I'm proud to be sharing the same zip code as Urban Burger Bar. This means two things for me, one I am dangerously close to the point I could crave it daily and two, I need to step up my workout plan just because of it. I've been to the famous Kumas many times as I used to live practically behind it and always smelled the flavorful aromas from my balcony. However, I am not a fan of heavy metal music blasting in my ear just to eat a burger. This is why I am so happy to have found the Burger Bar, the interior decor is inviting with the light wood benches and table tops, the music is a nice mix and never too loud and the burgers are just yaooowza outta this world! Whether you decide to make your own or choose from their picks, you always start with half a pound of meat. I don't even bother eating the bun because I'd rather enjoy the star of the meal, the beef, with mushrooms, crispy onions, cheddar cheese and avocados. OMG I want one now! Since I cut the bun out of the picture, I replaced it with my favorite, truffle fries and the combination of both makes me the happiest little clam in the world. The only reason this is not getting 5 stars is due to the service I received both times. The first time, the service was slow and the food took FOR*EVER and the second time the server was way too energetic to the point I thought he was being sarcastic. If they can find a median between the two, this place would be 5 stars. Oh! and don't forget to try their chocolate malt ball shake, it's life changing but probably 3000 calories per sip, if you feel guilty, just make it your entire meal.
