It appears to be a family-owned spot with a cozy atmosphere. Although they offer a full menu, they're best known, as their name suggests, for their empanadas, which are labeled and beautifully displayed in a glass case. Although the wait was a bit long, I'm happy to say it was worth it. The baker empanadas are generously stuffed with delicious fillings. I ordered three to share with my partner. Matambre Empanada: This seems to be one of their most popular options. Filled with steak, onions, and peppers, it was absolutely delicious! Spicy Chorizo Empanada: Spicy in the best way! The mozzarella perfectly balances the heat. Beef Empanada: Packed with plenty of seasoned ground beef. Also very good, though we preferred the Matambre. We'll definitely be ordering again. Next time, we'll have to try one of their entrées or sandwiches.

What a great addition to the Neighborhood ! Argentina is my top 5 countries i have visited …read more Argentine are to meat what Picasso was to paint ! Masters of Meat . We ordered 5 different flavors of empanadas : Sweet beef ( traditional ) , spanish & cheese , Vegetarian , Caprese . We agreed all equally delicious 5/5 . We ordered to go , so i couldn't get the full in dining experience and had to rate on a curve . They will be hosting World Cup Watch and i will be there for sure !! . They do sell wine bottles if you forgot to BYOB , albeit at steep prices with premade sangrias . The dining area is small but make great use of space with seating . I went during lunch time 11:45 am , they could use more help . Only two one at cashier , taking orders one manning oven . I'd order ahead of time for pick ups . In all fairness they were open only 2 months .

Empanada or Nada is an interesting name. There is a little bit of both…read more My wife has been talking about this place for a while now and we were walking we decided to stop in. I know some people judge a place based on the traffic inside. Something was lacking, though, when we walked in. It felt empty to say the least. They had a limited selection on an early Sunday, which was surprising. I really wanted to try the pizza and the Philly cheesesteak but they were out. We sampled the Cuban, Buffalo chicken, Chicken bacon ranch, and plain beef paired with a spicy mayo sauce. The empanadas were tasty, but nothing amazing. We enjoyed the Cuban the most. My other gripe is that there are no sides, fries, plantains, rice. Nothing. They took their name too literally. If they add sides in the future, I'll be more willing to visit again.

I could eat 10 in a row! I will definitely be back! I just hate that parking is so bad in that area.

I attended a Yelp Elite Event at Catfight Coffee, that happened to be in Boonton so I already knew what I was doing after the event. The place is bright and has a good amount of seating inside. I ended up getting the beef and Cuban empanadas. These empanadas are baked and reheated when served. The beef was pretty good and the chimichuri sauce was a nice compliment. I really liked the Cuban empanada, it was packed with protein and tasted like a Cuban sandwich. The person who served me was very nice and mentioned she liked the Cuban, glad I tried that out. * Street parking

At first, I thought they were overpriced, but once you actually order Rosie's empanadas, they're…read moreactually quite filling and not lacking in meat at all, they're full of meat.

It's a…read morelittle further than we'd normally want to drive for a random restaurant but we had the day off so we figured - why not? They only have outdoor seating, and you have to go around the back for the dining area. I liked that they had games on each table (giant uno, giant Jenga) so it seems like a cool spot to meet up with some friends. There was some sort of taco special going on (2 for $8, but add $1 if it's a seafood taco). Here is what we ordered: -Pork belly taco (roasted pork belly, salsa verde, pickled red onion) - definitely my favorite. The pork was so tender and flavorful -Lobster taco - (chilled lobster, chipotle aioli, red onion, corn, avocado, blue corn hard shell) - this was kind of like a lobster salad but I really liked it. I considered ordering another one of these two but I was already full from the additional pork belly taco -Crispy fish taco (panko breaded white fish, lettuce, pico, chipotle mayo, flour tortilla) - this was a solid fish taco -Spicy jerk chicken taco (roasted chicken thigh, mango salsa, crema, pickled onion, guacamole) - this one was my least favorite. The chicken was dry, and it's pretty hard to overcook chicken thigh -Birria burrito lunch special - my husband ordered this one and it was soo dry. Since it said birria, we thought it would have come with consommé, but it didn't. I don't think that would have helped much though. Lunch specials come with your choice of yellow rice & black beans, salad, or fries. He chose fries and they tasted like when you have leftover fries from McDonalds and pop them in the toaster oven the next day (not good) -Chicharron - tough and dry As I mentioned, this spot is a little far for us so I would probably only go back if I was ever in the area for some more pork belly and lobster tacos. But I wouldn't go out of my way to do so. Tip - BYOB

The meat is perfect and I get that they wanna keep the natural flavors of the meats which is great but they just need a literal tinsy bit of salt.

Okay the tip review was from 2025 I have been here about 7 times. The tacos taste a bit better but them tortillas man! They need better tortillas the texture of meat is good and you want your food to stay together while you eat it.
