Smash-burger specialist with strong craft-beer program and welcoming service; excellent burgers but some complaints about pricing and occasional hygiene incidents.
Why it gets a B for overall quality
Guarango Smash Burgers and Beer delivers exceptional smash burger execution and outstanding service warmth that make it competitive with the area's better neighborhood restaurants. However, multiple 2024-2025 reports of cockroaches and food-poisoning claims create serious hygiene concerns that override strong food and service scores. The inconsistent execution compounds reliability questions, making this a worthwhile destination for burger enthusiasts willing to accept elevated risk.
Restaurant Summary
In Palma's old town, this spot feels warm and bustling without being chaotic. Staff guide you through taps and burgers with easy charm, and one guest said service was simply fantastic. The room leans bar-like with classic tunes and a chill crowd; seating can fill up later. The cooking is all about smash-burger mastery: craggy-edged patties, soft potato buns, and well-matched sauces. Think American comfort with a few Iberian or Latin nods like chimimayo and the Chivito. Sides split opinion—truffled sweet potatoes delight some, while others find them pricey—so value depends on choices more than theatrics. For families, the menu is naturally kid-friendly: plain cheeseburgers, fries, nuggets-style schnitzel bites, and mild sauces. A gluten-free bun at no extra cost and a vegetarian Beyond option help mixed groups. No kids menu is listed, but portions and simple builds suit younger eaters.
