    This place has amazing food and great service for the value the money you're getting. There were only $2 paramananda in the and ponatah's were excellent made fresh every day.

Here are a few pictures of are delicious and ponatah's as you could see from these pictures and others they're extremely consistent what they produce.

    The empanadas are made to order. Fresh, piping hot, absolutely delicious! Golden brown crust, light and soft with a Lil crunch on the edges and the fillings are just as tasty. Ordered the spicy chicken, spicy beef, plain beef and beef and cheese, beef and potatoes. They were all equally delicious but the spicy beef was my favorite. The ladies who run the place are lovely and very efficient, the wait was not long all. And you can watch them prep the empañadas right there! I'm definitely going back.

    I am picky about my empanadas and thought Stella’s was great. My boyfriend and I liked the beef, chicken+cheese, chicken+rice, philly cheesesteak and mac+cheese. Service was also good, we were able to pickup timely and the price was reasonable. Definitely will be our go-to place!

    This place was recommended by a friend. Small establishment family owned. STELLA was delightful. She works side by side with her daughter. You can see she really enjoys cooking up her delishous empanadas and they take pride in what they do. The variety of empanadas ! Wow ! And desert empanadas also. There are so many to choose from. BBQ pulled pork, Philly cheese steak, buffalo chicken, mozzarella garlic and parsley were some of the best. Prices are good. Marinated grilled Chicken sandwiche and chori burger was delicious, so much flavor. Fries are on the crispy side as they are deep fried. If you like this kind of chip taste from a French fry then you will love these. If not I suggest getting a salad. The cost of a dozen fried is a great deal. If you want them baked it cost a lil more and will take a lot longer. So call ahead. They also do fundraisers and have a food truck. Call for more info. I'd have given a 5 star but I'm big on customer service. Upon entering it felt a lil akward when it should have felt welcoming. As this was my first time I believe you should give a friendly introduction no matter how busy you may be. You should make the time and give attention to the customers in front of you instead of the people who are calling in orders. It shows you care about the customers experience by puttingthem first. It sets the tone for your experience and for me will determine if I become a returning customer. I do recommend all the empanada lovers out there come and try Stella's Empanadas you won't be disappointed!

    While visiting the Ramsey Farmers Market I came across Stella's Empanadas. Empanadas come in various varieties. I purchased a box of six which included: beef, chicken, bbq pork, potato and cheese. These were pre made in were in a cooler. The cost was $15 or $2.50. Instructions were on the box. When we came home we tried some. The flavors were okay, unfortunately there was no sauces in the box. Therefore, they were missing something. I believe empanadas are best when just made with dipping sauces and a salad. So try them.

    Despite going before closing and the reheating of the empanadas was crispy adjacent … the actual empanada stuffing WAS AMAZING! Spicy chicken and Buffalo chicken were seasoned to perfection. Because of the filling will try again BUT earlier in day

    Was at the Gem and Fossil convention and stumbled upon this GEM of a food truck. Easily the best empanadas I’ve ever had. I got there late and they were sold out of most, but they had a Mac and cheese one that was INCREDIBLE. The chimichurri is some of the best, most flavorful ever. Will 1000% be back, the workers (or owners) were also so nice and gave me extra empanadas for no charge because they were closing soon! Thank you!

👍👍 This is by far the best location I’ve been to - the atmosphere is modernized & has a very wood nature theme to it. It also has a bar that is very secluded .. which you can stay at if you are waiting for a table. As of right now they are doing an all you can drink for 4 days of the week for $15! I ca...
