They only had 1 cook on 7/19 at midnight and were still able to get food out as fast as they could. They made sure everyone that was in thier line got taken care of. Really appreciate the hard work they did. Food was hot fresh and tasty read more

The shake was good. That's the only positive statement I can make. The toppings on the burger were to cover up the nasty taste of the meat. The whole thing ended up in the trash after one bite. I would not recommend this burger joint. I did go here when they first opened. I thought maybe after so much time they would improve. I was wrong. There has been no improvement read more

Super thick milkshakes that tasty yummy with tons of flavors. It's a cheap meal that taste good. We've always quick, easy friendly service. read more

New place on highland and I had to see what all hype was about. I felt left out because I've never even heard of Cook Out before lol As expected,the line was literally down the street! The staff kept it moving though,my entire wait was maybe 20 mins. Because I'm a fat ass, I went with a cook out tray and a grilled hot dog. My two sides where fries and hush puppies. Plus a vanilla milkshake. Might as well go all out! The food was pretty good, and cheap so I can imagine it's perfect after the club or for the munchies lmao. read more

Hands down the best thing that could of ever happen to Elvis Presley Blvd in the Memphis whitehaven community . The food is fresh and good . The service is great and fast . Much much better than Dixie queen trashy dingy different price every night wrong order establishment. Southaven needs a cook out for late night eats read more

EXCELLENT! Of course, recognize it for what it is - meaning that it's not fine dining but, certainly a serious step above any "fast food". Went there several nights ago for a "quick snack" and got a hot dog and a vanilla shale (one of 40 flavors). It was good, delivered fast, and the price didn't​ break the bank. So - today I returned for lunch and they have a $4.99 special that gives you great​ choices of the main product (like a ​burger​, chicken, hot dog, etc.) + one side item + drink. Can't beat it. A special "hats's off" to Emma who was very pleasant​ and guided me through the many choices - but she grabbed 'hold of exactly what I was looking for and made an excellent recommendation. They have Cheerwine there and if you haven't tried it, you should! The place is clean, comfortable and well lit --- and most of all, they have Sirius Radio playing Christian​ music -- a very nice approach. read more

Hats off to the staff at Cook Out for how fast they process orders and how clean they keep the place. I hardly ever eat fast food but when I do, in most cases the fast food restaurants are not very clean and the garbage cans are overflowing. On both my visits to Cook Out I've seen the staff wiping down tables, picking up trash and checking the trash cans. That's just not very common around this area. Oh and they are all so friendly! That's another positive you don't get at other fast food places around here. The food is above average for fast food and a great value for your wallet. So far I've tried a couple different burgers and they are much better than your average fast food burger. On my first visit I had the Regular Burger and it was good but the patty is not very big. The toppings were surprisingly fresh and tasty, nice crisp lettuce and tomato. The fries were great! I didn't expect them to be so good. They appeared to be hand cut but I would be really surprised if they were. I had a chicken quesadilla also on my first visit as part of my combo and I was not impressed. The chicken was almost nonexistent and looked like it may have come from a can. My second visit I got the Big-Double Burger and it was better than the Regular Burger I had on my first visit. The hush puppies were good but no match for Soul Fish or Flying Fish quality hush puppies. They were sweet but very little seasoning, more like fried cornbread. The corn dogs are your typical frozen food variety, it was ok but definitely not something I'll order again. On both visits my meals were $6 with tax. Although not the most incredible meal I've ever had it was better than I expected on both visits and the service was way above any fast food chains around here with the exception of Chick-Fil-A. My challenge to the Management team at Cook Out is to maintain your customer service level and continue what you've started and maybe this thing called customer service may just catch on around the city. Hey! a guy can dream can't he?!? read more

Oh hell yes, Cook Out has finally come to Memphis. THANK YOU COOK OUT. I've only been to the restaurant on the Cumberland Strip at UT Knoxville during our last trip there, and loved it. Now, Highland Strip and U of M, welcome to Cook Out. For $5.99? you get it all, you get it your way, you get more choices for sides than you can imagine. How about Pups, dba hush puppies as a side, how about a 'bacon wrap', how about a'chicken wrap' - AS SIDES, are you kidding me, no, believe it folks. If you don't, simply drive by at lunch or dinner - the cars are backed up down Highland trying to get in this place. It is crazy had popular this has become since their opening just a short while ago. And, did I mention, their dogs are .99c - yes, and, damn good dogs. The $5.99 special has unlimited options, how about grilled onions, yes, I'll take that, thanks. I had the burger, shake, o rings, and, chili - yes, small bowl of chili as a side, not bad if I must say. See you again soon Cook Out, and again, thanks for finally coming to Memphis. read more

First time ever eating at Cook Out. The food was hot and prompt. Atmosphere was nice and the music was so appreciated. I can't believe we still have some ppl not scared of faith. Thank you Cook Out you will have a life long customer with me. God Bless. read more

I feel a bit of guilt because I put a tip about vegetarian options when they first opened. I feel guilt, because the vegetarian options are not good. We ordered one of these 4.99 eat your heart out combos with a strawberry shake upgrade. In regards to food: The hush puppies are fried cornbread with no seasoning or the seasonings were hush AF. Grilled cheese is two flipped over hamburger buns with The kraft cheese slice you get in the plastic wrap barely melted. Quesadilla wasn't much better. Onion rings were a circular version of the quiet puppies add a hint of onion powder. The milkshake was luke warm. (I'm just as confused as you in reading this.) it did taste fresher than McD, but why was it frozen but not cold. Right The customer service wasn't great, but I'll say that it appeared like they hired too many people to take care of the hype/fire. The employees were crawling on each other practically which would make me unpleasant as well. This resulted in confusing processes, cold hot food, lukewarm milkshakes, and my order still being messed up. *Calls Sway* As the high schoolers write: In conclusion, I won't be back. read more

Danvers was better food Staff was very friendly and the food came out hot a fresh. Food is just average fast food. Sysco style chicken fingers and onion rings as an example. Burger was ok with decent quality meat. Nothing to write home about. Good addition to Highland Strip and I'm sure the college kids will be big fans. read more

Great food! Great value! OK. We've been wanting to try this place for months and finally got a chance tonight. Needless to say the place was HOPPING!! We couldn't even turn into the drive from the turn lane because the cars were lined up turning right and the drive through window was backed up that far!!! The inside was nice, clean, and lively. Lots of college kids and families with kids. The workers at the counter were very nice and friendly. We ordered burgers with two sides each. She had sides of chicken quesadillas and fries and I had sides of onion rings and a bacon wrap. At $4.99 each for a combo it was an excellent value. The burgers were really good - charbroiled flavor. The fries and onion rings were good, and the quesadilla and bacon wrap were pretty good. For an extra $1 I got a good size Reese's peanut butter cup milkshake. It was the BOMB!!!! We will be back. read more

I am not the type of person to really take on or get into doing Yelp reviews. However, the service, or SERIOUS LACK THEREOF I received at this location after ALWAYS frequenting the Cook Out locations around town, going as far as always tipping them and thanking them for providing a place for me to get a warm meal, nagged at me until I had to write something. I work overnight on the road and wouldn't have a warm meal many times if not for Cook Out. So to say I appreciate them is an understatement as I got out of MY WAY to thank and tip and basically say, 'IT'S MY PLEASURE' to be your customer.... BUT THE CAREFREE and basic 'leave us alone and go somewhere else' type attitude I got tonight, WHILE EVEN GETTING WORSE upon having to return to the store after my milkshake which was supposed to be mocha was a white as drywall making it not even look vanilla, & literally wasn't EVEN halfway full! Now I have no problem paying $7 for two milkshakes from what I typically get here, but is just an example of what one or a couple 'who cares' type employees can do to the rep of an establishment, & PERMANENTLY lost my business from being this bad, as I would rather have nothing or have a gas station hot dog rather than bother with the 'you should be waiting on us' type worthless employees they have working here! Why say it's your pleasure to serve me, when you are basically turning right around, with such lack of care in who you are servicing that I KNOW if we're turned around, would involve the same people stopping traffic and creating a scene to get what THEY FEEL they paid for given to them in return. So, why is it so hard to put yourself in the CUSTOMER'S SHOES to realize we don't want anything less than what you would want yourself, AND I AM FED UP WITH IT HERE, & FRANKLY ALL OVER THE CITY! I am having to work a job MUCH LESS than what I am educated to do and train in doing to get by right now, & WOULD NEVER treat people how I am treated by wait staff around many places around the city, & I am going to start vocalizing myself just as they may not vocalize, BUT IS SO OBVIOUS TO SEE IS MIMICKED BY A LOOK AWAY AT ANOTHER EMPLOYEE AND EYE ROLLING THAT IF I WASN'T ON THE CLOCK WOULD CAUSE ME TO DRAG THEM OUT OF THE DRIVE THRU WINDOW WITH HOW BAD THIS GOT TONIGHT! I had to keep all eye contact on them or I wouldn't have taken the redo of my milkshake order, from fear of what would have been done, that when finally getting, was worse than before with ABSOLUTELY NO FLAVOR that if mocha, should be chocolate and coffee flavor and NOT BE REMOTELY WHITE OR VANILLA COLOR WITH NO HINT OF BROWN OR CHOCOLATE TYPE TREAT I ORDERED! Cook out... from a native North Carolinian, YOU HAVE LOST MY BUSINESS!!! If I could give a 0 star or negative star review I would have NO HESITATION!!!!!!!! read more

Totally revising my review. When they first opened, they were really terrific. Recently, though, they have cut the size of the portions for the trays *dramatically* while the prices have remained the same. The food has become sub par, and they clearly don't change out their fry oil very often as the taste on everything fried has been way off the past three times we're ordered - and this has been over the past several months. I talked with a manager about it, but clearly it was a matter that went in one ear and out the other. Everything recently has also been really tough. Four visits ago, my daughter and I both had a three-four day stomach bug that started within 12 hours of eating Cook-Out. Highly unpleasant. The last time we went, I was SO looking forward to the seasonal egg nog milkshake. Returned home with it and found that it tasted of sour milk. I am really, truly done with this place, and I will not - ever - return unless I am in Murray, KY, where they are headquartered. Even then, I would be reticent to give them my business. Awful. read more

Loved my Reese's cup milkshake that I got here. Such great prices for a good amount of milkshake!

I've been a few times now so I've given it plenty of chances and I will not be going back. It's overhyped especially for the wait you have in the middle of the street to get your food. The staff is rude and they have bad customer service. I've already had to contact corporate headquarters twice about the service I've received. Corporate gave me a coupon one time and that remedied one situation but I'm not sure how they will fix the last one considering it involved a TN health code violation. YIKES! The milkshakes are too hard so you can't really enjoy it until it melts into an uncomfortable, unenjoyable liquid state. The food tastes a lot like what my dad grills so it's nice if I'm too lazy to go home to visit him. You have to pay extra for tomatoes on your burger which is weird. The Cajun fries are good but the regular fries have no flavor. You're going to need a lot of ketchup! I will end on a positive note and say that one time they gave me some of the best coca-cola I've ever tasted! If it weren't for the fact I had to go back into the store to get my drink from the manager since the drive-thru forgot to give me it in the first place, I might just give them another chance! read more

I've been waiting for Cook Out to come to Memphis. When I visit family in North Carolina it's my first stop. The food is good and cheap. We ordered one Cook Out tray with a double burger, beef quesadilla and bacon wrap for the sides, and a mint chocolate chip milkshake. The other Cook Out tray had two chili cheese hot dogs, a corn dog and fries for the sides, and a chocolate milkshake. Our total was $15! The drive-thru line was long, but they got people through quickly and the workers were all friendly. read more

For months I watched them build this "cook out" and I've always wondered about it. But I saw a great review on this place stating the food was excellent and the price was great. So while driving past it one day, I noticed the customer's line was actually in the right lane of the street traffic. Now, I thought any place that could attract a crowd, like that was worth joining the excitement. I couldn't wait to place my order and test the food. I can't assure you that everything is worth a fuss. But when I bit into my burger, I was hooked for life!!! This burger, my daughter told me was so unique because it's freshly prepared and slapped on a grill to get a taste that will literally send you to heaven...LoL! But I wasn't so enthused with the fries/onion rings at all. The oion rings have improved in taste but you only get 4 or 5. It's really hard to find delicious fast food these days that's reasonably priced. anymore worth the stop. People can eat/dine inside also but I love food on the go. My Tip: Their "Signature" Foods or Best Sellers may possibly be the "Burgers and Shakes"...All it takes is a couple of signature items to make a boom, because "uniqueness" excuses the minor concerns uless you're down right "Picky" and hard to please, then don't go. But... "GO" if you love burgers n shakes. I suggest "skip" the chilli and most of the side items, just saying. Stick with the grilled items and shakes. "Again, the Burgers n Shakes R Great"...Know what/ or what not to buy. Great prices and unlike some places, they close mid morning, for overnight eaters. read more

First things first: the milkshakes. Super thick, super good. Husband got chocolate, and I got red cherry. The Hershey's chocolate one was better; I wish the cherry flavor had been stronger in mine but it does have real cherry bits. We each got a Cook Out tray so we could try the max number of things on our first visit, although this also seems to be the norm for people eating here. I got a cheeseburger, a bacon wrap, and fries. The cheeseburger tasted like a char-broiled version of what we had at my elementary school, but with more condiments. The bacon wrap was very plain until I went to get ranch to dip it in. The fries were hardly seasoned at all... I read later that you could get them with the Cajun seasoning, so I might try that if I go again. Husband also got a cheeseburger and fries, and chicken nuggets. He was a little disappointed with the three small nuggets, and was not offered any kind of dipping sauce options for them. We did get our food fast and the staff was friendly. We might come back to try some of the different options and see if our mediocre food was a fluke or not, but I am not really enthused about anything but the milkshakes. read more

Best late night place to go in Memphis. Burgers are amazing and their hushpuppies a dozen for $1.00 is a steal. Burgers were smaller than expected and cups were greasy when we got them but what can you expect when there is a line for drive thru at 3am. read more

Great burger and chocolate shake! - much better than I ever expected in a fast food burger. I'll be a customer for sure. read more

Cheap Food and sloppy service. Good for the high school crowd.

The shakes are amazing. Thick, creamy and taste just like the flavor that it is. Soooooo Good! Also for all of you crushed ice cravers yes! They got the best crushed ice. The food is meh. However, if Greasy, latenite & cheap is what your looking for...This is your place! read more

Outstanding charcoal-grilled burgers. They are thin, similar to Steak N Shake burgers, but the charcoal flavor makes them stand out. A-1 and barbecue sauce are available. Fries are golden brown and crunchy. There are also hot dogs and 40 flavors of milkshakes. My double burger with bacon and cheese, plus French fries, a soda and a Reese's milkshake came to only $10.31! Best value in Memphis and one of the best fast food burgers in town. read more

Simple, honest burgers, dogs, and such. Nothing fancy, but it tasted good. 40 flavors of milkshakes. Burgers and hot dogs taste like you grilled them in the backyard. Fries and onion rings were hot. People were fast and friendly. Seating was plentiful even though the crowd was huge. Long line for the drive through, but the lines moved quickly. I'll be back for another burger and shake. read more

Lateriona should not have come to work if she was having a bad day!! The manager should do something about this problem ASAP!!! read more

The gift and the curse of so many restaurants in Memphis are the same. Great main dishes with mediocre to bad side dishes. I had the cheddar style burger with fries. The burger was one of the best things I've ever put in my mouth. It taste like a burger my grandmother might've made during her best ever grill session. The fries.... not so much. They were dry and lacked taste. If this you place ever gets the sides to match the main dish... OMG read more

Prices are great! Food is pretty good, burger could have been seasoned a little bit. Some of the side choices could be entrees! A win win in my book. Omg, the sweet tea is sooooo good, they have the best crushed ice too!!! The atmosphere here really speaks Cookout! I love the wood tables and decor! I love the hand washing station, whoever thought of that deserves a bonus!!! The staff is incredibly nice and knowledgeable about the menu. I definitely recommend this spot any day of the week! read more

Nope....I was too hungry and it was so good to take pics of my food. I had a couple people over for adult beverages and we were talking about food of course lol. I don't really remember how Cookout was brought up, but luckily it was. I've heard and read mixed reviews about this place. I'm glad that I listened to my belly!!! We got in the car and made our way to grab our 4th meal. Btw...it was almost 2am...I think..don't judge me it was a long night. The line was down the street, but I didn't care. The line was so long, I fell asleep waiting...and no I wasn't the driver lol. I was so excited to finally here the loud speaker asking for our order. I woke up like a kid on Christmas. Since I love cheesecake, I couldn't pass up the cheesecake shake. I also ordered a cheeseburger and fries. The service was fast once reaching the window and the food was hot and fresh. I gobbled my food down..now I have mouth burns...well received lol. read more

Great shakes. Their chili cheeseburger is amazing. I'm not much of a fry eater but I love theirs. Great shakes and my daughter loves their cheese quesadilla. Employees are nice and friendly. Food is super cheap. Large menu selection read more

I'm pretty disappointed in this place. I came here with my best friend last night and we both got milkshakes, I got the oreo and she got the chocolate caramel one and to be completely honest they were just, meh. My milkshake only had a couple of oreo crumbs and the rest was just straight up vanilla and it didn't taste like anything. We also got the cheese fries thinking it would be fries with shredded cheese or something but it was straight up weird yellow "cheese", not even the nacho cheese. It had a weird taste and I didn't like it. read more

Wanted to see what all the hype was about...this place is the absolute worst, my grandbaby could have presented better food. I literally couldn't find the chicken in my chicken quesadillas, fries was Luke warm, my husband chicken sandwich had more onions than chicken I could go on and on about this place but it's not even worth it or my money definitely won't be back read more

Too busy for their own good. Food mace sloppy and incorrect. THEY WILL FORGET PARTS OF YOUR ORDER!!!!

Food was great quality for the price. Very affordable and the staff were very hospitable. I work in regional restaurant management and I will say this establishment has something most other restaurant operators dream of. Family and I will definitely be back. read more

I had the cheddar burger with onion rings and it was delicious! Piping hot and really good. Very friendly, knowledgeable and efficient staff! I was there at lunchtime and it was very busy. They had an employee assigning to cleaning the eating area. As soon as people got up she immediately began wiping the table and sweeping the floor. It was very clean. There were 2 employees outside taking drive-through orders and I was very impressed at the number of people and burgers they accommodated in a short period of time. read more
