Every single bite is packed with flavor and you can taste immediately that these are the real deal -- homemade, authentic, and made with actual care and love. The price is fantastic which honestly makes it even more dangerous because there is absolutely nothing stopping you from ordering way more than you planned. And you will. Trust me. This is not your average empanada. This is the kind of food that takes you somewhere -- the kind that makes you wonder why you ever settled for anything less. If you consider yourself even a casual fan of empanadas you need to get here immediately because Amado's is on a completely different level. Absolutely incredible. Cannot recommend enough.

The appetizer platter also comes with the same kind of plantain chips. Highly recommended if you want to try a bit of everything. Empanada has fresh homemade crust Lechon asado: tender and juicy roasted pork. I substitute the moros with fried plantains. I really enjoy it. Plantains are ripe and sweet but not mushy. Tostones are the biggest I've ever had. Well fried and not greasy. Plenty of drink options. Sangria is ok, not very fruity. Only has two slices of oranges . Mojito: strong rum from my favorite rum brand Don Q. My friend ordered paella. The portion is huge. You can share it with more than one person. It takes three containers to take home the leftover. Very tasty with fresh seafood.

My original experience was disappointing, but I truly appreciate the time and kindness the owner showed in reaching out personally. That level of care makes a difference. The restaurant is beautiful, the food is genuinely excellent, and I would hate to miss the opportunity to continue enjoying great Argentine cuisine here. Sometimes small things can make a big difference--both positive and negative--and I believe it's important to recognize when a business takes customer feedback seriously and makes an effort to address concerns.
