Not only is the food awesome, the service was great and it was so clean you could eat off the floor. You can tell whoever owns it, truly loves what they do. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

I'm shocked by some of the reviews claiming they are small? Idk where yall are getting your empanadas typically but these are sized normally. I think maybe we're just so accustomed to larger portions in America? Regardless, the only reason I'm ever upset by the size is because they are delicious and gone too soon. Solution? By two! The owner is the kindest and her staff are incredibly sweet. Definitely recommend everyone support Buenas. And often! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The dough is high quality, and they have plenty of flavorful filling. I also appreciate the effort in making new innovative fillings available, which are perfect to share with family and friends.Bonus for me was to find you in a specially difficult time of the year in Boston for Latin American foreigners (hint: dark, cold, gloomy winter), and just walking into your cozy business and seeing products and words such as “chimichurri”, “pebre” and “alfajor” truly warmed my heart.Thank you. Keep up with the good work!
