I loved the BEC and HEC 2 Empanadas & Side with the tater squares. (I'm not a huge fan of regular tater tots, but these are delicious!!!) The dough for the empanadas was perfect & I got the Strawber Cheesecake Empanadary for dessert. It's so good. The empanadas are on the smaller side and makes it so you can get 2-3 for a variety of fillings! Highly recommend!! I will absolutely be back.

The sandwich was good it's a regular sized sandwich a good portion for one had two nice thinly fried chicken cutlets, i would recommend having the lettuce and tomato on the side so the lettuce isn't hot and wilted by the time it gets to you. The empanada was okay, i feel if it had less salt it would've been amazing. But personally i wouldn't get the tater squares again they were a bit too oily and kind of hard to eat. I would try this place again :)

These are the best empanadas I have ever had. My food was so fresh and delicious. The price was very reasonable. There are some fantastic restaurants in Columbia, but this fills a hole I didn't even realize was missing. EJ 2Step Caterers and Cafe is going to the top of my rotation. 10/10 will be ordering again!!!

I just moved from Tampa FL and this food made me think I was back. The empanadas and Street Corn were great, especially the Carne Asada. The empanadas were not huge, but they were packed full with meat, which more than made up for it. Food was fresh and warm when we got it. I'll absolutely be getting them again, probably regularly.

Very small for the price. Two for $5 would be more appropriate. Taste if fine. Also pics do not represent the actual products as the garlic rolls shows two rolls but only received one.
