About Restaurante La Causa Laureles
La Causa is a Peruvian and Nikkei kitchen in Laureles, named after the dish it builds its menu around — causa, the layered Peruvian potato terrine. The room is small, there is outdoor seating, and it is dog-friendly. Reviewers consistently mention two things: generous portions, and a lot of noise. It has grown to seven locations across Medellín, Envigado and Rionegro; this is the Laureles original.
What to Order at Restaurante La Causa Laureles
The house ceviche, La Causa, runs around $49,500 COP — white fish, squid, octopus, shrimp and langostino in leche de tigre with rocoto, red onion, coriander, avocado and wonton threads. The Nikkei version adds salmon and shrimp in nikkei sauce with bacon and avocado, and the Ceviche a la Parrilla, grilled seafood in pesto and leche de tigre, is the most-reviewed plate on the menu. Beyond the ceviches: lomo saltado, arroz nazca, bao de pork belly, and suspiro limeño to finish.
Tips for Your Visit
La Causa Laureles is at Transversal 39B #74B-41. Hours run to 9:30 PM Monday to Wednesday, 10:30 PM Thursday to Saturday and 9 PM Sunday. Reservations are taken and reviewers recommend booking ahead. One thing to check when you call: listings disagree on payment, with most showing cards accepted and one showing cash only — worth confirming if you are not carrying pesos. The room is genuinely loud, so it suits a lively dinner rather than a quiet one.
