“The burritos are great. I just visited again and ordered enchiladas. I won't do that again. I watched him assemble the cold ingredients in the styrofoam tray and stick it in the microwave. I took it to go and ate at home, otherwise I would have given it back. It was not good. Will stick to burritos from now on.”

“We went to the Ally Cat for drinks and dinner on Saturday. Cant say enough good things about our visit! Food was great (fried baloney sandwich and the dorito taco salad) and the beer selection was awesome! Jessica at the bar was awesome as well! Great vibes! We will be back!”

“Wow! Just came from Anastasia's Speak Easy for our Anniversary Dinner, and we had a wonderful evening! Food was excellent and the Sugar Cookie Martini was absolutely out of this world! Service was extraordinary, and Kim was more than happy to answer questions and was very friendly. This is my go-to for a unique and relaxed experience. Congratulations on a lovely restaurant!”

“My wife and I drive 1.5 hrs after seeing on the news. I wish we lived closer, best atmosphere and the friendliness folks. Beer was cold, Pinto beans and cheese were delicious, I’ll be honest the hotdog was good however I wasn’t a fan of the chili. Did I mention the cheese was delicious? Even bought some to take home! Will definitely stop by whenever in the area.”

“Little country store located on forty west. At the edge of Rocky Mount headed toward Ferrum. Gas prices are average. There is lottery, tobacco, and beer available here. They no longer have a deli. The lady at the counter said they haven't served food there in about 2 years.”

“It's 2025, I have 0 expectations for any corporate fast food restaurant these days. You get what you get, and you don't get upset!

And yet, the DQ in Rocky Mount surpassed any expectations I WOULD have! Quick, kind, efficient service. Good, fresh, hot food and an ice cold freeze to top it off! Totally unexpected! Thank you!”

“Me and my fiance ate here for lunch today, did a mobile piçkup order and is our first time trying Jersey Mike's. It did not disappoint!!!! I will no longer be going to subway, Jersey Mike's all day. The employees were kind and professional and made sure I had my chipotle mayo and ranch. Keep doing what y'all are doing!!! It is fantastic. Would attach pictures but we already have them ate!! Haha”

“We recently used El Rio’s catering services. I highly recommend! The food was delicious and there was plenty left over. We chose the taco bar option for a 21st bday gathering and it was perfect! I did my homework and price checked and for the amount of food and condiments it the best price!”

“good crust consistent quality and fresh ingredients”

“Always fast and fresh. Shrimp anything is great. Fried rice always good as well as vegetables. My favorites: shrimp and vegetables and their house soup.”

“Stopped at Bojangles in Rocky Mount while up here in the Virginia mountains and this may honestly be one of the best Bojangles experiences I’ve ever had. The place was clean, the staff was genuinely friendly, and the food came out fast and fresh like it was straight out of a commercial. The biscuits were perfect, the fries were crispy, and the chicken had that legendary Bojangles crunch that makes you question every other fast food place 😆

What really stood out though was the atmosphere. There’s just something about grabbing hot Bojangles in the mountains after a long drive that hits different. Everybody working there seemed to actually care, which is getting rare these days. You could tell the team took pride in what they were doing.

If you’re anywhere near Rocky Mount and craving comfort food, sweet tea, and a little Southern happiness, this Bojangles absolutely delivers. 10/10. Would happily drive out of the way to stop here again.”

“The chicken tender basket with gravy was so good but the price was ridiculously high!! Close to $10 for it😳😳😳😳!!! It was my granddaughter that wanted it!! Grammy had to eat with her( share hers)so we could get ice cream cones after!!!”

“The whole place is spotless, which makes the meal even more enjoyable. Our waitress was fantastic: super friendly, quick, and checked on us just the right amount time. I recommend.😊”

“Nice Place To Go Later In The Night When Everything Else Is Closed But Last Night The Person Working The Window Dropped My Change (didn't even offer to get it or say anything about it) Then Return's To Say It's Going To Be Another 10 Minutes Due To Giving The Person Before Me My Order, The Individual Working The Window At The Time Didn't Seem To Be Paying Attention Service Was Definitely Not As Good As Other COOK-OUT Location's. (👎👎 For First Person Working Window) Another Worker Showed Us Proper Service Once He Recognized The Original Window Person's Lack Of Hospitality And Concern For Customers Order. (👍 👍 For Second Worker)”

“They served me coffee with a bug in it...Then only refunded coffee and not meal purchased with it....I wasn't gonna eat no nuggets and fries after a bug in coffee...The bag was left in fridge, being a consumer who uses wheelchair, I had difficulties bringing coffee in, and they never answered phone...Happened on 06/28/2025....I HAVE PICS OF BUG FLOATING IN MY COFFEE THAT I SPIT BACK....WISH I COULD POST ON HERE,BUT IT'S ON MY FACEBOOK PAGE👀👀#CHECKCOMMENTUNDERPOSTFOR PICS”
