    I saw this place while on a walk in the neighborhood and made mental note to stop by for lunch the next day, which was a Sunday. I did just that. I ordered a double cheeseburger with mustard, pickle and onion, because that's the way I like it. I decided to let them add lettuce and tomato. That was a nice change. The burger here was really good! It's very tall if you get a double, so get ready. I cut mine in half to make it more manageable. My dining companion ordered some fries and let me have a few of them. They were delicious with seasoned salt included. This is a great burger stand with no frills that does one thing really well. Well, I guess two things with the fries. If you have the room, try a shake too. I did not and wish I had.

    Such a delicious burger. Patty is excellent, fries are tasty, and ambience is great. Not a bad choice for lunch or dinner.

    DoorDash, cheesy jack extra patty. You need to be specific with the condiments because all I received was a meat patty meat fest. Cheese meat, nothing else. Because of these there was a lack of flavor. Didn't detect salt and pepper either. The meat however was high quality and thick. Fries - meh. Milkshake - legit. Like melted buttery ice cream being squirted into your mouth legit. There are probably better DoorDash options at 12am, I'd skip this place.

    Wow, The burgers at this small hole in the wall are great and the prices are unbeatable. Service was friendly and quick. The Chocolate milkshake was excellent.

    Came here to try their burgers, got the Wedding Ring burger. The burger was great, the onion ring in the burger is crispy, but they don't offer onion rings as side. The service was good, the place looks clean and neat but smells to much chemicals, I even tasted in my mouth.

    Tried Columbus burgers for the first time. Went around 1pm and there was some people inside, but definitely not packed. I ordered a dressed back which was like a regular burger with tomato lettuce onion and etc. I got my order to go but wish I had the chance to eat inside. The atmosphere is pretty chill. The burger didn't stand out to me. Aside from being relatively clean, the staff were nice.

    Yeah, a $10 burger in SF is a hella good deal. Still, you get what you pay for -- a burger that hits the mark after a drunken night out but doesn't stand on its own against sober lips. This little joint has a straightforward menu and operates until 11pm on weekdays and 2am on weekends (a true rarity in SF!). That being said, the pictures on the menu don't match at all with what you receive after ordering, which is certainly a red flag for any burger enthusiast. The burger had a good ratio of toppings-to-sauce and tasted great. The patty was a bit small, but can't complain too much when the check was under $30 for two people. The decor is cute with US license plates adorning the walls, though most of the seating is cheap, backless metal stools (they are extremely uncomfortable to sit in for more than 5 minutes). Would I come back again? After a night of drinking in the area, for sure. Definitely worth checking out, especially if you're tightening the belt on your wallet -- but if those aren't relevant to you, I'd recommending trying another burger spot (Uncle Boy's comes to mind if you're interested!)

    O M G. This was the hole in the wall burger spot I didn't know I needed. I was craving a burger and this place looked like a hit...they did not steer me wrong! Whatever the sauce is they use was an expected flavor explosion. I was expecting something like a thousand island sauce, but it ended up being like a garlic aioli. It was sooo good with the burger. And the fries...the fries were so crispy, seasoned, and delicious. The only thing I didn't love was the bathroom was not the cleanest. I'd definitely go again, I'd just used the restroom first. Lol

    Local- well lite hole in the wall. It's really good ventilation so you don't smell the smoke and armors - which can be a factor when attracting pedestrians. Service was good. Got in and ordered quickly. The burger was good. I got the Piggy Jack with bacon. The size was large. It maintains its shape when consuming. Not much juice leak. The fries were decent but a little bit too much salt and seasoning

    Amazing place to get burgers and they are open so late which is perfect after a night out in North Beach. I got a random burger off the menu with the most toppings and it was so bomb. The fries are ordered separately and they are so hot and crispy! We escaped Kel's because it was so stuffy in there and thankfully found Columbus Burgers. Thank you for saving us

    This is the cheesy burger. It is literally a thick, cold, generic bun and unseasoned piece of beef....and cheese.

    This is like a burger from a public elementary school. This is ridiculously subpar food. There's really not much I can say besides this isn't worth paying for. You're better off just going to McDonald's or something. It's that bad. And the crinkle fries? I guess they were OK but these items tell me that these people purchased the absolute cheapest ingredients possible and take zero pride and its preparation.

    After a night of drinking and smoking cigars a full Burger was in order. Columbus Burger hit the spot with warm service and Hospitality as soon as we entered the room. I thoroughly enjoyed that the menu is limited but good. All of the ground beef is made fresh. I ordered the dress Burger and I was surprised to see he brought out fresh hamburger meat to make a Smashburger. I had onion rings on my burger and it had a homemade taste without being over pretentious. I love the crinkle cut fries that were seasoned just right this place is simple and to the point burger fries and milkshakes. The Ambiance is really casual. You can eat there or take the food to go. I definitely would come back here next time I'm in the city.

    Best burger is San Fran. Juicy cooked burger. Fresh toppings and a wonderful seeded toasted bun. Great crispy onion rings. Definite stop!!

We had the French toast sticks, very good, as well as the classic breakfast dish, my partner had the breakfast burrito. Both dishes were decent, but we were there for the company mostly. The restaurant was quaint and cute, more compact, but had a secondary overflow area in a separate part of the restaurant. There were restrooms on both side, and Causewells served as a chill morning for us with our friends. The location had a cute bar set up for evening link ups, and the service was very friendly. The vibe is more of what you go for the food is decent but won't necessarily blow you away. Try them out and see for yourself. For tourists, or visitors of the city, the location is in the Marina District, so Golden Gate Bridge is near if you'd like to sightsee. This location is also very close to the Presidio theater.

Staff here felt a bit more apathetic than their counterparts at other locations, but that's the city lifestyle for you. Tables were left dirtier/less frequently cleaned than other Gott's locations.
