what a great treat today! The food is fresh and delicious. We tried the empanadas specifically the chicken and cheese, both were packed with flavor. They played relaxing music, and the restaurant was very clean. We met Tony at the register. He was very informative for all of our questions, and stopped by our table a few times to check on us. Can't wait to come by here again. read more

This little sandwich shop is doing it right! Everything is fresh and deliciously prepared. I'm assuming it was the owner, who greeted us and brought us samples of a delicious soup while we waited. He is very attentive and thoughtful. We also appreciated the place being so nicely clean. When our sandwiches arrived, we were pleasantly surprised to have such large servings, high quality food, and the taste! OMG!!! I had the seared ahi sandwich and my hubby had the burger with an egg on top. Both sandwiches were so juicy. We are already talking about coming back tomorrow! I wish him the best of luck and look forward to coming back! read more

The food is ok. I would not got out of my way for it. The beef empanada was very bland.

Just gave Empanada Stop a try for dinner. Holy smokes you guys! Don't sleep on this gem of a place. First, the service is outstanding- Tony was personable and you can tell takes real pride in his food. We had the tri tip sandwich, the macro bowl, and a beef empanada. Literally everything on the menu is house made including the chips, the bread is baked fresh, the sauces... and it shows! This was one of the best meals I've had in a while- I already can't wait to return. read more

The Empanada Stop is my FAVORITE restaurant! They do it right by making everything from scratch! My favorite is their smash burger and my husband loves the pastrami sandwich! They're open until 9pm, so a late dinner is a delicious option! They provide quick, efficient service whenever we go there! It's got a comfortable, happy atmosphere, too! You can't get better than this! read more

Delicious food! I came in to order some food to go and everyone that left while I was there made a point to let the staff know how much they enjoyed their meal. Garden salad was amazing, has fresh herbs like mint and chives & the dressing was really good!! Got beef and chicken empanadas, both very good. The house soup is a cauliflower cashew soup, you need to try it. Friendly service, clean and bright space. read more

Was here again today. We try to make it in weekly. Excellent food and friendly people. Have never had anything that wasn't delicious.

Yes yes yes My first time and I was not disappointed--Will definitely be going back. The staff is friendly and answered all my questions. Tinga Chicken for the win The soup sample was to die for; some kind of curry cauliflower that left me wanting more. The space was open and clean with lots of natural light; very inviting. read more

Everything was so amazing, hot, flavorful and fresh. They have really good chimichurri sauce to go with it. Not expensive either. Tony was so kind to us and treated us to a dessert after we ate.

I found this pretty awesome spot a couple weeks ago and now I'm back, if you haven't done so yet check out Empanada Stop, over on 242nd and Stark. Seriously, everything they make in-house is just... really top notch delicious. If you're into it, their pastrami is something else, nothing better local and the baklava is absolutely stellar! The whole vibe there is super chill too, with friendly folks and a very attentive knowledgeable owner. Just a really pleasant place to grab some amazing food and super clean with an open kitchen. Kid approved! read more

Stopped here on a whim and the reviews don't lie: everything was so good! We got pastrami sandwiches, a tri tip sandwich, and empanadas, and there wasn't a miss here. Everything is made in house, like the sauces and bread. The owner Tony was so hospitable and great to chat with. Gave us some samples of soup and baklava to try, which were both delicious. Thanks so much Tony! read more

Best food I've had in Gresham. We had Macro Bowl, pastrami sandwich, beef empanadas, kids burger. Everything was delicious and worth the money. We did a take out order. read more

The smash burger is so delicious that you won't be able to put it down once you pick it up. Tony and everyone that works there- they're all gems. We are so grateful all around for this spot. Easily our family's absolute favorite in Gresham, Troutdale, and the whole county honestly, by a long shot. There is something special about family run restaurants. Thank you Empanada Stop!!! read more

Wow! This place is beyond amazing! I had the Macro bowl which was the most delicious meal I've had in ages. Perfectly roasted baby carrots and cauliflower on top of deliciously seasoned couscous and lentils with an incredible sauce, plus half an avocado with a fried egg on top! The service was outstanding and they gave everyone who dined in a free dessert of walnut baklava, and vanilla ice cream. Superb! read more

Service was excellent. Food was fresh and well made. I had the chicken tuna sandwich and it was AMAZING. The sauce in that sandwich pairs SO well with the Ahi. Ahi was also seared perfectly. I also got the Jade smoothie. Very delicious. I would come here again. Oh! The on-site menu has a couple items not featured on their website. I also love that there is a kid-friendly menu. read more

This was an OUTSTANDING experience! The food was amazing, and the service was off the charts great. Simply my best restaurant visit this year for a Fast/Casual restaurant. read more

Love this place! Food is good, fast and friendly service. I love the grilled chicken club.

Second time visiting this week. This place is so wonderful. Nothing makes me happier than good people making good food and this place is nailing it. All the empanadas are great, even the vegan ones. Tri-tip sandwich is legit as are the burgers. Vegan soup is great. Homemade chips and pickles... So good, but the pickles are the stealth unexpected awesomeness. Walnut baklava is the perfect balance of sweetness without being sticky or gooey. All served up by folks who are clearly passionate about what they're doing. Couldn't recommend it highly enough. read more

What a surprise... fantastic food and not just Empanadas. The cashew soup, seared tuna sandwich and vegan empanada were huge hits. Tony, the owner, makes everything fresh including the rolls and chips. He was so friendly and gave our whole group a baklava before we could leave. Don't miss this one! read more

Wow! Food was amazing. Service was somehow even better. They make everything in house and it sure tastes like it. The kids have already convinced my husband to take us back again for lunch tomorrow and my mom and I have plans to go next week. I'm vegan and was so excited that they not only have plenty of vegan menu items but they can also make other things vegan. I had the vegan empanadas and Jade smoothie- both delicious. Excited to try the umami burger when we go back. Everyone else in my family was fighting over the soup because it was so good (it's not vegan so I couldn't try it) They also devoured the baklava and ice cream! My kids liked the strawberry banana based smoothie (don't remember the name) and my husband really liked the prime rib sandwich. They treated us like family and we will not wait to go back. 10/10 recommend this place read more

honestly, this is techinically a 3.5/5 the sandwhiches were literally mid, and chips were like weird, even though i truly only tried the chips way later i sampled a soup, planning on getting some next time! hope my review will make me desire the place for the soup more also theres baklava! and black coffee! read more

The food is amazing! I've had multiple things on the menu and everything I've tried has been delicious. The owners are super nice and quick with getting food out to the customers. read more

No free water. Boo. Had a beef and chicken empanada. Beef was so-so, no flavoring. Chicken was good. But the thick pastry of the empanada made it seem too dry. I'm a foodie and had WAY better empanadas. Kids didn't like the pita bread vs hamburger bun for the kids cheeseburger. Wife loved the cheesy cauliflower, tomato soup--I did not. Wife had a macado bowl--it was pretty damn good and healthy. Papa had a tri tip sandwich--he didn't have much to say about it. Loved the home made chips. The Jade smoothie just tasted like banana. It was pricey. I had high expectations from the reviews. Disappointed (kids were thirsty--didn't want to pay $2/soda can. Didn't want to pay $3 for bottle of water. read more

Really good food (had chicken empanadas, baklava, cashew soup), fast and kind service-- so pleased they're in Gresham!

This place was great! Amazing consumer service, and the food was delicious as well! Definitely recommend!

So glad I checked them out! The food was amazing, and they were super nice. They even gave us some free samples to try. The place is on the smaller side, probably more focused on takeout, but it's super clean with several tables inside and some nice picnic tables outside if you want to eat there. Probably the worst thing about it is the name, which really doesn't represent the menu, and suggests Mexican (which it isn't). Absolutely check it out for yourself. read more

Outstanding sandwich shop with delicious house made ingredients. With extra helping superior service . It's a must try!

I would give this place a 10 but there aren't that many stars. Tony, the owner, is an amazing guy. He said his three goals when he opened the restaurant were 1.good food, 2.friendly and helpful service and 3. A clean restaurant. He knocked it out of the park. My wife and I had a great lunch. I will definitely eat here again when we are in town. Great job Tony and it was awesome to meet you. Bob read more

Very good service and food. The empanadas were good and the pastrami sandwich was excellent

Empanadas were crispy with delicious fillings and the backlava was a fun treat, but I have to mention the cashew-cauliflower soup and salad sides on the empanada samplers. The garden salad was rich with avacado, cucumber, and radish. The soup was seasoned so expertly. A friendly man in a power wheelchair was tootling by and we had a chat. He said to get the soup and was happy I already had a bowl, you must try it. Owner was courteous and helpful. Will be back! read more

First time visit. Delicious fresh home cooked empanadas. Sampled the cauliflower cashew soup and it was also delicious. The pistachio baklava is a must for a light finish to lunch. read more
