In Buenos Aires, there’s sushi in every shape and color, and if you think you’ve already tried every combination, think again—because there’s definitely one you haven’t. Introducing the sushi burger: it’s huge, and we’ll tell you where you can try it.
What exactly is a sushi burger and why do you need it in your life
The daring individuals who dared to create a giant sushi roll, coat it in batter, and give it the appearance and crispy texture of a hamburger to create the sushi burger are in Recoleta, just a few meters from Plaza Houssay and the economics and medical schools.
Here’s the concept: the burger is made of pressed sushi rice coated in golden panko. Inside, the fillings are the same as you’d expect in a good Japanese roll, but in a generous, easy-to-eat format.
The most surprising fact: the sushi burgers are prepared in an air fryer, which explains that distinctive texture—crispy on the outside, soft and fresh on the inside—without the heaviness of conventional deep-frying. The place is called Sushi Burguer, and they’ve even ventured into making different types of sushi burgers. Should McDonald’s be worried?
What to order at Sushi Burger
At this Buenos Aires burger spot, you can also choose from several unusual options on the menu—be sure to try the Burger Brava, which comes with tempura shrimp, creamy avocado, and Boom cheese.
The Burger Baires features fresh salmon, creamy avocado, shrimp, and cream cheese. If that’s too much of a risk for you, they also have classic sushi on the menu, and the salmon sushi has a slightly smoky flavor that’s worth trying. And if you’re going with kids, the kids’ menu offers options like salmon sticks and chicken fingers so everyone can find something delicious at the table.
You already know what to eat before or after a midterm
The restaurant is on Av. Córdoba. The menu is limited and focused, which is a sign that they do a few things but do them well. One burger is enough to leave you satisfied, which also makes it an affordable option for going out without breaking the bank.
If you like sushi and dishes that stray a bit from the conventional, Sushi Burger is one of those places worth saving.
