This was good, and the beef patty was juicy and cooked nicely. The mushroom soup was also very tasty although I should have gone for a lighter side since the burger was quite large and heavy.

Side of sweet tomato jam, served with hand-cut fries and pickle. $12.79

I was skeptical of peanut butter on a hamburger, but it actually tasted really good even with some of the tomato jam mixed it! The beef patty was cooked nicely – juicy on the inside with a nice grilled crust on the outside. And the fries were deelish!

Mmm, I loved this burger. The patty was juicy and succulent, and had a nice sear on the outside. It just felt substantial and decadent. I also really like their fries. They’re thick and you get a great potato flavor.

Lamb burger banh mi – Belcampo Meat Co.

Lamb burger banh mi - Belcampo Meat Co.
Ground lamb shoulder and belly, pickled carrots, daikon, jalapeno, cucumber, cilantro, sriracha mayo, fries. $17
Belcampo Meat Co., Larkspur CA

The kitchen was kind enough to split the order between two plates, and we didn’t even ask. That was cool! The burger was very tasty. I loved the lamb flavor and the patty was juicy and tender. I also liked the Vietnamese flavors. What I didn’t like was the weird ketchup. It was super sweet and kinda ruined the perfectly delicious fries.
