14 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Columbia

“Was nervous about going somewhere new.
But glad I did, the chicken was juicy.And not dry, and there was actually more chicken than breading, which is always a plus. If it wasn't so far for me, I would definitely make it a once a week place to visit.“

“Great 🌮 and 🌯 chips and 🥑 they are on 🔥🔥“

“The morning crew is outstanding. They are so pleasant and provide excellent service every visit. Shout out to Robin who makes my day when I see her.“

“Joselyn was fantastic! She greeted us warmly and timed everything perfectly during our meal. Her menu knowledge and attention to detail were impressive. Joselyn’s genuine hospitality made our experience wonderful. She deserves all the praise. Definitely five stars!“

“After visiting countless Chick-fil-A locations, I finally found one that got my order perfectly right! Not only was the service fantastic, but I didn’t have to go back because they forgot my pickles (which has happened way too many times!). It’s so refreshing to find a spot that gets it right every time. Huge thanks to the employee who provided such great customer service. I’ll definitely be returning to this location!“

“This is my favorite chicken joint in HoCo! The strips have the best flavor and if I bought them every time I craved them I’d be as big as a house. I have some minor suggestions for a better experience but none of them take away from how good the food is. 1, I wish you could get a meal with a boba tea. My husband always wants one with his food. 2, The parking lot is small and busy with very little turn around space which can be tricky during peak times. 3, sometimes they forget extra sauces in to-go orders (everywhere does this though), but the last time I carried out the young man at the counter was very accommodating and offered even more sauce if that wasn’t enough. And finally 4, I swear the spice level is different every time I order, lol. It’s fine, it’s not a problem for me but I can see it being a problem for others. Sometimes I get mild and it’s perfect, sometimes it’s not spicy at all, and occasionally my lips will be on fire for 30 min after eating. I’ll continue to daydream about the delicious chicken here and after writing this I think I’ll order today. Yum!

Parking: It’s in a strip with other stores and there is some competition for spots sometimes.

Kid-friendliness: Good size tables for families. Nice vibrant fun decor.“

“on a Tuesday night drive thru the person taking my order did a very nice exceptional job at getting my order correct and nice also definitely goes a long way the fries are almost always fresh and the burgers are always warm and fresh it's not a Michelin restaurant but they do a good job of taking care of their customers!“

“Seriously exceptional Taco Bell location. I order here a lot. They are so friendly, the environment is always clean, the food is always hot, my order is always right. Picking up online orders in the drive-thru at this location is also very easy. And it doesn't matter if it's breakfast, midday, super late, the staff is always sweet, they're always doing their best, quality is always on point. I never have to ask for napkins or anything that should be included for what I ordered. Y'all do such a great job. Thank you for being there (especially when it's late, in a semi food-desert, and hot, affordable food is needed). Don't work too hard!“

“I ordered a meal at the Columbia (Dobbin Rd) restaurant for curbside. When I got there and parked. Before I could even put the parking space number in the app, 2 lovely young ladies were already bringing my food out! Talk about going above and beyond.“

“This shake shack is always super goof. Food is fresh and hot the service is friendly! Everything is usually pretty clean as well, I think maybe once it looked a little worse than usual but it was busy so forgivable.

This location does get pretty busy and it can get kind of loud but it's in an ideal location so makes sense. Wife and I love this place.“

“Delicious food and excellent service! 😉“

“Ordered a meal off the app, selected to pick up inside, and it was ready when I arrived. Updated and modern interior. Self-serve soda fountain was not working when I visited, but was still able to get another drink before leaving. Nice workers.“

“Big shoutout to Sailey. One of the dopest people I’ve ever encountered. Her energy was through the roof. It was my first time trying Mod. She walked me through it & put together a banger of a pizza. Definitely ask for her when you come through.“

“Great food, friendly staff. BTW - Am I the only one that thinks Popeyes is the stingiest with condiments though, not just this location, in general, can we get another drop of ketchup and an extra pack of sauce without a special request? If I get three packets of ketchup for an order of fries, they all three go to waste, but hey if I get five packets, I use four and only waste one. Just saying, I’d rather have none or 5, three feels pitiful. Like I want to donate an extra 5 cents so they can afford to offer that extra pack without going out of business. Or maybe we should save them up and have like a special visit where you use all six packets, you know like on your birthday or something. Seriously though, when it’s hot, it’s good and it’s hot today! ??✅✅✅“
