    Cook out style burger
    Is S.

    My wife is busy tearing someone a new one. Will see what happens to this review once it's all said and done! The drive-through is quick, I'll give them that. But they are making time at the expense of being organized. What a mess --Update: adding a star. As I was sitting in line I was looking at the previous reviews and wondered if the same kinds of things would happen to us. It turns out it did and so I made sure to check our order. We got the order from the car in front of us and they got ours, but the drinks were right. I went back up to the drive-through and they had no clue what happened, what I had, etc. Fortunately the lady in the other car walked up at the same time and we exchanged the food. When I got back to the car I checked again and saw that our "double" onion rings equates to 3. I get double onion rings every time I go to cook out and the amount is usually 7-10. So my wife went back up to the drive-through and spoke to the manager and he made it right. In the end the food was good Cook Out quality. Their tenders and burgers are pretty consistently great as are the fries and onion rings. I know that businesses would probably prefer to resolve the issues that come up instead of receiving a negative review, but it makes it difficult to do when there is a drive-through only situation. I have been to many different cook outs and I've never had this kind of issue. In my mind the solution is for the store management to figure out how to organize their system better and provide training with emphasis on accuracy over speed. In the end would I go to the store again? I sure would, but I would definitely be checking my order before I left.

    Burger that was supposed to have cheese, onion rings, and the smallest amount of cheese bites humanly possible.

    Paid money for this crap. Order wrong. Food is absolutely atrocious in size and temp.

    Great place to stop in for a quick lunch. We both ordered the trays with regular hamburger with cheese mine French fries and cheese curds. His with onion rings and hush puppies. I loved the music that was playing was Sirius radio the message and loved the verse on the cup I never knew that was a part of cookout :) Good food for fast food and reasonably priced!

    Tender in a chicken sandwich?   What a disgrace!!  You obviously don't care about your customers.
    Layla P.

    Disappointed and obviously they don't care about customers. Order two Cajun chicken sandwiches and ended up with two small piece of tender. What a damn joke.

    Gave me half a burger...

    I know it's cookout but this is just disrespectful. I wouldn't even care but this is like the 3rd time they've messed it up

    Hair in my fries.
    Cheyenne W.

    I tried giving cookout another chance and once again , our orders were wrong , not to mention we got cheese fries and this is the amount of cheese you charge me extra for ? This is just a waste of money

    Chicken quesadilla that doesn't even have melted cheese. It was still cold....
    Rachel P.

    Got through the line just to have a cold quesadilla that didn't even have melted cheese

    The Cookout burger, lettuce tomato onion and extra mayo the flavor set them apart from the pack of quantity over quality burger joints its close to homemade smoky juicy and i loved every bite quite often. Haven't ate at this location in a while but due to winter weather grabbed a double burger and was very disappointed it was a dry bitter small patties on a stale tasting bun nightmare. What happened to the juicy backyard flavor? All the fond memories faded like the flavorless pucks of (meat?)that was on this bun. Save your tastebuds the shock eat somewhere else.

I will say that it hasn't been consistent for us, though, as far as the quality of food and service. I've never had a bad meal necessarily, but some visits are better than others. The staff is always super nice! One Sunday afternoon we came in about 2:30/3, and there were maybe 4 other diners there. We didn't receive our food for about 45 minutes and it was nothing overly complicated so that was odd. Just things like that I've noticed. However, when it's good, it's real good! I live about 20 minutes away and it comes up as a viable option quite often. Their bourbon selection is extensive and they have good specials. I also love the bar and patio areas. The decor is beachy and fun. Check it out!

It is our absolute favorite spot for burgers. Like seriously, no other burger has been able to touch the flavor bomb in my mouth that I get at Barcelona.

Everyone at the front counter is always cheery and welcoming and the wait for food is never long maybe five minutes. everything is fresh made right when you order it. the sweet potato fries are absolutely delicious. It's a low-key casual spot that has a beautiful outdoor seating in the back. Beautiful as in, very simplistic tables and chairs, but in a cute little garden like area that has sun shining in and plants. it's a cute little feel. Now these burgers, are delicious. We've only gotten the Barcelona burger and not tried other options because that one is so freaking good. The single has even more flavor than the double somehow because on the single patty, you can taste all of the additions: the Barcelona sauce, the tomato, the lettuce, and all of the flavors just explode. Their meat is tender. It's a thin patty and it's just delicious. If you're looking for a good, simple burger that's packed with flavor and you aren't looking for a gigantic hunk of meat, This is your spot. They do offer beer and bottled drinks and they also have desserts on site.

They stay busy so the food is always hot and fresh, the price is right, especially given what big chain fast food wants for a way worse product these days. It's a fairly big place, so you can almost always get a seat indoors... even if they are busy, the line moves quick. Only things I would change, I feel like they could simplify the menu and make things even more affordable. I have literally never seen anyone order half the things on there, most people stick to the burgers, dogs, chicken, and ice cream. Other thing I don't love, christian rock music on repeat in there, not that you can USUALLY hear it with the ambient noise.

Regardless of whether it's dine in or take away, the quality, quantity, and presentation are the same. I could describe in detail, several of my favorites, but I'll keep it "short". The Bianca flatbread and the Caesar side salad are TO LIVE FOR! I say that because once you taste it, you'll want to live... just so you can taste it again. I'm notorious for customizing my orders at restaurants, BUT THIS!? No modifications necessary! I've eaten pizza in Italy and this flatbread could easily earn a place on those menus. The balanced flavor profile was thoughtfully composed and well executed with the creamy sweetness of the ricotta, the earthiness of the spinach, the added pepperiness of the red onions, and the umami brought by the roasted tomatoes. All blanketed by layers of melted mozzarella and drizzled with a rich balsamic glaze! Pair that with their HUGE Caesar side salad and you have a well balanced and filling meal. One final thought before I step down from my soap box: I don't know whether it was intentional, but in numerology the number 6 symbolizes harmony, stability, community, and nurturing. Fittingly, that's exactly what Sixty Six Grill has created. A place where consistently excellent food and welcoming hospitality bring people together.
