Contribute Feedback What Melody Adams likes about Abuela Chona:
When you visit the food carts in Beaverton, be sure to turn left at the entrance and check out Abuela Chona Bakery, as their empanadas are absolutely AMAZING! I highly recommend ordering a plate so you can sample two different types, plus that incredibly delicious cookie! And don't forget, their potatoes are perfectly seasoned. The staff were also very friendly, which was just the icing on the cake! View all feedback.
What Rick Friesen doesn't like about Abuela Chona:
I received the wrong order twice, which was really frustrating. Additionally, one of the items contained allergens that we were sensitive to, and as a result, we both got sick. View all feedback.
Tony and Amy, owners and chefs of Abuela Chona, are wonderful folks with a fabulous product!! Our entire family loves the flavor and variety and the chimichurri adds great flavor. We were sad when they moved from Beaverton to Forest Grove, but NOW THEY ARE OFFERING FROZEN BAKER'S DOZEN! They are also offering delivery for free for the 4th of July weekend, something I hope, for their sake, is a one time offer. For us, it is WELL WORTH the trip from Lake Oswego to pick up their frozen empanadas. Instructions to oven heat are perfect, and we are picking up several dozen at a time so one trip provides for 3 4 meals. And they LISTEN to their customers. Their online frozen ordering is new. Tony replied personally in e mail to my order I mentioned needing chimichurri which was not on the web site. IN ONE HOUR he had added that plus other options. IMPRESSIVE!
ALL THE STARS. I am obsessed with these empanadas. Highly, highly recommend. Abuela Chona will be feeding us on a regular basis :
Great place for empanadas! Love going to the food carts with my friends and decided to try this place for the first time. They have a great selection of empanadas and they are all really yummy! I had the chicken empanadas and it can be a snack or a whole meal! It had great flavors and was made fresh when I got there. Their alfajor is also a great dessert option. The lady working the cart was really nice and really attentive. Would definitely go back.
The food was good, but the staff weren't very friendly, and nobody greeted us when we arrived or said goodbye when we left. I'm from Argentina, so I was happy to experience a little taste of my country, but there was something disappointing about the overall atmosphere.
I’m on the hunt for great empanadas in Portland for a date! This place rivals one I had in LA, and it definitely made a strong impression on me. They seem to be relatively new, so they're still working out some issues. Often, they run out of certain items, and a friend mentioned that the quality can be inconsistent. However, both times I've visited, the food was excellent. I've also tried to place a few mobile orders, but they keep going offline, even during their open hours. It’s likely they're just really busy, but it’s frustrating when I’m eager to enjoy this amazing food! It's tough to make it a regular spot when they’re frequently out of stock or closed. I’d be happy to update my review to 5 stars if they can improve their consistency! Here’s hoping!
