A Definitive Ranking Of Costco's Food Court Menu

The Italian sausage was excessively charred, and the roasted peppers and onions were wayyyy too mushy. It's cheap ($2.79), but definitely not worth the 610 calories. May be a different story if the sausage weren't so burnt...?

I was excited to try this one—the description on the board makes it sound like a fancy (Costco fancy, that is) turkey sandwich: "Oven browned turkey, provolone, red onions, tomatoes, basil garlic mayonnaise on a toasted torta roll."

In reality, though, this is a basic sandwich that you'd be better off making yourself at home. It's dry and just...not worth it. Skip!

Okay, honestly, this frozen yogurt is good, but it's...just...so vanilla. If you're going to indulge in Costco's popular treat, at least get one of the other options that add a little ~flair~ to the dessert. You can get vanilla frozen yogurt anywhere.

It's fine, but nothing remarkable. It's a berry smoothie, with emphasis on the strawberries. The ice wasn't quite blended enough, so it tasted a bit more like a strawberry slush than smoothie, but the flavor is good overall.

Costco says the smoothie has four servings of fruit. This would be a good option for sipping as you're shopping (and to wash down all the samples)!

First of all, the churro is CRAZY long, especially for just $1. This one is soft on the inside and fairly crispy on the outside. I wish there was more cinnamon covering it, and I reaaaally wish there was something to dip it in!

This summer, when you're sick of your normal iced coffee (does that happen??) and are down for a sweet treat, this is it. The Cold Brew Mocha Freeze is pretty much exactly what it sounds like—a frozen cold brew, PLUS you can add chocolate to it (which I recommend)!

As mentioned above, Costco's vanilla soft serve is actually really good...especially when swirled with the chain's acai (which tastes more like acai-flavored soft serve than traditional acai). This is refreshing and a perfect treat for hot summer days.

What you see is what you get...this is a basic chicken caesar salad. It comes with an excessive amount of dressing, but it's pretty thin and light. Maybe start with half and see if you want to add more? I would have liked some sort of crunch going on here...(I think it's supposed to come with croutons)?!

Remember when I said the plain vanilla soft serve is good, but you can get that anywhere? Truth be told, you can get a strawberry sundae most ice cream places, too, but probably not for $1.65.

I loved the chunks of actual strawberries in here and that it wasn't just made with a strawberry-flavored syrup. TBH, I would probably plan a trip to Costco for this dessert alone.

Ahhhh, the Costco hot dog. At just $1.50 WITH a 20 oz. soda, it's easy to see the appeal here. As someone who has a strict "Only Eats Hot Dogs At The Ballpark" policy, even I was pleased with this one.

You can add relish, onions, ketchup, and mustard, too. SORRY everyone, I'm boring and skipped the relish and onions. Sue me.

The chicken bake is basically a glorified Hot Pocket—if a Hot Pocket were twice as long and way fluffier. It tastes like a croissant with crispy asiago cheese on top, and I am HERE for it.

Inside, there's chicken breast, cheese, bacon, and caesar dressing, which is a fairly random but decidedly delicious combo. Come hungry for this one or plan to split it with your Costco buddy, because it's HUGE.

@COSTCO! I am so impressed. That presentation, though! As previously mentioned, the acai at Costco is definitely more in the realm of frozen yogurt than die-hard acai fans are used to. I personally did not have a problem with it—you just have to know this is Costco's attempt at being healthier, and look at ALL that fruit!

That's more fresh fruit than I have ever seen on an acai bowl, for sure. The Costco shoppers on a Sunday afternoon were generally either eating this or the pizza...so it's definitely a hit!

You can get Costco's pizza by the slice, but I watched a bunch of people carry out an entire box...and I get it! The slices are huge and the pizza is super soft and dough-y, which sometimes is a problem, but Costco makes it work.

It's also very cheesy, especially the plain cheese (duh), and the pepperonis have a nice lil' spice to them. The combo slice is topped with sausage, pepperoni, green pepper, red onion, mushrooms, and olives, and it's filling + satisfying. The pizza is ALWAYS a good option!
