    Nou Nou S.

    So many years ago, while working for an armored truck company, I used to drive by these restaurants called Pollo Campero in northern Va. I was happy to see one in Fred'burg and finally was able to make a visit. It's located off Plank Rd (Rt. 3) next to Taco Bell, diagonally from Honey Pig and At Home. As you walked in, the restaurant is very clean, seats are space out, and you make your order with cashier. The menu offers combo meals, sandwiches, empanadas, variety of side dishes, one dessert and they prepared their chickens in two ways: fried and grilled. What I find unique and different about their self served beverages, not only they offer soda drinks but also a floral, fruit and horchatas too. I ordered 4 items: 1) 2 piece combo meal 2) Chicken empanada 3) Spicy chicken sandwich 4) Mango nectarine drink. Once you place your order, you are given a number and if you don't mind a little wait since the food is made freshly. The food will be brought to your table with real utensils and napkins. The two piece chicken which is a leg and thigh were served with fried plantains as my side. Their fried chicken was tender, crispy and succulent. Be careful with the first bite as they are piping hot but very delicious. You don't need any sauce because they are well seasoned and the plantains were cooked perfectly. They too were delicious. Surprisingly their chicken empanada had a light outer skin and the filling was full of umami. I will definitely order more than one next time. The spicy chicken sandwich was layered with pickles, has a thin crust, and spread with a habanero sauce. I just wish there were more of the sauce though but it was very good. I wash it down with a mango nectarine drink which was smooth, refreshing and delicious. My cashier was named Jocelyn. She was friendly, patient and knowledgeable. I will definitely make another visit to try other items on their menu. Welcome to Fred'burg!

    They just opened and we went inside to order. We waited in the line all to be told it is a 30 minute wait to order chicken. So I just ordered Yuca fries and beans. Very disappointed with the way it is being run. Will wait a month and try some chicken but for now it is not worth coming here.it has been over 30 minutes and I still have not received my small beans and small Yuka fries. This is absolutely ridiculous. It took a hour to get a small bean, which was very small and an extremely small Yuka fry. I will never come back. Not worth the price. I would give them less than a 1 star if I could.

    Horrifically bland greasy fried chicken, soggy tasteless roasted chicken. Fried, plaintains and dinner roll.

As a longtime Cookout fan who first discovered the chain during late night college runs in North Carolina, I always make a point to stop by whenever I'm near one of their northernmost locations in Fredericksburg, VA. Over the years, Cookout has come a long way from the plain white Styrofoam trays to the new branded paper boxes with vent holes, which do a great job of keeping fried foods crispy and fresh. I've dined inside this location about half a dozen times and have always had a great experience. The restaurant is consistently clean, the staff are friendly, and service is quick. My go to order is the Cookout Tray with a big double burger prepared Cookout Style, which means Carolina chili, slaw, cheese, and raw onions. I usually get fries and onion rings as my sides. Even though the tray used to be $3.99 back in my college days, the current price of $6.99 still feels like a great value considering the portion size and quality. On my most recent visit, I was extra hungry and decided to try a second mini tray for $5.99. I went with two corndogs as the main and added cheese bites and hush puppies as sides, plus a Snickers milkshake to top it off. Everything came out hot, fresh, and exactly how I remember it. The milkshake was thick and creamy, just the way it should be, and I was absolutely stuffed by the end. Cookout's big double burgers, whether you get them Cookout Style or Cheddar Style with grilled onions, cheese sauce, and bacon, are easily some of the best fast food burgers for the price. Between the generous portions, variety of options, and late night hours (many locations stay open until 3 a.m.), Cookout continues to deliver on both taste and value. Overall, this Fredericksburg location has never disappointed me and remains one of my favorite stops when I'm craving a classic Cookout meal. Five stars all around for great food, friendly service, and consistent quality.

    Whenever I'm in Fredericksburg, I'll stop for some Cook Out. Every time I've visited this location,…read morethe staff is always pleasant, friendly and polite and today's visit was no different. I went inside to place my order and it wasn't busy so there no line. Inside was clean and orderly. I ordered a bbq tray with a corn dog and walking taco with jalapeños as my sides and a Cheerwine to drink. The menagerie of menu items is impressive and the fact that corn dogs and walking tacos are offered as sides is amazing on so many levels! (The walking taco is not listed on the online menu but they do have it!) I always order the bbq sandwich with bbq sauce on the side and in addition to the hot sauce and coleslaw it normally comes with. My meal today was nothing short of delicious as per usual and I left for my drive home happy and satisfied with my experience.

    I hadn't been to any Checkers in many years, this particular location was probably my last... I…read morerecall this location not being very impressive, but I used to love the one in Woodbridge. So, recently I stopped in here for lunch and got one of their "2 for" deals - I tried two of the Checkerburgers, with everything. I also noticed they have an extra large version of their fries and since I absolutely loved their fries, I got it. First off - Placing my order - Was Complicated! Why can't people who work drive-thrus in this country speak and understand fluent English? This is far from being anything offensive, it's honest - I had a tough time simply asking what comes on the burger. While the service was friendly enough, the language barrier was ridiculous and frankly, unacceptable. The food - The burgers appeared to be made with stale buns. They had that texture which is prevalent when they've been exposed to air too long. Could have been because I got there around 10:45AM for "lunch" but that's no excuse. They should NOT be serving from a patch of buns opened the day before. Either way, these buns were no good. The meat wasn't hot, it didn't even melt the cheese. I found this horribly disappointing, as it's the reason I no longer eat at McDonalds - they do this "warmer drawer" mess that keeps meat lukewarm, but not hot enough to melt the cheese. Well, it seems Checkers is also serving meat that isn't hot enough to melt cheese - unacceptable! Finally, the fries - They tasted like waffle cone! They had a sweet and odd back note to them, which isn't what I'm familiar with. I wonder if they were fried in the same vat as a dessert item they also make/serve? Either way, I tossed them out after eating about ¼ of the cup of them. I was so disappointed with this visit that it'll be another 8 years before I come back.

    The food was hard and the employees are rude and the truth is terrible service but the manager it's…read moreso nice

And I did like the fact that the food was cooked to order so it was very fresh. I did not visit the restroom so I can't speak to the status of the cleanliness. The soda fountain could have been a little cleaner. Everything was very sticky, and the tray was overflowing. The tables and around the tables were clean.. The hush puppies, biscuits, and the macaroni and cheese were the best I've ever had from a fast food restaurant. As for the chicken, it smelled amazing. Unfortunately, from my taste, I found it very salty and greasy. The chicken was well flavored, but it was just way too salty for me I also tried their banana pudding and unfortunately, once again, at least from my taste, it was lacking the right flavors. I did try their honey butter chicken biscuit sandwich I found that to be delicious So for that alone, it's totally worth a trip. I did forget to take a picture of banana pudding and the honey butter biscuit sandwich
