    Big double burger house style
    Noah E.

    Tastes like a burger from an actual cookout. And a burger for under $5 can't beat it.

    I tried Cook Out for the first time this weekend and I realized- I have been missing out my whole life. This place is the shit. It's so cheap, so many options and open late night. This would have been my go to in high school/ college if it were around, but I probably also would've ended up 500lbs. This places shakes are beyond amazing- I had the banana pudding and it had chunks of banana and nilla wafers. The white cheddar cheese curds gave me the ultimate cheese pull, and the burger was loaded with flavor. You really can make your food what you want at cookout, everything is so customizable! I love you Cook Out!!

    This place is so great and the prices are insanely cheap. The vibe of the inside of the restaurant is comparable to any typical fast food joint and you just order at the counter. The food came out really fast and the staff was nice.

    Stopped by here after attending a concert at the arena and the whole arena seemed to be here as well. The drive thru line circled around the building and the line inside was just as bad. There were three workers manning the registers and so the line moved pretty quickly. The workers were definitely not having it though as they all looked mad to be there... I ordered a plain cheeseburger with fries and my sister had the bacon cheeseburger with fries and an Oreo shake. It took about 20 minutes until our number was called out. It was chaotic in there as everyone seemed to still be rowdy from the concert. The workers were all stressin. We picked up our food and we decided to eat back at the hotel. My burger was decent as it had flavor and was cooked well. They added bacon to it even though I asked for it to be plain. My sister said her burger was really good and she really liked the shake. The fries were a little to soggy for my liking. Overall the food wasn't bad. The service was crappy though.

    This was the only late night food that was open when we were in the area. This is basically a fast food joint that I've never heard of. From what I understand there's a few locations but not many. It's a standard hamburger and hotdog joint with a few other items like bbq and chicken sandwiches. Apparently they're also known for their milkshakes. I went for their combo meal which included a chicken sandwich, a corndog, french fries, and a drink. I decided to try an Oreo shake for my drink. It was OK but nothing to rave about. In fact, all my food was just OK. The thing that struck us most about this place was The ordering and pick up process for your food. You ordered at a counter, but picked up at a different counter. But the way the restaurant was laid out you had to walk around a section of tables. If you go to the order counter, they won't give you your food, even if nobody's there, they make you walk around to the other section of the counter. Odd. My friend tried an old-fashioned float and he liked it so much, he got a second one. If you're hungry, this place works...especially late!

    Fast food quality, only good for when you're drunk. The buns were soggy and lacked flavor.

    Today was my second time here :) I had a "regular burger" with tomato, bacon, and cheese. My bacon seemed to be undercooked but the flavor of the burger was good, tasted even better with some of their buffalo sauce. I also had a small order of their "cajun fries" and they were delicious! (Adding the buffalo sauce on them made them taste even better as well). Lastly I had a small vanilla milkshake, last time I came here I remembered it being so thick that I couldn't even drink it... so this time I specifically asked for it to be more on the liquid side, lol but no luck today, it was thicker than thick. The taste is good but its not drinkable so grab a spoon! The service seems to always be friendly and helpful here, and the restaurant is big enough for groups.

    Upon entering the establishment, we were greeted with mutli-color barriers to route you around the registers. It was an odd layout. The food was prepared pretty quickly. However, the food tasted like it has been sitting around for awhile. The burger patty was also very small - about half the size of the bun. The price was the best thing about Cook Out.

    Why is it always so so cold? Love the food but eating inside is painful. I wish it was warmer.

Daddy's Dogs delivers exactly what you'd hope for from a late-night Nashville hot dog stand. The dogs are big, have a satisfying snap when you bite into them, and look good enough that you'll be tempted to take a picture before eating them. We both went with the New York Dog: mustard and sauerkraut. Simple. Classic. Delicious. And let's be honest, when it's pushing 2:00 AM, your dining options become a lot more limited. The fact that Daddy's Dogs is there serving hot food when much of the city has called it a night earns points all by itself. Now for the plot twist. By the time we got back to our hotel, both of us were dealing with stomachaches. Coincidence? Maybe. Bad luck? Possibly. The hot dogs tasted great going down, so I'm not ready to convict anyone based on one experience. Still, I can't completely ignore it either. So here's where I landed: Good food. Convenient location. Excellent late-night option. Questionable ending to the evening. Three stars. Because while the dogs were good, my stomach and I are still debating the final score.

I stopped by with some friends on a Wednesday night around 7, and we were some of the first people here. The bar quickly filled up, but it never felt too crowded, and never took more than a few minutes to order at the bar. The drink selection is decent - they have a few drafts, some basic cocktails, and dozens of cans available. Again, everything is reasonably priced, especially for Nashville. Their food menu is bigger than you'd expect, and they're known for their hot dogs! Our group tried several different dogs ... my favorite was the Burnt Ends dog! Simply dressed with a buttery bun and a smoky finish, this is a delicious bar snack. There is a FREE parking lot outside, which is such a rarity in this part of town that it's worth highlighting. However, it looks like it fills up quickly, so if you're planning to visit later in the evening, I recommend ordering a rideshare!

    I visited Lucky's 3 Star Bar on a Friday night with a few close friends and let me tell you,…read moreLucky's is definitely not a three star place! Vibe: A very casual sports bar! Feel free to show up in shorts and a t shirt. They have darts, a pool table, and tvs all over the bar to keep you entertained while you have one of their house cocktails, local beers, or a bite to eat. They play a variety of music. The rock music played until about 1am at which point it started to switch over to throwbacks and hip hop. Logistics: This bar is located in the heart of Wedgewood-Houston. The staff are attentive and friendly. Unfortunately there isn't a ton of parking here. If you're lucky if you might snag one of the few spots up front. If you want to play it safe, I would recommend an Uber or Lyft. Veggie Banh Mih Hot Dog: I really appreciated that there were vegetarian bar food options available here. I got hungry as the night went on and opted for the veggie banh mih dog. I was a bit disappointed in my choice. The veggie dog felt a bit bland and while the flavors of the sriracha mayo and pickled radish were nice, the hot dog didn't wow me unfortunately. However, they have many fun hot dog flavors on their menu that I'd be willing to go back and try! If you're looking for a place to go over the weekend with some friends, Lucky's is a nice local bar in town to come hang out at!
