Menin McDonald'siin. Or "Kävin McDonald'sissa". Or if you want the spoken slang version: "Menin mäkkäriin" or "Kävin mäkkärissä." The "Menin" version implies more of that one went inside to McDonald's and is still there.

Menin McDonald'siin
(you go INTO it so you must use illative)
Kävin McDonald'sissa
(You visited in it so you must use inessive)
The first one "menin" you can use to say "I went to McDonald's" but also if you are still in McDonald's and want to let your friends know where you are.
The latter "kävin" is also a neutral way to say "I went to McDonald's" but it is also a past tense, you went there and you already got out.
