Take Out Star - About Us

Where we started food delivery...

Founded in Dothan, Alabama at the begining of 2012 by 4 highschool friends out of the Enterprise class of 95', TakeOut Star has been connecting area residents with delivery of your favorite meals from your favorite hometown restaurants. Beginning with Dothan we have expanded to cities throughout the Wiregrass area. From Dothan, AL to Columbus, GA and Panama City, FL to Troy and Enterprise, AL. We facilitate delivery to your home or office, 7 days a week, with a fast and experienced delivery team from the best restaurants near you, including local staples like Annie Pearls Home Cooking, Dante's Pizza, Mom's Family Restaurant, Cutts Restaurant and LaBama's Mexican restaurants. As well as national brands Beef O' Brady's, Friday's and Firehouse Subs to name a few.  We also provide corporate catering meal services for groups of 2 to 500 (or more), with a quick and easy way to order.

Why we started a food delivery service...

As we watched the Ironbowl back in 2011, we realized no one had brought any food to the festivities.  No worries, we'll order some Pizza or Chinese I had thought. To our surprise, we were out of luck and had to drive to a store. Over the next couple months I had learned two things. First, after a visit to Boston for a wedding, I learned that some new services offered delivery from many different restaurants. And second was, that all the chinese places in Dothan were no longer delivering. Which left Papa J's as my only option. We reached out to these new services and got in contact with the higher ups. Then we asked "How do we get y'all to come here?  We can help or even fanchise, we just want you here."  Well some laughed, some offered advice, but all said nope, no way "this is only for the biggest of cities" and yours just ain't worth it. So we spent the next 6 months researching and studying their services to figure out what they do. Once we had the basics, we built one ourselves and launched in 2012. Because we wanted delivery and Dothan deserved delivery. 

Growing with food delivery...

We have expanded, but we are proud to say we are not a franchise; every location is locally owned and operated by someone in that community. By supporting local business you support our communities. We partner with our local restaurants to help ensure they are getting value for their service, and to keep prices lower for the customer, while ensuring our drivers are compensated fairly.
