Newcomer Bocadesanto pours all of its energy into creating Colonia's best burger: prime Uruguayan beef piled high with ingredients like home-roasted peppers, caramelized onions, Emmental cheese, bacon, arugula, pickles and sun-dried tomatoes, and complemented by good local microbrews on tap. Eat in the cozy colonial stone house, or on the sunny patio out back.
