Our Journey
Crafted From Dominican Tradition
From a single food truck in the Dominican Republic, to four locations in The Bronx, extending to a food truck in North Carolina. Inspired by the vision of 2 renowned chefs in the Dominican Republic and brought to the heart of NYC, every empanada is prepared fresh with quality ingredients, bold flavors, and the same dedication that has been at the heart of the business from day one. La Verdadera Empanada represents our commitment to serving every guest with exceptional food and genuine hospitality.
