Heavy Metal Burgers at Kuma's Corner. Burgers are anything but high class, despite the current gourmet trend. They are messy and greasy — a dish that's meant to be washed down with fries and a beer, as juice from the patty dribbles down your chin. So thank the culinary gods... Read More

"Possibly the best burger in Chi-town, it's got cheddar, barbeque sauce, bacon, and a giant pile of delicious "frizzled" onions on a pretzel bun. Good with beer and their mac."

"I like going to Kuma's Corner when I'm in Chicago. Its a Heavy Metal themed hamburger joint and the burgers are named after bands. You don't have to eat for again for 3 days!" -Dan Black @Dan_Black

If you can stand your big, fat gourmet burger with headbanging pulsating metal music, go get in line now. There aren't many better burgers in Chicago. [Eater 38 Member]

With long waits and metal music blasting, why go? For the Slayer burger–a pile of fries topped with a half-pound burger, chili, cherry peppers, andouille, onions and Jack cheese on a pretzel bun.

There is usually a line, but it is worth the wait. The music is loud and the burgers are awesome!

Order any beer on the menu that you've never heard of, they're all great. My favorite burger is the Judas Priest. Be prepared for loud music and try to sit outside.

Metal rages, waits are oppressive, and the beastly burgers, stacked with everything from chorizo to pulled pork, have a reputation so big Lady Gaga ate one during her Monster Ball tour.

Go to Kuma's and put in your name. Drink some PBRs (or fine beers) while you wait (2+ hours) for your table. Skip the appetizers, order a burger (the Yob is great), & slip into a meaty bliss (/coma).

Need a meal of substance after all those Chicago dogs? Head to this burger bar for a mound of ground meat. Oh, and don’t leave without ordering a bourbon on tap. That’s right.

No big name beers or drinks here. It's all small names and a cozy place with a heavy metal theme. The only place I would ever wait more than an hour for a burger because they're just that good.

Not only did they name a burger after the greatest band of all-time, its toppings are exactly what I love on a burger (pulled pork, bacon, cheddar, pickles). Order a Led Zeppelin and a grape soda.

Just had the Pantera. Huge burger, topped with poblano pepper, bacon, cheddar, and tortilla chips. Allagash White to wash it down. Heavenly.
