They say your first time is the best time and that’s what I can say for this place. Me and my girlfriend came here and we can agree these were the best empanadas of all time and that’s saying a lot cuz we eat nothing but empanadas lol. Alan was really hospitable and explained everything that goes into his business especially being in this industry for over 20 years. I wish him the best on his future endeavors. And we will be back soon

I had a wonderful experience at The Gringo. The service was excellent — the staff is extremely friendly, welcoming, and truly great people. The atmosphere is very pleasant, comfortable, and well taken care of. The empanadas were amazing, very well made and delicious. They even offered me a great cup of coffee, which really shows how much they care about their customers. I definitely recommend this place and will be coming back!

The perfect spot for a quick brunch when the day gets busy. Just the right kind of light fuel to keep you going. I literally saw the guy making the empanadas right there, and it took me straight back to Argentina. Hecho con alma, como allá. A real trip to la ciudad de la furia. Because in the end, authenticity beats trends. Always.

Best local spot in town! Family owned, Freshly baked empanadas, ice cold beer and good music! Alan the owner/chef is pretty cute too!
