Gabe AMay 31, 2013Very delicious, affordable empanadas. I had one of each of the veggie options (3) and OH MAN they were amazing. For 3 empanadas and a soda, it was $10. I was in and out in a few minutes. Will be back.
Ras MaliceMay 6, 2014Tasty empanadas! Actually empanadA, I only had one. The Argentine. Very good, hot, fresh, literally bursting with flavor! I'll give this another go. My friend had buffalo chicken. Gave a thumbs up!
Katrina PeraltaSeptember 4, 2013They have a quasi-perminant truck in Times Square, so if you do find yourself in that horrible part of town, these empanadas are the best thing around. It's relatively tourist-free too. YUM!
Bobby NooromidAugust 23, 2012If you're looking for something quick, inexpensive and delicious, you can't go wrong here. Everything I've tried is excellent and takes less than a minute (or two - max) to serve.
Nancy ChenJune 26, 2012A good snack when you're not too hungry. Agree with everyone's rec about the short rib..definitely a yummy choice. Also had the jumbalaya, which is spicier if you need that extra kick.
Dee PhunkJuly 19, 2012I tried this truck in front of my office bldg (Time Inc). All the meat empanadas were sold out, leaving just the portobello and shiitake options. I bought one of each. Delicious. Snazzy truck too.
Serious EatsSeptember 3, 2013Argentinian food truck specializing in sweet and savory empanadas. Check Twitter for daily locations.
Christine RodriguezAugust 15, 2014The argentine and chicken empanada were delicious! Not bland and not too spicy, just right. Tkx for stopping by Broad St today, guys. ♡♡
Chris VodolaMarch 14, 2015Love the lightness of the crust on their empanadas. Don't leave without at least one Argentine.
Rodrigo MorenoFebruary 7, 2013Best empanadas around Times Square area. Great deal...get 3 empanadas and a drink for only $10. Great deal in Times Square!
RoseDecember 12, 2013Made the mistake. Ordered the sweet one with cranberries apples and Nutella . Should have tried the short rib? Wish they just had Nutella!
Christen ClinkscalesAugust 7, 2014The special buffalo chicken is awesome. Definitely go for the spicy cheese as well.
Todd L.February 10, 2012I love the short ribs empanada. Just out standing. The portobello was incredible too. 3 for $10 with a soda. Best deal in Times Square.
LaurenApril 25, 2013"Give the Portobello one a chance! Yes, it's on the Veggie menu, but it is fantastic. You can quote me on that." -me
Anna HAugust 27, 2013Delicious and affordable empanadas stuffed with goodness. Definitely a must try :-P
Michael de la MercedMarch 13, 2012Probably the best cheap eats in the area. The spicy chicken and the short rib empanadas are delicious.
The short ribs and spicy cheese are DELISH. Get them. Perfect snack to get you through the day.
Jennifer XJune 14, 2013Delicious snacks! The sweet one tastes like thanksgiving. Mmm. The savory argentine empanadas also a winner.
Kevin GrantJuly 18, 2013Delicious empanadas, a bit small though. I had three, probably should have gotten 4 or 5
DakotaJanuary 13, 2013Delish but too tiny to make lunch out of unless you want to shell out $12 for 4 tiny empanadas. Empanadas are usually much larger, was surprised when I saw mine!!
Sonja StarkDecember 10, 2011For a two-bite tidbit before a show in the heart of Times Square ~ feels good on the wallet too!
Martin FuksFebruary 23, 2012Have you tried our medialunas with your breakfast? Watch this video and you will!
MellyCupcakezAugust 9, 2012Good selection of veggie empanadas...customer service is like their hot sauce, non-existent.
Mandar MSeptember 16, 2013Do not get a soda ... A can will add 2 bucks ... Get it from another vendor for a dollar or less. Stick to the three empanadas for 8 bucks special
Michael GreeneAugust 20, 2012The three people staffing this mediocre food truck had me waiting 15 minutes for 3 empanadas only saying it would be 'two minutes'. I wouldn't recommend their food and their service is extremely poor

"This place never fails to impress me. Probably my best park in the big apple. Yoga classes, live music, nice surroundings, books and great waffle place, could you ask for more?"
Joury Al - 8.7
"Don't let the smaller product selection fool you. Almost every product is awesome (couldn't say the same about the 5th Ave old store). Look for Heath, super kind & super knowledgeable."
