Cooked perfectly medium rare, super juicy, fresh pretzel bun, with arugula instead of lettuce. I could only finish half and even reheated the next day, the burger was awesome. Fresh cut fries were crispy and tasty. Gumballhead in a frosty mason jar was refreshing. The staff were very friendly, and the service was great. I really enjoyed the vibe there, despite the goofy prison theme and will definitely be back. Prices were very reasonable as well.

I became quite the regular there this fall (especially on half priced burger Tuesdays!) and more often than not, their fires are undercooked. I always ask for them well-done when I order.

I wonder if the half-priced burgers apply to dine-in only. I paid the menu price for my burger and didn't realize it was Tuesday until I got my food and got home. The burger was well worth the $13, but to pay half that would be an awesome deal!

Kuma's web site has the burgers from $10 - $13, with my usual, the Kuma Burger (Bacon, Cheddar, Fried Egg), at $10.Kennyz wrote:if I'm reading these quotes correctly - a Kuma's burger is now much more than $13?

happy_stomach wrote:Yeah, same price range at both places. (I think Lockdown has a double burger that's $14-15.) Maybe Ursiform dined on a Tuesday.
