"There are an overwhelming amount of baked goods to choose here. But you’re coming to this classic bakery for the Venezuelan empanadas. Get the one stuffed with queso or pabellón, and then make the very easy commute across the narrow restaurant to one of the high-top tables, locate the wonderful house sauce, and be careful not to burn your tongue off. Try biting little holes in the corners and blowing the steam out like you’re playing an empanada saxophone before you bite in. There’s not much ambiance inside the narrow space, so cross the street and eat with a view of the ocean." - ryan pfeffer, mariana trabanino, virginia otazo
"You’re dehydrated and sun drunk so let’s keep this simple. Ignore the army of pastries in this little bakery on Collins and ask for the Venezuelan empanadas. Then make the very easy commute across the narrow restaurant to one of the high-top tables, locate the wonderful house sauce, and be careful not to burn your tongue off. Get the one stuffed with queso or pabellón and, if you want to save your tongue from some serious trauma, try biting little holes in the corners and blowing the steam out like you’re playing an empanada saxophone." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
"Moises is such a classic that it felt weird leaving them out, and we almost did. Why? Well, they don’t fry their empanadas to order, so the empanadas here can occasionally fall victim to sogginess. But that can also be a good thing if you’re in a rush and don’t have time to wait around. The bakery is literally across the street from the beach too, and won’t judge you for walking in with sandy shoes. And even though they’re not fried to order, they’re still really good. The dough has a sweet touch, and the carne mechada is juicy and perfect." - julia malave
"With over 30 years in the area, this Venezuelan bakery with European flair has made its mark. Moises Bakery offers empanadas from Venezuela, Chile (typically with a folded, not crimped edge), and Argentina for those feeling indecisive." - Alona Martinez
"In a sea of croissants and eclairs lies Moises, a bakery that closely resembles one that could be found in Venezuela almost ten years ago. Moises makes all the Venezuelan favorites like cachitos (ham filled crescent rolls), arepas, empanadas, tequenos, and cakes, and even sells imported snacks." - Amber Love Bond
