The new restaurant is Latin American and Spanish. They are serving up some delicious Empanadas right now. We've tasted the cheese steak, the spinach and mushroom, and the sausage, peppers and onions Empanadas. Delicious!

We love when we have something new to try out. Support this family, grab an Empanada for lunch or dinner, you will love it. I'm so excited to check out their full menu when they open. Much luck to this new restaurant. Bayville definitely needs more restaurants and more choices for dinner.
