I admit it, I eat here sober. I always have. It could be because I love anything wrapped in dough - but that's another story. Chorizo AND black beans AND dough? Sold. With soda, under $4.

The turkey empanada is my new best friend. It beckons me with its deliciousness. Prices are fair too. My only qualm is that they don't take cards, so make sure you've got cash with you.
