I ordered 150 mini pasteles at last minute around 12:30pm and they called me at 3:45pm letting me know they were ready to be picked up. I got 75 chicken and 75 beef . They tasted really good and everyone enjoyed them.

My office orders from here all of the time. Their empanadas are the best we've ever had, especially the chicken. You need to call ahead to order them because they are made fresh.
