The final stop on our 2023 Birria Passport for my partner and I! We stopped in on a Sunday evening, and walked into a restaurant full of smoke. Not sure if they'd just had a fire or something burned, but we were shocked to step into a cloud of smoke and condensation on all the windows.The decor and ambiance leaves much to be desired and wasn't the cleanest, but this can be overlooked for good food.Service was a bit odd - at the counter, the two workers were bantering while we tried to order and I had to repeat my order back three times to make sure it was right.We ordered one of each kind of taco and meat, and my partner got a burger. The burger? DIVINE. And unique, and flavorful. Like seriously, come here for that alone! Their fries were surprisingly good as well.Their birria didn't blow me away like other MN spots, and we didn't get consomme since we only got two birria tacos, but still very good.I loved their Al Pastor! Their carne asada tasted more like ground hamburger than steak, and I wasn't blown away by the carnitas. I wish there was a bit more on the tacos for $4.50 a pop. Their salsa lineup is self serve which I love and great variety of flavors!TLDR: UNREAL burger, great al pastor, great salsas, mediocre ambiance and service. Next time, I'd take a burger and a few tacos to go!

Yummy Birria, friendly and fast takeout service, ambiance seems like it'd be cool to eat in but it's always packed.

The location on Cedar Avenue is always busy so we thought we should give it a try. We won't be ordering from Hamburguesas El Gordo again. While the food is affordable, it's just not that good. The Carne Asada is just ground beef with spicy seasoning on it. The Elote was pretty flavorless. And the Jalapeño Poppers weren't cooked all the way through. There are much better Mexican and Latino fusion restaurants in the Twin Cities to try than this place.

I ordered the carne asada fries. Normally this is so so so good. This time I was so very disappointed. I did not get carne asada. I got carne molida. On top of that there was hardly any cheese or anything on them for that matter. They are usually smothered in goodness. They were dry.Also, I ordered a couple boxes of carne asada tacos. They also came as carne molida. Luckily my husband liked his tacos de pollo and the jalapeño wrapped bacon was very delicious.I look forward to writing a great review next time I am there otherwise I won't be visiting again.

Yum!!! This was my first time at hamburguesas and I loved it!! They have an awesome salsa bar with salsa verde, pick de gallo, and a variety of spice levels. The restaurant is a small place with counter service. I stopped in with my friends after hanging out at lake nokomis. Loved everything I tried from the fries to the el gordo burger (ham, avocado, onions, jalapeños, cheese...) the quesobirria looks wonderful and the nortenos with asada was delicious too!! They also have horchata and pineapple juice!! This was a beautiful and very flavorful meal!!

Burgers are outrageously good, and you will not leave hungry. Service is quick and consistent. If you've never had Mexican burger this is a must.

Terrible service. Ordered a few weeks ago and was missing several items, the food we did get was incorrect. Swore we would never eat here again.Tonight we gave in and decided to try again. TERRIBLE!!!!Our entire meal was incorrect and we were missing food. my husband went back, they replaced the order (they wouldn't give a refund) and sent him out. He gets home and the FOOD IS STILL WRONG.What is this elote??? where is the seasoning?Missing fries.Tacos Nortenos come with queso fresco and avacado. NOT! Missing from both orders.Absolute waste of money and time.

Hello everyone, Hamburguesas El Gordo is actually a remarkable dinning choice! Even though it's advertised as "the fat guy", this food is actually very healthy, high protein, minimum carbohydrates. Depending on your goals you can truly get whatever you want. As someone who competed in bodybuilding competitions I can truly say this food is very beneficial and worth. Even the fries are natural and processed in the kitchen! Im definitely going to bring my bodybuilding and powerlifting buddies over! If you live in the twin's cities or a tourist- this is the perfect spot for you! It's Minnesota! Come support your local up and coming Mexican Food Business!

We want to love it here! The staff is so friendly and the concept is so great - we love hot dogs but there are a few things that need improvement. 1st - the hot dogs are so small compared to the buns, the toppings are excellent but the proportions with the little hot dog are off. 2nd -- their fries are consistently underdone, be sure to ask for them crispy otherwise they are often undercooked and floppy. Also, our greatest wish is for them to have a Sonoran style hot dog added to their menu.
