This place is a total vibe. I felt like I walked into 1983 and it was AMAZING. Great burgers, great hot dog… Overall a great experience, definitely going back. Edit: I came back! Got the sausage dog this time, that’s gonna be my new go to. Really enjoy the vibe here. Lots of good friendly employees.

This is my favorite burger place (besides Zestos they're tied imo lol)! I absolutely love their burgers and chili cheese burgers and onion rings! They have great prices too so it's easy to feed the family without spending a fortune. It's also a great piece of Columbia SC history. They do get busy at lunch so be prepared to wait a while if you go then or are in a hurry. But it's worth it for the fresh food delicious food and friendly faces.

A solid local spot! When you walk in and see a line at the counter that is a good sign and Mack’s did not disappoint. Friendly service, freshly made food and an atmosphere reminiscent of childhood.

My boss introduced me to Mack's about a year ago and I'm so happy he did. We've been going there at least once a week ever since then. I had been looking for a great burger joint ever since the FA Zesto rebranded, and finally found it in Mack's. The staff are fast and don't play around, so don't expect to have much chitchat. All they ask is for you to be respectful and they'll do you right every time. The only downside I've found is that they aren't open for dinner so I've never been able to meet family here after work. I appreciate how hard they work. The line gets so long, it goes out the back door at lunchtime, but I promise it's worth the wait. Keep up the good work guys!

★★★★★ 5.0 Joshua Griffin · Dec 2025

The building may not look beautiful, but the food sure is. Excellent and friendly service. You go there enough they will know you and your family and ask about them. Good is excellent. Heard many people call it hamburger heaven and I can’t disagree. Fantastic experience.
