Aircraft
After doing the safety demonstration I went to the AFT of the aircraft to complete my compliance and confirm my galley secure when I smelled a burning odor. I called FA-A and asked her to come and tell me what she smelled. She notified the CA and he called me and asked what I smelled. I reiterated the smell was a burning smell. FA-A confirmed she smelled something but could not clearly identify what the smell was. The CA called Maintenance. Upon arrival and after some investigating; they confirmed the burning smell and we deplaned.
EMB-175 Flight Attendant reported 'burning odor' in the aft galley during taxi. Captain executed an uneventful ground gate return after being notified.
