    Please don’t go here!

    We decided to go here due to the “rave” reviews. We had a totally different experience! first of all, there are a lot of dogs on the patio. However, it is not heated. we had to ask for water and treats, contrary to what was posted. The floor was so dirty and food scraps everywhere. It was hard to keep your dog from eating all of the French fries, chips, etc. Gross!! And the service was awful. No tables being bussed, took 45 minutes to get our cold food, and people coming in could not find the hostess desk tucked back inside the restaurant. This is obviously a very poorly managed restaurant. I am sure there are better dog friendly burger places in Columbia.

    Great location and Very dog friendly

    We stopped by here for lunch and sat on the patio with our pup. They brought our dog a bowl of water and complimentary dog bones. Food and ambiance were very good. Would definitely return.

    Great food and super dog friendly!

    As soon as we sat down, they brought water and a dog treat! They refilled it with ice water and brought another bone while we waited for our food. Many of the staff came by to talk to and pet our dog. Such friendly staff! The burgers were really good as were the fries and onion rings. highly suggest you visit with your pup! Save room for a milkshake!

    Excellent Porch

    Excellent spot for dogs. Our 18 week old puppy was treated like royalty with a water bowl. They even have dog treats on the menu (we didn’t order). Plus the burgers were great

    Great place to relax!

    Brought my 6mo old puppy and he was greeted by several people! They gave him water and bones (and all the love he could handle!).

    Food was good but a bit expensive for what it is. Great place though!

    dog bones for all

    I brought my pup here a few weeks ago and she was greeted by the doting wait staff. The food was fantastic and the waitress even brought Fido a nice juicy bone. The patio is covered and great for hot or rainy summer days!

    So wonderful for people and pets

    Nothing but rave reviews. Travelled down from Maryland to see my daughter at USC. Took her and a friend to Grill Marks along with our white lab Buddy. Even with 30 degree temps outside the heated porch was great as was the food and the service. Our waitress, the hostess and two members of management came to check on us repeatedly, making sure that Buddy was ok and our experience was fabulous. At the end of our meal, Buddy even got a Valentine from the staff. If you are travelling with a dog, do yourself a favor and enjoy great food and great service with no stress!

    Great place to eat.

    Went here last Wednesday afternoon with a friend and we took two of our younger dogs with us. First of all, nice to see a sign that welcomes you with: "Dog Friendly Patio". We were greeted and seated on a nice large mostly enclosed patio that had over head heaters on. The manager made a special stop very quickly to ask us how we learned of the place and mentioned this site. He thanked us for coming out with the pups and a server brought out fresh water in a bowl for them. Food was spot on and brought out quickly to our table during peak lunch rush. Several servers stop by the table to talk with us about the dogs and take pictures. Service was great and everything went perfect. We would recommend this place to anyone wanting a great burger and drink with their four legged buddy.

    Fully equipped patio.

    Their dog-friendly patio is partially enclosed (great for stormy days when you still want to bring Fido), and equipped with a working fireplace and propane heaters for Columbia's two cold weeks, and misters for the 50 hot ones.

    Great Burgers!

    All American Grill. Burgers, Shakes, and Bar. Great food, excellent atmosphere. They boast that pups are allowed on the amazing patio, and water bowls are available. Patio is heated in the winter.
