Qué rico! Superb food. Excellent service.
I had the Gaucho burger and ohmahgah! The flavors all popped but didn’t overpower. They all worked brilliantly together to create a tasty symphony in my tum tum. I wish I had more time and/or space in my stomach to try other dishes. This burger was a-mazing!
The food truck is owned and operated by a married couple (as you might infer from the name) who are just so personable and outgoing. I chatted with them for a bit while awaiting my food and they were so cool to talk with. The entire experience was quite enjoyable and delicious. And yes, they are bilingual. It’s not just a catchy name. So you can order in English or Spanish or a mixture of both.
The food truck has a semi-permanent home, but it also heads out to festivals and live events when called upon. If you see the big yellow truck, head on over for a food experience you’ll be telling your friends about.

Always happy to see the Gaucho & the Gringa food truck. I have enjoyed all the menu items I’ve tried - their tasty empanadas with their special dipping sauce and burgers too!

I love that G&G always uses the most local, fresh ingredients available, even their own home grown tomatoes! Their buns are amazing, they’re from a local bakery out of Cleveland and never disappoint. They get their grass-fed beef from a local farmer too. The black bean burger is my favorite; the Gringa herself makes the black bean patties from scratch and they are deeeeelish. The fries are fresh cut & meticulously cooked to perfection every time. The Gaucho is a true Argentinian chef and the recipes reflect it—the empanadas & chimi especially! Sad to see the end of the season, but already excited for when they reopen in spring!
Dietary restrictions: So many good vegetarian & vegan options!

I ordered the beef empanadas. They were $4.50 each so my expectations were high. It was the smallest empanada I've ever seen. The beef filing was very bland, nothing but ground beef.

I ate here three times with my boys during a 3-day trip to Cedar Point in October. The crowds were sometimes huge, with long food waits all over the park. This might have been a slightly longer wait than other trucks, but not by a lot. The cost for a meal is about the same all over the park, and I don’t think is controlled by the food truck operators; a meal in the park will be more expensive no matter where you get it from. The food was better than everything else we had in the park - pretty darn good and interesting burgers. And, the owner/operators of the truck (the actual “gaucho” and “gringa”) were there in person, working really hard with the crazy crowds. Despite this, they remained the nicest ,most friendly, and helpful people, funny and cheery up to the end when everyone was ready to collapse. Thanks for adding to our great trip - Cheers!

Maybe they’re terrific when not at Cedar Point? Unique looking- advertised an Argentine influence to the food. Ordered a dog with spicy mustard and didn’t expect French’s yellow. ? Very slow service- I don’t mind that when folks seem like they’re working hard to get it to you.
Great food and customer service!
Just tried their choripapas. Sooo delicious! One of the best food truck dishes I’ve ever had!
