I recently tried Island Empanada and really loved it! The Philly Cheesesteak empanada was absolutely delicious! the texture inside was perfect, and the gooey cheesiness made every bite amazing. You could really taste the flavor and quality.

I also tried the Mac & Cheese Bacon empanada, which was just okay for me. It had a nice flavor, but it was a little on the dry side compared to the Philly Cheesesteak one.

Overall, I really enjoyed this place! The empanadas were fresh, flavorful, and unique. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more flavors next time

These empanadas are delicious and the plus is that they have such a variety. We ordered the variety box with rice and beans and I could eat that everyday with all that flavor. Philly cheese steak, shrimp, beef, chicken, pasteleon and Buffalo chicken and that is just a few. I hope the reviews on this place get better because I see them around for awhile.

Not bad at all!! Good food and a nice young lady behind the counter. The price is high. 4$ a empanada. The deal I had was 35$ for 10. The beef and plantain empañada was great the one pork was great too. Chicken empañada was also good. I would like to try a chicken pepper and potatoes, or pork and plantain for a future feature item. They have vegetarian options also.

Empanadas were good, rice and beans good- but small serving, tostones good- but no garlic sauce, Plantains, BAD. Unfortunately, they were burnt (see pic).

Store is very clean and staff is very friendly. Took one look at the menu and mentally refused to pay $4 for an empanada. Empanadas usually range from $1.50-3 (mamas empanadas). Even specialty empanadas. And they’re made fresh to order. These were premade sitting on a glass bin on the counter. Ended up ordering wings & fries (safe bet). They barely filled 1/2 the container with fries and the wings were definitely fried from frozen (tolerable). Def could get better wings at a bar or pizzeria. All for $14. For a quick bite, this is not it. I could’ve gotten 4 slices of pizza to fill me and another person up for the same price.

Long over due, review for these delicious empanadas that I tried from a food truck at the amityville park, went to a event slammed by the bay and they were there selling empanadas! The lines were so long and they kept making new empanadas, they were trying to keep up with the demand of empanadas that everyone was ordering. Chicken/Shrimp/Carne empanadas we’re all tried and all of them were very tasty and fresh! Highly recommend visiting a physical location, if you can’t find the truck.

Let me start off saying the empanada were delicious. I tried the

Chicken- kind of dry
Beef – delicious
Pork- good
Shrimp/mango – good
Mac/cheese – good

The reason for 3 stars is because the size and price of the empanada just don’t match up. An almost $5 empanada should be bigger. I shouldn’t have to spend $15-$20 to eat four palm sized empanadas to get full. Chickens road in Wantagh charges $5 and they’re GIANT. I am Nacho mama charges 3 dollars and they’re the same size if not bigger. I could go on. Either make them bigger or drop the price seriously. The food was good enough to go back, but not at these prices.

**reply to owner. I used door dash and all the empanadas were $4.25

Tried Island Empanada for the first time today. Immediately upon entering I noticed everything was very clean and the workers were so nice and helpful. The food itself is such a great deal and oh my god is it amazing. I got the beef and cheese, the chicken bacon ranch and the loaded potato Empanada which were all extremely delicious especially the loaded potato empanada which I will definitely have to go back to get more of. I’ve never been a huge fan of beans and rice but it was very well seasoned and enjoyable to eat as well as the tostones, which I had never had before. I cant wait to go back again for more!

Finally got to try this place and I’m glad I did this is definitely an amazing empanada spot. The limited time corned beef one was outstanding and the loaded potato balls were amazing especially with the pink sauce so much flavor! I will definitely be back and get others to come here too a really great spot!
