“The best food, the best service, and with the amount of food per serving, the best prices. After 9 years of going here, I still can't say enough. My husband loves the spring rolls, ginger chicken, and fried rice. He will not eat Asian food anywhere else. Highly recommend eating here.”

“This place has enough room to seat customer. The salad bar needs to be covered a little more so that it could be a safer / shielded ( a little close to door so i think). The food tasted well. I would have given it a 5 but the portion was a little small for the price, none the less it tasted good. I had a pasta dish however, the customer service is not as great. It didn’t seem to be super busy yet it was somewhat difficult to get service waited for server at the bar . Bar a good atmosphere comfortable Prices seems to be reasonable. It’s clean and plenty of parking.”

“The staff and the food are always the best. Always. The food is good, hot and fresh every time. My German Shepherd gives it 4 out of 4 paws. Sometimes she gets her own box of strips and sometimes we split a box of 10. She wolfs hers down and wags her tail the entire time she’s eating. She approves of the waffle fries too. Seriously, we love your food.”

“I had 2 sopes de pollo. This is my first time with sopes. They were served hot and fresh. I asked the guy at the counter how big they were and he said they were small so I ordered 2. Turns out they are actually very substantial and I was not able to finish the two. The pickled onions are very good. The salsa verde is very hot by the way. For whatever reason, they are not accepting cards right now you have to pay in cash. The menu includes meat cuts that I have never seen in tacos such as buche, cabeza and cuerito. I’m here on a Tuesday night so honestly, there are not many people , (just a steady small stream) and it’s just laid-back and quiet in here. And nice and cool on this 90degrees day. No menudo on the menu today. Only Saturday and Sunday.”

“My first time visiting Jay's Country Kitchen, and I was EXTREMELY pleased. The waitress, Liz, was SO nice and VERY efficient!Even though they were steadily busy, our orders came out quickly. Eggs, bacon, 2 omelettes, pancakes, grits, toast (no biscuits), and coffee; everything was cooked to order and correct the first time.This is a gem of a place... Come as you are, and stay awhile OR call ahead for pick up (no drive thru) and head back out, easy peasy! They also offer a great lunch menu (which I look forward to trying in the near future), and everything is VERY reasonably priced!!CLOSED Sunday and Monday.6 am- 2 pm Tuesday - Saturday.Parking in the front and both sides of the establishment.Check them out.. I highly doubt you will be sorry you did!”

“Why does it look like a storage facility inside? One line of tables down middle with junk to sell on them. Drinks stacked beside the wall. Or machine that are unplugged. Does not have a rest room, isn’t that illegal? It had one down the hall when it had a dining area in it , I’ve used it. Now the hall is boarded up. COVID IS OVER, make it a place to eat if a resent place to walk in or close. How bad at business do you have to be to realize your restaurant looks like a back door drug deal.”

Even though the menu leans toward American Chinese cuisine, the dishes still retain the flavors of traditional Chinese cooking. The beef is expertly prepared in advance, which really shows their dedication to quality. It’s clear they put a lot of heart into running this cozy little restaurant. Highly recommended!”

“Simple menu, very good prices, friendly folks, and good eats.
Quaint atmosphere where you can tell they care about serving quality food and making you feel welcome.
If you get hung up on needing brand new booths and fancy dishes, this isn't the place for you. But if you want a good plate of food at a very reasonable price, then you can't go wrong. Will go again if we are passing through Lumberton any time soon.”

“I absolutely LOVE checkers!!!! The chicken was piping hot, the fries were salted just enough and those apple pies were on point with the cinnamon sugar 😋 The drive thru person said her name was Lexi, she was so sweet to me, tried her best to get all my money 🤣 She even gave me a few coupons for the week. Checkers will definitely be my first choice for lunch on Mondays.”

“Honestly, I have low expectations of most Golden Corrals. That said, I was pleasantly surprised by the level of service at this one.
The food was hit or miss. The price was very inexpensive, I think less than $15 per person. One major issue I had was that the plates were not being dried after being washed: I don’t want to put my food on a wet plate.
Overall, a pretty positive stop on a long road trip.”

“Brandon, my waiter, was very outstanding, friendly, easy going, got the order right went over it twice though, I'm sure to be assured he had it correct but nevertheless, spectacular. Food was amazing. Hot and delicious. Seems they are slow due to the construction work beside them though. If I ever happened to be around this area, I would be coming here first.”

This was my first time exploring a Cook Out location, so I was surprised it was a drive thru only, but more odd was there were two lines to put your order and the pick up windows crossed each other which was confusing.”
