Probably depends on the delivery service. I generally don't get burgers or fries delivered because of how inconsistent it can be.

Anyone know if Small Cheval delivers well? Update: it does not, but Lula's breakfast burrito sure does.

The beef was sooo not good. Like weirdly stringy.

seems as though the CMJ chef may be back with a new spot, potentially called 'atta girl?

It sounds like he’s running the restaurant version of The Producers.

I live close enough to there to be pretty at the end of my rope that they can’t open anything good in any of those spaces. At least the new bar on that corner is decent.

Went to the Kuma's on Belmont for the first time in a long long while yesterday. when I got there it was pretty empty, wonder how they are doing financially. Cant imagine giving free food to cops is helping with the margins. It's not a big space but I'm old enough to remember the days when it was a 3 hour wait for a table.
I got the plague bringer, it was basically just a solid burger with pepper jack and jalapenos but I don't know if I will ever be in the mood for the ones that are topped with a whole bunch of shit at any point in my life again. This is probably the last I will go there for the next 5 years unless someone talks me into getting the Turkey burger in November. You want a good burger? Go to Red Hot Ranch and tell em Krentist sent ya.

We went a couple weeks ago, not super late on a Saturday night and there were maybe two or three other parties in there. Wild how it's fallen off. The waitstaff were also.... not cute?
I do still like it for delivery sometimes (large house salad, chicken tendies)
Got late night burgers from Dog Haus yesterday (today?) and for a place that's invested so much in bespoke packaging (everything came on a little tray in its own little box) it was not good!!

Go to Red Hot Ranch and tell em Krentist sent ya. I go a few times a year and they always seem very busy with takeout/delivery. I think the pendulum will eventually swing back from smashburgers to big sloppy piles of shit so they'll probably be fine.

I was just thinking that I hadn't heard much about the Kuma's location in Denver, and apparently it's already shut down.

I go to the Kuma’s in Schaumburg for lunch with a couple of co-workers when I come in for my quarterly visits to the corporate office. I think it is still a good burger, but definitely feels less amazing now that there are so many great burger options available.
The burger at the little bistro in our neighborhood remains my all-time favorite, perhaps because of familiarity.

I would recommend getting a burger and a half pound of shrimp from the Armitage location and eating it next to the Koi Pond at O's on Western

Kuma's is fine. It does seem like everyone else upped their games when it comes to the "this is more than I'd like to pay for a burger" burger, though. The Denver location was in a weird spot so I'm not too surprised it closed already.

In the camp Kuma's is fine but there are so many better options in the city.
However, their Buffalo mac and cheese is one of my go to comfort meals. Get two meals worth and it comes in like the perfectly sized container to keep for future leftovers if needed.

I've been to both and haven't noticed a difference. I like to take it to go and add fresh jalapenos to my burger. The heat and crunch compliment the rest of the flavors perfectly.
