    Burger tray half half Cajun fries and onion rings
    Hanaa K.

    Everything was delicious. Got a burger tray with half fries and half onion rings. Also got a shake (more like ice cream) Super quick line. I like how they have the line going on the opposite side for the passenger to pay. Friendly staff.

    Cook Out is usually a decent amount of fast food for the price, but I was definitely disappointed with the quality of this visit. I ordered a Jr. Tray (small burger) with a corn dog and onion rings. The burger was good, but the corn dog and onion rings were slightly on the cold side. My husband ordered a double burger with hushpuppies and fries. There were barely any fries in his tray. We also ordered two different milkshakes, but they gave us two of the same flavor. Service is typically quick, but this location is a nightmare trying to get in and out of from the traffic of the cars. They are building a new Cook Out across the street so hopefully that should help the flow of traffic better. I'd give Cook Out another shot because I know they've done better before.

    Food came out hot and good last night with great portions of fries! And the sodas were not watered down. The only downside was that they had no bags and condiments and didn't give me any straws for my drinks.

    Second time at cookout in NC and I'm obsessed! Service has been amazing both times. I will say I get overwhelmed with the menu but it's by far my favorite fast food place down there! Their Corn dog, onion rings, and hush puppies are everything. The spicy chicken sandwich was a bit dry, but the flavor was there. Will definitely be back!

    Double cheese burger we order. The first one was wrong and this one the burger patties small skinny slivers of meat

    I usually enjoy cookout. This is by far the rudest location I have EVER been to. They cut you off while ordering. When you drive up to the window to pick up your food the employees are vaping while they cook and take orders. You can see piles and piles of trash and debris all over the floor. (I understand back of house can get messy, I've been in the service industry for over 15 years, but there is an absolute limit between it being "rush time messy" and absolutely filthy. Then to make it all better the employees find themselves getting irritated with the guest when the employee made their order incorrect. Someone from corporate definitely needs to take a look at how this location operates.

    food tastes fine. but i ask for a cheeseburger with pickles, and then they put 7 rings of onions. and the patty is practically half the size of the bun. and out of ranch? come on. disappointing.

    Plain vanilla no fudge no Carmel no walnuts and no snickers..... money well wasted

    First off to start, rude customer service. I was asked three times what I wanted and each time I got placed on hold after. After ordering my food I came to the window and received my meal. First off I explained to the lady we're missing our chicken nuggets and she got rude saying no your foods all in there, I tried to hand it back so she could see and she refused to look. I also ordered a Carmel fudge shake with snickers and walnuts. Drove off thinking it would be fine and what do you know "PLAIN VANILLA"! This is the worst cook out ever don't ever go. This is the second time they've messed up this bad! I will be writing a bad review on every site possible. Koi

I still beat the storm but this stop took way too long. They don't have a Mobile thru so I had to wait in one of the two regular drive thru lanes. This line didn't seem to be moving though. More staff came out and got the line moving. Those two lines merge into one lane to pick up the food. They have two lanes but one is used to leave after you get your food. I actually liked that. The one lane didn't seem to back up so the second lane wasn't used so that second lane might be better used for a second food delivery lane. I am likely a little spoiled as other Chick Fil A's have my food ready to go when I get to the window if not before and are better organized and operated with great employees. This one just seemed very disorganized and that they couldn't handle the demand. They could use some tips from better run Chick Fil A's. The employees were not friendly as they usually would be at Chick Fil A and I was surprised that I was given a dirty lid on my lemonade. At least clean it off. My food was cold too. Maybe it was an off night.

I absolutely "cha-cha'd" to the counter...LOL Some of the employees do not speak good English... a young lady came from the back to assist me. I ordered the shrimp tacos (grilled). These were cooked to order. You get 5 free toppings and after that, they charge you. I got yellow rice, black beans, red cabbage, shredded cheese, and pico. I asked if I could have the taco sauce on the side. Didn't realize that (taco sauce) is "considered" a topping, so I was charged extra. I asked for a side of guac.... didn't realize it is $4.25 - I posted the 'size' of the guacamole in my pictures. ( I'm never doing that again.) I asked after buying how was the guac, the lady didn't lie, she said that she really didn't like their guac ‍ - I should've asked prior to paying. All in all, I got 3 grilled shrimp tacos with a side of guacamole for $20. I'll try something different next time.

And yet, that would be a mistake, because the quintessential diner food served up here is very, very good, and they've been doing it for 38 years now. One reviewer said that TGK stands for The Greek Kitchen, or it might be the initials of the owner, T. G. Kantsoulas, and he still runs the place along with his wife, Olympia, who still does the cooking. And that cooking is very good, utilizing quality ingredients and family recipes, which includes a few Greek dishes - a Gyro and Souvlaki. We settled on the Spaghetti with house made Meat Sauce, a Hot Dog ATW, a Double Cheeseburger, and Tater Tots. Olympia does all the cooking, generally to order, so time out of the kitchen is not exactly fast food speed. The Spaghetti was excellent, with plenty of noodles. You can order more meat sauce for $1, and we did, and it was even better. The sauce is made in house, and there is a nice sharp tomato taste. The accompanying side salad was fresh, and the Blue Cheese Dressing was very good. The hot dog was super - a nice wiener, great slaw, and the home made chili was very meaty, and loaded with flavor - this is my kind of old school Chili Dog. The double cheeseburger was big, and was excellent , as well - a perfect diner style burger. The Tater Tots simply could not have been any better. Seriously, they are every bit as good as the ones at Jake's Billiards in Greensboro that I order every time in. These are friendly folks, serving up excellent food. Give it a try - just know what you're coming for, and what you're coming to, and you'll be pleased.
