Tabelog ratingWhat sets Zooton's Kumoji ten apart is the bun. It is two-tone, sesame-toasted and crisp on top, soft and chewy underneath, and reviewers mention it more than anything else. The kitchen also cures its own thick-cut smoky bacon. The small room a block behind Kokusai-dōri is a cluttered American-retro den of surfboards, stickers, wrestling posters and signed banknotes left by guests from around the world. It has been selected for Tabelog's Hamburger "Tabelog 100" six times, most recently in 2026.
Most praise goes to the bun and the juicy, hand-formed beef-pork patty. The ABC (avocado, bacon, cheese) is the most-ordered burger, and many call it the best they ate on their trip. Other favourites are the Special (two patties, cheese, bacon, avocado), the bacon egg cheeseburger, the salsa burger and the three-cheese burger. Every burger comes with wedge fries. Some reviewers rate the taco rice, Okinawa's taco-filled rice dish, even higher than the burgers. Foreign visitors often mention how friendly and helpful the staff are.
The criticism is minor. The burgers stand tall and are awkward to eat, and the bacon can be hard to bite through. A few found the room dim, the service hands-off or the patty understated. One reviewer thought the portions modest, though most call them huge, and some find it pricey next to the chains.
Lunch and dinner both typically cost ¥1,000–1,999. Reviewers around 2026 paid about ¥1,210 for the plain hamburger with fries, ¥1,550 for the homemade bacon burger, ¥1,564–1,720 for the bacon egg cheese and ¥1,740 for a three-cheese avocado salsa monthly special. A Coke was ¥440, or ¥382 as a set drink. Orion beer and shikuwasa (Okinawan citrus) juice are popular add-ons. Prices on the outside menu exclude tax.
It is good value. Reviewers consistently call it reasonable for a craft burger, and one estimated that a Tokyo equivalent would cost about 30% more. Fries are included, and a single burger fills most people up.
