FiDi Down To Two Ruben’s Empanadas

rubens closed sign

The Nassau St. location of Ruben’s Empanadas between John & Fulton St. was not only closed, but completely gutted when I walked by yesterday. It’s not entirely surprising since it seems to be mostly empty even during prime lunch time. Never fear, though: As the sign says there’s another location on Fulton St. and one on Pearl just off Hanover Sq. to feed your empanada cravings.

    Ruben’s Empanadas have never been good anyway. I don’t know anyone in my entire office who likes them. The crust is dry and crumbly, and the fillings aren’t flavorful. I always figured they were selling weed out of the back or something, because I couldn’t imagine anyone choosing to eat there.

    I agree — the dough is too thick. And I once made the mistake of trying their gazpacho. Blech!
