What restaurant do you think makes the best burgers in Seoul?

My vote is for Gecko's in Itaewon.

I used to like Gecko's but then I realised there are places with far less annoying clientele. My vote goes for Philly's in Haebangchon.

Wolfhound is pretty good.

I had a burger at 3 Alley Pub about two years ago, and I remember thinking at the time it was the best damn thing I'd ever tasted. That was two years ago tho, so not sure if it's the same or not now.

I don't go to restaurants because that involves handing money over to k-Folk...

[SeoulShakin]

My vote goes to either Smokey's Saloon or 3 Alley.

I used to really enjoy Nashville's, but it seems like their quality dropped. i remember being dissappointed the last time i was there.

I went to a place called "Thunder Burger" the other night, it's near Itaewon close to the small road that leads up to the Hyatt. The burger was thin with 3" of lettuce on it.... Typical Korean burger.

I'd say, depressingly, that outside of a couple of places in Itaewon, the best burger in Seoul is probably Burgerking!!

I always find Smokey's Saloon satisfying...

Does Outback in Korea have burgers? I remember seeing them on the menu in China, but I haven't checked in Korea.


Where is smokey's Saloon?

i honestly think TGIF is a decent burger if you aren't in seoul.

but i really think it's best to just make your own. a burger is an incredibly easy thing to make. i just do without a bun (toast some white bread instead), make a nice thick patty, and throw on some cheese from costco and whatever other fixin's.

i wouldnt travel to itaewon just for a burger. if you're gonna go to itae, get some indian or something a little more exotic/harder to make with korean ingredients.

The Navy Club on Yongsan. Their cheeseburger with the chipotle mayonnaise is worth the cost of getting a pass to the base.

Kraze Burger is good but it's also ungodly expensive.

I also like the Wolfhound Burger but it becomes burpilicious as time progresses.
