The writer ordered the Moana Burger (14,000 won) and the Moana Double Burger (17,000 won) as sets to compare patty thickness and juiciness, and left remembering the parking spaces right in front of Moana Burger, the beachy hairpin handed out as a gift, and Yeoreum the golden retriever. For a burger with a deep, meaty flavor, the double burger is the one to order. ## Good to know - **Moana Burger**: 14,000 won - **Moana Double Burger**: 17,000 won - **Set includes**: Burger + fries - **Draft beer discount**: 2,000 won off draft beer with a burger order - **Parking**: Parking spaces in front of the restaurant, plus plenty of street parking nearby - **Pets**: Dogs welcome, leash hooks provided - **Address**: 228-33 Nanseolheon-ro, Gangneung-si, Gangwon State - **Good to know**: May close early if ingredients run out; call ahead or reserve before visiting - **Price reference**: ₩2,000 ≈ $1.4 (2026-09-20) *as written by the visitor on Sep 20, 2026* ![Gangneung Moana Burger's signature handmade burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-01-1cyw7-1200.webp) Today I'm introducing Moana Burger, a Gangneung restaurant serving juicy handmade burgers. It's close to Gangmun Beach and Gyeongpo Beach, making it an easy stop during a Gangneung trip, and it's pet-friendly too — here's my honest review for anyone looking for things to do in Gangneung! ## Where is Moana Burger, and what to check before you go Moana Burger is a handmade burger restaurant at 228-33 Nanseolheon-ro, Gangneung-si, close to both Gangmun Beach and Gyeongpo Beach. It's near a lot of the spots people visit during a Gangneung trip, so the accessibility was great. It's a good spot to stop by after checking out the beach, or to eat a filling burger first and explore around afterward. It can close early if ingredients run out, so I'd recommend reserving or checking ahead before visiting! ## Parking out front and the look of Moana Burger ![Moana Burger exterior and the parking space in front](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-02-lp53w-966.webp) Moana Burger has a parking space set up right in front of the store, plus plenty of street parking nearby, so parking wasn't difficult at all. ![Area around the entrance of Moana Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-03-1hlnf-966.webp) ![Moana Burger's exterior with a beachside vibe](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-04-fd6gy-966.webp) The moment I stepped inside, I felt this emotional yet hip vibe. The overall interior and atmosphere matched a beachside burger joint really well~ ![Moana Burger's interior design and seating](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-05-14dkj-m-966.webp) ![Open, airy indoor space at Moana Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-06-1x0c3-966.webp) ![Emotional atmosphere inside Moana Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-07-edfuc-966.webp) The open layout also meant it never felt stuffy — there was a refreshing sense of openness. Eating there felt like being on vacation, which fit the Gangneung trip mood really well. ![Cute little props on the table at Moana Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-08-1dl3u-966.webp) ![Table set with fork, knife, and sauces at Moana Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-09-ukgkq-966.webp) The little props on the table are so cute haha. Forks, knives, and sauces are all set out too. ![Interior view of Moana Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-10-eujj0-966.webp) ## Yeoreum the golden retriever: bringing your dog to Moana Burger Moana Burger also has the cutest golden retriever, Yeoreum! At first she was so calm I wondered if she just wasn't that interested in people~ ![Golden retriever Yeoreum at Moana Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-11-vfmkj-966.webp) ![Golden retriever Yeoreum showing her belly](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-12-1abzc-966.webp) But when I went up to her first, she immediately rolled over and showed her belly, all charming haha. If you love cute dogs, just watching Yeoreum alone will make your visit a happy one, like it did for me! ![Seating area at Moana Burger with a hook for leashes](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-13-vauco-966.webp) ![Pet-friendly interior of Moana Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-14-pz2sj-966.webp) As a pet-friendly Gangneung restaurant, there's even a separate hook to tie up a leash, and the restroom was clean too! ## Moana Burger menu, prices and the draft beer discount ![Moana Burger's menu board with prices](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-15-fw82g-966.webp) Besides the handmade burgers, Moana Burger has a few simple menu items and seemed like a nice spot for a casual beer too. There's a ₩2,000 discount on draft beer when you order a burger. ### What we ordered at Moana Burger ![Moana Burger set with burger and fries](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-16-n7klh-966.webp) Ordering the set gets you a burger with fries together. We ordered the basic Moana Burger and the double burger, one of each, to compare the two. ![Moana Burger and double burger sets on the table](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-17-1b6sm-966.webp) ## How does the Moana Burger (14,000 won) taste? The Moana Burger (14.0) had a glossy, appetizing bun with a thick meat patty, cheese, and vegetables stacked inside — it looked pretty hearty. The first thing I noticed after a bite was how moist the patty was. ![Cross-section of Moana Burger showing the thick patty](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-18-1hsn8-966.webp) The patty was thick enough that you could really feel the texture of the meat and its strong aroma, which I liked~ It stayed moist with juice all the way through, so it was tasty to the last bite. ![A bite of Moana Burger showing the buttery bun and patty](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-19-6jub4-966.webp) The bun had a rich, buttery flavor that made everything taste fuller together with the patty. It was well seasoned with a nice saltiness — really tasty! ![Final shot of the basic Moana Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-20-x95fm-966.webp) ![Tall stack of the Moana Double Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-21-1l2es-966.webp) ## Moana Double Burger (17,000 won) vs the regular burger The Moana Double Burger (17.0) is exactly what it looks like in photos — thick patties layered on top of each other, stacked so high it's hard to eat in one bite~ The visual alone was mouthwatering. ![Cross-section of the Moana Double Burger showing layered patties](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-22-q2fu5-966.webp) The basic Moana Burger already had plenty of patty presence, but the double definitely delivered a stronger meaty flavor. Every bite had juicy moisture and a deeper, cleaner meat flavor that came through even more~ ![Juicy patty of the Moana Double Burger](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-23-gl7t6-966.webp) What I really liked was that this wasn't a burger you eat for the sauce — the flavor of the meat itself really came through. With that much juice and patty flavor, it never felt bland even without sauce. It's as filling as it looks, so if you're hunting for handmade burgers in Gangneung and love a burger with a strong meaty flavor, I'd recommend the Moana Double Burger too. ![Thick fries served with the Moana Burger set](https://img.superchart.com/images/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking-24-z88dg-966.webp) ## Set fries and the hairpin gift The fries that came with the set were more satisfying than I expected. They came out freshly fried and warm, crisp on the outside with a strong potato flavor inside. They weren't too thin, more on the thick side, and the seasoning wasn't overly salty — just right. Great fries. They paired well with the burger when I grabbed one in between bites, and the portion was generous enough to feel filling. What stuck with me was that they gave us a hair pin that matched the beach vibe — cuter than I expected, and perfect as an accent for the rest of the Gangneung trip. That kind of small touch made it feel like getting a little gift, which put me in a good mood. ## Is Moana Burger in Gangneung worth a visit? Moana Burger delivered thick, moist patties alongside a bun with rich buttery flavor, which made for a satisfying meal at this Gangneung restaurant. The friendly, emotional atmosphere of the store and adorable Yeoreum stuck with me too, wrapping up the meal on a happy note. If you're looking for a Gangneung restaurant near Gangmun Beach or Gyeongpo Beach for delicious handmade burgers, or somewhere good to stop during your Gangneung trip, I'd recommend Moana Burger! ## Where it is - Moana Burger (모아나 버거) - 228-33 Nanseolheon-ro, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do, South Korea - 강원특별자치도 강릉시 난설헌로 228-33 모아나버거 - 37.7899095, 128.9149703 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%AA%A8%EC%95%84%EB%82%98%20%EB%B2%84%EA%B1%B0/@37.7899095,128.9149703,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@unhurried-meal-path/gangneung-moana-burger-hairpin-parking/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
