The reason i gave 3 stars overall...the amount of food you get just isnt worth the cost. I paid for the tray with cheese bites and a quesadilla.
I know you have to make a profit, but it had 6 little bites in there and the quesadilla barely had any cheese or meat in it. A suitable number would be 10 curds and about 50% more meat and cheese in the quesadilla considering there actually was almost none.
It's just really getting old how you go to fast food places, spend so much and are given so little.

Great burgers

Best French fries I’ve had in years, but I did ask for “extra crispy “, no complaints or static, just happy smiles. The Cook Out style dogs with jalapeños were out of this world, I have a new favorite, they are grilled jalapeños (from fresh not pickled)

It is good fast food. Cheap if you order the tray. But sometimes the line at drive through are too long and they don't move that fast

Shakes are very overpriced. Not that great in my opinion. Service is ok. The atmosphere isn't. No music. No TV. Nothing.

Excellent, friendly staff. Visited for Lunch August 25, 2025. Had a food item that subpar, but the employees approached us and replaced it. We didn’t even have to mention it. This is superb customer care. It’s rare nowadays. This is a prime reason I love coming back too cookout (well, the great food and tasty cheer wine are top reasons too).
Y’all keep up the great work!

We eat at Cookout in Starkville an average od about once a week. We have noticed the service lately is not as good as it usually is but the WORST thing we have ever seen happened in July 22, 2025-to the point I called the health inspector. After we sat down to wait for our food we noticed that the girl taking our order didn't have on any shoes (we could see her bright green socks under the counter from the booth we sat at). She was also walking back and forth from the counter into the kitchen area, but what REALLY made it the worst was she went into the men's restroom like that with a bucket if water to clean, we could hear her sloshing it around in there, and after a few minutes she left the bathroom and went BACK into the kitchen. I didn't say a word to the manager because she was standing right outside the men's restroom talking to the girl at one point during the cleaning and there is NO WAY a person could mistake her socks for shoes, so the manager obviously already knew.
***I have tried to add the picture we took of the incident but it is not showing up. Hopefully it appears later.

Waited at an empty counter for 10 minutes got asked if I had ordered yet, told them no. He asked what I wanted and after I started placing my order someone walked in and the cashier started talking to them and took their order. And acted like I wasn't here.

Good food, but one of the employees was completely barefoot in the kitchen.
