See Update:Repeat, Repeat, repeat customer! Best Empanadas in town. Tostones are the best, don't know what they do different. Neat graphics in the restaurant. Dahl is really good and I'm not a vegetarian. Looking for some more of their surprise specials.Update: Don't know what happened. They had the best tostones in town. Ordered some today (04Aug2022) and they were unrecognizable. Returned them and they gave me basically the same thing again. They are greasy (mushy) and fall apart as you remove them from the bag. So much salt as they were inedible. Come on guys you can and have done better! Empanadas are still to die for. Reducing to 3 stars

Food was amazing! Tostones were perfectly sized and prepared. Our boys are pretty discerning when it come to their rice and beans, and they were both more than satisfied. My husband was very impressed, as well, and we can't wait to try the empanadas. So glad that we found a place closer to home! A hidden gem that I truly don't think many know about; would definitely suggest supporting local business and checking them out! I know we'll be back!

I absolutely love this place! The owners and staff are all friendly, the atmosphere is clean and enjoyable. I have never been disappointed with anything I've ordered, as everything is fresh and delicious. The empanadas are my favorite, especially paired with yucca fries. The salsa here is the best I've ever tasted, but my personal favorite is the pineapple salsa. Empanada Times, you have my heart! Love, "the container lady" Book a table now

This restaurant is sooo cute! The decor is amazing such attention to detail. Their empanadas are equally as amazing. My girls and I had the beef plantain, seafood jambalaya, and philly cheesecake. They were fresh, hot, flaky DELICIOUS!! We will most definitely be back. If you're in town, do your taste buds a favor and stop in.

They had a food truck at the annual Pequannock Hoedown Saturday 10/15. I love empanadas and stood in line for 20 min. I should not have wasted my time. They did not have the classic empanadas i'm used to do i got chipotle chicken and beef and potato. Both were terrible. Maybe they're better at the restaurant who knows?

This restaurant is amazing!!! I particularly enjoyed the Chipotle Chicken and Dahl empanadas. The ingredients are so fresh and flavorful. The shell is absolutely delicious. Even though the restaurant is small, the decor is fun and unique. I highly recommend trying it out.
