About
If you're on the hunt for hearty, mouthwatering American comfort food, look no further than Jumbo House. Nestled at 1410 Nashville Hwy, Columbia, TN, this local jewel has quickly gained a reputation for delivering not just meals, but a true dining experience. With a phone call away at +1 931-388-2440, it’s easy to see why patrons keep coming back.
What separates Jumbo House from the myriad of dining options is its unwavering commitment to quality. Customers rave about how everything is freshly cooked, offering delicious options that range from crispy Jalapeno Poppers to juicy burgers. The reviews speak for themselves—the Triple Janie and Chuckwagon Sandwich are staples that tempt the taste buds and put a smile on your face with every bite. A culinary highlight is their catfish, available on select days and loved by regulars.
While the burgers steal the show, with many declaring them the best in the area, the sides are equally stellar. From onion rings to mashed potatoes, the variety adds a satisfying touch to any meal. Many diners, including the delightful 'Queen of my castle,' note that ordering ahead is a smart move to ensure the food is ready upon arrival, enhancing the overall experience.
However, the atmosphere deserves a nod too. Though it's a cozy spot that can fill up fast, as pointed out by first-time diner 'Sandra', it also features a charming patio—perfect for al fresco dining. Just keep in mind that the kitchen does generate a fair bit of smoke, leading to that iconic greasy diner smell lingering in your clothes post-meal. It’s a small price to pay for unforgettable food!
Jumbo House is more than just a meal—it’s a destination where flavors come alive, and each dish tells a story. Whether you're a local or just passing through, make sure this spot is on your culinary map. Prepare for a wait, relish the moment, and as many happy patrons recommend, you won’t regret it.
“ The food is very delicious everytime. It's better to order ahead so it will be ready when you get there if not it's still worth the wait ”
“ First time to eat here and we were not disappointed. The staff are all very friendly and the food is fantastic. Likely the best burgers we have in a very long time. The place is small and fills up fast with customers. But they do have a patio. ”
“ Always good. Lately I've been trying things on the menu I've never tried. Burgers are the best. Catfish is awesome, only served on certain days. I tried the wings. Love that they were dry seasoned instead of wet. This time they forgot my fries and so did I until after I left. Lol ”
“ First time here. Food was very delicious and had good portion sizes. They prepare the food to order, so it is freshly cooked. Prices are pretty high, though. Sides cost extra, with the exception of the plates. Easily spent 41 for 3 people. Ordered 2 burgers with curly fries each, 6 piece mozzarella sticks, fried mushrooms, and a BBQ plate. The staff is very friendly. Took one star off only because it is very smoky (from coming) inside with no ventilation running. ”
“ We have dined here for over a year now. Everything is affordable and delicious. This is a go-to place for a good hearty burger in the Columbia area. I love the livers & gizzards, corn nuggets, burgers, fried chicken, and chili dogs. Service is always great. Just be patient with your order. It will 100% take a while to get your food. (15-30 minutes wait) Ps. If you have plans to go somewhere after dining inside, you may need to spray a perfume or Febreze on your clothes. You know what I am talking about? That greasy frying oil smell will stay on your clothes and hair all day. ”
“ They don’t call it Jumbo for nothing! The 1.5 lb cheeseburger and fries will feed most people for 2 or 3 meals. The meat is cooked well, not burnt, but just crisped on the edges, even with a patty that is half an inch thick. The staff is quick and nice to take your order and drop off your food. ”
“ Best burger in the area. Just an old fashioned burger joint with good food, nice people, and low prices. Cost me 7.00 for the Jumbo (1/4 lb) cheeseburger, 9 corn nuggets, and a drink. The burger was phenomenal, grilled the good ole way with a fresh bun and fresh toppings. The corn nuggets were the best I’ve ever had, and I get them anywhere that’s offered. I also has some fries courtesy of my friend, pretty good too. ”
“ Great Food. 1st time ordering a small side of gravy. The small container of gravy wasn't even half full. The cashier agreed that there should have been more. Cook claims that is how much they are supposed to give. We were given a second small container half full, again. My hubby did appreciate it. Yes, we will be back. The food is great. But going forward, we will not be ordering any more sides of gravy. If we receive any more partially filled containers of sides, we will not order them again either. ”
