-Tomato salad or Platano Maduro to round out the meal. Drinks also very authentic for the type of food. Look at their social media to see where they are this week. Basement East is one of their normal haunts.
