Reviews for La Empanada Llama in Albany, NY
Conveniently located near other local restaurants didn?t really like the taste or texture of the food courteous staff Covid... glass up separate from dining area small selection of drinks They no longer sell smoothies cash or card. Hard to find parking ifyou drive. Sell aprons with vibrant colors and nice designs Read more
The customer service is good, and the food is always fresh and hot. A few things that stand out to me are the consistency of... freshness, flavor and properly cooked meat, no matter what I get. Portions sizes are right for the pricing. I LOVE theirEmpanadas. We are a family of 7, and I can order ahead of time (by phone or online) and pickup. The kids can try differentflavors because they are big enough to cut in half. The plantains are good too, though I prefer them a little bitsofter. Overall, this place is a Fam Fave! Read more
The food is delicious and the staff is friendly! I had the chicken, mac and cheese, Nutella and banana empanadas along with... yucca fries. Everything was very tasty and freshly made. The cilantro dipping sauce went very well with the savory empanadas! Read more
Amazing authentic food made fresh. I'm not really a guacamole person but this place makes me a fan of theirs! I recommend the... platter for those that may not be sure what they wish to try, you'll definitely want to return and try more of everything...ifthere were more stars I'd add them as well! Read more
It's Saturday I decided to treat myself today. Started with a massage, got the hair done, now I'm hungry. I see Empanada Nada. I... keep hearing so much about this place. Ok let me try it out..mind you I don't like eating out because everybody food isn'tgood.. anyways, I order the arroz con Pollo with fries dinner. [yeah I know weird combo] in my opinion I did not like it. Therice was highly flavored in cilantro the peas was crunchy the chicken had no flavor or color and dry. The best part of the mealwas the steak fries..sorry Empanada Nada that meal was an epic fail for me.. Read more
I have only gotten delivery so I can't speak to the atmosphere, cleanliness or staff but the food!!!!!!!!!!!! I ordered it for... lunch yesterday and dinner today. That's a good review right there. I had the arroz con pollo with a side of fried plantains.The rice and beans were so well seasoned and not dry like some other reviewers have found. I've now tried 5 of the savory and 3of the sweet empanadas. I think my favorite so far is the cabbage and chorizo. I would drink the green side sauce with astraw! Also, I have found it be reasonably priced. Tonight we got the family dinner which came with plentiful arroz con poloand your choice of 4 empanadas for only $28. Highly recommend this establishment!

I wish I could rate more than 5 stars, I love La Empanada Llamas empanadas! They're always fresh and I enjoy trying different... flavors and finding new favorites - they have so many to choose from! The staff is very generous every visit and theauthenticity of the Peruvian flavors and atmosphere ties everything together. The best part for me is that they're not stingywith the sides of cilantro dipping sauce like most places tend to be. I recommend grabbing a few empanadas if you're in thearea, they're worth every penny spent! Read more
