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.

Forget the restaurant chains in downtown Delray Beach. Head south down SE 5th Avenue for the best empanadas in the area. My wife, eight-year-old daughter, and I went on a Saturday morning in July. Here’s our experience.

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!

Finally made it here after seeing this place on the Brennan Taylor YouTube channel! Really glad we did. Super good empanadas and friendly people/service not only there but at the thrift shop next door SoFlo Finds! We tried one each of the Carne, Cuban, Buffalo, Messi, and Birria. All were good with the Birria and Cuban being my favs. Highly recommend, and support small local business!

What a very cool place with outstanding empanadas. We rolled with the Burris that’s pulled beef, cheese with Burris sauce. Excellent flavor and perfect crunch. The Cubano style was also packed with flavor but the favorite was the Carne ground beef, peppers, onions, and chimichurri sauce was it’s amazing. Washed them down with a tropical smoothie and then ordered a dozen mix to go from the weekend “the kit has 4 types and cooking instructions. If your in east Delray check it out.
