Wow, great little place to get a REAL big Western-style hamburger for not a lot of money. It's located next to Johnny Computer. Yummy!

I thought it was very good but a bit on the pricey side. Two platters (burger, fries, slaw) and two cokes came to 27.000 with vat.

Mashimaro, it's in the alley behind the Hamilton Hotel where Gecko's Garden, Moghul, Usamania, Ho Lee Chow, etc. are located. It's on the uphill (north) side of the alley which runs east & west.

Dang, how much was your coke??

I had water with my burger. I try not to drink Coke, because it was bad for my teeth. I paid under $7, and the burger was a true 1/3 pounder.

For some odd reason, if you get the burger with cabbage instead of lettuce, it is 1,000 cheaper. Maybe they add more burger too?

First time in a long time that I left a restaurant, totally full, yet dreaming of returning to eat more very soon!

By the way, there is an ad in the Itaewon subway as you go up the escalators. They have a small map, I think.

The burgers are the shiznit, the fries, sadly, are not. Also, they are pretty inflexible and refused my request to add an egg to my burger. Still, better than most.

Yes, the fries were greasy limp. They were given to me as a service.

I ate maybe 3.

But it's worth it for the cheeseburger.
