Welcome

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.
