Josephine's Special Empanadas

The bread of the empanada is mildly sweet and palatable to everybody. The place is neat and organized. I like that every table has an antibacterial gel. I came for the tuna empanada and liked the beef flavor the most. On weekends, they have arroz caldo and Filipino champurado.Vegetarian options: Mushroom and cream and corn and cream for vegetarians.

Best place for Filipino empanadas bar none! Who would have thought tuna melt empanada would be a good idea. They did! I thought...hmm...that can't be good. That would be gross. But I tried it anyway ?. Damn! I was blown away! Also tried their beef and chicken empanada. All were excellent. My only complaints were they sell by the piece. There's no discount for buying in quantity. Their pricing seems lower if buying from the store vs online pricing. They also charge an extra 3% if you pay using a credit card.

The beef empanada is sooooooo goooooodddd.... I got two for each flavor, and they are all good. But there is no comparison for beef one. It has beef and potato I there, and the crust was crunchy and fluffy and not overwhelmed with the egg or buttery flavor. Try the Pandan Coconut Milk is awesomely great! I wish they have a special box price, but I also glad they don't. Otherwise I will be gaining weight too fast to order a dozen each time.Parking: Same plaza with Starbucks

The empanadas/dots are well baked. Was really impressed by the mushroom fillings. It had proper cut bites and cooked to perfection in my opinion. The corn cheese empanada was tasting good as well. Definitely will come back to check out the soups and get cozied by a nice vibe inside. Thank you!

Today the 10th which is Veterans Day, would be a good day to have empanadas. Stop by at a filipino bakery especializing in empanadas. Empanadas are really good but customer service need a lot of improvement. The young lady that served us was very cold, no greeting, no thank you, not even a little smile. It feels like she doesn't want to be there. Sad, and I hope she is not the owner. No wonder we were the only customer. With this kind of service and even with good empanadas, there won't be many repeat customers. I will be thinking twice coming back at this place because there are many good empanada vendors at West Covina. Nowadays, with inflation and a quesionable economy, it's desirable to experience good food and good customer service if not excellent..................
