The Gringo is a delightful empanada shop in Delray Beach, owned by Chef Alan Solari Brown and his wife, Kimberly. Chef Alan, originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina, brings his culinary expertise from top restaurants and high-end hotels across the U.S. Since opening in March 2022, The Gringo has quickly become a local favorite, renowned for its baked-to-order Argentinian-style empanadas featuring a flaky, buttery crust. Each empanada is crafted by hand and baked in a special Italian oven, ready in under three minutes. With a diverse range of flavors—from classic carne (ground beef) and Cuban to buffalo chicken and truffle mac and cheese, even a dessert option with dulce de leche—there’s something to satisfy every craving.

Reviews
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!
1) Food: The owner Allen makes fresh Argentinian empanadas in 12 flavors, including a vegan option and sweet one. The savory empanadas range from classic to more American inspired like the Cheeseburger Empanada.
We ordered the Carne Empanada and Spicy BBQ Pork Empanada. Both were excellent- full of flavor, fresh, and so good. We ended up ordering an extra Carne one because our daughter loved it too.
They also sell smoothies and acai bowls. We all enjoyed the Acai Nutella Bowl with raspberries, bananas, and more. (Ask for extra spoons to share.)
2) Drinks: They sell coffee drinks like lattes and cafe con leche and Coca-Cola products. Three kinds of beers are on the menu too.
3) Service: Allen runs the entire shop. He’s kind and passionate about the business he’s building for his family. Food comes out quickly.
4) Space: Inside a tiny space within a building with local shops and murals, The Gringo comes with a tiny window where you order. A few picnic tables are nearby with umbrellas for shade.
So far, The Gringo is the best food experience we’ve had in Delray Beach!
