Other than cooking for myself (or my Grandma's cooking), this is hands down the best southern food I have had in years. The staff was very polite. I am only disappointed that they are so far from home.“

“It was our pleasure to dine at the Cookeville, TN Red Lobster at 1410 Interstate Dr. on December 12. Although it was our first time, our guest at the table is a repeat customer. Our Server Denise did an excellent job of taking our order and delivering our food in a timely manner. Butch, Sheila, and Flo (Leaders and Manager) were beyond helpful to us. Justin, our guest, ordered his favorite meal, which included an entire lobster. My husband and I didn’t know how to break down a whole lobster so at that point, the manager came over, sat at our table and assisted in the process! In all my years, I have never seen such personalized service and kindness shown to a customer that really was in need of assistance. I highly recommend that you take your family to this restaurant and see for yourself the outstanding service offered by this crew of people! The kindness shown to us was beyond hospitality! It certainly was more like family! We wish you and all your staff a wonderful new year! Thank you again!“

“This particular location is our favorite place to go for flawless food! We've eaten here at least a dozen times and the food is always on point. We went at 2pm on Father's day this year, the waiting area and bar were completely full in addition to every table. We were told 30 minute wait but we're seated in 10 minutes. Watching the team they have here, work together to get through that was an absolute pleasure and the food? Fantastic. They never disappoint.“

“Best place ever to go ! We go there often and drive from east Tn to do it. We often go at Thanksgiving with family. Just wish there was a Golden Corral closer to Scott Co.“

“Great food and service.
My only complaint is about the TINY swivel-seat barstools.
We had a party of 4 and wanted to sit at the bar.
As soon as we sat down, we all looked at each other and said, “Uhhh, let’s get a table instead.”
We are average size people but these bar stool seats literally look like they’re made for children.
Very uncomfortable. I guarantee the bartenders must be losing out on lots of tips just because the barstools deter people from sitting at the actual bar.
I’ll be back (just not at the bar until they replace those barstools). #easyfix“

“It was our first time to Spankies and I can say we will definitely go back. Our waiter Decklan was very personable and attentive! All the food was amazing. And the fried green tomatoes were the best I've had! My daughter had the fried chicken kabobs. The chicken was very juicy. It was a great find with no wait. Decklan was the best waiter we've had in awhile.
I highly recommend this place!“

“Staff are Awesome. They are so friendly & make great food“

“When I heard about them using tallow, I had to try it out for the first time. Since then, they are my default quick stop for clean food in Cookeville. Burgers are great, fry's are great. Service is wonderful. Never had a problem with any order.“

“Awesome barbecue!!! Loved picking up an entire meal for dinner and got my husband banana pudding for dessert.. can’t beat that! Everything was delicious.“

“Excellent service. Pleasant waitresses. All around great experience. The guy manager (not sure if more then one,since visiting from out of state) was absolutely FANTASTIC! My daughter injured her toe in North Carolina 5 days ago & as she was scooting into the booth she bumped it, causing it to start bleeding again. He went & got us stuff to wrap it with. Thank you 😊 so much.“

“I was looking for a quick bite on my way home. After craving fish. Ordered. The two piece dinner with a beverage and a side. To my surprise the food came out immediately. Got my Dr Pepper fountain drink and plastic utensels. The place was clean and free of debri.lots of seating space. The table had paper towels on a rool. The fish was fairly large portions,average non greasy breading the fish was firm with no fishey odor. The side of coleslaw was also fresh with no old refrigerator smell. An added bonus was a hushpuppy and two small condiments of tarter sauce. The one thing they could do without was the left over fryer crunchy bits.under the fish.overall it was very tasty and filled me up for the ride home.“
