This place is a classic!!! I've been coming here for a league night snack for 20 years! Still as popular and authentic as ever! They offer both savory and sweet empanadas that always hit the spot!

Julia’s Empanadas is a gem! Their empanadas are packed with flavor, with a perfect balance between the savory fillings and the flaky, golden crust. I loved the variety—there’s something for everyone, whether you like classic or adventurous flavors. The staff is friendly, and the service is quick. Highly recommend stopping by for a satisfying meal!

Found a bug in my empanada. Genuinely one of the grossest things I've seen. As I was eating I saw something that looked like bug legs. I thought probably it would be some kind of spice but decided to pull it out to be safe. I pulled it out and almost threw up. Would recommend sending the health inspector here

$8 an empanada is ridiculous. They’re not that big or that good

Great empanadas. Tiny place. Take away only. I’ll be back!

I was underwhelmed with the quality of these empanadas given the hype. The meat from the Chilean style beef empanada (with egg, olive, raisin, and onion) was rubbery and tepid in flavor. The Jamaican style (with ground beef, onion, potatoes,.green peppers, and curry spices) was also lackluster, a far cry from a real flavorful Jamaican patty. And even the veggie Spinach one with ricotta, mozzarella, onion and spices was disappointing, just tasted like a grocery store hot pocket. Service was nice and friendly, but kind of a pain that why are cash only. My hope is there are better empanadas in the area, as these were well short of the mark.

These empanadas were terrible. Dry dough, not flavorful, and $6 a piece? For what?

Nasty. I tried 4 and they were all nasty. The strawberry and cream cheese pastry has 1 chump of cold cream cheese in it terrible it was ice cold had hard crust. The Chipotle steak was not good too many stringy over cooked onions. The Jamaican style was the worst 😫 I'm so disappointed
