He gave us great recommendations from the menu and had a really good energy about him. We started with some guacamole and it was pretty tasty. But the fish tacos? They were some of the best fish tacos I've ever had. Maybe it's because they were thick pieces - not tiny cut up fish bits - and they were fresh and hot and crispy! The sauce on them was so good and packed a nice punch and the lime delivered a perfect amount of acid. These were stellar and I would come back for these any day. I thought the meal wouldn't get better, but then we all shared a Cuban sandwich and wow! It was better than some of the ones I've had in Miami. I was totally floored after this meal! We weren't expecting anything big, but this was bombastic, and I will definitely be recommending this place to everyone I know! The fact that the staff is so cool, the place is so cute, and the food is so good makes this an easy choice for a neighborhood hang out.

Doesn't take away from the delectable food and considerate service, especially Lucas and Orsi (at the bar) - they know what they're doing! The proprietor, George, is always on site - he is very involved and works hard. You can tell. For many New Yorkers the pandemic lasted but a few years; for bars, restaurants and cafes like George's .. COVID-19's effects still linger and make for a challenging time. Kudos to George for hanging in there, and much appreciation! Will be back next weekend for my virgin bellini (better tasting than the "real" thing) and delicious respite from this cruel, hard world. Thanks, guys!

A colleague wanted to get pizza, and we were going to take the train but as we walked to the train,…read morewe saw a sign for pizza. As we walked closer, we saw that it was Masa Empanadas. I remember visiting their Bushwick location in 2019. There was no dining in at this location--there was a table and two chairs outside. She ordered a cheese, and I order a pepperoni. The pizzas remind me of the Sicilian slices, they were square. She got empanadas but I'm not a fan of baked empanadas. The service was quick, and I like the pizza. My colleague also enjoyed her pizza but wasn't a fan of the empanada--she also prefers her empanadas to be fried. All in all, I would go back for pizza.

Truly some of the best empanadas you can eat…read more This past weekend was my second time running into Empanada Papa in the wild. This time, they had a stand up at Strong Rope Brewery in Red Hook, and it's a lifesaving addition over there. The lovely folks behind the stand are warm, welcoming, and ready to give you what you need. And what you need is carnitas. And beef and cheese. And surprisingly, the INCREDIBLE spinach and cheese. This last one kind of stole the show, and I'm almost always a meaty Petey. Basically, pair any empanada with some of their pineapple habanero sauce and you have a serious flavor bomb on your hands. Wash it down with some beer in a giant open, airy room? Perfection. My only concern is that Empanada Papa may have broken up with Empanada Mama? But as New Yorkers, we should just mind our own business, so I'm going to just keep it moving.

Something told me to get it and I don't even like shrimp. I really loved this. And the way the empanadas taste with the sauces, truly perfect together. I wish I got more. I also got the pabellon. This was also yum. I don't know the name of the orange sauce, but it paired really well with that one. Having a sweet plantain crust is a very interesting. It wasn't as durable as a regular empanada. But it did tasted really delicious. Recommend!

You can't go wrong with an empanada and these didn't disappoint. They had gf options so I went with…read morea few (in order of preference): - Sweet Plantain Pabellón was by far my favorite. The sweetness from the plantain mixed with the savory shredded beef was a magnificent combo - Corn Carne Mechada, similar to the above, the shredded beef was very flavorful - Corn Pollo, this was your basic chicken empanada so solid choice but nothing stood out, I wish it had cheese - Corn Pollo en Mole Rojo, I didn't really like the flavor profile and wouldn't order again They all came with sauces that were all so good and went very well with the empanadas. They had a spicy one, green one (avocado?) and pink (ketchup/mayo). The cashier was really nice and recommended some to try. They were out of the oxtail at the time. They fried up the empanadas fresh and were done pretty quickly. I do wish they would have labeled the empanadas so I knew what I was eating. The store is pretty small but there is seating and a bathroom. All of my friends enjoyed their empanadas as well and we would all go back!

OMG!! These…read moreempanadas are seriously the best tasting empanadas I ever had. Immediately I was going to rate them lower due to size and no labeling but the taste was truly made with lots of love. I ordered 4 via Ubereats, totaling roughly $24 with 3 sauces. I ordered the Chicken macaroni and cheese, Ropa Vieja, Americano and a Pastelon. Every single one of them were on point, warm and crispy. My only true complaint is that they're super small. Better for my calorie intake I guess lol. The meat was extremely well seasoned, cheese was melted, plantain was sweet. The edges were crispy and the flavors together were delicious. The avocado sauce is way too thick. It's more like a thick heavy cream. The pink sauce is your typical mayo ketchup. There is absolutely no way of knowing which empanadas are which. They need a better concept so that customers know especially if they're ordering as a group to share. I've never seen an empanada place not label their empanada. I read a google review from the owners saying they put it on the package on the bottom corner but that is a lie. It's not on the empanada itself or on the packaging. Overall I'm still ordering from here again : )

The cons... they charge for sauce, you get none if you don't order it... $.30 each. I got the avocado and hot sauce, decent but nothing fancy. They have plastic cutlery, no knife, just forks. They have rice and bean dishes with your choice of protein, but if you're traveling, and you like your beans separate, they will not pack it separately. So I didn't order it. They're not very accommodating, but they were still good. I'll be back, rates 7.5/10 This shrimp empanada is my #1 favorites.

My hunt for delicious empanadas continues this year as I canvas the neighborhood in search for little pockets of joy. I have been meaning to come here for a while, but I have not been able to pin down their exact hours. it was a beautiful breezy Saturday afternoon at the height of spring. My mood was to grab empanadas and sit on the hills of Sunset Park basking in the sunlight. I walked into the shop, which is very tiny and take out only. The ladies working at the counter were super friendly and accommodating, the empanadas were being made fresh and fried right in front of me. I opted for the beef and chicken empanada and asked to sample both of their sauces, they packed them really well in a bag for me and gave me napkins and I only paid $6 for two. An absolute steal If you ask me. The empanadas were fried perfectly, crispy, but not super doughy. The filling was perfect, the chicken filling was a little bit on the dry side, but nothing a little bit of sauce couldn't fix. I did like the beef filling because it wasn't super greasy and was seasoned right. Definitely check them out and I cannot wait to return and try the cheese empanada. Those are usually my favorite.

My favorite was the chicken fajita empanada. It was bursting with flavors and the taste of the peppers with chicken and cheese were just so delicious as were the cheesesteak and Greek empanadas.

No greeting, no "I'll be right with you" as I'm just standing there waiting to order. Even though we ordered around the same time, my friend got her empanada first while I sat here for over 7 minutes waiting for mine. How difficult is it to reheat these empanadas? It wasn't until I had to walk up to the lady at the cash register to ask about the status of my order. She then gives me my bag that was just sitting behind the counter. Did they not bother to call my name/order number? And trust me, I was listening diligently to make sure I hear my order when called. Like I said, empanadas tasted good, big in size and packed with meat. Not sure if this is a sketchy part of town or just where the riff-raffs hang out soo that may explain the lack of care here. A place to just order your empanadas and move on with your day.
