1 Baklava & 1 Ice Cream Scoop
Heather P.

Had a great early dinner at The Empanada Stop...absolutely delicious! Everything was made with fresh ingredients, and the service was incredible. This place is truly a hidden gem. We ordered a garden salad, empanadas, and a pastrami sandwich with house-made chips. They also let us sample the house soup and the ice cream and baklava, which were both amazing. We loved the soup so much we took some home for later. The prices are very affordable for the quality of food you get. Highly recommend!

Smashburger

The menu was so big and everything sounded delicious so I did the American thing and got a burger. It was absolutely delicious and I really enjoyed the different bread for the bun! It was super juicy and moist and flavorful. Didn't love the tiramisu but that's alright, the chips on the side of my burger were good instead, super smokey instead of salty which was new!

Beef Empanadas, dipping sauce is heavenly
Courtney P.

It's hard to imagine how a place can get such high reviews until you try it and then it all makes sense. Stopped by recently and immediately knew it would be a favorite of ours. Pastrami sandwich is one of the best sandwiches in all of Portland, definitely one of my favorite meals in town. We've also had the tri-tip and the prime rib, both were amazing too but the tri-tip had a nice bright flavor with the delicious aioli and peppers. Everything is always fresh and house made, all of it super flavorful. Beef empanadas are incredible with a fresh chimichurri. On top of all that, they're always super nice with great service. Can't recommend enough!

Cauliflower Soup
Johnny L.

Great Experience! Tony owner/manager/front of the house and team took care of business Clean, nice space Empanadas were good.. I would've preferred a little more flaky.. the beef was the best.. dipping sauces were a red sauce and an olive oil base Soup sample was perfect.. nice broth with cauliflower that tasted as if you were fine dining Baklava Ice Cream was outstanding.. perfect portion, flaky Baklava with creamy vanilla ice cream Will be back to try their sandwiches and burgers.. they look incredible

Autumn Soup (butternut squash) and homemade bread
Emily L.

This is the 2nd time we've eaten at Empanada Stop. The food is fantastic! The 1st time we were given a sample of the house soup (cauliflower & cashew) and also the baklava. After that sample, I knew I would order it this time. It is so creamy & smooth, and tastes like a light cheese soup. So yummy on a cold PNW day. The beef empanadas are so good, lightly seasoned and not at all greasy. The chimichurri sauce adds a little herby spicy kick to it. They now have a butternut squash soup which we tried. Also smooth & creamy and mildly spiced. The owner is very warm and friendly. Service is very fast and the dining area is bright and clean. Restroom is clean as well. We enjoyed all the food and will definitely be back!

Smash burger
Tom B.

First time in. Super clean. Order at counter. Host very friendly and helpful Pastrami sandwich. Homemade bread, delish. Good pastrami. Plenty of sauerkraut. Because the bread is so fluffy, could use more thousand island, maybe. Comes with homemade barbecue chips. Good Smash burger. Again, homemade bun. Well cooked burger. Very tasty. Chips also. Host brought a small serving of pistachio baklava with ice cream. Yum. Like most other reviewers, no complaints

Pistachio treat with vanilla ice cream.
Ann W.

Freshest and most flavorful pastrami sandwich I've ever eaten! Enjoyed the taste test of Creamy Cauliflower soup, regretting not getting a bowl! I will be back for more. The surprise pistachio treat and vanilla ice cream was a grand finale to the meal. Tony was phenomenal, best customer care I've had in a restaurant in a very long time. Thank you

Chicken sandwich was decent but empanadas are definitely a pass here. I wouldn't go out of my way for this place. Much better food options in the nearby food halls / food truck parks.

Macro Bowl, vegetarian
Emily B.

I really enjoyed the Macro Bowl, it was delicious and very saucy! The staff was very nice and welcoming. Inside is a little gray and lacking decor but still inviting :)

I love these...

We've been meaning to come here for a while. Because the place looks intriguing and well organized. We finally made it in and it's as clean and organized on the inside as it is on the outside. Everything we sampled was delicious including the baklava. Customer service was excellent, friendly, and helpful and explained everything to us in detail. There is enough seating that you shouldn't have an issue finding a seat, and plenty of parking outside. There are so many items on the menu that look delicious, that I will be back multiple times to try everything.

Baklava
George M.

Heard the hype about this place on our local Nextdoor app. Wow were they right! Place is excellent. Their empanada plate with the Caesar salad with chicken tinga empanadas was great. Finish with their homemade baklava and you will be leaving happy. So much more to try. Nice to have a great place to go when hungry.

Amanda S.

Quite a few of my friends and colleagues recommended stopping by here. They offer so many great vegan options. The food is VERY fresh tasting and well made. Everything I tried was incredible! The owner Tony is a very pleasant person who made sure to speak with and great all of his customers. The location itself Is very clean and you can tell they care about it the way it looks. I HIGHLY recommend stopping by! You'll be happy you did! Headed there now for my second time already! This place is EXACTLY what Gresham needed :-)

So, I'm from Hawaii. I worked at a Hawaii burger chain for almost 20 years... moving to Oregon and…read moreI constantly ask, where's a good burger? No one ever really has an answer. So I search yelp, and I've seen these guys on my DoorDash ordering page. I got off work early one day and a friend mentioned that there is Hawaii food at "THE FORK" so I went over, I didn't care for the Hawaiian food truck (sorry no offense) because... well I smelled burgers. I smelt juicy beef coming from a vent. I turned around and what do you know? It's a burger cart!!! The worker in the food cart looked young, and I remembered when I was 14 I was flipping burgers myself. I checked out the menu, I found my favorite burger on it. MUSHROOMS AND SWISS CHEESE! And who doesn't love a good ole smash burger? I even ordered fries. I splurged a little. It all came out to about $18? The worker was friendly, food was timely. I walked my dog and myself around the vicinity and got a boba and my buzzer went off and I went straight home to eat the burger. It was so juicy, and yes greasy too. What do you expect? It's a BURGER! A greasy ole burger. My favorite food item. The fries were yummy and I honestly sat there with my double patties mushroom Swiss burger with the veggies and I just felt so darn happy. It made me miss being back in Hawaii for a minute because honestly I ate a burger every chance I got back home. But I can't wait to treat myself again. Such a good pick and only 5 minutes from my house. Who would have thought a food cart stop would be an amazing place for a yummy burger?!

The guy told us he was the only other person who worked there besides the owner he did a great good…read moreburger was fresh and delicious Now let's talk about the smash sauce hmmm got me wanting some fried fish hint but if in Portland I would definitely suggest giving it a try
