Jacks Old Fashion Hamburgers

Jacks has been a landmark burger place in Fort Lauderdale for over 50 years. I think the food is average at best. Very simple menu. Cheap prices. Have a feeling it once provided better food.

Jack's Old Fashioned Hamburgers has been in business for decades in Fort Lauderdale. After eating there, I cannot understand how it has stayed in business for such a long time. The cheeseburger was a GREASY MESS! There was grease oozing from the hamburger patty and running down my hands as I was holding it. The bun was rapidly disintegrating in my hands. I had to pick up extra napkins during my meal. When I had eaten half of the cheeseburger, I had to stop because I began feeling nauseous. After several minutes I attempted to finish eating the burger. No luck. Every swallow triggered the gagging reflex. Avoiding the risk of vomiting there inside the restaurant, I surrendered and departed. I like moist hamburgers NOT greasy meat sponges! I will certainly NOT return to Jack's Old Fashioned Hamburgers for an encore in self mutilation!

If you have fast food craving and want a quickie Jacks offers something a little different in that it is not a national chain. But it’s burgers and fries are tasty and it satisfied my needs.

The beef burger patty is amazing, so fluffy and fresh. Bun and toppings are very good. The roast beef is so good, Arby's shouldn't be in business. Simple hole in the wall restaurant, but so delicious. Amazing that we stumbled upon it. Friendly service.

We always eat at Jacks when we are in town. But this time the restaurant was dirty. Tables and floor were dirty. The womens bathroom was dirty. The toilet needed cleaned. Not sure if we'll return. What a shame for we love the hamburgers.
