Ultimate Burger at Burger B |

The first thing I noticed is that Burger B looks like a pub you could find in the USA-my home country. There's a jukebox in the corner, and those kind of kitschy decorations that are so familiar. Your utensils (knife and fork, no chopsticks here) come in a pail with some mustard and ketchup. There's also Guinness on tap as well as a few other decent beers.
The menu is in English first followed by a Korean translation. There's obviously a burger section, as well as salads, sandwiches, and snacks which are kind of your standard pub fare.
My boyfriend was intrigued by the Ultimate Burger, one that came topped with truffle aioli, Gruyere cheese, and caramelized onions, with a shot of vanilla milkshake and French fries on the side. I ordered the Gorgonzola Burger which has arugula, pesto aioli, Gorgonzola cheese, and mushrooms.

Gorgonzola Burger at Burger B |
I wouldn't say the service was anything special, although most of the servers speak English well, and both times we've been the person at the cashier was very friendly and struck up a nice conversation with us.
Surprisingly both times there were few other foreigners in the restaurant. It wasn't too crowded either time but it wasn't empty either.
If you're looking for a delicious burger - the best I've had in Seoul so far, and better than many American burgers too - look no further than Burger B in Hongdae."
