    My big double cheese burger tray.
    Patrick C.

    This applies to the Pigeon Forge, TN location only. Its new but not new enough not to have worked out the kinks. Twice I've tried it and that was enough. The trays are assembled so sloppy and obviously without any care. The burgers are inedible. My burger literally looked like its creator took all the ingredients in his/her hand and packed it as if he was making a snowball. It was a complete messy blob of mushed up ingredients wrapped in foil. I ordered cheese balls and onion rings as my sides. I received 3 onion rings and 5 cheese balls. I get its cheep fast food and all that. But at least make it edible. I've been to other locations and have not experienced this. Only the Pigeon Forge location. They should examine their management there.

    Cook out is a standard fast food go-to. I prefer it over the other fast food chains because the menu options are better as are the prices. Sometimes the buns are a little stale, sometimes the portions are smaller, but if Im near the Strip, it's where Im going!

    1/2 lb burger just $2.99

    Cheap food at the right price. Always have had good service (even when busy) and they're open late into the night when options are limited

    Omg!!! A double line and parking lot full.. security guards keeping a good flow and it's our first…read moretime!! 15 plus cars back and the line moves with ease.. menu is simplistic with those famous fingers in boxes of 2.. 3 .. 4.. 6 or tailgate fingers of 50.. 75... 100!! Your finger box includes fries.. grilled bread and Cole slaw and their sauce and choice of 32oz. drink!! Catsup for the fries... simple.. to the point.. perfected and ... it's great! Fingers are big.. coated to perfection and we split the 6 finger box meal!! It was ENOUGH!! SAUCE... great! Hate to say but... chick filet has a challenge in the wings!! Or should I say fingers Great.. service.. meal and prices are reasonable ... our 6 piece meal which filled us was $16.99 .. actually cheaper than two burgers/fries and drinks at a drive through! They are gona rock it we think... give it a try!! It's real chicken!!!

    Terrible lines...we had to come try it to see what the hype was about. Waiting in line after 20…read moreminutes and still not moving very much, I decided to run inside and place my order, hubby drove around while I ran inside. I ordered the 6 piece with crinkle fries and slaw and a 32 oz. Drink. $19 for this. A little expensive on my opinion. The tenders were not big, they were a little below average, had a bland taste, very tender, juicy but needed spice. I did like the southwest sauce that came with it. Slaw was ok, nothing to brag about. The crinkle fries were dry and thin cut, hard and crispy. Everything was hot and fresh. Would I eat here again. Uhhhh, maybe. I wasn't overly impressed.

    Headed to a Smokies game, we chose to stop into SmashCity for a pregame burger…read more The service and burger came up quickly. I opted for the truffle smash and large fry. My buddy opted for the Spicy Smash. The burgers were mmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmm great, Juicy and the bun held up. Fries were fresh and would like to see maybe a topping or poutine option for them. Cool spot to get some AC and great burger before a Smokies game or a night in the old City.

    We already had 250 miles under our belt for the day. 4 more hours to home. I was sick of fast food…read moreand we were making good time so we decided to venture off the road, but just a little. SmashCity wasn't far off of the interstate, it had good ratings and although we'd been eating burgers and fries quite a bit on this roadtrip, a good burger and fries really sounded good. All of the reviews were right on - this was absolutely NOT fast food - it was fast, really fast, but the speed was just bonus. As we usually do, we split. We chose the Carolina BBQ smash. The burgers were juicy - if you're not careful, I guarantee you'll be wearing it. Two critiques, it definitely needed more sauce - I just added some of the SmashCity sauce from our fries and it worked but I really would have liked to have had more BBQ sauce. Second, the fried onions were quite burned. I pulled off most of them. The hand cut fries were piping hot, just the right amount of greasy and seasoned perfectly. Splitting the burger was a good call - I'd never have eaten the whole thing myself. The burger and fries were just over $20. When you consider a Big Mac meal at that clown place is $14, SmashCity is almost a bargain. Paul, the owner was like the energizer bunny - he was everywhere at once. Personality oozed from his pores. Make sure you tell him Sue said hi! (He won't remember me but just say hi anyway!) Now I wouldn't say SmashCity has the best burgers - that award goes to our friend Jerry. He makes a pretty mean smash burger on the blackstone. If you have an extra half hour, skip the fast food burger joints, get off that highway, and go let Paul fill your belly for the rest of your trip! You'll appreciate it!
