    "Went in for a chili dog, left with a live-action soap opera at the drive-thru." At 1:58 AM, I brought an elderly couple to Cook Out for a simple chili hotdog combo. Instead, we stumbled into what felt like an episode of 'Kitchen Nightmares: After Dark.' The cashier greeted us with all the charm of a tax audit, and before we could even explain the order, two more employees joined in like a tag-team roast battle. My passenger was spoken to with open hostility, I got called a name I can't repeat in polite company, and the whole thing was less "fast food" and more "fast feud." Management -- your hiring process needs some serious quality control, and your dress code? Let's just say edges should not be moonlighting as eyebrows. Cook Out: now serving drama hotter than the grill.

    Cheesy!

    I don't come to cookout for the food, just for the shakes. The Oreo and snickers shake to be exact but my friend swears by the white cheddar bites. So I decided to order the white cheddar bites along with a shake and y'all they were SO GOOD! Cheesy, gooey goodness! Try them out next time you go but make sure you eat them while they are hot because they are not good cold.

    Normally I have a great experience here.. I visit often! Food is always hot, fresh, and they always are fast! Service is always fast and accurate.

    Usually a pleasant visit to Cookout Snellville, but this visit was a bit uncharacteristic and I hope it isn't the new normal. The line was wrapped around the building (more than usual during a peak time) and it looked like some employees were finishing their shifts. We waited a good 10-15 minutes before we finally made it to the intercom (really need to upgrade this thing - too much background noise) to make our order. We ordered three cookout trays with shakes versus drinks. We had to yell and repeat our order, but we were finally able to proceed to pickup window. Once we get to the pickup window, the lady takes our payment and another proceeds to hand us the wrong shake (thank goodness they call out what it is when handing it out). Longer story short, they misheard our shake orders and made us pull to a spot at the front of the restaurant (never been through this at Cookout). Once we waited about 5 minutes, the young lady from the drive thru brought our trays and shakes to the car. And thank goodness...all three trays were correct! We checked before pulling off. Short notes: Fix the intercom Manage shifts better (or train on off peak times) Get a tad bit faster

    Barley lettuce burger

    For a person that doesn't really eat burgers that much I was expecting a good lettuce burger it's not the hard to make you just get lettuce you get the burger and you put everything else on it now I'm not sure why I got this little sliver of lettuce, but it really changed the whole view of what I was craving. Y'all know y'all are wrong for that. How am I supposed to eat it with it having 25% lettuce..

Full review: Don't let the decrepit and rundown look of the plaza fool you. It's too bad Burger World is located in somewhat of a rundown area, and i almost turned around when Google Maps directed me to a nearby shop instead of right in front of the restaurant. However, the customer service is friendly and the burgers are quite good! Greeted by a guy who seemed like the owner, i was pleased with his immediate description that the burgers are grilled fresh, never frozen, and that the fries are hand-cut. My order consisted of two cheeseburger combos (incl. small fries and a small drink) and two bbq burgers, for a total of about $30. Not a bad price for a meal for 4, but the fries were thin, oily, and just okay. The burgers really stand out with fresh ingredients, and it's a shame the fries aren't more robust @ that price point. Besides the fries, this biz could improve on the following: - having a more precise address on Google Maps w/ better signage - Employees who wear masks (esp in these times as the flu and Covid are rampant) - Thicker fries, maybe crinkle cut - Switching from styrofoam containers to paper-based ones (styrofoam is unhealthy & doesn't do these great burgers justice) - An overall cleaner presentation (the counter near the cash register could have been cleaner) - A sturdier carrier for drinks - my two small drinks spilled on the way home. Overall: Definitely recommend. The bbq and cheeseburgers were sooo tasty. Maybe skip the fries and drinks.

The staff was nice and the establishment was clean. At the time we went it was not a lot of people there but they slowly started coming in. Ordered some wings and fries and a 5 pc tender dinner. They both were good. I did like the fact that they sell whole wings. Even though they were small they were enjoyable. There was a lot of talk about the restaurant across the street (JJ's) I believe that is Fingez new competition. The talk was mostly from an employee, I think he was not happy with them moving over to their location. Maybe at some point I will visit them only because the employee was not happy with them. Based on what he was saying it was like they did not care about the customers and Fingerz does care about their customers. So I guess in time we will see. I think the pricing was the normal charge for meals like that. The chicken tenders were good, not to crunchy, not too much seasonings just right actually. The dipping sauce was ok too. They have lots of choices for the dipping sauces so I did like the choices. Generally speaking the food and service was ok but it is not a place I would run to for a meal. If I am in the area and in the mood for some chicken I might stop by.

I told her it's freezing and she agreed but didn't say why there was no heat, I proceeded to place the order bc I was on limited time. As I stated earlier I ordered the grilled chicken spinach sandwich with fries. It was delicious as always. It comes with spinach, cheese, smoked bacon, and tomatoes. Bread is fresh. Fries were popping hot There were 6 other guests there. 2 were seated at the bar. So it wasn't busy considering it was lunchtime. I did not have dessert. Had a Coke instead Parking is shared with other businesses in the plaza but there is additional parking in the rear. If you're looking for good food specifically Taverns, this is a good spot. They also have a location in Cumming.

From the moment my daughter her friend and I walked in, we were treated like we were a burden instead of paying customers. The attitudes from the employees were rude, cold, and completely unwelcoming. Nobody seemed happy to help, and the entire atmosphere felt miserable. After waiting 10-15 minutes for our food to be "freshly cooked," I expected at least hot food. Instead, I was handed a turkey burger that was barely lukewarm and french fries that were cold, limp, and already wrinkling like they had been sitting forever. To make it worse, the fries looked like nothing but the tiny leftover scraps from the bottom of the potato bag. It honestly felt like they just threw together whatever they didn't want to serve anyone else. We sent the fries back, and when they brought them out again, they were only slightly warmer than before -- still not hot like fries should be straight out of the fryer. What's even crazier is that the manager brought the food back to the table and STILL never apologized. No concern, no accountability, nothing. That alone says everything about the customer service at this place. Whatever happened to quality food and decent customer service? Customers are paying hard-earned money and deserve hot food and respectful treatment -- not cold leftovers, terrible attitudes, and management that acts like it doesn't care. Extremely disappointing experience, and I will definitely think twice before ever coming back.

The guy working the register is not really helpful and I think it may be because he doesn't speak english that well and tries to hide it. I asked if my bun could be toasted well and if the burger can be cut in half and he didn't add anything on the register, then when I stared at him waiting for him to add it, he dismissively turned to the cook and said "bun". When I got the burger, the bun wasn't really toasted and it wasn't cut in half, so I sent it back. The cook was very nice about it and brought it back out with no issues. The burger was good, but all of the food was really greasy. While eating the burger, grease began to drip down my hand and the fries/onion rings still looked wet. I ate this for dinner and woke up with the absolute worst headache that lingered for 3 days... Also, just a heads up that it is a la carte, so the drink and sides were an additional cost. The impossible was an upcharge, they don't sell small drinks, then the fronion rings all came to be about $20, which was pretty expensive.
