Very nice little deli where I had the chicken salad salad. It was fresh and tasty and we were given very good service. We also tried the espresso and a latte and both were very nice. A nice place for a quick lunch or a breakfast. read more

Wonderful breakfast and lunch spot. The food is really fresh. The spicy beef empanadas are the best! Tip: purchase frozen empanadas to cook at home (air fryer I found to have the best results vs baking in the oven). Their desserts are super good, especially the little deluce de leche cookies. The salads are very fresh. The bread is soft and fresh on the migas sandwiches and the triple chicken/avocado/tomato sandwiches. Coffee is great too. Service is what one would expect at a casual neighborhood deli. read more

We had breakfast here with our family. The coffee's were really good. There are a ton of cool choices on the menu. The empanadas were amazing. We also ordered a cake for our daughter's birthday. It was excellent! There are also a ton of wines and other authentic dry foods to buy as well. Really enjoyed the Argentina decor near the back. read more

Great food BUT the cash reg is very sneak. We stopped with our kids for breakfast and add a couple of things from the market and they inclu the tip base on our food PLUS what we got in the market. CHEATING! Buena comida pero muy sin vergüenzas que no aprecian a que el cliente regrese. Luego de desayunar con nuestros niños compramos una cosas en el mercadito y cobraron el tip en base a el total! o sea el desayuno más el nercado . Yo tengo negocio y nunca le haria algo así a mi cliente. read more

We stopped by after the beach to get a quick afternoon snack and it hit the spot! My husband is obsessed with Argentinian food and there was so much we didn't try, so we will be back! I love that they sell items you can't just find at any store from Latin America! There's a super warm, vibrant and cozy atmosphere that we loved! We will be back for breakfast. The juice, croissant, and sandwich we tried were all delicious and the service was great! read more

Excellent bread for prosciutto sandwich. COLD French fries. Very good casadia. Service is spotty. Was there for late lunch. No table silver or napkin with sandwich. Tiny napkins on table dispenser. Mango milkshake was nice. Maybe saving for big restaurant attached. read more

This wonderful restaurant/deli is open for breakfast & lunch featuring Peruvian, Argentinian, & American meals. We have been here twice and really like the place. It is owned and managed by the same couple that owns the highly popular El Gaucho Inca Restaurants in Fort Myers and Estero. The Empanadas especially are truly delicious, plump with substantial filling and not too much surrounding dough. The Cafe Con Leche is also excellent. Food: 5 stars Location: 4 stars Ambiance/Décor: 5 stars Value: 5 stars Service: 4 stars read more

Today with my family we visit Estero in Florida, a beautiful, colorful and peaceful place. One of our places to explore was El gaucho Inca deli Cafe, an excellent selection of Argentine, Peruvian and Cuban products. Authentic Argentine and Peruvian dishes, great variety, including matambre, a meat and vegetable roll, which is cut into thin slices and also eaten in sandwiches. The pleasant surprise was the dulce de leche of their own preparation and the sugar-free version. If you visit El gaucho Inca for other delicacies, do not leave without the dulce de leche, you will appreciate the recommendation. read more

The ambiance was nice, like your neighborhood breakfasts spot. read more

Food is always over the top. Very good, no matter what you order. Been going to the El Gaucho Deli and restaurant for over a year and a half. I have lived all over the world and the US. These two locations, in the same strip mall, are fabulous. Adult and family friendly in both locations. We go regularly and try something different and never disappoints. Lots of food , so plan for some good leftovers. Recommend buying some of sandwiches, Cubans, ham and cheese croissants, desserts. over the top too! Very friendly service in both locations-with very little turnover.....so must be nice to work at the two locations. The restaurant ambiance is upscale and family friendly. lots of fun. Can not go wrong trying them out . read more

Had a lovely lunch, with a coripán sandwich and a green smoothie. Cute ambiance, with a nicely curated store section.

Excellent service and hands down the best cafe con leche I have ever had ! We got avocado toast , frappe coffee , Argentinian sausage and avocados . They also sell wines and market items . 4 stars because they need to add healthy options like fruit or oats or whole wheat bread . read more

The Croissant. Oh. Muh. Goodness. I'm a #teambreakfast person and love anything-eggs. I meant to order the ham and cheese croissant with eggs, but forgot to mention the main ingredient eggs. How dare me, right?! Thankfully, the H&C was perfection on its own. The croissant was perfectly flaky and buttery and the ham and gooey melted cheese was so delicious. I paired it with a fresh juice, strawberry and papaya without sweetener, and that was refreshing. My guest tried an Argentinian breakfast sandwich with pork and said it was stellar! The ambiance is perfect, the deli is clean as can be, and was a great spot for my business breakfast for two. The service was also great! The gal, whose name is escaping me, was knowledgeable about the menu and extremely kind. Here's a snap of my new favorite breakfast croissant:) read more

Amazing choices - very reasonable prices - good fast service - the only issue is that the cook never heard of "over easy" eggs hmmmm

Amazing food and great service. They have tamales and pan con chicharron just like in Perú. The sandwiches are Delish and my favorite was the salmon bagel was on point. The dessert are delicious too. read more

I had tried the restaurant for dinner and it was fabulous so we decided to try the deli Café for lunch. They have daily specials. my friend tried the breakfast burrito. The sausage were a nice size link, sliced perfectly with eggs and cheese and a nice burrito toasted nicely. I tried the royal hamburger. it was massive two patties and egg lettuce and tomato. Both meals were delicious. The only thing I would say is their iced tea came out of a bottle so that's the only thing we were disappointed that they don't have freshly made iced tea. read more

So I've been here before with positive experiences. Also I have ate at the restaurant multiple times for dinner. Went for take out lunch with my mom, sadly a lackluster experience this time. We're a Peruvian/Argentinian family so a ton of experience with the food...to start with my mom's Butifarra sandwich...it really wasn't one. The ham was an incorrect style, probably best for Cuban sandwiches and the amount of condiments light, but the bread was delicious. I ordered a Choripan...I've ate these all my life, from Rosario, Argentina to CA to FL...my lord...it was lacking...the bread though tasty was too large for the thin chorizos they placed. Also the amount of chimichuri was like a tablespoon. So it covered nothing. Almost tasted like I was eating bread with chorizo flavoring with a hint of chimichuri. Like come on, it's a super cheap thing to make, please spare more than that to enjoy the darn sandwich. If ya need pointers to improve this basic Argentine sandwich let me know! I make my own chimichuri, love to do parrilladas and for a fraction of the price I can probably blow your socks off. So please, fix the ratio and don't skimp on the chimichuri please!!! Aside from that, again I've had plenty of good experiences at lunch here, the staff were nice and the place clean and dinner in the same plaza is always great and odds are I'll continue coming for dinner. read more

El Gaucho Deli Cafe - The chorizo might look huge there but they were flatter than the bread and the amount of chimichuri... - Peruvian Near Me - Estero, Florida

Went with family for a Sunday brunch . 2 kids and 4. Adults . Kids had the pizza . Was delicious , adults had a variety. Cuban sandwich , and other chicken dishes . Everyone had some to take home ! Hit and delicious ! Also took home a cake for a birthday - forget the name but was crusted with crushed meringue and meringues on the top . White cake with a thick Carmel center and really good not too sweet vanilla filling . Prob one of the best cakes I have ever bought . We will definitely go back ! read more

Good, service, both excellent!. Take a chance and try something different, you'll love it!

Fantastic brunch spot. They bake all their empanadas daily and they're easily my favorite in SWFL. Delicious pastries, deserts, and amazing coffee. read more

Fabulous food! Went for lunch today. Sampled an assortment of delicious empanadas, then ordered a pizzetta which is a flatbread pizza. They should add bakery to the name since they have fresh baked pastries and cakes as well. Planning to go for breakfast since they offer American, Peruvian and Argentinian options. Open from 8am-5 pm for breakfast, lunch, early dinner and takeout. !Riquiiisimo! read more

My wife and I decided to try this place. We entered and saw that only two other tables were full, so no worries. We sat ourselves and then waited and waited - no services for roughly five minutes. Mind you, three people were behind the counter, and one of the waitresses could not get off her phone. We finally decided to leave when I told the waitress that their customer service was lacking. She turned to the other waitress and began to talk about me - not realizing I was SPANISH and understood everything they said. When I finally told the manager - a week after I left numerous phone messages - she said she would talk to them--never apologized. I will be honest and say that I would have, at a minimum, expected a free lunch - but nothing - not even the basic apology. Not a good look. read more

I gave this great deli a 3 star for lack of customer service. As you come into the deli there is no welcoming or sitting assistance. Suggest the ownership provides training to their staff. Otherwise, good food. read more
