Absolutely delicious food! We love coming here for a quick bite and for her outstanding desserts. All vegan (she has everything though). The rice and beans platter with some soy chorizo empanadas- delish! Eating a platter of vegan carrot cake and red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting as we speak! The cream cheese frosting is incredible - the best vegan frosting I've ever had! She also makes vegan meringues and cookies... heaven!!
I can't even put into words how amazing the empanadas are! And the rice and beans are really the best I've ever had!!!! Great vegan options too. Our new go to place.
Awesome restaurant. As a vegan, it's great to be able to have delicious empanadas and rice and beans. Desserts are great too. The chocolate parfait was to die for.
One of the best things in Oceanside. Instead of the same old food, you could have something unique and tasty. Always a great time to boost Jessy and pick up a box of empanadas.

We had them for lunch today, and they were beyond delicious! Just authentic, natural, well-seasoned and satisfying empanadas. I loved the soy chorizo plantain and the chicken. The chimichurri style sauce was the best. We topped it off with alfajores and guava and Nutella empanadas. What an amazing break from the norm. We can't wait to go back, we are so lucky to have you in Oceanside.
I literally just walked in the door from buying 6 empanadas and I ate 3 of them !!! They're delicious and taste homemade. I love that they're baked, that there offer healthier vegan options. So happy to have this place in Oceanside! ❤️
The have the BEST empanadas around! Absolutely delicious! Plus they have an AMAZING vegan section!
Amazing food and business owner! Jessy is a true advocate for the special needs community, donating her tips to support children with down syndrome as well as employing those with developmental disabilities. A kind and thoughtful person who deserves the business!
Delicious vegan food, reasonable prices and friendly service.
I first tried the empanadas at a craft fair at Saint Christopher’s church and loved them!! I go back to the fair every year mainly just to get my empanadas. I have to get to the store!!! And bring everyone I know!!! Lol
Always fresh, amazing taste. Just the best empanadas.
So good! Love the vegan options! Finally I can have empanadas!!! :)delicious and great prices!
I love the empanadas! I first I encountered them at the Coffee & Tea Festival in NYC 2015 and was sorry I didn't buy more. Today I saw them and brought 5 ($20) spinach/mozzarella & chicken. I am very satisfied......
Stopped in today and had the best empanadas and alfajores. Can't wait to go back and try more.
Absolutely delicious. Rice and beans are amazing. Empanadas are fresh and restaurant is clean! Can't wait to return!
I love their vegan empanadas. My SO and I tried about 6 different flavors. Very tasty and would recommend for nice and quick meal. Honestly, three empanadas filled me up to the brim. So buy a lot to stock up for later. The only reason why I gave this place four stars is because some of the empanadas could have used a touch more spices (soy sausage). Vegan meats aren't super flavorful on their own and many non vegans get turned away by the non meaty taste. So it's best to add a few more spices here and there to give it more of a meaty flavor. Not sure if that was intentional because of its audience, but it still is super flavorful. I recommend you give them a try!
Order 2 chicken empanadas and 2 alfajores cookies. Delicious and always fresh. The big on presentation which I love and appreciate the note of thanks for supporting and hoping for return business.
The vegan empanadas were amazing. Love that they were baked, not fried!! They were delicious and non greasy! The presentation with box, logo and packaging was a nice added detail. I haven't tried the desserts yet but I would definitely order from them again. Clean and professional pickup process!
I tried their queso and plantain empanada along with a chicken one...it was SO GOOD. You can walk in there and smell and feel like you’re literally in an empanada. Usually when I go someplace new I order one thing, I like it and just stick to it but this place makes me want to try everything on their menu. THEY HAVE VEGAN OPTIONS AND THEY’RE AMAZING SO IF YOU’RE VEGAN GO HERE. I love it all. Thanks Jessy you make some REALLY good empanadas!!!!
Love this place! Plenty of vegan and vegetarian options (as well as regular options) and their (mostly vegan) deserts are AMAZING! Their main attraction, empanadas, are great as well! Thanks for giving vegans like myself a quick service food place to go to on LI that’s actually good and isn’t too expensive (we don’t really have a lot of those here)! :)
Food is absolutely delicious. I originally ordered through door dash and they accidentally forgot 2 empenadas. They were very apologetic. I was able to go pick up the empanada's that were forgotten from the doordash order. They even threw in a free cupcake. Will definitely be ordering from them again. I had the Beef, Queso and Plaintain, and Guava and they were all delicious!
We went in and asked to have at least 3 of every different vegan empanada they had. Luckily, they had so much variety, so we were looking forward to feasting on empanadas all night. Unfortunately when we got home, we realized that they had not included some of their variety and had just thrown in more of the same variety we had. We were kind of bummed and felt cheated but must admit they were ALL delicious. Next time we will be super diligent in watching what they put in the bag so we can get exactly what we want.
This place has the best empanadas. Everything is so fresh and delicious.
Love this place! They always have a bountiful aray of vegan desserts from Vegan Treats and they're always adding new vegan items to the menu, such as their mac n' cheese. Their empanadas are always fresh and the customer service is great at this location. Definitely pay them a visit.
We eat here at least two or three times a month. They have a great selection of vegan empanadas and vegan desserts. Everything is delicious. Staff is very friendly.
I just wouldn't recommend going for empanadas the hour before closing, there's not much of a selection left. There are usually desserts available though.
Small, family-run feel (not sure if it actually is). Food always tastes fresh and high quality. When I'm looking for food in the area this place always crosses my mind. Lots of vegan options though I haven't tried much (I'm not vegan) - but they look really good, especially the desserts.
Great empanadas and a really nice variety too. Highlights include the Mac and Cheese and the classic beef empanada, but honestly they're all good. The green sauce has a nice kick that complements the meat options really well. Only down is that service can be slow but I think the offerings are well worth the wait.
Omg yum! I love that variety that they have. They even have vegan and vegetarian option. Everything I had was good. My favorite were the chicken and guava cheese and my husband’s were Buffalo chicken and the Nutella. It’s an easy grab and go kind of place. These guys are also very Covid careful. They wear masks and gloves. Great place. Will be back for sure!
AMAZING!!!!! I ordered through door dash not too long ago, got the BBQ chicken empanada, the mac & cheese empanada and the nutella empanadas. ALL SO GOOD!!! will DEFINITELY be stopping by soon to grab more and try different flavors!!!! also, such cute branding and packaging!!!! LOVE IT
This place is amazing. My family ranges from vegans to carnivores and everyone has multiple options they love. Even the meat eaters love the veggie options. We’re basically ordering on a weekly basis because of how much we love the food.
Excellent vegan options. Had their jack fruit "pulled pork" empanada and it was amazing. The vegan brownie was crazy good. Rice, beans, and platanos were so flavorful, i was blown away. This place is a diamond in the rough. Unique options and overall wondeful empanadas.
We’ve been hotel-bound for a couple of weeks as we’re between apartments, and have already ordered empanadas several times. They’re great every time, can’t say enough good things. I like the soy chorizo plantain and bbq jackfruit empanadas the best.
The empanadas are very good and they have a great variety of flavors and fillings. Besides they also serve some nice side dishes. Staff are very helpful and attentive but the empanadas are expensive, average over $3 each. Clean and organized.
