“ Quick and easy counter spot for creative empanadas. The space is tiny so it's best to take out. You can buy 1, 6, or 12 empanadas in a set. Freshly made on premises. ”

“ Empanada Mania has been a go to spot for my husband, me and son for quite some time now. The empanadas are always made fresh and STUFFED! Fried to perfection, without being greasy. Our favorites are the cheese, beef, guava with cheese & bacon cheeseburger and cannot forget the perfectly seasoned fries! Can't go without saying, what started as a simple love of empanadas flourished into meeting great people - the pleasant, welcoming experience from all staff is one that we look forward to often and keeps us recommending to our friends and family! ”

“ For view the reel I made about this Latin American spot, please visit my Instagram account: @explorationwithjeffthecritic Empanada Mania 62 S. Washington Ave. Bergenfield NJ 07621 Angus Beef Bacon Cheeseburger Cuban Sweet Thai Chicken Spinach & Feta Appearance: 10/10 Taste: 10/10 On the Southern part of Washington Avenue is a Latin American spot that specializes in homemade empanadas. Owner Galo and Manager Felipe introduced me to a variety of the signature product. Check out the outer layers of these crispy empanadas. If you think they look this good on the outside, wait until you see the inner fillings! This original version of this folded hot pastry is packed with plenty of angus beef along with sauteed peppers & onions. This may have a similar appearance to the previous empanada, but do not be deceived. Imagine having a juicy succulent bacon cheeseburger in a crunchy shell in lieu of a hamburger roll. Here’s a perfect variation of the classic Cuban sandwich. The pork was smoked for several hours and it also includes ham and mozzarella cheese. It’s time to try some Thai. The sweet thai chili sauce mixed in this Asian style empanada has the perfect blend of heat and spice. If happen to be a vegetarian or If you just need a break from meat and poultry, the spinach & feta is a must try! As a bonus, these two secret sauces are fantastic supplements for your meat pies! Dunk away in the house made red hot sauce or if you are craving thousand island base with some top secret ingredients then go for the pink sauce. As another bonus, there is a state of the art coffee machine for hot beverages such as expresso, or cappucinno. All in all, each empanada as paradise. When I next return I’m looking forward to exploring their other empanadas as well as the side dishes. #empanadamania #empanadas #cuban #angusbeef #baconcheeseburger #SweetThaiChicken #spinachandfeta #LocalBusiness #foodstagram #eats #njfoodie #localspots #foodreviews ”
