Empanada Mama brands themselves as the best empanada in town — and New Yorkers agree! It’s usually open 24/7, according to their website. Empanada Mama takes a multicultural approach with their empanadas, and has Greek, Cuban, Polish, Italian, American, and Hawaiian-style empanadas — and they’re still looking to expand from there. They have a variety of recipes for their empanadas too, including baked wheat empanadas, corn flour empanadas, and wheat flour empanadas, as well as dessert empanadas! Empanada Mama has several locations, including in Hell’s Kitchen, the Lower East Side, and Times Square — but stay tuned for another location. Of course, if you’re dying to try their empanadas but your company isn’t, they have other menu options including quesadillas, platters, salads, and sandwiches.
