About Us

The Gaucho (South American cowboy) & The Gringa (North American girl) is run by a couple who met while backpacking through South America and relocated to Sandusky to share their love of REAL, FRESH FOOD.

They hold their food to extremely high standards, believing that we should all eat the highest quality food possible. All of their dishes are HOMEMADE, and they grow as much of their own organic produce as possible. All of the grass-fed/grass-finished beef used on the truck comes from Circle P Limousin Farms in New London, OH. Every egg is sourced from Sandusky farmers who create a free-range environment free from unnatural feed and antibiotics.

The Gaucho & The Gringa want to have at least a little something for everyone. They also offer gluten-free options, as well as vegetarian and vegan menu items.

    positive review  We tried your burgers at the Avon Hot Summer Nights Country Concert and they were fabulous! We had the Gringa and the Jardinero vegetarian bean burger—- super yummy! I LOVE that you had that veggie option and they were both so flavorful and the fries were some of the best we’ve had. Your brioche buns are spot on grilled to perfection! Can’t wait to catch you again sometime in the future!!!

    negative review  I can’t figure out what’s going on here. How do I pay $16 for a skimpy chicken sandwich with fries and 1 empanada? Awful value. Flavors lacking. One *.
