PDX Empanadas - Beef empanada - Food Trucks Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Located at the Portland Saturday Market, this food truck has a great selection of savory and sweet empanadas, alfajores, and ojitos, including some great vegetarian and vegan options. I decided to try the standard beef and cheese empanada and it was fantastic. Perfectly spiced ground beef with cheese and vegetables wrapped in a flaky and delicious pastry shell. Cheap, high-quality, and tasty. Definitely worth stopping by! read more

My favorite empanadas in Portland! Love the variety of fillings they offer. They are doing pick up right now and bake at home. Visit their website www.pdxempanadas.com to see what flavors you can pick up. Then email pdxempanadas@gmail.com or call to place your order. I emailed my order and called to make payment. Ines is a very sweet lady and accommodating on pick up time. Enjoyed every bite and still very delicious as if you got them at the Portland Sat market. Highly recommend support your local, small business in this time! read more

As an Uruguayan I was very disappointed in the quality of these empanadas! I so wanted to love them since there's not a place to find them here so far away from home. I wish there was another place to compare and that better executed the dough and filling! And so expensive, $6.50 an empanada. Not our traditional fillings like carne picada and ham and cheese. read more

Amazing empanadas. My gf and I had the ham & cheese, capresa, spinach & cheese and all were amazing. The big winner was the dulce de leche!!! Highly recommend. Great honest hard working people, support them! read more

I had read some good reviews for PDX Empanadas' empanadas and wanted to try them. Being from Argentina, I have eaten a lot of empanadas in my life and thees are up there with the best. I like that they are baked and not fried, and that the dough is flaky. The empanada's filling is really tasty. Some of the empanadas are traditional: beef, beef and raisins, corn (Humita), chicken and some empanadas are more innovative. I stuck with the traditional for my first tasting, chicken, beef and spinach. All of them have lots of flavor and they are not too greasy nor dry, but just right. They have 4 or 5 flavors of empanadas ready to serve that they keep warm, or you can pick your own flavors and wait 10 to 15 minutes for them to be cooked. I will go get some more when I am in town in the middle of the day, or maybe I will have to go visit them at the Saturday Market. read more

When I heard about PDX Empanadas, I got really excited. Empanadas are one of my favorite foods and I hadn't eaten good empanadas since my last visit to South America a few years ago. Unfortunately, these weren't good empanadas. They were bland, flavorless, and much too expensive. I ordered two beef and one chicken. The beef were not pre-cooked, so I had to wait 15-20 minutes while she baked them. After my first bite, I knew that I regretted my lunch choice. The empanadas had way too thick of crust and not enough seasonings. I wish I could at least say that they try to put quantity over quality, but at $4 per empanada, I was expecting something much more substantial. Overall, this food cart was a disappointment and I would not recommend it to anyone. read more

Here comes Empanadas Here comes Empanadas, right down Uruguay lane Montevideo in downtown PDX, kneading on the grains Hear those streetcar bells Torres Garcia what a beautiful sight Brave the showers on your lunch hour 'Cause Empanadas are a pastry delight Plums and berries, raisins and herbs All is merry and bright Hang your stockings and say your prayers 'Cause Empanadas are coming tonight read more

My boyfriend and I were craving empanadas after spending 3 weeks in Chile and they hit the spot! They were really delicious, the vendor selling them at the Saturday Market was so sweet. There was a problem where somehow they overcharged me, and that same day they dealt with it before I had even looked at my bank statement. They are so kind and sell delicious empanadas! LOVE IT. read more

Never had empanadas before, but after this one other variety is going to have high standards to meet. Beef was juicy and crust was flaky, it was nice appetizer and easy to walk 'eat. For cost portion seemed bit on small side, even with two at $8 some would have hard time getting full. read more

Fantastic. Ran across this cart while wandering the Portland Saturday Market today, and very glad I did. Shared a couple of spinach and feta empanadas with my one-year-old daughter, who seemed to like them as much as I did. read more

Haven't had these kinds of empanadas since I moved from Montevideo. Very good!

This cart is great! I went yesterday for lunch and got 2 amazing savory empanadas, as well as an impulse sweet empanada filled with ricotta, raisins and berries. it was SO GOOD. The woman running the cart was really sweet, and I enjoyed the whole experience. I'll be back :) read more

I spent the month of March in Montevideo and the surrounding environs. I came to know the delicious empanada as it was meant to be enjoyed, looking out on the water with a mate in one hand and a Pilsen bottle on the table. To merge the history of that flaky & delightful hand held treat with the food culture of PDX is a match made in heaven. One day I ate 6... but I highly recommend starting with 1 and taking it from there. 2 is a satisfying lunch that won't leave you food coma'd. read more

Excellent empanadas! I researched and tried many different places in town, but nothing beats the authentic flavors of these South American empanadas. Becuase of the owner's friendly appreciation and the quality of the food, I catered my son's graduation party with 90 meat or veggie choices. Our favorites were the pork, eggplant, and spinach/cheese empanadas. If you like a little spice, the beef and raisin are also noteworthy. They came hand delivered to my home fresh and hot! Everyone loved their hand held pie, the serving size was just right, and we can't wait to go back and get more! One time stop at the cart or catering a party, you will be happy and well fed. read more

I have been here a couple times to get an empanada treat. They have empanadas with the authentic meat filling and also other yummy alternatives. read more

I ordered a bunch of empanadas for a party at my house. Not only did they deliver them for free, but they showed up a few hours early with a box of samples of each variety to make sure I would like the ones I'd ordered. The empanadas were fresh, homemade, and delicious and the family that runs PDX Empanadas is great. The pride they clearly take in making their food and making their customers happy makes me smile :) read more
