The Parent of Kuma’s Corner Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy | Eater Chicago

"Since its founding in Avondale in 2005, Kuma’s Corner built a reputation on pairing heavy metal and craft beer — even aligning with festivals like 3 Floyd’s Dark Lord Day — and on thick, messy, oversized burgers that stand in contrast to the current smash-burger trend. I note that Kumas Holdings recently filed for Chapter 11, but the four remaining restaurants (including locations in Fulton Market, Woodfield Village Green, and Indianapolis) remain open as separate legal entities, and Ron Cain insists “we are not going anywhere.” Over the years the chain has dialed down its once-brash music and craft-beer focus to fit into markets like Fulton Market, but its menu staples endure: the Led Zeppelin (bacon, barbecue pulled pork, cheddar, and pickles) is a classic, and the restaurant is no stranger to controversy — notably a 2013 Ghost tribute burger topped with a communion wafer that drew Catholic outrage and a Time write-up. Ron Cain says he hopes to return Kuma’s to its roots with community fundraisers, a burger-of-the-month supporting an 11-year-old girl badly injured by bullies, and plans to mark the 20th anniversary in 2025 with talk of bringing back Kuma’s Fest." - Ashok Selvam

We had an amazing experience here. Fast friendly service (shout out to both the host & our server- who’s name is escaping me but she had long red hair). Food was delicious (buffalo mac & cheese plus Iron Maiden burger)! Atmosphere exactly as expected. Would visit again next time in Indianapolis. Also already looking at Chicago location closer to home.

I read this place had one of the best burgers in the city. Driving through so I stopped. I’m a burger nut. But this burger was average at best. Messy, sloppy, and just underwhelming. Nothing special. I don’t even remember which burger I ordered. Love the metal theme and the space is awesome. Service was top, they could not have been kinder or more patient. Would come again. But would order something else.

My boyfriend and I made a day trip to indy to celebrate his birthday, I'd made reservations for the Eagle's Nest for an upscale dining experience and we came to Kuma's for some drinks before dinner. The Eagles Nest turned us away because he was wearing kakhi shorts in 85 degree heat and they refused to honor our reservation, so since our money was no good there we came back to Kumas to try the burgers we were eyeballing on the menu. The burgers were amazing. The patties were HUGE, even though we we came in starving we were stuffed by the time we got halfway through our burgers. the fries were perfect. The selection of beers on tap were very good, I wish I could've tried them all. The staff was happy to serve us and even though we were sat at bar tables that the bartenders take care of on top of serving the bar rail, our service was lightning fast. Drinks on the table in less than a minute of ordering, food was out in less than 10 minutes. The staff was amazing and very accommodating to us. Shoutout to the hostess for immediately cleaning a table for us as soon as we walked in! I've honestly never had service this good anywhere else. The atmosphere was great and reminded me a lot of a metal bar I used to frequent in my city so it felt nostalgic to be there. We are definitely coming back here next time we're in town.

Loved the look of the place, the theme of the menu matching the restaurant as a whole is awesome! I liked my burger, confused by the whole Chipotle pepper on it. I'm also not a big fan of pretzel buns. Everything seemed to come on a pretzel bun. The burger was very good besides the nit picking. I did LOVE there is a mocktail menu section! My husband sandwich fell apart as he ordered it with chicken tenders. Seeming impossible to do with a pretzel bun. But over all it was tasty There was a leak in one spot, so the floor was just getting a tad wet. All in all, we will definitely be back, as we over all enjoyed the staff and atmosphere.

I always struggle when it comes time to write a review that goes against common opinions. This one really confused me though because I can't figure out who wants to may over $20 a meal that is nothing more than a burger and fries/chips. Some burgers on menu were up to $25. The younger generation must be blind because you can get a coupon for Culver's for 2 Double burgers for $8 and I swear they taste better than the quality I got here. This is definitely an artsy fartzy style place and people pay for that atmosphere but we just weren't enjoying the screaming headbangers music either. Honestly we both agreed there wasn't anything we could recommend or even want to return here for. Our waitress "Brook" was absolutely a super sweetheart and her personality made the highlight of this restaurant experience. Bottom line: We came to try a new place and ended up after 2 burgers meals, an appetizer and 2 drinks. $110 in the hole!!!! Definitely not something we want to do or experience again!

Kuma’s Corner is hands down one of the best spots for a burger! The burgers are juicy, packed with flavor, and stacked with creative toppings that make each bite a treat. The atmosphere is laid-back and edgy, with a rock ‘n’ roll vibe that makes it fun and unique. On top of that, the service is friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home. Whether you're a burger connoisseur or just hungry, Kuma’s Corner delivers every time!

I love metal and this was right up my alley. Between the music playing and the decor, I was enthralled. The food was really good and the tap selection was great! I'd come back!

Great spot for a burger of which they have many varieties. Good lineup of beers and fantastic service. I recommended will return.
