    Inside the cleanest fast food restaurant in TALLAHASSEE!
    Mark P.

    We use to drive to the Cook Outs in North Carolina on the way to the mountains. Now they are in Tallahassee it's so rewarding. I usually do the drive thru but today I sat inside with my bride. The staff was cleaning non stop. The place is spotless and the food is consistent in taste. No, it's not a higher price burger but it's a Saturday after a hard day working in the yard good. I'm happy they are here!

    Strawberry Cheesecake Milkshake

    The milkshake is a highlight, particularly the strawberry cheesecake flavor, which was notably rich and enjoyable. While the burger was satisfactory, I plan to return to explore more of the menu once the initial rush subsides. I recommend visiting shortly after opening for the optimal experience.

    An old favorite just made its way to Tallahassee! I've been missing and craving Cook Out ever since I moved to Florida, so I couldn't wait to check out the new spot. I've already been twice since they opened, and both visits have been solid. I usually order the grilled chicken sandwich (regular chicken tray), but I was surprised to see they're serving crinkle-cut fries here. Must be a Florida twist, because that's definitely different from the NC locations I'm used to. Aside from that change, the food tastes just as I remember, and the milkshakes are still thick--something I was a little worried about but happy to see they kept consistent. Because of the location, I'm glad they had plenty of staff outside directing traffic, and the team was quick with getting orders out. The inside is nice, but there isn't much seating, so plan your visit accordingly. When it's busy, it's definitely not ideal to park on-site. Overall, great to have Cook Out in Tallahassee--feels like a taste of home.

    This place is hyped up for no reason. The fries are very hard, and unseasoned. Coleslaw was BAD. Burger was ultra greasy and nasty.

    Cheap food, cheap quality. You pay for what you get, can't complain but can't applaud.

    My dining companion and I visited El Rincón Latino Colombian Restaurant on recent Friday night…read more Since the universities have dismissed for summer break, we thought this would be a fine time to try this restaurant again. A restaurant was fairly empty when we arrived. We went inside, but let the server know we were gonna sit outside. Several minutes passed and menus were delivered. It took several more minutes for the server to return and take our order. I have to say the food is worth the price of admission! We ordered enough options so that we could take home leftovers for the next day's lunch. We ordered the chorizo tacos, served, and softshell flour tortillas. They must've been baked slightly because they had a little bit of structure to them. There is ample chorizo in each taco. Delicious! We also ordered an arepa, empanadas, tostones, and yuca fries. Everything was delicious, plated individually, and tasted wonderful. My question the reason we don't visit this restaurant more often. We were glad to visit and we plan to return!

    (Deslice había abajo para español) Unfortunately, this…read morerestaurant was a big disappointment. The food is extremely overpriced for both the quality and the portion sizes. The tostones were not fresh and were obviously previously frozen. The rice was overcooked, and the chicharrones were overcooked to the point of being almost burned, with a rancid flavor that has nothing to do with authentic Colombian chicharrón. Additionally, the chicharrón pieces were neither large nor wide, as traditional Colombian chicharrón should be. The chorizo in the bandeja paisa tasted like a strange mix between Colombian and Mexican chorizo, which simply does not belong in a traditional bandeja paisa. Honestly, it felt more like a "bandeja paisa junior." The egg was fried without asking for cooking preference, which was disappointing. The grilled chicken with onions was not grilled at all--it was a very thin chicken breast cooked on a flat top with excessive oil. The beans had excellent flavor, but they were served cold, which is unacceptable. The empanadas were delicious, but again, way overpriced. Overall, the prices are unjustifiably high for what you get. I do not recommend this place, and I definitely will not be returning. -- Lamentablemente, nuestra experiencia en este restaurante fue muy decepcionante. La comida es demasiado cara para la calidad y la cantidad que ofrecen. Los tostones no estaban frescos, claramente eran previamente congelados. El arroz estaba pasado de cocción, y los chicharrones estaban sobrecocinados, casi quemados, con un sabor rancio que nada tiene que ver con el verdadero chicharrón colombiano. Además, los chicharrones no eran grandes ni anchos, como suele ser el chicharrón colombiano auténtico. El chorizo de la bandeja paisa tenía una mezcla de sabor entre chorizo colombiano y mexicano que no encaja para nada en una bandeja paisa tradicional; en realidad, deberían llamarla "bandeja paisa junior." El huevo fue frito sin preguntar la preferencia de cocción, lo cual fue decepcionante. El pollo al grill con cebolla no era al grill; era una pechuga muy fina hecha a la plancha y con bastante aceite. Los frijoles tenían muy buen sabor, pero llegaron fríos, algo totalmente inaceptable. Las empanadas estaban deliciosas, pero igualmente excesivamente caras. En resumen, los precios son injustificables para la calidad y cantidad ofrecidas. No lo recomiendo y no volveré.

    Totally unique vibe. Very bohemian crowd…read more Great Burgers! Particularly the chicken burger. Very Unique style, totally has its own thing going with the flavor. The best I can describe it, is that it has a retro-craft feel. I really dig it. Food comes out quick and is excellent. Bar tender and staff is friendly and chill. You can taste the cooking oil is kept clean, and is changed often by the fries and the smell. You can taste the food is made to order with real food. They also have cool events all the time. Like a poker night, and trivia night. I think the poker nights are Tuesday and Thursday at 6pm and 8pm. It's a little hard to find, tucked behind another building, just off the main road. Carful parking the little lot in the back, they have a massive pot-hole thing... just go real slow. Always seem to meet the most interesting people there. Nelson's Burger Bar is the "misfit island of toys" of the burger scene. Infact "scene" is exactly the right word to describe it. This place is a total trip. Next time your craving a beer and good burger, get yourself over here.

    On our way out of Tallahassee, my husband was craving a burger. I like burgers too, but don't crave…read morethem like my husband... but let me tell you- this was a burger not to miss! We sat at the bar- they had indoor and outdoor as well, but the bar was good. Our server was amazing- funny & knowledgeable about the menu- loved him. My husband ordered the Carolina dog and the Nelson burger and he loved them both. I loved my Nelson burger as well. It was big, but it was tasty and seemed like we had just cooked it on our grill outdoors. It was a nice, clean, bright space, and the food was delicious. We will definitely go back if we are in the area - craving a burger, hotdog, or sandwich - all of the sides/extras looked amazing as well. We will have to try those next time.
