4/3/2024:

You guys really just gave me 5 1/2 cheese bites, 3 nuggets, and a half stirred Milkshake, huh? Was definitely not expecting the mouthful of vanilla when I took my first sip of chocolate milkshake.

~ 2023:

Editing my old review instead of deleting and reposting because I think it's an important side by side comparison. I've come here 3 times in the past 5 weeks and placed the same order each time. "A 2 chicken quesadilla tray, 1 side chicken nuggets, 1 side fries, and a Reese Cheesecake Milkshake for the drink." I have received 3 different orders each time.

1st: I got 2 cheese quesadillas instead of chicken and an extra drink (sweet tea).

2nd time: I got cheese bites instead of fries and a Cheesecake Milkshake (no Reese's).

3rd time, tonight: I got burnt fries and a Reese's Milkshake (no Cheesecake).

I've also been charged 2 different prices across these 3 visits ($10-something the 1st and 2nd time and $9.62 tonight). This has gotten to be ridiculous. You guys no longer read back the order to make sure it's right. And tonight I stuck around to try to tell the lady my order was wrong and she wouldn't even open the window so I could talk to her after I got my order. Please retrain your staff. I'll be going to Dairy Queen for the next couple of weeks. I hope you get your act together soon. ~ 2020:

Love my Reese's Cheesecake Milkshake! Milkshakes are fast but be prepared to wait a little while if you come...

I gave this a one based off customer service. I was in the drive thru and it was at least 15 cars in the drive thru so you know music is playing motors are running and so on... nevertheless the person taking my order was getting a little aggravated because they could not hear what I was saying and let me point this out as well Their speakers are not the best because I could barely hear him too. Anyhow, he was being very rude cutting me off not allowing me to finish what I'm saying so once I yelled into the microphone about him being rude all of a sudden he stopped talking for a while and someone else got on the mic. When I approached the window I asked to speak to the manager. His name was Antonio, needless to say Antonio was very nonchalant when I complained about his employees. Seems like cookout need to better their staff. He only said okay when I said I don't like how the guy talk to me and I don't like how he was being rude and cutting me off. Never an apology only the word okay. Antonio was not rude with me but he is definitely not management material. I even told him that I was going to write a bad review and do you think he tried to do anything for me not to, no the only thing he said was okay even to that. I've never known anyone to be especially a manager to be okay with someone standing in their face telling them that they're going to give them a bad review. Who does that.. Oh-oh cookout on the corner of Union and...

First off, let me start by saying that my experience at this cookout location was simply fantastic. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by friendly and attentive staff who welcomed me with a big smile and upbeat attitude. The customer service at this location is on point - staff are knowledgeable, prompt, and empathetic to all customer needs.

As for the food, let me just say that it exceeded my expectations. The menu is extensive, offering a wide range of traditional American fare like burgers, hot dogs, and barbecue sandwiches. If you're looking for something that's quick and tasty, I would definitely recommend trying their delicious shakes! No matter what you're in the mood for, you won't be disappointed by the juicy burgers and savory side dishes at this location.

What I loved most about the cookout on Union road, however, was the atmosphere. The seating area is spacious with plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the lovely weather, and the ambiance is relaxed and inviting. It's the perfect spot to hang out with friends or family and enjoy a delicious meal while soaking up the sunshine.

In conclusion, the cookout on Union road is a must-visit location for anyone in the Gastonia area looking for a great dining experience. The service, food, and atmosphere are all top-notch, and the menu selection caters to all tastes and preferences. Give it a try, and I guarantee you'll leave satisfied and planning...

UPDATE: 4/21/24 This place really just sucks. Just shut it down already. Its been at least an entire year since I've been here. The chicken on the grilled sandwich was sooooo black it tasted like an old ash tray. YOU REALLY SHOULD BE ASHAMED STEALING PEOPLE'S MONEY BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT IT IS, THEFT!!! Because this trash is inedible. All I'm going to say other than to please cook the meat is make sure you include the entire order. If someone pays for something, it stands to reason it's only fair they get it. Spent about $45, missing about $15 worth of food but it took so long to get it going back wasn't even worth it.

10/15/2023 I got the worst hugh puppies ever, they were burnt so bad they left burn marks in styrofoam.. they were literally like concrete. Never again. 4/10/2023 Update was 4 stars, but last 2 times I've been in a week two major things were left out of the order. Something went wrong somewhere, somebody's getting too blunted or cannot read read plus had to give order just like the people in front twice. Somebody's high.. 11/2022 Always solid experience no matter which one you visit. Cookout has this thing called "continuity".
