Jack’s Old Fashion Hamburger House in Ft. Lauderdale

Jack’s Old Fashion Hamburger House has been in Ft. Lauderdale since 1972. Jack’s is located in a former Burger Chef building which is a nice nod to burger history.

The second Jack’s location in Pompano Beach opened in 1973. In the late 1970s, there were 4 Jack’s Old Fashion Hamburger House locations (Deerfield Beach, two in Ft. Lauderdale, and another in Pompano Beach).

All these years later, Jack’s Old Fashion Hamburger House is a South Florida landmark.

As far as burgers are concerned, there are three different sizes available to order: Jack Jr. (1/4 lb), Original (1/3 lb), and Big Jack (1/2 lb). Luckily or unfortunately, it depends on how you look at it; I don’t eat lettuce, tomato, or onions on any of their burgers.

If you choose the lettuce, tomato, and onion route, you’re given a clear resealable sandwich bag with the veggies.

The burgers at Jack’s are Ground Fresh Daily On The Premises. If that isn’t the selling point of all burger selling points, you need to stop reading right now.

Jack’s hamburgers have a beautiful crust on the outside, which I love in conjunction with the white melty cheese they use. In addition, they use lean meat, which I find works perfectly with their housemade Mustard Dill Relish.

The fries were nothing out of the ordinary, but I prefer the chili cheese version if I order them. Jack’s Chili Dog suffers from OK hot dog and excellent chili syndrome. If you’re okay with that, this is the dawg for you.

Jack’s Old Fashion Hamburger House is an institution and an essential part of South Florida Burger History. They also have accolades under their meaty belt, so a visit here is a requirement for burger fans.

The first time I attempted to find Jack’s, I ended up at the Tortilleria Mexicana. I’m not sure how that happened, but I end the day with a cheeseburger.

  2. I ate there today after reading all the raves about Jack's.
    The burger was good, fresh and cooked properly. No outstanding flavors or seasoning. 1/2 lb. for 5.95, so it was reasonably priced.
    Fries were terrible, overcooked and cold.
    I would go back, but this does not rate in my "favorite burger" category.

  3. The best part of Jack’s is there is NEVER any gristle. Plus you put on your own condiments so it is exactly how you want it. Jack’s is awesome!
