Melts Burger
멜츠버거 서울숲 Meltseu Beogeo Seoulsup Melts is the English word — one post says the name comes from the American cheese melting into the smashed Hanwoo beef patty.
Data as of · Published ·
Melts Burger Seoul Forest is a burger shop in a basement on a residential lane off Seoulsup 4-gil. It makes smash burgers with Hanwoo beef pressed flat on the griddle; you order and collect at the counter, and three posts were told to tear open the paper bag and use it as a tray. In posts from July–August 2026 the Melts burger was 9,200 won and the classic cheeseburger 8,700 won, with 4,900 won more for fries and a drink. In October–December 2025 the menu was just a hamburger, cheeseburger and double cheeseburger, with the cheeseburger at 6,800 won. A post from 30 May 2026 said the shop was temporarily closed, and posts from July onward show it open again. We read 24 posts from 13 October 2025 to 1 October 2026 and set aside 7 that were about other places.

Counted from what bloggers wrote in their posts; we did not confirm it with the restaurant. Where the values differ, it may be a change over time rather than a disagreement, so we show when each one was written.
These hours are counted from the posts we read. Shops change them without notice — check Naver Place before you go. Place — check hours
What sets it apart
- Seven posts said they saw the beef's origin or grade certificate on display — a Hanwoo grading certificate by the counter in October 2025, and a sign at the entrance naming the day's beef in July 2026. The line about chilled grade-1+ Hanwoo every morning is the shop's own claim, which posts repeated, so we do not rely on it.
- Five posts said the kitchen is open and you can watch the burgers being made; one said staff happened to be grinding the beef when they arrived. Four of the five, though, are the look-alike posts described below.
- Posts split three to three on the patty: three called it thick, three called it flat, small or thin layers — the latter all explaining the smash method. Five posts mentioned juiciness.
- Two posts noted there are no wet wipes, and two said there is a washbasin inside the shop. One post from October 2025 counted having to go into the restroom to wash your hands as a drawback.
- One post (October 2025) ate there with a dog, and another saw a couple with a dog at an outdoor table. Two posts mention outdoor tables on the lane.

Getting there

| In a basement | 1 of 14 posts |
|---|---|
| Toilet inside | 2 of 14 posts |
Nobody mentioned a step at the entrance, a lift, or getting in with a wheelchair or stroller. The shop is on basement level; one post went in via stairs leading down, another described it as half a floor down. We do not know whether there is any step-free way in.
Two posts said the restroom is inside the shop. Nobody said whether it is separated by gender.
No one mentioned: Second floor · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Accessible toilet · Separate restrooms. That is not the same as there being none — it means we could not confirm it. Worth calling ahead, and do tell us: we will put it here.

Posts that followed a TV spot
Of the 15 posts we gathered, 1 went up on a single day right after a TV spot and show no sign of a visit. They retell the broadcast, so we left them out of the counts.
We do not discard them. That a TV spot produced a burst of posts is itself something worth knowing about a place, and a star rating will not show it.

What we do not know
- Four posts from July–September 2026 follow one template: the same lines about 100% Korean Hanwoo, cooking to order, new sets from June and the Apgujeong and Samseong branches, in the same order, and three of them ordered exactly a Melts burger set and a classic cheeseburger set. One is marked as sponsored. We counted them as meals eaten, but they may be one message repeated four times.
- Waits are mixed: one post found a queue, two found the place nearly empty (a rainy afternoon, an evening). The line that peak hours may bring a wait appears almost word for word in the template posts, so we did not count it. Nobody described a waiting list or waiting area.
- Prices depend on when. October 2025: hamburger 6,300 won, cheeseburger 6,800 won, double cheeseburger 9,300 won (15,300 won as a set). July–August 2026: classic cheeseburger 8,700 won, Melts burger 9,200 won, 4,900 won extra for a set and 3,900 won extra for a lunch set. One post about a September 2025 visit, written in July 2026, gives the 4,900 won set price, so we cannot tell which period it reflects. Two posts called it good value; none called it expensive.
- Opening hours have changed. Two posts from October 2025 listed 11:00–22:00 daily (last order 21:30); five from July 2026 onward list 11:00–21:30, three of them adding that Mondays are closed. One post instead lists a 15:00–17:00 break on Mondays and Tuesdays, which conflicts with a Monday closure. All of these are copied info blocks, not something the writers checked.
- Two posts went with friends and one with a partner. No post clearly ate there with children, so we do not know how it suits kids or whether there are high chairs.
- Three posts give the same phone number, 02-464-1987. Nobody said whether reservations are taken.
