Hamburguesas El Gordo Closes in West St. Paul

Thanks to FoodSmith and Block Portrait Studios for their support.

Better change your dinner plans—Hamburguesas El Gordo in West St. Paul closed unexpectedly earlier this month. No word as to why they closed.

  • Two other Hamburguesas El Gordo locations in St. Paul and Minneapolis are still open.
  • Last year owner Claudia Gutierrez Mendez was charged with tax crimes. There is no indication if that played into the closure.
  • The restaurant space is now available for lease.

We keep the community informed thanks to the generous support of our members.
