"This is one of those places you find in the inner city that is a total gem. Very strong menu from tacos to burgers. Good vibe and nice people. I had the burger and fries and they were insanely delicious."
"Everything is amazing! I love the burgers, dogs and the tacos! All are good but the Carnitas tacos are my favorite! Could eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner forever! Just go! You won’t regret it!"
The signature dish is the Del Gordo, a hulking, kitchen-sink burger with a half-pound handmade patty, avocado, bacon, cheddar, mozzarella cheese, grilled ham, pickled peppers, tomato, onions, lettuce, mustard..
Have I told you how much I love that Hamburguesas El Gordo opened this second location? These are half the price that other gourmet dogs go for, and they are damn delicious.
Hamburguesas takes it a bunch of steps further, adding toppings like ham, bacon, chorizo, pineapple and even split hot dogs, resulting in behemoth Frankenstein burgers that are as messy as they are delicious.
To top it all off, there’s that agua fresca, which you really shouldn’t miss with all the heat and grease going on. And a word to the wise: Consider splitting that hamburguesa with an amigo, as it’s a serious monster.
The Double’s 16 ounces of beef (pictured, above) is a lot to handle. And that’s before taking the plentiful pile-on of extras into account, a list that starts with mozzarella..
A gem. Wonderful beef in the hamburger and the construction was very much like a torta which was excellent. French fries were thick well-cooked and not too salty very good.
