Fantastic value for the amount of food. I dropped a star though because the fries were practically inedible. Everything else those was great for fast food comparison. read more

The food is always good, but if you catch the drive through line after 9pm it takes a ridiculously long time. The cheddar bites are fire though. read more

Seriously...best burger I've ever had. I ordered the cheddar burger, hold the mayo and add mustard and ketchup. It was soooo good. The cheese was gooey and dripping off adding to the the smokey bacon flavor I got in each bite. The grilled onions weren't overbearing either...just right. I also ordered a fresh peanut butter shake. It was awesome! It was so thick that I couldn't suck it up with a straw, it was spoon only. Overall, $7.60 for a burger and shake that taste like heaven is 100% worth it. I will be back! read more

Just went the Cookout for my first time. We ordered a slaw dog, a huge cheddar burger thing, corn dog, hush puppies, onion rings and two chocolate chip mint milkshakes for two people. First, we weren't given the corn dog. That could have potentially been the extra star there, who knows right? :) Overall feelings on what we did get: tasty, average, obviously cooked on a charcoal grill (hence "Cook out").. Less greasy than regular fast food. The slaw dog was fine. Average but good. The slaw was plain, not runny but not overly flavorful. The bun was soft and fresh. The onion rings were probably my favorite part. Not greasy or falling apart. Crunchy, but well cooked inside. Savory. The hush puppies had potential but they were dry. I took one bit of the burger and again it was tasty, charcoal grilled. The cheese resembled nacho cheese. The cooked onions on it were okay but I'd have liked them mushier. The bacon was fine. The milkshake is also very tasty but an hour later I'm still trying to " drink" it through the straw. Its very thick. The whole order was $16 and change. We went at 2:30pm today and it took bout half hour through the drive thru since its still new to the state. Milkshake cup notes Psalm 118:24 which says "The Lord has done it this very day; let us rejoice today and be glad." I am "glad" I tried it. I am leaning towards 3 to 3.5 stars because it's just fast food, but I am fairly impressed with the organization of the process given all the traffic. I am sure the crowd will die down in a few weeks and hopefully service stays good. Probably would not go back to this particular location unless I was in the area, because it is far from home. From the looks of the crowd today, I am sure more Cook Outs will be opening around Atlanta. Fast food worth giving a try. read more

It took me a long time to get here because the wait to get into the parking lot was outrageous. I mean back-up-Moreland-past-I20-wait-thirty-minutes outrageous. I wasn't willing to wait that long for fast food, so I decided to come back later. I've eaten here twice just to be sure, and the burger is outstanding. I've eaten two of the small burgers with cheese and bacon and it's more than enough to satisfy. It's amazing that they can get a burger this good out in drive thru time. I've had two shakes - chocolate chip mint and oreo cookie. I wish they had passed on the green food coloring with the mint shake, but it was tasty anyway. The shakes get two thumbs up, but be warned - they are thick. I almost had a stroke trying to use a straw. And they give you a spoon, so use it instead. I ordered the fries on my first visit, and I wouldn't order them again. They are floppy and mushy - not my kind of fry at all. On my second visit I ordered the hush puppies and OMG - come to mama! The hush puppies looked like mini corn dogs and were bites of crunchy-corn-mush deliciousness. The first time I visited, the drive thru line was still wrapped around the building so I went inside. I waited less than 10 minutes for my food but the wait was fine. The inside is crowded and tiny, so I wouldn't eat there unless I absolutely had to, but the vibe is good - everyone is just eating and hanging out. Most of the tables are picnic style w/ flat benches that can seat 4-6 people. The people working the registers inside and the people handling the drive thru are very friendly. I mention this because I wasn't expecting it. If nothing else, go for the burger because it's worth the wait. read more

Straight ghetto! Nasty burgers with a inch of onions just nasty. Get the 5pc nuggets the best

Park and walk right in, wait patiently in line and don't forget to order one of their 153 flavored milk shakes. yes folks, I too have taken a bite of the forbidden apple, aka combo #2...one too many times.

This little outlet is located along Moreland just south of i20 exit. I came here after a night of light drinking, feeling hungry, we decided to try Cook Out. Driving into the lot at 2am, there was a long line at the drive-thru. We decided to park and sit down instead. Parking was easy as everyone was in line.. Waking to the door, we saw a police officer stationed there. it was a pleasant surprise. I did not feel that this place had any problems that's why they stationed an officer there, in fact, her presence added to my feeling secure. Inside, the line to wait for food was long too but it was fast. We ordered and sat for about 15mins before our order number was called. I had the 99cts nuggets. Each pack had 5 nuggets. I ordered 2, and all 10 nuggets were moist and tender. It was fried well and freshly fried. I love it. If you ever need a night supper, come here. read more

So I had to go try this place that my friends that lived/went to school in North Carolina have been raving about for years. When I pulled up, the drive thru line was wrapped around the building. There was a worker whose sole job was to open the door for you and welcome you into the restaurant. I now understand why she was there because you just have too much stuff in your hand on the way out. The food is cheap and fast and you get a lot of bang for your buck. I really felt like I should have not been able to eat all of that food...I had a burger, corn dog, onion rings (which were super good) and one more thing I can't remember...to drink I had a big sweet tea that lasted me 3 days....it's just that much. I don't have to go running back for it but the food was good and fresh. read more

Not to much to say about this spot, me and my lady was out late, she was hungry, and instead of going to the traditional Mcdonalds, we stopped here. The menu was ok, for the late night craves. I'd go back for the simple fact that they open late ‍ read more

Did not receive all the food I paid for. Next time I will go directly across the street to Dairi-O.

Terrible service on the night on 11/14/16 at 2:17pm for $24.95 + $18 more on Postmates for an extremely improperly built set of burgers, missing 1 of 3 burgers, no cajun seasoning on ANY fries, 2/4 fancy shakes with the wrong order. Tried to call 4 times with not one person to answer. So I will not this Cookout or Postmates again. Update 3/6/17: Still Avoiding this Restaurant. read more

Not worth the hype... Prices are awesome, I'll give it that, huge portions for $5. The sides are way cooler than your average side dish. Corn dogs and quesadillas? Awesome. Quality of the food, not so much. I ordered double burger, fries, and a corn-dog. For a double, this burger is tiny! I can see why it's so cheap. Corn-dog is tiny and subpar as well. Fries were decent. The banana pudding milkshake was super thick and impossible to get through the straw, but was delicious. Service wasn't bad, it sure was odd though, also I'm not a huge fan of bible verses on my packaging, or religious music being played aloud. If that's your beliefs, that's cool, but don't jam it down my throat. Would I eat it again? Yeah. If I were broke and hungry. It's like a Burger King with college side options. It is absolutely nothing special. It's standard fast food. read more

I was actually really surprised how much I enjoyed this place. Friends from bands on tour have been raving about this southern fast food chain for years and I didn't think it'd live up to the hype. Honestly if there was a Cook Out in the northeast I probably never would have had Burger or Taco Bell as a kid. Their chicken quesadilla is almost identical to Taco Bell and their double cheeseburger blew Burger King's soggy whopper away. I'll admit, as a kid I loved the whopper but Cook Out makes an actual charcoal flame grilled burger I could taste. The pricing is relevant to fast food chains, probably a bit cheaper than most. The tray combo is an amazing deal. Choice of a main item, 2 sides or double up first item, and a huge drink for around $5. I got the double cheeseburger, chicken quesadilla, and hush puppies with a huge sweet tea. The hush puppies were my favorite side. This place definitely lived up to the hype. read more

They are rude and not helpful what so ever. Order was cold and wrong. I would give them a zero if I could.

Still a disappointment. Today someone at the drive they slammed the window in my roommates face when she pointed out she didn't get what she ordered. She was told "I don't have time for that." So then why are you working and being paid? I don't understand? read more

They mistakenly put bacon on my burger then got mad when I told them. When I received my new meal of a burger and a chicken wrap they put the OLD bacon I didn't ask for nor wanted in the wrap and took out the chicken. I am Muslim and don't eat bacon. I was nothing but nice when I told them about the mistake. I don't know why they felt the need to put the bacon the the wrap. read more

Tim and Joshua Turner had the BEST customer service!!! Employees of the month please. Thank you cookout

Complicated Order. I wanted to order 2 cook-out trays to go. First tray: one 1/4 burger with cheese "no condiments" and no onion. She looked confused. "Ok, a burger with pickles, tomato, lettuce and cheese". The cashier then proceeded the tell me what I should say to order. "You mean a burger without..." Not completely sure what is entirely included on burger, I restated my wants for a burger WITH.... But she went the "you want a burger without" route. We have this with/without burger exchange a third time, at which point I am now confused about what I would be getting. She sighed with impatience and asked about the two sides. I choose French fries and chicken nuggets. But, she goes back to the burger, I guess to repeat for clarity, I don't know - I am confused at this point. Once confirmed, she asked about the two sides again. I had to speak slowly: French fries and chicken nuggets. And please, a vanilla shake. All she said was $7.01. At which point, I dropped the hurdle of placing an order for the second tray and made my way to McDonald's. If you think the drive-thru driving/ordering is confusing, try going inside. Third time is not a charm. read more

Really glad this place has late hours, landed in Atl around midnight and my sister said this was the only place open that late. The food is pretty good, I got the Cajun chicken sandwich with cheese with a side of slaw and onion rings. The onion rings were good, but the portions were pretty small. I loved the slaw, it was crisps and sweet but not too sweet. It can be a little confusing on how to order at first, but the staff was patient with me and explained. And my food was still hot when I got it home. read more

Yeah, it's fast food. A little grimy. Customer service is a little blasé, but, at the end of the day, nothing beats a good corn dog and, if you didn't know it, you can get a hot out of the frier state fair worthy corn dog at Cook Out. In my book, that's five stars. read more

If you want shakes that taste good & don't break the bank, COOK OUT delivers. The specific shake I got was the vanilla one (my favorite). It was a vanilla shake w/o equal; the taste itself was far beyond my expectations. But that's just the beginning; the staff are great at their jobs & the restaurant is clean too. Here's hoping I return to C-O (& here's hoping it comes to AL) so I can enter shake heaven again. PS: They have those dyson hand dryers in the restrooms! Neat! read more

Finally got around to trying Cook Out, the big southern fast food chain with a sprawling menu of options that can make the head spin. Even though it was my first time trying it last Friday, I had an idea of what it would be - which is to say, a way to satisfy my need for a greasy, non-fancy cheap & tasty burger. While the food was cheap enough, the quality did not meet expectations. I would go for a McD's burger any day over this tasteless, small excuse of a patty. The fries were ok albeit a bit soggy. The oreo milkshakes, the thing they are famous for with their endless variety of mix and match choices, tasted like straight-up flavorless sugar. It was so thick I'm not sure why they gave me a straw. I also don't understand why it took 15 minutes to prepare as they didn't seem particularly busy. I ended up finishing a little over half before I decided the sugar high wasn't worth what I was drinking. I might consider going back late night at the right time and place and giving these guys another chance but I certainly would seek out other options first. read more

Very fast n good customer service and good team they are nice in respectful n they take they time

I was in Atlanta with my family and decided that we should go out and eat somewhere. This was the nearest location to the hotel and we were low on gas so we chose this place for the night. This place needed on revamp on decor. The place looked like a barn on the inside with chairs and tables from the 1990's all around the location. I heard people yelling across the restaurant at waiters that they had waited 15 minutes for food. We should have gotten out of there when we heard this. Customer service lacked with the front counter and dining room being void apart from 2 waiters and a cashier who was ignoring her duties and playing games on her phone. The cashier also put in the completely wrong order from what we got. We had to send the food back once and get a new order. We saw the cashier take the tray and throw it away walking into the kitchen to tell the chefs what to cook. The food was good in fast food standards, but overall missed spice. We had waited 6-7 minutes and were starving so we ate it anyways. This location was filled with crap workers, horrible decor and I shall not visit this location again. read more

Cookout is the bomb. Great for a mid-day lunch or late night grub...their grilled burgers are so flavorful and don't make you feel greasy and fat. Very lean. I got a Huge Burger(double patty) for 3.69, onion rings for 1.99 and a Snickers-Strawberry Shake! They have more than 40 shake flavors it's insane! They are so creamy and rich, takes a while to finish. Very good place for food anytime of the day. read more

Despite all my best attempts to sever the relationship, Charlotte (the city, not the spider) and I have a long (and continuing) history together. It's due to work, mostly; all my corporate HQs reside among their shining, uh, Applebee's and Grills de Macaroni. (Seriously, the last time I was up there, I asked my local co-workers to recommend a place for me to eat. They suggested "Taco Mac." I almost collectively punched them all in the throat.) I typically drive to Charlotte when I go up there. Yeah, the company will spring for airfare, but why bother at that point? With lines and delays and whatnot, it'll take me four hours to fly up to NC. I might as well drive and have my car. I can listen to my podcasts and stop off at my choice of one of two outlets malls on 85. Tis the stuff of which dreams are made. And this is how I becamse familiar with Cook Out. At first I thought Cook Out was some ratchet one off burger shack. Little did I know that that first Cook Out I visited was a ratchet burger shack that was part of a much larger whole--a Carolina institution even! "So I can get a burger and a chicken sandwich, and hush puppies and a hot dog and onion rings and pulled pork and a million different flavors of shakes? You want my order? Wait, didn't I just give it to you?" So yeah, that was my introduction to Cook Out. It's my secret shame whenever I head up to NC. My wife and my cardiologist both hate that I love it so. "Hey, where are you right now?" "Uh, in a strip club. Yeah, a strip club. Getting a lap dance." "Dammit, you're at Cook Out again, aren't you?!" But Cook Out was only for those out of town ocassions, a reward for enduring Arkham-level insanity as 18 wheelers try their damndest to add four more wheels (uh, mine) to the bottom of their rigs. Now, as if Cook Out corporate decided it best to bring the mountain to Mohammed, they open one on Moreland. Good Lord For better (or worse, according to my wife), it's Cook Out. Same stuff, same expansive menu. Same Carolina-esque option of putting cole slaw on everything. The line is crazy long, for it seems I'm not the only devotee in Atlanta. Still, the staff handles the crowds with aplomb. If only my colon would handle their onion rings equally well. read more

Here's the thing about Cook-Out. The food isn't orgasmic. You're not waiting in a drive-thru line that wraps all the way around the building for the best burger you'll ever eat. No. You're waiting for an ASS-TON of food for a tiny price. Don't get me wrong, the shakes are deliciously thick (although I am not a fan of their chocolate syrup, which is sad) and their burgers have that yummy grilled taste. But let's be real, no one would be waiting in line if the Cook-Out Tray combo meal totaled $10 instead of like, $5. Pro: There is an absurd amount of milkshake options. As I said earlier, the chocolate-based ones had sort of been a disappointment. The Cheerwine float, however, is legit. Con: Many of the sides are straight out of your high school cafeteria. The chicken nuggets, corndogs, and slaw take me right back to 1999 and the grassy area outside Senior Hall, as my friends and I talked and ate and sang along when someone blared out K-Ci and JoJo's "All My Life" through a contraband stereo. Pro/Con: The line moves pretty quickly. But a line is a line and if you're starving, it will seem like forever. Damn. Now I want some Cook-Out. read more

the service had a attitude the milkshake I got was made with old milk and the ambiance was nothing to brag on pick it up and do better.
