Good store Usually just come for their marinated meats. I've tried their carne asada, pork ribs, and chicken. All very good and good prices too. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Workers are helpful and store is clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will keep coming back. read more

I've been coming to El Gaucho Meat Market for over 20 years, and it's still one of my favorite spots. The quality has always been consistent, and you can tell they really take pride in what they do. The empanadas are hands down my favorite--always fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. It's one of those places you keep coming back to because you know exactly what you're going to get every time. read more

Gaucho Market is an absolute gem and one of the most authentic Argentinian spots around. The empanadas are amazing, packed with flavor and done exactly how they should be. I also love the sandwich de miga, which always hits, and the selection of Argentinian cookies and specialty products makes it feel like you stepped into a market in Buenos Aires. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything about this place feels real and thoughtfully curated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Got the Steak Sandwich "Lomito" (comes with a bag of chips). It was a very delicious sandwich. The bread had a nice soft texture. The meat was tender, juicy and had a nice charred taste. Service was very friendly and prompt. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have tables for dining both inside and outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] No issues in parking. read more

A friend recommended the empanadas here but we still like Continental Market in Hawthorne better. We tried chicken, beef, and spinach. They're a good size and generously filled, but not very flavorful on their own. Definitely grab some sauce to go with them. We also tried the grilled chicken sandwich, which had soft bread but was otherwise not memorable. It just has mayo, lettuce, and tomato. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and the prices were reasonable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's also a seating area with a big screen TV, which was playing the World Cup when we visited.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Good spot for Argentinan sandwiches. The sausage and the milanesa was excellent. They also have variety selection on meats including picanha

The spinach empanadas are AMAZING. Genuinely my favorite food ever. They are always so nice and EVERYONE should get the spinach empanadas.

I love Argentinean empanadas! There baked, filling & delicious! They look very similar to Filipino empanadas. Which is also my fav. Staff is nice . This is also a mini market/ meat market. One stop shop :) read more

El Gaucho Meat Market is the best Argentinian market in California. I've known them for over 30 years, and every time I go, I have a great experience. The service is amazing, and the people there are always welcoming. I drive from Palm Springs, CA to Redondo Beach, just to get their empanadas -- by far the best empanadas in California. I highly recommend this place if you want to try authentic Argentinian food and traditions. read more

#1: empanadas are tasteless , they do not have the spices used in Argentina. Also the dough is more of a pie dough, #2: chimichurri is not what they have in Argentina. Theirs is more of a salsa #3: Argentina doesn't cut a steak in little stripes, not even for sandwiches read more

They sell empanadas here as they have a kitchen in the back as well as other Argentinian dishes. The empanadas are decent, nothing special. They have beef, chicken and other options. They are reasonably priced. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Friendly staff and they have an area to eat as well as a big television.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

7/24/24 Just a quick perusal! Walked in & walked out in about 5 minutes, enough to take a few photos of what the place has to offer. They make sandwiches here & have about 5 tables with chairs to enjoy your order. There are additional outdoor seating, too. The small store with the small meat/deli offers quality meats. My girlfriend said their chorizo is really good. Looking at how the shop is maintained, it appears to be well cared for. The aisles & shelves are very organized & neat. Next time we're in the neighborhood, will buy to try their chorizo. read more

Yoooo the empanadas here are sooooooo good! Was in the area to do some work and stopped by this place for lunch. Haven't had empanadas in a while and figured I'd give them a try. Man... the exterior is baked perfectly. Had the spicy beef and chicken (prefer the beef) and they were full of flavor and good amount of stuffing. I gotta becareful bc if I don't self regulate my wallet will get lighter and my belly heavier Muchas Gracias! read more

El Gaucho Meat Market - Spicy beef and spicy chicken empanadas. So good! - Grocery Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Customer service was amazing. Interesting flavor from other empanadas that I've tried. In both the beef and chicken there was half of a boiled egg and one large green olive. The bold flavor I'm accustomed too wasn't there, they were missing that (close my eyes and say mmmm comment upon first bite!) Either way, they have a variety of food options for you to try and again, customer service was amazing! read more

El Gaucho Market was a random choice for our catering. I'm happy to say we were excited to try and a little nervous only because it's a market and not your usual restaurant. They did not disappoint. They sell yummy empanadas chicken, beef and spinach. Also tried their sandwiches. Their meat is great quality and the gentlemen was sweet enough to help me carry my food to the car. I'm sad to say I didn't get any photos. Only reason why I give 3 starts was because it was a bit difficult to place order over phone since I do not speak Spanish. Once the woman got help, I was able to place order clearly. Upon arrival I asked the woman if I can have 13 plates she gave me 6 or 7 lol. I would have paid extra but didn't seem like she wanted to. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside is just like a market so not really a restaurant feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Please not I'm mixed with Mexican so nothing towards the woman on the phone. I just need to practice my Spanish more LOL. I def recommend to try this for your random lunch craving. read more

First time at El Gaucho, and I ordered a dozen empanadas (beef, chicken, spinach-cheese) to go. Pretty affordable at $29.99. It took a while to get the food, but taste-wise, they were chock-full of filling and overall, solid and enjoyable! read more

I had a breaded chicken sandwich with the spinach and spicy chicken empanadas and they were bomb! I didn't wait more than 10 mins for my food and I went during weekday lunch rush. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a small seating area inside the market where you order food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you want food + groceries, I recommend you go to the back left and order, then shop and pay for food + groceries at the front. If you only want food, order, then pay in the front, and return to the back to get your food :) Shared parking lot but it's spacious read more

Love this little market!. With a high variety of Argentinean products. I find pretty much anything I need to feel almost at home

Was there to pick up empanadas. They were fast and tasted great! They were recommended to me. I did not realize it was a market too until I got there. Their meat selection appeared to be plentiful, so I would love to go back and look more carefully. read more

I have been a client of El Gaucho market for over 20 years now. When I want to find ingredients to make Peruvian food, or any South American food, or pick up their amazing empanadas for an appetizer to impress. Go to el gaucho. They have good coffee too. read more

I love this place. All kinds of different interesting Latin American fare. My favorites are the empanadas which they make fresh daily, the ready to go Ham sandwiches and the flan is out of this world. read more

Sometimes there's greatness in simplicity, and the Lomito Sandwich is just that! Tender beef, lettuce, tomatoes and sauce/Mayo. I add chimichurri to all my Argentinian sandwiches cuz they're mine and I can-plus their chimichurri situation is top tier!! The empanadas are also delicious! Always crowded whenever I'm there but they do a great job of getting you in and out! P.S. The Milanesa sandwich is deliciously delicious but fried so the Lomita is a perfect choice when you're trying to 'Unfat your Back,' like I am lol! read more

Very well and flavorful empanadas. Spicy beef with their chimichurri sauce is amazing. read more

La comida buena, pero el servicio de algunos empleados deja mucho que desear, lamentable.

El Gaucho is a popular place for local South Bay residents. They're a meat market most known for their empanadas. They are so delicious and are always a hit when I bring them into the office as a treat for the team. My favorite empanada flavor has to be either the spicy beef or the beef and potato! Hot tip: Make sure to get their homemade chimichurri! You can find them at the entrance of the market in the refrigerated section. They pair beautifully with the empanadas.

We had a HORRIBLE experience today at El Gaucho. We had ordered a big order of empanadas for a funeral reception. The order was to be picked up by us so that we could help the family setup for the funeral. After giving the lady the name for the order they refused to release the order because they said the person who ordered MUST BE the one to pick it up?? How does this make sense? If we have the name for the order, why wouldn't you release the order? You collect the name for a reason. We had the name. So instead, we now have 50 people attending a reception with no food because they wouldn't release the empanadas to us. They wanted the son (the name under the order), who is in mass at the funeral service to leave the service to come pick up the empanadas. Absolutely no kindness or grace. We explained this was for a funeral. We explained that the person who ordered is in mass grieving his father's passing and that we were sent by him with his order name to pick it up. They could not have cared less. Take your business elsewhere to at least a place where there's still some humanity and decency and empathy left. I am appalled at how this was handled and how we were treated. read more

Love this place! Every time I visit LA, I make sure to stop in and get a chivito (aka lomito)! Tony and Abel are great! read more

Meat is amazing! People are very friendly and always enjoy my visits. Their empanadas are simply the best in all of LA!!

Came back after a few years and decided to give the Costillas and Morcilla another shot but it was still not good and will probably not try them a third time. I did try the sausages this time and thought they were really good. My new favorite item from here. The skirt steak (entraña) was still good. I was also pleasantly surprised by their Mesquite Charcoal. Sometimes I buy these bags at other locations (same brand) and get a lot of small lumps instead of the larger logs. The bag I bought from here was almost all logs of charcoal which was a first for me in all the years of buying the same brand of charcoal. I'll definitely buy it from here moving forward. Pros: + Sausages + Entraña (skirt steak) + Vacio (bavette steak) + Alfajores + Chicken Empanadas + Mesquite Charcoal Cons: - Morcilla (blood sausage) - Costillas (short ribs) - Chinchulín (beef intestine) read more

LOVE this place! Empanadas - wow! Meat market - excellent! Lots of great products you won't find in a regular grocery store. It's much more than a meat market, it's El Gaucho! Look, I'm a gringo and don't know much about about latin grocery stores, products or carnicerias, but know I like everything I've purchased here. Solid 4 stars, I'll be back! read more

They have a small and a large option for their sandwhiches. Small sandwiches are typically $5.99 and large being $7.99. Whether you order a small or large it comes with a small bag of chips. The bread tasted a bit stale on the sandwhich. However the meat was grilled and seasoned just right. The plaza can get busy as its located next to the Chicken Maison and 99 Cent Store. The sandwhich shopnis connected to the market. I had gotten to-go so you order at the counter, they call out your number when your order is ready, and then they have you pay at the checkout register at the market. read more

Empanadas we're good, but the experience was bad. The tall lady at the register forgot to put in our order so we sat for over 30mins as we watched others who ordered after us by over 10mins getting the same order as us handed to them right away. It's 4pm, y'all sell empanadas, how is it you ran out???? I keep here a lot and so does my family and friends. Today was terrible experience. Terrible. Came back to do an update, i was feeling sick after i ate. So i decided to nap and woke up still feeling nauseous. The empanadas was the only thing i ate. My man ate the chicken and beef. I ate the spinach. I threw up so much. Do not get the spinach or idk what the EFF was up with these people but terrible experience :( read more

Yummy sandwiches. good small market for Latin foods. I go here at least once a month.

I've been coming here for many years and love their sandwiches and empanadas. They sell fresh bread which is amazing! If you haven't been here before, you might think it's just a meat market. It's a good sized market with a variety or sandwiches and empanadas and more. The service is great and is much faster if you don't come during lunch hour. The people are nice and friendly as well. I would rate it 5 stars but I wish when purchasing different empanadas, they would mark which are which. I had to cut all three different empanadas and check inside. I was giving some to my Mom and wish I didn't have to cut them. Other than that, the market is great with so many items to choose from. Usually this place gets packed and people watch games and eat inside. read more

Best empinadas!!! Great service! I love their beef and potato Empinadas! Great selection of foods and their sandwiches are delicious.

Hubby read that Argentinian meat is the best so came here to check it out. Wasn't sure if their meats were from Argentina but the house made chorizo sausages were delicious. I also liked the empanadas - they have chicken, beef, spinach, and tuna. We didn't get the tuna but the other 3 were delicious - filled fully with tasty meats and spinach was good too! read more
