La Perrada Del Gordo

Best burgers ever, the place is nice and clean. Great service and delicious food. I especially like the garlic and pineapple sauces.

I’m so grossed out right now. I was eating my burger to find a long thin black hair cooked into my burger. The food tastes good but whoever is packing the meat together to grill needs to wear a hair net. So absolutely disgusted!

This place was EXCELLENT! I LOVED my chicharron, perro hawaiiano and salchipapas. Definitely rivaled my favorite Colombian restaurant in NYC. I look forward to trying a burger next time. It was packed and you can tell that they take a lot of pride in their food.
I have to agree with the other reviews that the staff is way less than friendly. I sat up at the counter because there weren’t any seats and the woman kept cleaning around me. It was SUPER uncomfortable and I eventually left because I felt like she kept trying to move me out of the way. I’ll take it to go next time, but they lose a star for that.

«en casa de ciego, el tuerto es rey «
It is the only nasty option in Palm Beach!
Believe in the bad reviews!
NOT EVEN close to real Colombian Fast Food, this is disgusting!

Terrible. Awful. Will never return, even if it was free.
Flavorless burger. One dimensional mush.
Combination of tasteless trash. Loaded with overly sweet pineapple sauce.
Learn from my mistake. Save your time and money.

It’s okay, nothing special about the food. Portion size was average for the price. A burger was $ 8 on average with no sides or drinks. I feel like there are better alternatives than eating here, truth be told.

This little place is awesome. I had the Burger chicken mixed with beef… melt right in my mouth. A stroke of genius hands cooking. If your in west palm def. Take an über and enjoy a burger you won’t be disappointed.

These are the best burgers in the entire county. The sauces they use and extras they add on top really make it an amazing experience. The ingredients are quality and not frozen patties. Why people think a place serving quail eggs would cut corners on the beef baffles me. The menu is all digital with pictures so I am not sure why some reviewers found it hard to understand. The service from the gentleman behind the counter was perfect. The lady working was a bit rude but I will deal with that for the incredible food. These taste just like the burgers I love from Columbia and Easter Island… absolute perfection.

We have been here before and it’s always the same… delicious! The combination of the mondo burger is unusual and even sounds gross but somehow it all works. The fries are crispy and fresh.
Be brave and give it a try. The plaza is questionable but worth the adventure.

Meh. The menu was hard to understand and the patties were frozen and then over cooked.
The fries were perfect. Hot, crispy and fluffy inside. That was the high light of our lunch.
The garlic sauce and the pineapple sauce were really good.
In closing, we will not be back.

I ate here with my dad and we both ordered Gordo burgers. I didn’t eat the actual burger part. It just wasn’t good. I did like the shredded beef in it, though… if that counts for something! It’s definitely a lot of food for the price ($ 7). But what’s the point if you barely eat it?
Also, they do not have tap water available for their customers. Just bottled. I overlooked that while I was there because I really wanted to try the food, but my dad was really annoyed with that. Looking back, he’s right. As a customer, why wouldn’t you provide us with free water? C’mon Gordo’s! Stop being weird.

The Colombian hot dog was delicious. The food here is great, I’ve been here before and got the burger which is also great.
With that said, I found a piece of glass in the hot dog that almost killed me. When I mentioned it to them and showed them the glass, the guy working there said «are you sure?» They gave me no apology and didn’t say anything whatsoever, just stared at me. I had to ask them to give me a refund because they didn’t voluntarily do so.
I will never eat here again because I don’t want to eat glass and the treatment I received was shocking and horrendous, when I could easily sue them for negligence.

Ok, I actually read the reviews here a few times but no matter how good everyone said the burgers are, the photos never looked appealing to me, so I always passed.
After a late night of poker a few of the guys were talking about this place and after I expressed how I felt, they dragged me here.
I ordered the Gordo Burger Beef on Beef and a side of empanadas. Empanadas were crispy and very light. I enjoyed them very much. I had some fries off my friends plate and the were crispy on the outside and fluffy in the middle… good stuff.
Burgers were interesting at best. All the different sauces were a little overwhelming. I probably could have passed on the shredded meat in the burger.
This seems to be a perfect place to go late night for drunk food. Worth a try once, but then again… isn’t anything?

As a gringo it took a little while to figure this place out, so here’s some tips to save you some effort:
–You go up to the front registers to order. Be careful because my wife said the menu online is not the same as in the store. The ladies will try their best to figure out what you need if it isn’t an exact menu item. My wife wanted a burger with just ketchup, lettuce and tomato. They don’t have lettuce, but will give you a ton of ketchup and tomato slices. I took the Gordo Burger Mix which is three layers: beef patty, shredded chicken, & shredded beef. She told me that cheese, bacon, & crumbled potato chips come standard on that — I did not notice any bacon in my burger, but did not try to open it because the thing just barely hangs together to begin with. It also comes standard with thick melty cheese and like five different sauces including «pink sauce» and «pineapple sauce» which I am glad I told them to hold because I was already getting sick and may have horked. The burgers are the main attraction for this place — almost every person we saw eating had one. Mine came half wrapped in tinfoil in a little cardboard tray. The thing is monstrous and a good value at $ 7.00. I could only eat half and felt sick the rest of the night (just too much going on in the sandwich and I don’t know if the patty is good quality). My wife said they char the patties and she did not like it — threw away half the sandwich and had to wipe off alot of ketchup.
–There’s a good kids menu. We ordered chicken nuggets and french fries. Unfortunately fries already come with the chicken nuggets so we had a ton and wasted some money. On the plus side, the french fries are heavily fried and taste really good. The chicken nuggets are also thick fried and really crunchy.
–Tried the «Arepas» — they are basically a pancake made of out corn mush with thick melty cheese on top. It was alright, but nothing to spend $ 3.00 on. If you have to try it maybe just get the $ 1.50 kids size.
–They have bottled drinks consisting of gatorade $ 1.50, bottled water $ 1.25, and some misc. imported sodas probably from South America. The silverware and napkins are at a station located across from the registers. They will give you a little number you place on your table when you order and the people will bring the food to you. The dining area is a little bit loud with music and tv’s and was crowded when we went on a Friday Night. There was outside seating that nobody was using. It was really dark outside and noisy too with people and cars moving all around.
–My family did not like the place enough to go again, but it seems like they have a good following gringos and non-​gringos alike. For my money I’d rather get a McDouble for a buck and not waste anything.

Recently discovered this Colombian– themed gem. Had the beef gordo burger, and queso arepa. Both were delicious, the burger is on another level of flavor, packed with an impossible amount of awesome topping. No issue with the service, it was quick and friendly. It’s funny how quickly the line can go from long to empty, right back to long again. Will be back for more soon!

The food is good, but out of all the places I’ve been, this is by far, the place with the WORST service ever… They take forever to get your food and good luck of you ask your food to go, because they’ll mess up your order all the time.
Just don’t waste your time. Is a shame how bad service can kill their good food.
They day i went, i think the owner was there, because the lady who was ready to serve a burger got stopped by a dude, took the burger and told her go and make another. Customers are treated like garbage here. I just don’t get it. Will never visit this place ever!

I have dined here before they expanded and added more seating. Whether it’s midday or late night, everyone could use a gordo burger.
Firstly, parking is terrible in this small complex. Once you find a spot, you’re golden! They have upgraded the entire space with electronic menu boards and rolling pictures of their food items. I haven’t explored the menu aside from the mixed gordo burger — go big or don’t dine here — so I’m a tad bias. The mixed gordo burger is a mountainous burger of deliciousness. I don’t know all the details about its layers because quite frankly I’m stuffing my face as soon as it arrives to my table, but I know it has Colombian cheese (mild white cheese), pineapple sauce, garlic mayo, and some ruffles. I promise all the favors blend in harmony in your mouth, so don’t alter the burger. That’s a firm recommendation. It’s a heavy burger, so please don’t make any plans after you eat a burger besides a nap. Enjoy!

I am a first timer a Gordo’s but have heard about in from the teens in the family,
I had the regular burger and it was very good… The different flavors that I wouldn’t expect with this burger made it even better…
Def not for anyone watching what they eat but every now and then for those of us who are metabolically challenged this is a nice treat.
The service was good but a bit confusing when your items came from different areas if their kitchen… We were never sure if they would be calling our number or delivering to the table.
Overall the food was good and more than filling.

It was my 1^st time here and I had high but curious expectations due to the many 5 star ratings and interesting reviews from Unilocal.
I took 5 boys with me and they all got the Gordo Burger so I opted for the Perro Hawaiian since I knew I would get to try my son’s burger.
My hot dog was amazing. I purposely did not try to figure out every thing that was on it but it was different from any other dog I have had and all of the ingredients went well together.
The Gordo burger was awesome. I would have never guessed that a burger with shredded chicken would be a hit item but it went together like it was meant to be. The pineapple, special sauces, bacon, etc really make it a unique burger.
The other food coming out around us looked good and I am looking forward to trying it again.
My only small criticism it’s that they do not have any fountain sodas and I do not like to drink soda from a can.

I would’ve given them 5 stars but the service was bad. The food is very good. The gordo burger is huge and what I liked about it was that you can taste the char from the grill. The gordo hotdog is like any other Columbian style hotdog and also very good. We ordered the chicharron which was crispy and served with lemon wedges. I really enjoyed the shrimp ceviche served with crackers. It was seasoned perfectly. BUT, all the food came out separately. By the time the fries came out, we were done with our meal. The service was terrible.
