If you know, you know. This place is a hidden gem in NYC. It's probably one of the top 5 best empanada spots in the city. The prices are great. This is not a sit-down spot, and parking is very difficult. But if you are from the city you know how to make a quick stop and go happen. Plus the bus stop is literally right in front of the shop. The stamp the bags with the type of empanada you order. This is a great feature, especially when you order variety. But let me tell you, the variety here is insane and ready to go. The spicy chicken is my favorite. Lastly, shout-out to Queens, NY this is our Flagship Empanada Spot.
Disappointed! I haven't ordered from here in a while and I was expecting the same quality and flavor as in the past, but I was wrong and regretted it. I ordered two different types of empanadas and both of them were salty and the Greek one had an extreme taste of garlic. I was surprised to see the establishment empty and now I understand why. Service was quick (of course, it was empty).
I went to Mamas about 30 minutes before close as a hungry individual coming home sweating from a baseball game. I expected excellent empanadas yet they tell me that the place is closed. Either they have to update it on their website or not lie to my face.
Really good food. They make everything fresh infront of you, so there is a bit of wait. Definitely call them ahead and pickup once your there . Saves so much time. Everything on the menu is about 2-3 dollars.

Menu misleads by saying combo #6 is the best value when it 's the same as ordering 2x #5 combos, which would come out considerably cheaper.
Great little place! The empanadas were delicious, with a good variety to choose from. My daughter brought me here, and I'm glad she did.
I never met a place where you can have a Guava and ? ? philly cheesteak Cheeseburger ? I'm telling you it's worth it
