“Freddy's is one of my favorite fast food places. They have a special fry sauce you can buy bottles of within their locations (or at your local grocery) and a special seasoning I really love. The tots are better than Sonic by a longshot, and more quantity. The fries are smaller than McDonald's fries, but more consistent in how they are cooked/texture. They have old fashioned burgers and their frozen custard is delicious as well. Recently tried their onion rings and was impressed by those as well. I don't like the crumbly breading most far food places use. Freddy's is similar to beer battered, a nice thin layer of crispy goodness. Overall a great place if you are hungry, just want a snack, or something sweet.“

From all of my drive thru, take out or eating in experiences they rarely serve me what I've asked/ paid for, thank you Steak N Shake, the food and customer service were immaculate. We will be back!“

Mort's in the Shack Hamburger • $
901 Rollins St, Columbia

“this place. ermm. ok so they do chicken and burger... never had the burger. they do their chicken better than chick fila tho which is nice. there's a bunch of games and stuff around and like they have a cool way of food... these little coaster things that vibrate when the food is done (pro tip: make sure to put it upside down so it makes way more noise. it can be quiet so this just makes sure you don't miss it) my only qualm with such an establishment as this is inconsistency... but that qualm is only valid during closing time; some food is a little cold by the time it gets out. if you like lore than this place is for you. it has lore. the hand sanitizer is kinda in the student center. the prices are ok with dining plan cause like it's at a discount.... overall this place is good for a student to eat food when hungry and to get a drink too. also the variety is somewhat limited but y'know they do the stuff good rather than having a bunch. they got this fake meat to. also the chicken is halal too so yeah. they do close pretty early though so get your food on before 4:30, also vegan stuff

Vegetarian options: they exist“

“Server was great. A friend and I were having a "working dinner" and when we arrived shortly after 6:00, we sat at a booth. The outside dining area was pretty full, but not so much inside, so the atmosphere was good for us to talk. Around 8:30, more of a night crowd was coming in.Bathroom is clean enough but could definitely use some work.Food was good and at a good temperature. The soda had a funny taste to it. It was a Diet Coke, but had a fruity or flowery taste to it. The server got me another, and it tasted the same.The seating in the booth was pretty flat; I remember that being the case from the previous day I was there at another booth.

Parking: Plenty of parking when we arrived a little after 6:00, but full when we left at 9:00. Two handicap spots.

Wheelchair accessibility: Doorways are wide enough, but not automatic. Not much floor space.“

“!!!THE BEST OF COLUMBIA MO !!!!
!!!!10/10!!!!!

No matter how long it's been since I've stepped through these doors, it always feels like home. It is truly a unique and perfect dining experience time and time again. From the counter to the wait staff and even the comfortability of the seats/tables. The food is always perfection as well. This trip I ordered a gyro and a salad bar trip. Most people wouldn't expect to be wowed with such a simple order (myself included), but they never cease to amaze me here. The onions are somehow perfection themselves, which in my experience is an impossibility to predict during the purchasing process. The jalapeños I had added were just the right amount of flavor. Again, an impossible task when I'm shopping for myself, but it's just the normal way of business here at Angelo's. The gyro itself is the absolute perfect portion, and I'm not a small guy. It filled me up without weighing me down. The salad bar options are simple and straightforward, which suits my tastes perfectly. There are few things more frustrating than too many choices when making a salad and finding that perfect balance between healthy options and being inundated with too many choices is an art form other restaurants could take a lesson from. If all that wasn't enough, the very best part is how quick they get the food out to you. The temperature upon arrival to the table couldn't have been better. Legitimately just a touch hotter than you want to bite into but a solid reassurance that it's freshly cooked while somehow being so mouth-wateringly presented that it makes a guy question if a little bit of heat on the ole tongue would be a bad thing. By the time you get the gyro sauce onto the meat, it's the absolute perfect consumption temperature.
In summation, if you're not eating here when you are in Columbia, you're missing out. 100% will return next time I'm in town!!!!“

“I enjoyed this place, a small drive up sit in your vehicle and get some good food and great rootbeer float. If looking for something new or new to the area, I recommend stopping in. I ordered the chili dog and chili cheese fries with a root beer float. They have a jib hamburger that's like a sloppy Joe, pretty good, and several other options worth giving it a try. Just a heads up, make sure to take cash, but the sign said local checks are OK. The building is on the back side of the street, so you might miss it if you are going down the main street. Just informational. Service was great, and the chili and rootbeer is homemade, I believe the lady informed me.“

“Noah that’s a lie. It would be believable if it wasn’t for the fact that you touched on every area that would make someone leave. Should have stuck with facts. No black music? Mabe they just don’t like rap? Is it racist to not like rap? Do you like country? Do you know any country? If you had a club would there be country music avalible everyday? Prolly not. All good tho. Did you go in the back and confront the manager? Prolly not. Good luck in life son…you need it.“

“Thank you for the Amazing customer Service. The evening crew& manager went above & beyond. my kids & I were treated with the true definition of Respect & Proper Customer Service! Sun evening right before closing time we stopped by to get ice cream for my kids birthday & were greeted with such great mannerism.
I wish I knew the name of the guy manager & 2 young ladies working so that they could get the recognition that they deserve.
The store owners need to know that they have THE BEST NIGHT CREW THAT I'VE ENCOUNTERED IN THE PAST 4YRS. I'VE BEEN in the Customer Service work field for almost 20yrs & I finally found a team that worked together, maintained professional mannerisms &made us feel welcomed!
To the young adults that worked on 3-2-25 Sunday after 9pm, I want to thank you. The store was clean & even with a line of cars in the drive through, you all still treated us with compassion.
Be proud of yourselves... Y'all deserve a raise. I truly appreciate the kindness we were treated with even when you were really busy and ready to go home!“
