We arrived in Jackson late at night and were absolutely starving. We decided to give Cook Out a try and had a great experience. The menu can was a little intimidating because there are so many combinations to try. I got a burger with onion rings and cole slaw. Everything was cooked perfectly and pricing is fair. The only downside is the dining area closes early and it was hard to order through the drive thru because the speaker was kind of broken. read more

Although this seems to be a popular restaurant, I wasn't impressed with the service. The speaker was difficult to hear through. I had to repeat my order several times. I ordered the cheddar burger, onion rings, a banana pudding shake. The woman taking the order said she was making it a combo. To save me money, I guess. At the window, the woman looked angry and wasn't very pleasant. When I got home, I had a cheddar burger, fries, 4 small onion rings and no banana pudding shake. I had a soft drink instead. They need to fix the speaker or take orders at the window. A smile and a thank you would have been nice. read more

Mmm!! Junk food? Yep! Cheap? Yep! Quick? Yep! I love coming here for the milkshakes. Drive thru is open late, so get some food to avoid a hangover tomorrow! read more

I have been a longtime fan of Cookout, but had not been to one in awhile. I was in Jackson, Mississippi on business and grabbed a small chili cheeseburger and a hot dog with chili, coleslaw and onions and was disappointed with both. I don't know if it was this particular location or if the company is losing quality control as they grow. The small burger, which was about three dollars, was tiny. It was almost as if there was no burger in there at all. The hot dog should have finely chopped onions, but instead got thick slices. The young man at the takeout window was friendly enough and from the outside, the location looked inviting enough (I only drove through the takeout aisle, so I cannot judge the ambiance of the place). Overall, I was not satisfied with the quality of my food. I guess I will give it three stars (and that is being kind). read more

Cook Out - Hot dog. Onions should be diced - A hot dog topped with sliced onions and coleslaw is presented in a black plastic takeout container. The container is being held by a person inside a vehicle, with a Cadillac emblem visible on the dashboard in the background. The hot dog bun appears soft, and the toppings are fresh and generously applied. - Fast Food Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

What did Trevor not understand when I ordered "NO ONION "? Why can't this place get a single order correct?

Title: Cook Out - A Culinary Rollercoaster! (2 Stars) Ah, Cook Out, where my taste buds went to experience the highs and lows of fast food! It was like a reality show challenge: "Survivor: Fast Food Edition." Let me break down my gastronomic adventure for you. First off, the chicken nuggets and shakes were the shining stars of this culinary circus. Seriously, these nuggets were like tiny golden nuggets of joy! I could have built a whole kingdom with those little crispy delights. And the shakes? Well, if you haven't had a shake from Cook Out, have you even lived? They're thick enough to double as a milkshake brick. Just don't try to drink them through a straw; you might need a construction crew to get that thing moving! Now, let's talk about the Cheerwine float. It was like a refreshing hug from a soda fountain! I could drink those all day, but I might need to hire a personal float assistant to keep me from drowning in it. But then we hit the culinary equivalent of a flat tire: the walking taco and cheese fries. I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I got more trash than treasure. The walking taco was less "walk" and more "stumble"--like it had already been on a long journey through the depths of disappointment. And the cheese fries? Calling them trash is an insult to garbage everywhere. I'm pretty sure even the cheese was having an identity crisis, like, "Am I nacho cheese? Am I a sad imitation of a cheese sauce? Help!" Now, let's discuss the BLT. It was the culinary equivalent of a whisper in a rock concert--lame as hell! I took one bite and thought, "Is this a sandwich or a sad piece of lettuce on a slice of bread?" If I wanted that kind of disappointment, I'd have just gone home and made a soggy sandwich myself! On the plus side, the service was quicker than my hopes of enjoying a full meal! They must have a secret recipe for speed, because I barely had time to finish scrolling through my phone before my order was ready. Kudos to the staff for that! In conclusion, Cook Out is a mixed bag of deliciousness and disaster. If you go, stick to the nuggets, shakes, and that glorious Cheerwine float. Just steer clear of the walking taco and cheese fries unless you want to add some excitement to your life by tasting the unexpected depths of culinary despair. Bon appétit! read more

Good, I was hungry so this was one of the only places open on New Year's Day. The girl at the counter was patient with us when ordering, she answered all of our questions. Good for a quick and affordable meal. read more

Cook Out - Double burger, onion rings and cheese bites. - Fast Food Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

We stopped at Cook Out when we were traveling. Service was pretty quick, and the food was good. The burgers have that grilled flavor, and the cheese curds are a great option for a side. Best of all? The price! This is some affordable fast food, and that's hard to find in the current economy. When we're passing through Jackson again, we'll come back! read more

So I tried this place out and was looking forward to a grilled burger... which flavor wise it was good... but the patties were so small that technically two side by side were still small enough to cover the bun. This supposedly is their "Big Double" but I've just renamed it the Big Let Down. It's $2.99 so if the bun was smaller a the name was different, I'd say the price is right. I was so let down though it's 1 star. read more

Cook Out - The Big Double is a Big Let Down - Fast Food Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

Worst food I've had in a long long time. Hit a chili cheese burger n fries. Chili had a whang to it and the fries were dusted in sone kinda nasty seasoning. Sure the guy at the counter was new but they gave me the wrong order to. Stay away from this nasty food read more

This was new to me as we did not grow up with this in Jackson. But it's nice that it's here now. I really appreciate the 2 sides that are included. I just wish there was a non fried side available like a salad m. But I always get full off the sides first and then eat the burger later & it's still good! I really like the cheese curds too! Definitely wish they had some sweet potato fries tho! read more

Cook Out - Jr burger tray: bacon cheeseburger, Cajun fries, cheese curds and a drink - Fast Food Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

I was in town for a conference. This place makes Old fashioned hamburgers. I got a regular size hamburger. I asked for everything that comes on it EXCEPT cheese. Well, they put cheese on it anyway. It's as if people can't comprehend not putting cheese on a burger. Other than that, it was the best tasting hamburger I've had in many years. I'd go back tomorrow if I lived in the area. read more

It's a cheap greasy burger and it's fabulous! Make sure to get a side of onion rings. And for heaven's sake, order a milkshake! They've clearly got your flavor! A fun, quick guilty pleasure while in Jackson. read more

Cook Out - Milkshakes! - Fast Food Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

Typical greasy food, worst service ever. We went through the drive-thru and ordered our food. Then, after picking it up from the window, we realized several of our items were missing. We went back through the drive-thru and they assured us it would be just a minute to come back through the drive-thru and receive our item. We waited behind another car for 20 minutes before getting our item. What we had was tasty however the service was so bad we will never be back. read more

Cook Out - We came back through the drive thru for a forgotten item (they left out of the bag) and waited 20 mins. We left before getting it. - Fast Food Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

huge fan of the hush puppies from here. i came on a lunch break to get a quick meal. the cashier ladies were sweet & patient with me as i tried to maneuver through the menu. it can be a bit hard to follow what to get but i eventually figured it out. i ordered the 3 chicken strips with fries. nothing special but did my stomach some justice! i will keep this place in mind when i am in need of a quick fix. i only spent $5! read more

Cook Out - chicken strips n fries - Fast Food Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

I am from California. I was in Jackson Mississippi on work. Let me say this, this city closes up on Sunday. I couldn't find a restaurant on a Sunday to Save my life. Every restaurant we went to was closed. What is the deal Jackson? My co-worker said the heck with it, let's Eat fast food since that was the only spots open. As we were driving to a different burger joint. We Passed by cook out. We decided to try it. I ordered a burger made the way I want, onion rings, fries and a soda for 6 bucks And change. That is super cheap. Why can't we have a place like this in California? The food came out fast. I was really impressed with my food. Very good burger. The fries and onion rings were Also great. I totally recommend this place. One issue I did see though, it was a bit dirty. A lot of the tables were not cleaned. Other than that, a great experience. read more

Cook Out - All this for 6 bucks and change. - Fast Food Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

Decent burger for the price! I did the build your own burger and not one of the specialty burgers so, maybe those are outstanding in all fairness! read more

Great burgers, fries, fried okra, & some of the BEST onion rings we've ever had. The price of the meal was affordable. Service is OUTSTANDING. The young ladies were very polite and helpful. The restaurant was very clean, unlike a lot of other fast food restaurants read more

Cook Out - Clean restaurant with AWESOME service!!! - Fast Food Near Me - Jackson, Mississippi

First. This was a great value. My family of 5 ate for under $25. Everyone left full and content. The Cajun chicken sandwich and cookout sauce were the highlights of the lunch. Everything else was just okay. The burger was small. read more

Surprisingly burgers were great!! Nicely grilled, ooey gooey cheese, reminds me of in-n-out fast food burger. Your sides can literally be another main entrée or fries We got two different quesadillas as a side. Service was good and quick. Quesadillas were like the small cheap ones at Taco Bell, we'll probably get a different side next time. read more

Majorly Yummy! This fast food restaurant seems to be a favorite of Southerners. However, this location just opened. I drove up and there were several folks inside, so I opted for the drive thru. The menu board caused a bit of confusion initially. Maybe it was merely because I wasn't familiar with the menu. There are lots of choices to satisfy everyone. They have char-grilled hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, quesadillas, hot dogs, chicken strips, and barbeque sandwiches. The menu keeps going with combos that come with a choice of two sides; and there are tens of milkshake choices to choose from. I had heard so much about the scrumptious food that I ordered two different sandwiches to try. The barbeque sandwich was amazing, and so was the "Cook Out style" burger, which has an interestingly delicious combination of chili, cole slaw, mustard, onions and cheese. It was mouthwatering! The prices are very economical; and the drive thru service was fast. Cook Out stays open til 3am, which is fabulous for night owls. read more

Before I say anything, the food here is great. The problem I have is with the employees. I usually go around 9-12pm and I consistently get the worst service. Also sometimes they make up rules about cookout sauce that which infuriates me. The rule is that you get one cookout sauce per tray in an order, but there seems to be some disconnect sometimes as I have been told that you have to pay extra for it and then I've been told that you only get it when you get a tray that comes with chicken nuggets or tenders. There just needs to be some employee changes. That being said I will continue to go there because I love the food but the service is the absolute worst I've ever experience. read more

At the rate Burger King is going bcuz there employees don't pay attention, they gone end up with some hefty law suits die to contamination of food, and food allergies. When I order burgers from them or any sandwiches if I ask for no pickles or no onions it's bcuz who I'm buying it for can't have that on there but one of these days someone eats a sandwich with certain things they asked to not be on there it's gone be hell!!!!!And for the record I hope someone with common sense who works for the company explains to the food preps and cooks if any certain food goes on a sandwich and thenu take it off it can still cause allergic reaction. I'm definitely gone see if I'm gone be the lucky one, hell I need some money!!!!! read more

This is a typical fast food restaurant. The service was FRIENDLY and quick! The menu items were plentiful and typically priced for a fast food restaurant. But... First there is not a kids mea! So I has to order the small tray and two sides and medium/large drink. Too much food for a toddler but that was the cheapest thing to order for a smaller burger. I don't know why a fast food restaurant doesn't have a children's meal but moving on. Second - the food was typical burger, fries, and we had the chicken nuggets and cheddar rounds in our side options. The Burger taste like a whopper, it's got the Char-grilled flavor. The fries were thick cut and salted well (not too much) but bland. They didn't taste like real potatoes but those cheap potato and starch mashed fries you buy on sale at a discount grocery. The cheddar rounds didn't have a sharp cheddar kick so I assume it's made with some sort of mild cheddar blend. The chicken nuggets were typical nuggets, same as every other typical chicken nugget. Third - i asked for light ice but the sodas were packed with ice. And I assume you can add topping without a surch All in all, I'd rather have a Wendy's 4for4 and call it day. read more

Seriously good late night eats! Most burger places couldn't care about fresh food at 11:00 at night but not this place. Their food is Hot fast and fresh while delivered with a smile. Their shakes are great and thick. Worth the stop. read more

Food taste good and the service is pretty fast unless the line is wrapped around the building but that just goes to show it's good food for a good price read more

Ok idc idc about no other reviews. Here's what mine was and the main reason I always check places out for myself. Although the drive thru line was to the street, I was in and out with my food in 8 minutes. Service was friendly. Order was corre Food: I got a double burger with EVERYTHING. The first bite I was like.. kinda like Burger King. 2nd bite I was like.. nah more like Backyard Burger. By the 3rd bite I was like it's a baby Stamp Burger (almost not quite) a tad more seasoning would've been cool. But otherwise, it's a decent fast food burger. I got onion rings for one of my sides. They are just frozen onion rings, kind of slightly sweet but not too sweet. The taste are similar to Burger King's onion rings but better. The quesadilla was my second side. It was really thin, taste like a cheese roll up from Taco Bell. But they were cool for the price. It also came with a large drink. All for $5.98!!!! I will definitely be back. Really all I need is the burger, but I'd probably get these two same sides for the price. Check them out and let us know your experience. read more

This review is worth consideration that this is a fast food restaurant. The food was above grade for a fast food restaurant. The kids and they were working very hard and moved quickly on filling our orders. I had onion rings with my burger and it was nice that they actually had onions inside of them and tasted great. That's not always the case. The tables were all clean and the restaurant was Easy to find a nice location to sit. We each ordered a shake and the funny thing of that was to not expect to get it through a straw. They were more like a blizzard so you had to eat them with a spoon but that was OK as they were substantial and tasted great. read more

good burger. i don't care for crinkle fries! but if i had to judge, they were okay! love the choices of shakes! i will return and can't wait to try other things on their BIG menu! wish the burger pattie's were a little bigger ! read more

I wanted 30 minutes for tray 1. Once a great place but like so much in Jackson's not so much anymore.

Ok so it's not gourmet food but it's bomb backyard style burgers, I have to say you can't beat this place for the price and the cooked to order food loved it I will be back here soon. read more

This has to be one of the worst restaurants of all time. If you want to see Mississippi laziness at its finest look no further. Have absolutely no regard for you as a customer and the wait time is incredible, expect to wait for half an hour. Pitiful and it reflects poorly upon this state and this community. read more

Great food. Fast service. Low price. The on site parking at the restaurant is small. But they have additional parking off to the side. Not a huge dining area but we were able to find a place to sit on a busy Saturday afternoon. Before coming we didn't realize they had a drive-thru so that was really good to know for future visits. Overall we were pleased and will definitely be coming back again! read more

Thicc Milkshakes . Don't have to worry about it melting on the way home. Drive through line is always long but goes by quick, menu is fairly priced. Can't go wrong with cookout. read more
