Unfortunately I didn’t take pictures of all my food from this restaurant, but it was absolutely amazing. But I’m reviewing this because I just tasted their churros and it’s by far the best churro I’ve ever had!!!! Understand, I tried this churro after having it sit for over an hour since purchase and it’s still the best I’ve ever had. I’ve been all over this world and had churros, these are the best. Luckily I got a picture of the churro. Oh yeah, they make really good empanadas too! Handmade, fresh, made-to-order!!! I’ll be eating here often!Parking: The location is in a busy warehouse district so parking is pretty much unavailable, but it’s still worth it to go.

Love the Empandas and Fries

I was skeptical at first, but can now verify the empanadas are authentic! The traditional beef has the egg and olive (iykyk!) as expected and is delicious! Their recipe is so close to my family's, which makes me nostalgic and want to go back! I am happy to support this business and give a 5 star review. I like that you can order pre-made empanadas to take home or uncooked sets of empanadas to take home and freeze for making later. The variety is great and prices reasonable considering empanada-making is time consuming. Their desserts are also delicious. Highly recommend! As an aside, I had a great customer service experience once. I had a pre-order I was unable to pick up and their customer service was kind and understanding. They fully refunded me. This is a great business to support and enjoy, especially if you are a foodie.

The empanadas were not that great. I think I had too much expectation that it would be just like in Argentina.. The empanadas were fried, not baked.

Five Stars for Empanadas de Mendoza! Fantastico!I am always thrilled to see the Empanadas De Mendoza food truck! The staff are always super friendly and welcoming. The food is made to order is always cooked perfectly! The empanadas are filled to the brim and packed with flavor. The chimichurri fries are delightful and the alfajores are so light!

This place has awesome empanadas and great french-fries.We've been to both of their restaurants and also ordered from the food truck. The honey BBQ, pineapple chicken and spicy beef are my favorites. The spicy beef have a pretty good kick to them. The staff are helpful and friendly.

Ended up here because the AC was broken in the place we’d originally chosen for lunch. I have to say, this is one of the BEST accidental discoveries! The food here is fantastic and they make everything fresh when you order it. The chorizo is super tasty and I think I could eat the fries every day. I will definitely be returning and I recommend you try it!

I placed my online order at 11:45am for their food truck and was told I wouldn’t get my order until 1:15pm despite their line being short. I ordered two empanadas and fries so a very small order to fill. When I went to the food truck early I was told my order couldn’t be filled until the time I was given despite them filling numerous walk up orders. All while I sat there and waited for my order time. I haven’t even tried the food yet, but I know it isn’t worth the hassle or very long wait. I never leave reviews, but I want to make sure to warn people to just order in person or prepare for a SIGNIFICANT wait for no reason, if you order online.They should really switch to fulfilling online orders as people show up to the food truck to pick up the order instead of providing pick up times and not giving the option to chose ASAP.

These were hands down the BEST empanadas I have ever had. The dough was so light and fluffy and the fillings were delicious (beef, ham & cheese, humita) and the chimi fries were sooo good. perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I can't wait for them to come back to my office building!!

The Empanadas were amazing but the guy running the food truck at Poplar tree today had a poor attitude.Don't need to talk down to people asking about where to pickup pre-ordered food. If you don't want to talk to people, put a frickin sign on the truck and point to it.Vegetarian options: Cheese and Spinach.

A Taste of Argentina: Unforgettable Empanadas from Empanadas de MendozaI recently had the pleasure of experiencing the exceptional catering services provided by Gabi and her restaurant, Empanadas de Mendoza. I hired Gabi to cater lunch for my office, and I couldn't be happier with my decision. From the very beginning, Gabi was incredibly helpful in guiding me through the selection process for the perfect combination of empanadas to suit everyone's tastes, including a vegan option.The empanadas and churros that Gabi prepared were simply amazing, with the spicy beef empanada being a standout favorite. It's been three days since the lunch, and my colleagues are still raving about the deliciousness of the empanadas. I can confidently say that I will be ordering from Gabi again in the future!Gabi's passion for sharing her culture and love for empanadas began in 2013 at a local farmers market, where she introduced her hometown of Mendoza, Argentina's favorite treat. Empanadas, for Gabi, symbolize family, friends, and fun. Gabi's dedication to her craft and her passion for sharing her culture truly shine through in the exquisite food she prepares.If you haven't yet experienced Empanadas de Mendoza, I highly recommend giving them a try. Gabi's delicious empanadas are sure to make any event truly unforgettable.
