    Better rating these times around. The food is still the same cookout taste and menu as years past, which is good and consistent (especially their bbq sandwich, which I find very underrated for a fast food location). The past few times, the visits were pleasant and never felt rushed putting in my order while inside and a line growing. Inside itself is fairly clean for the most part; good amount of seats inside and out. Always gave me more than enough sauce when I've asked.

    I had to try Cookout which is a Greensboro staple. The food was really inexpensive, which is a plus, especially in an area that has a lot of college students. The food was nothing to write home about; however the milkshakes are really good.

    I wanted a mint chocolate chip milkshake and went into the cookout and ordered two. I got the drinks and they both looked like a chocolate milkshake. I asked them about it but they said that if I mixed it I would see the green??? I went out tasted the shake and boom its chocolate. I go back inside and tell then its just a chocolate shake (cause u know mint chocolate chip is green and got chocolate chips in it) and they take it back and fix it for me. Turns out after 5 more minutes of waiting they bring me back the same drinks with some green syrup on top...... still 0 chocolate chips, still same chocolate milkshake.... I just wanted my mint chocolate chip milkshake. Rip

    Really?

    Food good, nothing special, just like any other cookout. On the other hand...ordered a milkshake and clearly the cup busted before leaving the store and they thought a receipt sticker would do.

    Been coming here for years. This one happens to be near my new house. So glad they have the "Walking taco". Sometimes you come to a cookout and they don't have it. Got a typical Carolina burger with the Cajun fries and cheese bites. Delicious as always. I tend to come earlier so they aren't precook if burgers. Shake was a chocolate with chocolate chips and cheesecake. Yeah I know.... It's all diet food. Everything was great and the cashier was super friendly.

    I order a chicken bacon ranch wrap with no ranch add barbecue. There's no chicken, just chicken lettuce and barbecue sauce. They were polite when I was there but I didn't notice till returning to work with no time to make it right. Called and got no answer.....No chicken is devious work.

    Not the cheesecake in my cheesecake milkshake.

    This is the closest cookout to me, but it might be worth a drive to avoid it the future. Last time I went there was a small piece of plastic in my milkshake, but I took it in stride. Accidents happen. Today there's a whole piece of... something. It's unacceptable.

    As someone who considers themselves kind of an authority on the humble hot dog (it's a taco by the…read moreway, not a sandwich), it's kind of surprising it took me this long to visit this Greensboro local staple on A&T's campus. Well, I happened to be out and about while a lot of people weren't just after the heavy snowstorm on that Monday, and happened to be in the area. Hot Dogs sounded great, so I pulled in. One thing you definitely cannot argue with is the price, especially on a Monday and Wednesday, where they feature all hot dogs for $1.25. A sum that is safe to say, ultra-rare, in this day and age. Going along with that, this place is pretty humble, as you might expect. Could use a little TLC, but of course that also comes with costs. Ultimately, if your hot dog slaps, you could just be serving off a plastic folding table for all I care. I ordered two Aggie dogs, side of onion rings, large half sweet half unsweet tea. One of the foibles of this place is that it is very hard to hear the person on the other end of the drive-thru speaker. But he eventually repeated back to me my correct order. Drove around and paid, then pulled up to the window where they give you your food. I'm not sure what went wrong here, but even though I was the only person there, I got someone else's order. Didn't realize that until I drove away, but luckily, I didn't go far. Realized it when I put my straw in and took a sip of Coke, not tea. Kind of wish I had kept the Coke. I did not enjoy the tea. It had a strange flavor. Other than the tea, now that I had the correct order... again, for the price, it was pretty strong. Messy hot dogs on soft buns, but tasty indeed. The Aggie dogs are basically your classic all-the-way southern dog with chili, slaw, mustard, onion. I got the beef hot dogs (they also offer turkey), great flavor on the frank, chili and slaw perfectly good. I could have downed 4 of these easy, and maybe next time I will at that price and forego any sides. The onion rings were actually nice though, very crispy, tasty. Anyhow, I bet you cannot beat this for cheap hot dogs anywhere in town, if not for the chaos on getting my correct order (and whatever happened with the tea) I would have surely given this a 5 on value and taste for said value.

It's been…read moremany years, since I ate at Fat Dogs, actually, it was so long ago, they were still in their previous location. I didn't have fond memories of my previous order, but this time around left a much different impression. My friend and I arrived around 5:45, and were welcomed in by the bartender. They told us to could sit anywhere where wanted, and they brought us menus once we found our seats. They've got plenty of tvs on the walls to catch any and all games at the same time. The menu offer s a great variety of burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, flat breads and salads. They also have a massive selection of bottled/canned beers, along with 16 different beers on tap. It took me a bit to make a decision, but something drew me to the meatloaf sandwich, and I have no regrets. It was fantastic, full of flavor, with a fantastic provolone cheese pull. I'm actually trying to figure out when I can go back and get another, sooner than later! For my side, i got tater tots, which they served with home made ranch. everything was fantastic, and great portions! Great visit, friendly staff, huge drink selection and many tasty food options. Go check this spot out...i know I'll be back again soon!

The burgers looked great too. The menu has enough interesting options that I could see myself coming back several times if I lived nearby. Definitely worth the wait for a great sandwich.

Today I stopped in for a to go order, but next time I plan on enjoying the patio with my pup Ziggy and try one of their burgers. I ordered the Madison Avenue which is a croissant smeared with honey walnut cream cheese, smoked turkey, and granny smith apples. My side was slaw and I also ordered fries with a side of ranch. Upon walking in the place appeared clean, the customer service, not the best. But maybe someone was having a bad day, I get it. I'm so glad I did check my bag before I left because they did not give me ranch or plasticware, man I would have missed out on some amazing ranch. The young man gave me three ranches which I'm so disappointed I only grabbed one. Unfortunately I didn't get the best pictures but the food tasted great. The fries were thick cut (probably frozen) and let me tell you, I would just come back for the ranch! They have my favorite restaurant ranch. The slaw was really tasty - good ole southern sweet mayonnaise slaw, not too vinegary. The sandwich, not bad, good combo of toppings, they paired well together. I' ll be back. Anyone want to go for a patio lunch? Ciao for now
