    After hearing a lot about this chain from our friend from Georgia, we had to give this a go on our road trip. This was my first time to a Cook Out and I will certainly be back. The cashier Orlando was super friendly, patient and helpful. He was checking on guests, greeting everyone who came in and even clearing tables. He asked us where we from and said safe travels on our exit. In terms of the food, there was a wide variety on the menu and the sides options were very good from the traditional sides to chicken nuggets, corn dogs, cheese bites, hush puppies and more. We went for a burger with cheese bites and hush puppies and 2 corn dogs with fries. The food was out quickly and tasted great. I'd love to explore the food menu more next time. The milkshake menu was vast and that's a reason enough to go back! So many fun flavours and things to try. I had Choc Chip Cheesecake and my girlfriend had Peanut Butter Fudge, both we're fantastic, very thick shakes which is what we love! Once again thanks to Orlando, fast food workers see a lot of people in a day so thanks for your great energy and conversation!

    My first time at Cook Out ever and the guy working the counter was SO patient! He was awesome! I got the hamburger with everything on it with fries & onion rings. YUM! The burger was sauced and the toppings were falling off! 10/10!! The fries are pretty basic but salted PERFECTLY and the onion rings were good too! Their ranch is also good! Their drink sizes are HUGE! I got a medium and probably won't be able to finish it haha! The only thing that I didn't like was that you had to ask for all of the sauces, even ketchup! The restaurant and bathroom were clean!

    We were driving back from Atlanta and I was getting hungry for lunch. I had never tried Cook Out before, so we decided to stop and hit the most southern store in Valdosta. It has potential, but really fell short. We walked in and ordered from the counter. The girl that helped us was very nice. I went with a triple patty cheddar style add pickles. My girlfriend got a chicken sandwich with onion rings. I decided to have a chocolate malt while she had a peanut butter cup shake. After ordering, we decided to grab a seat. Most of the tables were dirty close to the door, and the tables that were clean had employees sleeping in the booths or playing on their phone. They seemed annoyed that customers wanted to sit and eat their food. Some moved as it got more busy. We found a table that wasn't too dirty and our food came up quickly. The food looked ok, nothing special. My burger bun was half stale and hard as a rock. Half was soft. The patty flavor and overall flavor of the burger was quite tasty. With the addition of cook out sauce, it was perfect. The chicken sandwich was pretty mediocre. The patty was half the size of the bun, mostly bread. Onion rings were adequate. Both shakes were really tasty. Overall, our experience left a bit to be desired. It was our first time trying Cook Out and we will likely try again, but at a different location.

    Stopping at a Cook Out on a road trip is a must for me! This Cook Out had such a friendly stay to take orders and the food came out hot and fresh. Their hush puppies are some of my favorites and are always one of the two sides that I pick when I got a tray. I love that you can get a milkshake as your drink with a meal and I always get a chocolate shake! Until my next road trip Cook Out!

    5 stars for excellent customer service, delicious food, and great prices! I've heard great things about Cook Out, so glad I finally got to try! The staff here are sooooo nice!! We took a look at the menus which can be slightly overwhelming (just because there's lots of options) and decided the trays were best. I got a chicken tender tray with hush puppies and chicken quesadilla as my sides and a mint chocolate chip shake as my drink. Everything was so delicious! The portions are generous and so yum! Service was really quick! My first visit but definitely looking forward to coming again!

    Very busy place! Lots of choices so get prepared before you go with what you want. The food here to me tastes exactly like the name implies; you are at a cookout and someone is slinging food from a grill. I thought everthing we had was really good. We got one of the combo's and got 2 hotdogs, cheese curds, fries and then a burger. We flavor of the franks on the dogs were really good. Dressed one with cheese and bacon, yum! The other with no bean chili and slaw. Another really good dog. Double burger old west style. Really good. A little smaller than expected but perfect for the price. Fries seasoning was pretty tasty. A solid burger spot and a really good price. Just make sure to review the menu before you go especially if you are hungry or you will be standing there for a long time.

    The food is good as always, but I sat in the drive thru for 30mins. Need a better system or new management.

    If you have not had Cook Out, you're missing out. Value for the money 10/10. Home run on the basics, burger, fries and a milk shake.

    I can't say enough great things about Big Nick's! Our softball team from the Tampa area stopped in…read morewith a group of 25 parents and players, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations. From my first phone call with Mia to the moment we walked out the door, the service was exceptional. Managing a large group of hungry, hot, and thirsty athletes and parents isn't easy, but Mia handled it effortlessly. She stayed on top of everything with a smile and made sure no one was waiting for food, drinks, or anything else. She truly made our experience memorable. The food was just as impressive! I ordered the pork nachos, and they were incredible. My husband loved the ribs and mac & cheese. Around the table, the wings and grits were also huge favorites--but honestly, everyone raved about their meals. Not a single complaint from anyone in our group! The restaurant itself was spacious without being overly loud, making it easy for our large group to enjoy our meal together. Even the restrooms were spotless, and the sparkly countertops were such a fun touch. If you're traveling with a large group, definitely call ahead--and if you can, ask for Mia. She went above and beyond, and I can confidently say you won't be disappointed. We can't wait to come back!

From the…read moremoment we walked in to be greeted and they said "welcome to the family," to the server talking through the menu to help us decide, we had fantastic service. The atmosphere was upbeat with music playing and you could smell the bbq throughout the restaurant. I just knew the food would be good and let me tell you!! Every bite was delish. We agreed it was one of the overall best meals we have had in a long time (and we eat out at many different places often). Try the soul rolls..and the ribs, pork chops...and ALL of it! We will definitely be back!

    Favorite Road Trip Stop on our way to Atlanta from Florida…read more Over the years the inside has become ran down and there's a smell of like old furniture mixed with pasta scents; it is unpleasant. The service is always great. I have never been rushed through ordering. For Drive-thru Italian they are on to something. Spaghetti, Lasagna, Meatballs...all to-go, freshly made and hot. My favorite is the breadsticks they are soft and garlicky. Yummmy!

    Fazoli's is the best fast food choice with quality fresh pasta! Fabulous restaurant with the best…read morebuttery garlic bread sticks that are complimentary with your meal! The food is always piping hot pasta and served fast! My lunch was delicious and it was a $7.99 special that comes with a drink and their famous buttery garlic bread sticks. I chose the Alfredo and spaghetti. Both were delicious and satisfying. Rarely, I order dessert but I never pass up the Fazoli's strawberry icee. It is so refreshing with tasty real strawberries! They actually partner with The Cheesecake Factory and serve cheesecake. So that should tell you this place has high standards! I noticed that they even have catering services. Clean restaurant with a friendly staff that will strike up a conversation that makes you feel welcomed! You order a meal at the counter and they will bring the meal to your table. I always appreciate that! Fazoli's is my favorite road trip destination, when traveling. This location is Valdosta, perfect for lunch on our way home from Florida! There aren't many locations in GA and zero near my home. So when you see a billboard advertisement swing by and give Fazoli's a try!
