    Double cheeseburger, onion rings, hush puppies and a chocolate shake
    Andy C.

    I travel to Suffolk regularly for work and always look for local spots I can't find back home. I've driven by Cook Out many times, but the poor reviews always held me back. On Tuesday, I decided to stop in for just a shake--and honestly, it was very good. That gave me some hope, so I came back Wednesday for a full meal. Unfortunately, the reviews were right--if anything, they didn't go far enough. The experience started off rough. The cashier had one of the worst attitudes I've come across in any restaurant. No greeting, no help, no acknowledgment--even after I mentioned it was my first time eating there. She seemed completely uninterested in being there and definitely didn't want to help customers. I ordered a shake, double cheeseburger, onion rings, and hush puppies. My shake was slapped down on the counter, and it was so sticky it nearly took two hands to pick it up. The tables were dirty, everything felt sticky, and I was immediately glad I had ordered to-go. The food looked decent in the container, but the taste didn't follow through. It was all just... bad. Greasy, bland, and disappointing. It doesn't seem like the owner has eaten here recently--or maybe even visited the place in a while. If they had, I imagine things would look and feel very different. I'm not going to call the number on the website, because there's really nothing they could say or offer that would convince me to come back. I just wish I'd gone somewhere else.

    My receipt on my bag - After I paid I was given this ...

    I swear the customer service at Cook Out has got to be the worst I have ever dealt with! It never improves, they continue to hire rude young kids. I hate the fact that I LOVE some of their food and definitely their milkshakes because if it wasn't for that I would never go back! Tonight we went and got one tray with a Cheerwine and an EXTRA LARGE Cheerwine- we got 2 regular instead. Sat there in line for 5 minutes while the cashier ignored that I was there - when I could finally get her attention and I told her all i needed was a LARGE Cheerwine she rolled her eyes and snapped THAT ISBA LARGE OH MY GOD!!! While the manager sat there and did nothing. Rude ass kid

    Yee-haw! Cook Out (CO) is comin' to Suffolk! So, saddle up, partner--I stopped by on their opening day, and I'm ready to tell you my tale. I've been planning to check out CO, but when I found out one was being built right down on N. Main St., I was excited. When I knew today was *the* day, I grabbed my boys and we headed over there. The parking lot was crazy, though, so I decided to eat lunch at Chick-fil-A across the street instead. However, when we were done, the parking lot at CO had quieted down. Being the good Yelper that I am, we went over to CO even with our tummies full. That's dedication! The first thing I noticed is that they have a double drive-thru--I have never seen that before! The second thing that caught my eye was the interior when we walked inside. For a fast food joint, CO is pretty cool. CO is a southern chain (North Carolina, Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky, and Tennessee) that boasts their "cooked outdoor style," and they use a hunting lodge/Old West décor. I *really* dig the feel of the place. I love the high ceilings (except when it's busy in there and too loud) and the unique sink next to the counter and condiments station (see my pic). The service was quite impressive, especially on their first day. The staff was friendly (not CFA-friendly, but much better than the average fast food establishment), the order process was fast, and the food came out without any errors. So far, so good. Right? *gulp* Well, folks, that's where the positives stop. We all shared a hot dog Cook Out Style (Mustard, Homemade Chili, Homemade Slaw, Onion), a regular burger Out West Style (Mayo, BBQ Sauce, Pickles, Bacon, Onion), a small fry, and 3 shakes (Strawberry, Mocha, and Caramel Fudge). Fries: I thought they were awful. They reminded me of Burger King's fries when they changed to their yucky ones. No flavor at all. Enough said. Burger: My oldest ate this by himself, but I did take a small bite of the meat. When I opened up the wrapper, it looked like a hot mess. Again, it reminded me of BK's burgers--tasted like flame broiled, dry, and overdone. My son said it was the worst he's ever had. Moving on... Hot Dog: I took two-three bites and that was all I could finish. The hot dog was super tiny--no plump, juicy dog here. I know there was coleslaw in there, but I couldn't taste it with all that salty chili on top. Blah. Shakes: Okay. I lied. The shakes were pretty decent, especially the strawberry. If I were to ever return, it would be for the shakes. Look, I had low expectations anyway, but I wanted to try it out. I was impressed with the service and the ambiance. I have a feeling that CO will be busy--the big draw here is the value. If you can deal with regular fast food, then you might be pleasantly surprised at CO. For me, it's a big no. Sorry CO.

Mine arrived with about a quarter inch raspberry in the bottom of the cup and the rest cream. Big difference. Still, it was okay. All in all, very average. A bit expensive, I think, for what I received. I'd order from them again, maybe, but would be looking for somewhere better to try or settle for some old favorite place before I settled on them again.

It does get crowded though. They also had a little market where they sell ice cream, pie, jerky's, snacks. I really wanted to try their soft serve too, but by the time we finished eating, there was a HUGE line, so I'm kind of sad I didn't get to try it. Guess that just means I have to come back!

And downtown Suffolk is just beautiful and quaint, it feels friendly and idyllic. *Ambience: Extremely comfortable, super approachable, but also refined with lots of wood and brick, but open and airy, and lots of light. You walk in to a cocktail and bar area, with an incredible painted sign on the brick wall behind the bar, that is a total throwback. The bar is incredibly comfortable and open and warm feeling. There are hardwood tables and beautiful booths along with a private dining area in the back. Really couldn't ask for or want for a more comfortable environment. *Service: absolutely stellar, super friendly staff, our server could not have been nicer or more genuine, or had more of an "ownership attitude" as if the restaurant meant everything to her, and so did us being there. She knew everything on the menu, had great recommendations, and insured we were consistently taken care of. She truly missed nothing. Harper, the owner, came over to check on us and ensure we were enjoying ourselves. He couldn't have been nicer or kinder or more humble. Service was outstanding. *Food & Drinks: The food! The drinks! Oh man! I've been a "Yelp Elite Member" for almost 10 years and the food here at hT is near the top of all my reviews, hundreds of them. The highest quality ingredients, impeccably curated, ingeniously but simply paired, created with a true love for the art of cooking and the true joy of the consumer. This was obvious. We started with a Mainstream Manhattan and Old Fashioned from the bar. No ordinary bartender, she's a true mixologist/professional. Both drinks were excellent, no "simple syrup" used here, raw sugar cubes melted into the finest spirits, yummm! We order brussels sprouts from the appetizer menu everywhere we go and compare them. None have ever come close to our favorite, for a dozen years, until now. These were crispy on the outside, but juicy inside, flash fried to an al dente bite and finished (almost injected) with a cherry vinegar glaze that permeated every bite with sweet, tart perfection. We also started with the vibrant Camden County May Pea & Truffle Toast which was like a celebration of spring with a fresh, grilled baguette topped with fancy Italian truffle cheese (insane!), sweet tender may peas, and fresh pea shoots, all drizzled with olive oil for a fresh, earthy, and simple bite that captured the essence of this farm-to-table cuisine. For entrees we ordered the Ben Johnson's Soft Shell Crabs with remoulade and the Brown Sugar Brined Porkchop with pimp cheese, grits, and chard tomatoes with a side of hand cut fries with roast shallot mayo. Everything was stellar, no exceptions. I can honestly say this was **the best pork chop I've ever eaten, ever.** Tender, sweet, meaty and paired perfectly with the creamy cheese grits and the tang and smoke of the charred tomatoes. Ridiculously good! See my photos, too bad they don't come with "taste-o-vision", because, wow! The hand cut, skin on, double fried potatoes and roast shallot mayo were fantastic. As if that wasn't enough food, they also brought us stone ground cornbread, with a massive slab of rough salted butter, steamy, warm, soft, buttery perfection. I'm ready to go back now! *Value & Overall: I posted pictures of all menus and all prices. Their spirits and mixed drink selections from the bar are incredible. The food, service and ambience simply couldn't have been better. Prices, as you'll see, are exactly in line for what you get and an excellent value. Portions on everything were excellent and we ended up taking home quite a bit of food, which was also stellar the next day. I absolutely cannot recommend Harper's Table highly enough. This establishment, all parts of it, truly earn a five star review across the board with no exceptions. Have no hesitation, make a reservation, go, it will become an instant favorite.
