Shishito chicken burger at a Yeouido burger shop: Bass Burger

I went to Yeouido at the end of April~ The spring festival wasn't over yet, and it was really crowded~

Where is Bass Burger Yeouido?

Bass Burger Yeouido is a handmade burger shop on the B1 floor of Yulchon Building, directly across from The Hyundai Seoul. It was a satisfying, easy meal in Yeouido, so I'm leaving a review. Lots of you are probably looking for a good Yeouido restaurant right now, and being right across from The Hyundai Seoul makes it really easy to get to.

Since it's right across from The Hyundai Seoul, it's a perfect stop while shopping. If someone asked me to recommend a handmade burger place in Yeouido, I'd definitely put it on the list~! And compared to other handmade burger places, the prices are just right for me, so Bass Burger is somewhere I go often haha (I order delivery too,,)

What is the atmosphere like at Bass Burger Yeouido?

Bass Burger Yeouido feels more like a bar than a fast-food place. The first thing I noticed when I walked in was the mood! The lighting is soft and the whole place feels stylish. It suits a date or a casual beer too.

What we ordered at Bass Burger Yeouido

We ordered at a kiosk, and the menu is straightforward, so there was no agonizing over choices. This time we got one chili mozzarella cheese bar, a Bass Lager, a Zero Cola, a chicken burger (extra cheese) and a Hawaiian burger.

Are the chips and sauces unlimited at Bass Burger?

Yes, Bass Burger Yeouido offers unlimited chips and sauces. That was one of the things I liked. When you get a little bored mid-burger you keep grabbing them, and with so many sauces it's fun to mix up the combinations.

The James Gum chips can be refilled, so you can keep going without worrying about the portion. They're fried crisp with a good texture, and with craft beer they naturally work like bar snacks. A great side when a burger alone feels a bit lacking.

How to eat the chili mozzarella cheese bar

The Bass Burger chili mozzarella cheese bar is crispy outside, with stretchy cheese inside and chili sauce, so it's a perfect side. It isn't heavy, and it really whets the appetite.

I recommend putting on the plastic gloves they give you and tearing the chili mozzarella cheese bar in half. Compared with just biting into it, the mozzarella inside stretches out long and it looks so much better. Tearing it while it's warm and watching the cheese pull is quite impressive, fun to watch, and naturally a photo moment.

Crispy outside and softly melted cheese inside gives a nice texture contrast, and with the chili sauce it feels much richer than a plain cheese stick. The gloves meant I didn't have to worry about getting my hands messy, and little details like that quietly raise the satisfaction.

Ranch vs. pollock roe mayo: which sauce is better?

For sauces I tried the Bass Burger ranch and the mentaiko mayo (seasoned pollock roe mayo). The ranch is thick yet fresh, goes fine with fried food and burgers, and balances everything out.

The mentaiko mayo is salty with a rich savory umami that hits you, and with chips or fried items it's definitely an addictive combo. The same item tastes different depending on the sauce, so alternating dips was fun.

Is the Bass Burger Hawaiian burger a love-it-or-hate-it pick?

The Bass Burger Hawaiian burger is what my husband ate. Sweet pineapple with a salty patty can definitely be divisive, but personally I thought it worked quite well. If you like sweet-and-salty, you'll probably be happy with it.

My husband must really like it, because even when we order delivery he only gets this~ Are there any grilled pineapple fans out there?

Is the shishito pepper chicken burger worth adding cheese?

I had the Bass Burger chicken burger with shishito pepper sauce! (There's a mild sauce too!) Since the sauce is a bit spicy, I added extra cheese haha. There's also a lettuce-instead-of-bun option and I've tried that before, but today I wanted bread so I just went with the bun hehe

I got the chicken burger with extra cheese, and it definitely brings out more flavor. The patty itself isn't dry but moist, so the whole thing was nicely balanced. These days lots of people eat a light combo like this instead of gukbap (Korean rice soup), and with a Zero Cola it felt even less heavy.

Cola refills, 7 sauces and beer tasting

Bass Burger Yeouido offers cola refills. That matters more than you'd think these days, and being able to keep drinking without extra cost made the meal comfortable.

There are 7 sauces in total, and they seem to be as listed below! I eat mentaiko mayo every single time, so mentaiko is all I have haha. Also, it looks like you can try the beer before you order~

• Bass Burger house sauce (signature)
• Ranch sauce
• Mentaiko mayo sauce
• Honey mustard
• BBQ sauce
• Smoky onion sauce
• Black pepper mayo sauce

Is Bass Burger Yeouido worth a visit?

Bass Burger Yeouido is easy to recommend as a Yeouido restaurant, and especially if you're planning a trip to The Hyundai Seoul, it's convenient to stop by. With balanced mood, flavor and convenience, it's a good pick for a casual meal or a date.

It's right in front of The Hyundai Seoul, close to Yeouinaru Station, and Yeouido Station is near too!
