The burger and fries were great, the beer was perfect, they were playing '90s rock, and Friends was on TV. Honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The second time, the place was pretty full on a Saturday, but the food and fries were just as delicious, and the beer was still perfect. I'll definitely be coming back regularly to this place!

Our group has 13 and fortunately we had 11 today, which probably was about the most they could've managed at that table. Waiter was great. Took our drink orders and burger orders. Had a variety of orders (Poncho, Classic, Tuesday's Special Ron Swanson's), with regular fries and sweet potato fries. Burgers were very good, everyone happy with the exception of one burger getting dropped on the floor, resulting in that person waiting for about 10 minutes to get a replacement. Meanwhile he chomped on some of his fries. Overall food was great. Only issue is with the loud music. Music is good music, just way to loud. Everytime we go here nobody can here each other talk across the table. (We always sit at the big corner table on the right as you walk in). Fries were okay....nothing special. Burgers are the thing. Wish they would offer some home fries along with the regular and sweet potato fries. Only complaint we have is the loud music. Just tone it down about 3db.

Wow! I could have sworn I shared a review for Whataburger not too long ago, but I guess not. So let…read moreme start off by saying I am from the upstate part of South Carolina, where places like Clocks, Pete's, and Sugar-n-Spice are in abundance and their bacon cheeseburger plates are spectacular. If you are looking for a similar-style burger place in the Columbia area, then Whataburger is it. I enjoy the call-ahead drive-through, and there is plenty of parking. The interior is set up as a counter-service diner. The ordering process, whether in person or over the phone, is easy. Their bacon cheeseburgers do not come close to those in the upstate, but they are good. It is satisfactory in size, and the flavor is tasty. They are definitely a great burger option in the area. I wish the bacon was cooked a bit more. Otherwise, their bacon cheeseburger is pretty solid. Their fries are crinkle-cut and lightly salted. The fries I receive are always fresh. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure if I got coleslaw or not. The customer service is nice and undeniably appreciated.

Also, in terms of value for the food, it was expensive for the portions you get. I paid around $50 for the meal in the photo attached. When we are surrounded by BBQ places that just do it better at a significantly lower price I can't recommend this place. Though I would highlight that the workers were amazing and incredibly helpful.

The restaurant itself wasn't much better--the dining area felt dirty, and the overall lack of attention to cleanliness made it hard to enjoy the meal. The staff wasn't rude, but they didn't seem to care that customers were leaving disappointed. It's unfortunate because every restaurant has bad days, but this felt like a place that has stopped trying altogether. At this point, it might be better for the owners to close the doors, regroup, and rethink the business rather than continue damaging their reputation. I can't recommend eating here in its current state.

Rush's has always been my favorite as a little girl with their fried chicken baskets to the hotdogs but on this go round I got a Junior Cheeseburger Deluxe Basket no slaw double fries.

I'm not sure if they were shortstaffed, but it definitely took a long time to get our food and apparently they were waiting for one particular sandwich to come out to bring the entire table so everybody's buns were completely fried on the top and needed to be replaced from the heat lamp. One person in our party got fries and didn't ask for him and of course they were on the bill, the Pepsi was flat and the waters were leaking all over the table. Our server was extremely sweaty and may need to consider a towel or something as he is greeting and serving tables. Food was OK. We had the smash burger, the BLT Smashburger, a grilled honey chicken plate the pineapple burger, a BLT type sandwich and the K-pop Korean chicken sandwich. We may consider giving it a try again. The chicken sandwich was really good and so were the Parmesan truffle fries, but I'm not convinced it's worth that kind of wait.
