Belmondo is a classy hamburger establishment located on Ciscar Street. Both the staff and the smells welcome you in, immediately making you feel right at home.
Joan Calabuig, the mastermind behind Belmondo, inherited the restaurant from his brother four years ago. Since then, Joan and his right hand man Dani have worked tirelessly to make Belmondo the best place in Valencia for a gourmet burger. So what exactly goes into making the best burger in town? The secret is in the beef. Joan and his team only purchase choice beef from the post of Guillem, in Ruzafa Market.
From here, each burger can be adorned with delicious handmade sauces and fresh toppings. A menu favorite is the Canyonero, a classic burger topped with cheddar cheese, bacon, fried onions and authentic barbeque sauce. Something that makes each burger special at Belmondo is the way its prepared and served. After being torched on the grill, your burger comes served on a heated stone, so you can sit back and relax without worrying if your burger will get cold.
While your burger might not get cold, it might get lonely if you don’t order a few sides to accompany it. Pair your burger with hand-cut fries or the house favorite baked piquillo peppers. This delicious side is stuffed with feta cheese and crowned with tomato and guacamole.
Finish off your savory meal with a chocolate brownie explosion, homemade every day by Joan himself. Word of mouth has made this restaurant a local favorite around Valencia. Don’t be out of the loop, stop in a take a bite today!
