Why everyone keeps coming back.

Pigasus pig & Burgers Laureles stands out in Medellín as a must-visit hamburger restaurant that masterfully blends quality, creativity, and warm hospitality. Nestled at Cl. 41A #70-166 a 70-202 in the vibrant Laureles neighborhood, this spot offers burgers that don’t just satisfy hunger—they ignite your senses.

From the moment you step inside, the inviting second-floor ambiance sets a cozy, laid-back tone perfect for savoring your meal. Pigasus takes pride in serving carefully crafted burgers that have earned both the 2022 and 2023 local awards, a testament to their consistent excellence. Burgers like the famed award-winners combine juicy, perfectly seasoned patties with soft, flavorful buns that melt in your mouth, beautifully balancing textures and flavors.

Many guests rave about the addictive crunch of their crispy onion rings, offered as a standard side—a detail that might seem small but significantly elevates the overall experience. The thoughtful staff, such as David and Victor, are praised for their attentiveness and friendly service, addressing everything from allergy concerns to personalized recommendations, making each visitor feel uniquely valued.

The menu also shines beyond burgers; starters like the “Elote” delight with authentic, bold flavors that prepare your palate for the main event.

The service was great and the burger was also good , nice place on second floor, only thing is when you ask for ketchup they give you a very small amount as if they are so worried about the cost of the ketchup and it ruins the whole experience, I will go to chef burger instead because they put the bottle of ketchup on the table , I just can not enjoy my burger and fries without ketchup

I don't think I've ever been anywhere in the world that loves hamburgers like Medellin loves hamburgers and Pigasus are consistently in my personal top three. There's a reason why they're so highly rated with some many reviews (and they definitely don't need mine but I've been here so often now I feel I really should add it).
