I first had Bojangles in the Fredericksburg area and thought it was excellent. I went to ones in Prince George's County, MD as well as Union Station DC, areas closest to where I lived. All the MD & DC closed in late 2023. I remember liking the New Carrollton, MD location often when I had work travel pre-Covid. I went one time in early 2023 on work travel over there, and I was underwhelmed with that location. Although the food was great, they were as slow as molasses and was kind of dirty in there; not the experiences I had in the past. Although they had their issues, I was disappointed when I saw they had closed. So, when in Rome, I wanted to make to Bojangles on SML trip. Fast food is limited in the area. It's Bojangles & Wendy's, which is weak, and I live within 5 miles of a Wendy's, so I wanted to get something I can't get at home. I was very impressed with how friendly, fast, & tasty the food was on both visits here. I also was very impressed how clean it was in this location unlike the former MD locations. They also had American flags up for week of 4th of July, which was nice. This location was better than any of the MD locations I went to, DC, Fredericksburg, & one in North Carolina. Both times I got the chicken tender platter, which is tenders, fries (well seasoned), & biscuit; all delicious with Bo Sauce along with sweet tea, a nice Southern delicacy freshly brewed here. Next time at SML, I'll try to make it back to Bojangles.

For it to be New Years Eve, it wasn't busy, but sandwiches were brought back for missing bacon and I wished I had left mine.

This is the only quick service burger place near us while we're at the lake. I meant it to be a…read morefast meal before a pre-4th of July grocery run and it was anything but. Our order was correct on our ticket and it was read back correctly, but two of three burgers were wrong when they came out. When the replacement burgers came out they were missing other things that were supposed to be on them. It took 18 minutes after ordering to get most of our stuff and then the bacon was tossed on our table at the end in a side dish as it was still missing from our sandwiches. Just wild! It was 1:20 when we got here and there were a few people in the lobby as well as the drive through, but not super slammed. The chef seemed pissed off when I brought the first set of wrong burgers back to the counter. An audible "J.C." was muttered. So in spite of decent sanitation ratings, the attitude and multiple wrong orders will dissuade me from returning again anytime soon.

To be honest, I thought I did not have enough food as I only received one filet versus the two filets I am used to. It turned out the portions were more than enough, and I had plenty left for leftovers. Notice the size of the filet. The food was very tasty and seasoned right. The sweet tea was so good I ordered 3 glasses. The carrot cake concluded a wonderful evening of eating. The service is great and wholesome, and the restaurant was very clean, and I enjoyed the oldie but goodies Soul and R&B music playing in the restaurant.

My girlfriend highly recommended Cook Out, which I never had before as we don't have them in the area I live in MD or even in northern VA as far as I know. Her parents have a home by Smith Mountain Lake. We were down there the week of 4th of July 2024. On the last day, we drove to the Cook Out for lunch so that I could try it. Wow, I was impressed with both the inexpensive prices & good quality burger! This was almost on par with In & Out Burger in terms of the taste, another burger place we sadly DON'T have in my home state, Maryland. The menu is a la carte even to the ingredients on the burger, like lettuce was extra. It took some getting used to, but I kind of liked in that I wasn't paying for stuff I might not have cared for much. Staff was cordial and helpful with my couple of questions. My g/f & I split the 12-piece hash puppies and sweet tea. Hush puppies were delicious and not a normal thing I get in MD due to not many places having it. At fast food burgers I've had in MD, typically fries are the standard side item; so I liked having the hush puppies option. Overall, my experience was excellent with the Rocky Mount Cook Out. Unfortunately, the 3 other locations I went to after (one of which I didn't eat at because they didn't have an open dining room, was pouring rain outside, and didn't want to eat in the car like animals) weren't as good, but I'd definitely try to return to the Rocky Mount, VA location.
