The best burger and hot dog I have had in a very long time 100 percent will be a repeat every time I drive thru Columbia for work. Always get the fries too everything is top notch

When you anywhere near Columbia this is a must stop! Definitely worth getting off the interstate for! Hands down best onion rings ever! There were so many things on the menu we wanted to try. It makes me wish I lived here so I had the opportunity to try everything! Food aside, the staff there were just awesome! So welcoming and friendly. You guys got this down!!!

Other than it came highly recommended by a local, I didn't really hold high hopes. However, I was quite pleasantly surprised. The food was fresh and very, very good. One of the better burgers I have had. And tots. Not too many places have tots, but Just Jeffs has tots. Jeff himself was there taking orders and bringing food out. Very friendly and courteous. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area again.

This is one of our favorite burger joints. No indoor seating but they have a whole group of picnic tables with umbrellas and awnings. You can either drive up and order at the window or you can pull in and go to a window to order. They will walk it out to your car and you can either read in your car at the table depending on how cold it is outside. My favorite is their hot dogs they are all beef Vienna dogs and you can either get them deep fried grilled or simmered. Everything we have ordered has always been good.

I suppose it's a good place to get a burger and fries. But there's not anything amazing about their burgers. I don't know what the most amazing thing is about Jeff's burgers or just Jeff's. I have had better burgers at other places, sorry to say this, my fries were cooked so long they tasted like chips. This is just what my experience was. Maybe others aren't like this.

Outstanding burger place in a parking lot . Just Jeff's operates out of basically a trailer with multiple tables and picnic tables under an awning in a parking lot. Plenty of regulars coming for their best seller - a double cheeseburger that is delicious. Crinkle cut fries are tasty and the onion rings come in a half order or full order and are crispy with good flavor. Highly recommend the place. Food is fresh and cooked to order - expect about 15 minutes to get your order. Note, only canned sodas are available with no ice. Drive thru service is available.

Amazing food priced extremely well. The Chicago dog and cheeseburger were phenomenal, possibly the best I've ever had. Those and a soda cost less than 16, which is cheaper than any fast food joint and of considerably better quality. There were tables available in the sun and under the awning (with ceiling fans). The food did take about 15 minutes to come out, but we were able to arrive, order, eat, and leave in under an hour. The place is busy for a reason! We will be back.
