A Story That Travels from the Mediterranean to the Soul of Cartagena

With over 30 years of history, El Burlador has not only witnessed Cartagena’s culinary evolution—it has grown alongside it.

We honor our Mediterranean roots, highlight fresh Caribbean ingredients, and craft a cuisine with true identity. This isn’t fusion; it’s evolution.

Our culinary vision is born from the meeting of flavors brought by the conquest and the richness of the Caribbean Sea. Each dish tells a story deeply connected to Cartagena, bridging its past and present through contemporary techniques.

El Burlador also stands out for its award-winning wine list recognized by Wine Spectator, signature cocktails, professional service, and live music every day—DJs, soft pop, and saxophone.

A vibrant, sophisticated experience that captures the soul of Cartagena.
