    Cook's Place is a Columbus institution. There are other items on the menu, but you come here for hot dogs, including the locally famous scrambled dog. I prefer the chili dog, and the fries are on point. Service is fast and friendly, even during the busy lunch rush. The restaurant is decked out in a 50s vibe, grease your hair and bring the Bobby socks and poodle skirt for the full experience.

    Cook's is legend in Columbus with the best menu of Chili dogs, Scramble dogs, burgers, Chicken salad sandwiches. I especially love a scramble dog with cheese and slaw. There's something about that creamy slaw when it hits your tongue with the chili. (which is the best chili I ever had on a hotdog.) I highly recommend this restaurant.

    I'm giving two stars because the customer service was on point and I felt for the workers. The customer in front of us was not too happy during our visit and I did feel for the workers as to how she acted. Now onto the food. My kiddos have asked to try this place for months. We finally did and it's a no. The hotdogs are just a boiled and flavorless dogs. The buns are so thin and with the hotdog hot they just fall through the bottom. At first sight they look delicious, but we were all left less than impressed. My kids didn't even finish their hotdogs. The location is so convenient, but the food is less than stellar. A been there and done that location.

    I have had their scramble dog on two different occasions. 2 dogs, chili, onions, mustard, pickles and some oyster crackers on a single bun. Chili is really tasty and tender. All the tastes come together and compliment a high quality dog.

    Old fashioned hotdogs and hamburgers. Always good and always delicious. Always friendly. I meet friends from Baker high school quite often.

    Chilli is exceptional the small talk while ordering your dog behind the counter is priceless.

    Area tradition for decades. More than just hotdogs. Pretty good steak sandwiches too. Columbus original scrambled dog is my go to order.

    The location on Airport Thruway is basically hot dogs only. No burgers. Great service and good chili dog.

    Good place for a quick meal at a very reasonable price. Two hotdogs fully loaded for $6 with a drink and chips can't be beat.
