Incredible! Marvelous! Best burger ever! I took a group of 11 on a Monday for lunch and wow, everything was awesome. John, the owner, is a tremendous chef with tremendous creativity as do all the cooks. My wife and I had the bacon-pimento cheese-fried green tomatoes and they were out of this world!! I had Steve's Classic Burger with blue cheese added and tots. My wife had the Bacon Is My Jam Burger with onion rings. Everything was AMAZING!!! We loved the casual atmosphere, the raised floor outer seating section, classic Coca Cola decor, huge knotty pine condiment bar, and fantastic service. GO THEIR for a great meal! read more

I love coming here every once in a while. The inspirational messages on the wall are a huge pick me up. The staff is vey friendly and the food selection is varied. My burger was full of flavor and the toppings are great. The selection of cheeses is better than most places. My daughter ordered the fried chicken sandwich, which was perfectly lightly breaded. read more

Steve's Classic Burgers - Burgers Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Bibles on the tables ...... Definitely not in California anymore. Came here during my first trip to Columbia when they were located in a smaller shop and bathe BEST Turkey burger of my life. So of course I had to try this spot again and I don't know what they do but man those Turkey burgers are phenomenal!!! I ordered the Turkey Burger Classic and onion rings with a fountain drink. The rings were on the greasier side which I could have went without but hey gotta have the full burger and fries experience. The service here was great. The restaurant itself was clean and the condiment bar was well stocked. The overall ambiance was for sure your local mom and pop joint you have to stop by weekly to enjoy a greasy well seasoned meal to ensure all is right in the world. Planning a trip in the upcoming month so I can't wait to stop by here to enjoy my favorite Turkey burger joint read more

Stopped off I26 for lunch. It was off the road a bit so we missed it at first. It's not what we expected. Feels like a restaurant, but you order like fast food. Everything is made to order so it isn't super fast, but the food is hot and delicious. The burger bar had all the toppings for you to add on as you like. Crinkle cut fries with malt vinegar on the toppings bar made my husband happy. I've been craving a bologna sandwich, so I had to order their fried bologna with American cheese. Served on toasted Texas toast, it was what I've wanted. The ice cream shop was a temptation but we ordered to go and had to pass. Loved the prayer wall where I had to add my 3 year old disabled grandson to the board, Elias Angel. praying for him to one day sit, talk and walk. It'll be a miracle. To read his story - EliasAngelStrong Every table has a Bible too. I have not seen that before. read more

My first time since the new owners took over and it was very good, staff were very nice and the place looks great and spotlessly clean. My burger was fantastic, the flavor was just perfect, I'll definitely be back to eat again. read more

Chose this place on a whim while traveling and we are glad we did . It's a simple, casual look. Probably wouldn't have chosen it by the look of the restaurant. The reviews were mostly very good so we decided to give it a try. Very friendly service and tasty burgers with good prices. read more

Delicious food, great price, wonderful service. I am sorry they are closing. They will be sorely missed

This place is amazing. Real home-cooked food. Had grilled cheese sandwich with mozzarella sticks and French fries. Very friendly staff. Classic food. read more

Everything about this place is just perfect! 5 stars & two thumbs up! The food was spot on as it was cooked perfectly seasoned well and the portions were perfect. I especially enjoyed the fresh condiment bar and condiment packets that were fresh and clean! Pay attention as the hours of operation are not typical. read more

Everything here was good. You walk in, order, and they call your order number out for you to grab from them. The service was fine, and ambiance was like a southern church kinda vibe. If you've ever been to a small church in the south you'd understand. Quiet but not too quiet, clean restaurant, and you get to put your own toppings on the burger with the condiment bar. I particularly liked that because I can put all the pickles and mayo I would like. The burger was good, and the fries are good too Id recommend adding the seasoning they have at the burger bar. The portion size for the chili cheese fries was really nice as well. As others said, they have a bible at every table and a prayer board. In my opinion, it wasn't overwhelming if you're not religious. They have an ice cream shop next door which we got a shake and a scoop of ice cream. Id recommend stopping here for a quick lunch and ice cream. read more

Another yummy visit. As much as I wanted a burger I tried something else and went with the Philly Cheese steak. Other than missing the taste of their wonderful burger I had a great Philly. The onions and peppers we're perfect, the steak seasoned tastefully and the soft bread. Onions rings were a great compliment. The family had Steve's classic and didn't leave anything to waste. Thanks, we will be back!!Hot Dogs read more

Steve's has remodeled and changed the menu. Husband found the old menu online and when we arrived it was a different menu but we gave it a shot. After 50 minutes our order arrived and it was evident it had been sitting for a while. My husband's order was not correct and mine( the special for the night) was bland. read more

Great food, reasonable prices, pleasant environment, convenient location. Staff is very friendly.

Burger was good. Prices reasonable. Had a bit of a wait but maybe it was them cooking the burger. There were not many people in when i was there. Interesting place. read more

The burgers we got were great. But my tater tots were so overdone they were hard as rocks. Get the fries instead.

Steve's is tucked away in small mall, but it's large lighted sign makes it an easy find. As soon as you walk in the door, the place screams casual with a capital "C." Just belly up to the counter and make your selections from the chalkboard menu. There you'll find a good variety of everything from different sized burgers, a veggie burger and a turkey burger. Toppings are extra, but are generous. Not in the mood for a burger, grab a toasted cheese, chicken strips, or Philly cheese steak. Need to back off from the carbs and go healthy? There are a couple of salads to choose from; did I mention sides--at least a half a dozen to choose from, ranging from fries to baked beans. Deserts includes cobblers, brownies or ice cream. Steve's also features daily specials. All in all, a good value and a tasty burger--their specialty! read more

Steve's Classic Burgers - One half pounder with sautéed mushrooms & onions. - Burgers Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Burgers like my grandma used to make and the people here are as nice as pie. The prayer board was very much appreciated.

Friendly staff. There is bar to top your burger. When you order you get a plain burger with bun. So you walk over to the "salad bar" setup to top off your burger. This was a unique experience. The burger was okay taste, I was expecting alot of flavor in the burger. The size of the patty was kinda small in my opinion for the price. Overall a decent burger place but nothing memorable to make me stop at the place on my next visit to Columbia. read more

While on the road, we tried to follow Yelp reviews, so we picked this place, because of its proximity to the interstate and the ratings. Partner got a burger which he said was good, but didn't eat his baked beans after tasting them. After reading that the cheesesteak was good, I got that. It was greasy, so I just ate the meat out of it in spite of it tasting "off." I got onion rings. Took one bite out of two different ones and chucked the rest. They tasted like they were cooked in old old old oil. My stomach hurt the rest of the afternoon. The people were nice, the place, although very worn and old, was clean. But there was a worn, dirty Bible standing on every table. I really didn't understand the high ratings, and that place certainly needed lots of prayers! And, no, we did not tell the manager, because it's so much easier to go down the road and get something else, than to try to point out to people what is wrong with their food. I don't have the guts to say out loud "Your food is gross, now make me something better." PS: And if I had read these snarky replies to bad reviews I would have followed my instincts and not gone in the first place. Lesson learned. read more

Service was excellent. I ordered take out. The burgers came out in no time so they were probably precooked. Had two different size burgers but you couldn't tell. They both were small and had a lot of gristle in them. The fries were nothing special and the tea wasn't strong. The service was great. The ice cream was good and a good portion size. I don't think it lives up to reviews and rather expensive for what we had. We probably won't be back. But at least we supported a local business. Wish them the best. read more

Came here about a month ago on a thrifting and Trader Joe's adventure and couldn't have been more pleased with my visit! The food was reasonably priced and very clearly made fresh to order! The staff was very kind and accommodated the tomato allergy my friend had. The building is a little dated but charming in a very hometown way. If you're in Columbia check them out then go next door for some ice-cream. read more

Steve's Classic Burgers - Burger toppings - Burgers Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Good food. Locally owned. Great service. Well Worth the stop.. great atmosphere with ice cream right next-door

We were looking for lunch in Columbia and found this place recommended on Yelp. It's located in the back of shopping center but was easy to find with our Google map. It's not a fancy spot but spacious and clean. There were tvs with sports channels in the corners but they weren't loud or distracting. This restaurant does feature Bibles on every table, Christian rock playing in the waiting areas, a giant prayer board and other religious iconography. I only mention it because that can be triggering for some. The menu consisted of different burgers, hot dogs and chicken strips. You can buy a single entree or get a combo with a drink (Pepsi products and tea) and fries. In our group we had 2 classic burgers with cheese (they offered 5 different choices), a vegan burger and a patty melt. The burgers come plain but they have a toppings bars with lettuce leaves, superior to lettuce shreds, sliced tomatoes, sliced onions, dill pickles, and jalapeños. The condiments are in packets. The cashier was super sweet and helpful. It was around noon so it was quite busy so we had to wait for about ten minutes for our food to be cooked. Everyone thought the burgers were very good. The fries were your average frozen Krinkle type. We also ordered some fried mushrooms which were good. Most of the combos were about $10-12 but they did offer some "monster" combos with really large burgers for up to $18. Interestingly they also offer two sizes of "take and bake" cobblers as well as individual portions. As good as they looked there is also an adjoining ice cream place called Snows Ice Cream that I will review separately. This is a solid choice for lunch and, while not gourmet or exotic, offers a solid burger that was better than any fast food place we could have gone to for lunch. read more

Phenomenal restaurant! I've been here three times and the food has been consistently on fire. I like to get a patty melt with a fried egg thrown on. SO GOOD! Tonight I got to meet the owner Steve and his wife. Wonderful couple, and the story of how the restaurant has evolved was great to hear. The KJV on every table is such a lovely cherry on top. Anyone who has an issue with Christian music should probably get to soul searching. Thank you Steve for the awesome experience! read more

Was passing through and found this place on a whim while looking for somewhere to eat with our dogs. Service was great, we loved the topping bar options and the good feeling of a family owned restaurant with lots of personal touches. Workers were super nice and the food was great and super fresh!

Staff was very friendly The burger wasn't bad(3/5). Fries were the best part. (4/5) the concept of putting your own condiments on your burger would be a lot cooler if there was more variety. My biggest gripe is it feels like eating in a church. Statues, bible verses, Christian radio playing and a bible on every table is SUPER strange and off putting. The whole vibe is off. Felt like a cult. For that reason alone I probably won't return. read more

Great hamburgers. Love the law guys eating there. Also like that you can make a choice of the topping for the burgers. Also like the Bible's on each table. read more

Sweet staff. Great food. Weird ambiance and kind of creepy at times when no one else is in there, but overall an enjoyable experience.

Amazing place. Amazing food. Amazing people. Support local family businesses and give them a try.

The food is delicious and the restaurant is clean and staff is really nice. Everything was great!!

Great food and prices! I eat there almost once a week. The people are so friendly and make you feel at home.

It's just like eating a homemade hamburger... Down home people. Nice touch is a bible on each table.

Have been here 3 times every time the burgers are absolutely amazing!! It's definitely a hidden gem!!! Would recommend to everyone to go!

This is a favorite place for my kids and it's not difficult to figure out why. The people are great, the food is really good and the attached ice cream parlor is the perfect spot to finish the night! The burgers are good and they have different sizes. You assemble the toppings so you know what you are going to get and you can have it your way. The onion rings are my choice but the kids love the crinkle fries. I tried the chicken too (my littlest one didn't finish his) and I might order some for myself next time! Crispy and juicy, and flavorful! The sundaes were good too! This place is also a great community fixture. They help YoungLife, have a prayer board, and they have a table near the entrance where local businesses can leave their business cards. If you aren't religious, you will still feel comfortable dining here. Steve's a nice guy and chances are, he will stop by and say hi and see how your dining experience is going. If you haven't tried it, you should! read more

They served an overcooked hamburger, I asked for medium rare, with provolone cheese and bacon! There was no bacon or provolone cheese , one would need a magnifying glass to find either one. It was served on a very small ice cold bun! I also ordered Onion Rings, they were greasy, and soggy! What a terrible waste, of time, money, not mention our disappointment. My fiend's Onion Rings were as soggy and they looked as they were cooked over it looks very dark! This is definitely not what I would call #a Classic Hamburger! read more

Greatest burger deal in town! Congrats for the long time in business. Fast. Fresh, Hot! read more

Stopped in with some coworkers after checking out the reviews on yelp. Glad we did! The staff was really friendly & you can tell that this place is a local spot because they knew a lot of the customers by name. They have a toppings bar so you can customize your meal. The food had a homemade feel & was super tasty. The mozzarella sticks were yummy too! I would definitely come back. read more
