Doce Empanadas: Reviews & Ratings
Best empanadas - locally owned - food is delicious every time. Staff is so helpful and accommodating. Their empanadas are the perfect size and the sauces are delicious. They are one of our favorite go-to places. Kids love the pepperoni and chicken, my favorite pulled pork.
The food was phenomenal. If you want a real, authentic and fresh empanada, this is the place to go. A family run business, providing great service with quality food.
I had one pork empanada, 1 cheese and 1 chicken and buffalo chicken and they were all 10/10 WILL BE COMING BACK! Customer service was excellent
Awesome place, definitely recommend! The empanadas are delicious and the people here are so friendly!
The food was delicious I ordered two empanadas shouldve ordered three...people were nice. Its a cute little cafe, some games to play seating was comfortable. I'm definitely going again!
Came here at the recommendation of a friend and they are the best Empanada's I've ever had. I will be coming here again, often. The owner Fernando was super friendly as well!
I ordered to go since I was busy, they are very professional, in little time I had my fresh, just cooked empanadas! Super yummy, the flavor was great, fresh ingredients and excellent seasoning, very well packed and well identified too (I ordered a few different fillings). My favorite was the shrimp one totally recommend
TLDR; it's good, go now This is a place that's easy to pass. I used a GPS and passed it myself. It's a mistake to not come here. The empanadas are made quickly and they're fresh. The workers are kind and give you the vibe like you've been there every day which is comforting. There is a temptation to gatekeep this treasure but it's too good to hide. The Hawaiian is the best one imo but there's something for everyone. The sauces are great too. If you really like one in particular, get two of them because you'll want more even if you're full!
Love this quaint and cozy spot. They have good food, welcoming service, awesome house music and games. Highly recommend the beef and spinach/ricotta empanadas!
Doce Empanada is another place that I've had bookmarked for the longest time. I happen to be in the neighborhood and finally got a chance to drop in. Now that I know what I've been missing, I will drop in more often! Doce Empanada offers a variety of 12 different empanadas, handmade churros, and other sweets & beverages. (See my photo for current menu - prices have increased slightly, but not too bad). I was impressed with the spacious interior. Open & airy, clean & inviting. They even have boardgames on the tables. A game night with empanadas and cool music!?!? I ordered a variety of empanadas for takeout, and really appreciated that each empanada came in their own labeled wax paper envelope; keeping the empanadas crispy and easy to identify. These envelopes were then placed in a nice protection box. Quality ingredients with quality packaging! Here are the four empanadas I tried: Chicken, Beef, Spinach & Ricotta, and Sausage & Peppers. Honestly, I loved them all. They all had distinctive, tasty flavors. I actually would have preferred more bold flavors, but that's just my personal preference. The empanadas were on the small side but were fully stuffed with filling. Not bad at $2.65 each! Sauce: the sign states that you get your choice of 1 sauce per 3 empanadas but I actually got 1 sauce per 2 empanadas. (Yay!) Each additional sauce will be an extra 50¢ each. I automatically chose the green sauce without actually looking at the other option. I was surprised that their green sauce wasn't the usual mayo based sauce, but an herb & oil based sauce. It was delicious and reminded me of Chimichurri sauce! Yummm The other sauce was a pinkish mayo based sauce. Next time, I'll try that one also! But the empanadas were delicious with no sauce also! Customer service was friendly, welcoming and efficient! I look forward to a return visit to try the other empanadas and their handmade churros!
