Oh my goodness what an amazing find. I highly recommend! My family tried the cheeseburger, turkey & cheese, Buffalo chicken, chicken & rice and pineapple chicken. We loved each one but the cheeseburger with the bbq cream sauce was my favorite!!!! The fries dipped in the sauces were so good too!! Def a must try! 5 ⭐ the only thing with gluten in the entire place is 1 sauce which is labeled.

Wow! Where have I been to have missed this little hidden gem? The empanadas here and the staff are equally amazing! So many wonderful flavors to choose from that it’s hard to narrow it all down. We ordered a dozen so that we would have some to enjoy the next day (shepherds pie, black beans, rice and plantains, chorizo and cheese. Etc) . My absolute favorite is the guava and cheese. Definitely make sure you order some extras of these to keep in your freezer. They packaged and labeled everything separately so that we would know what’s what. The entire facility is gluten-free with non-contaminated fryers. In addition to the empanadas, they offer sweet potato fries and traditional french fries. I look forward to purchasing more frozen empanadas here to keep my freezer stocked.

Absolutely love this place! The Pineapple chicken and cheese was amazing! Only one sauce is not gluten free and it’s not made in house.

The food is amazing. My family and I are on vacation in the area and stopped after seeing reviews on this app. Everything was delicious, we got 2 lunch combos and added 2 guava and cheese empanadas. The only gluten containing item was one of the sauces. I wish we had another day in the area so we could go back!

All I can say is "YUM!" I just moved to Largo and this is the best part of living here. We have eaten here at least 6 times and still have more empanada options to try. I typically do not feel well after consuming fried food, but I have been fine eating here. I believe there is one sauce that contains gluten, otherwise the menu is yours to choose from, which is treat for us. Also, this is a very small, super casual restaurant. We typically take our order to go and enjoy them at a near by park.

AMAZING! Almost everything is gluten free. I think the only thing not gluten free was the teriyaki sauce. I had the buffalo chicken, cheeseburger and the Colombian potato empanadas. Everything was so delicious. Even had French fries. So many flavors to choose from. I had no reactions and will definitely be going back again.

Update: entire restaurant GF now due to demand. We seriously LOVE this place. We go at least 2 times a month and every time the service and food are impeccable! WOWOWOW!!!!! I am GRATEFUL for this place. I have missed a good empanada since my diagnosis, and am so glad I found this place. Milo was so sweet and helpful. He made sure nothing was contaminated and safe. A true gem, the people the place and the food. Will 100% go back. Thank you empanada brothers!

What a terrible experience here, I don’t understand all the good reviews. First- if you have children you will not want to bring them inside. Very shocking/ugly items on display on the walls. We detoured on a road trip based on reviews, but didn’t even end up ordering because the place was so disgusting inside. It’s in a not so good part of town too. Dirty inside, and very strange decor, we left.

I cannot say enough about how amazing Empanada Brothers is! Milo is so personable and immediately knew what Celiac was and stated everything in their restaurant is gluten free and Celiac safe. I inquired about the chicken tenders as another reviewer mentioned them. Milo stated they got rid of them because of the amount of clientele who is Celiac. I have eaten here two times in the last four days and feel great. I will definitely be returning.
