El Palacio de las Empanadas
4.1 (560)restaurant
This tiny Queens spot is loved for Colombian empanadas, prized for their perfect texture and flavorful dipping sauce.
Description




Alongside the main draw, the menu features casual Colombian eats, though some visitors warn of small portions on non-empanada orders. The accompanying sauce adds a distinct kick. While long-time regulars keep returning for the food, the experience can be set back by basic customer service, with cashiers occasionally described as bad-tempered. The fillings can also be inconsistent, including chicken empanadas that sometimes arrive with very little meat.
