    Bahn mi fries
    Jen M.

    I'm always down to try things related to bahn mi so when I heard there's bahn mi fries here I had to try it. Service was friendly; brats were great and came with many preset or customized meat and topping varieties; and bonus: this food truck is near the ferry, which is super convenient if you have some time to kill before leaving the island. Food wise, my friend got the classic brat with a local sauerkraut which he loved. He couldn't stop raving about how good the doughy pretzel bun was and how it made the brat so unique. I liked that you could either get a bahn mi brat or bahn mi fries with sliced brat - what I ultimately got and was not disappointed. Serving size was huge, ingredients were fresh and tasty and flavors complemented together well. After ordering, food was cooked to order and came out within 10 minutes. Yum. Will definitely return and recommend

    For $7.25 plus tax you can have all this.

    Very cool people and an interesting food truck. $7.25 for a basic hotdog is pretty crazy to me but I wanted to try out a new spot so I need to suck it up a bit. Tater tot meal that I ordered. Looks pretty good though.

    Build a brat and the Thirsty Crab are the 1-2 punch that South Whidbey needed. Looking for a spot to bring friends and grab some tasty beer and extravagant bratwursts? Look no further. The outdoor seating of the Thirsty Crab combined with the wafting aromatics of Build a Brat are what make this place so perfect. My wife got the Seattle Dog, and I got the Reuben dog, both of which are such creative concoctions that would wow the tastebuds of any bratwurst connoisseur. Would definitely recommend the "Firecracker Sauerkraut" as well. The staff at both establishments are super friendly and give great suggestions! We will be coming back here a lot this summer!

    Chili dog!!! Great chili.

    This is a great place to pick up a very-customizable brat or hotdog. And the people are so freakin' nice. My wife and I love coming here in the afternoon and having a beer or two, sitting in the shade or sun and eating a great brat served up by an awesome crew. The atmosphere is jovial with people all enjoying beer and such, sitting around a fire pit, or under the covered patio. What a great find on south Whidbey Island.

    Not sure why this place says temporarily closed. It's clearly not…read more We are from out of town and came by for something quick and easy. This place is located in a mall type building and I was impressed with the setup and inviting atmosphere. We ordered waffle fries, northwest chili dog and harbor dog with bratwurst. They were both impressive, hard to find a decent hotdog spot in WA state that suits my pallet. I gave it a 4 star review due to the chili possibly being not made in house. It tastes like Nalley chili, but i have nothing against it. I think one who has chili dogs on the menu can possibly make a killer chili. Maybe it's house made? Not sure, i forgot to ask. Service was great. The person who took our order was nice and patient since it was our first time there.

    We had lunch there today for the first time. Both of our hotdogs were good and the fries were…read morereally good, too. The reasons I probably wouldn't go back anytime soon are 1) I don't really wanna spend that much on a hotdog and more importantly 2) they had two large fans on - the kind you might put in your garage if you just painted it and you wanna speed up the drying process. The fans were kind of noisy which meant that when people were ordering their food they had to talk very loudly - and that's just not the kind of ambience I'm looking for when I go out to eat. Granted, it's a hot dog place, not a French restaurant - but I'm just saying I don't like to be around people who are yelling when I'm eating.

Sizzle Dogs is a small booth outside the store, and Andre, the guy who is running it is the kind of friendly, enthusiastic human who makes you feel like your lunch should be a special journey. Just a super friendly dude. I got a Seattle dog and, on his recommendation, a Polish dog - which I also topped with BBQ sauce on his recommendation.That Polish dog absolutely ruled. Smoky, messy, and way more delicious than a hardware-adjacent hot dog has any right to be. Good prices, great vibes, and genuinely excellent dogs. If you come for home improvement supplies then eat here and leave with improved happiness. It tastes better than a self help book

My daughter who just learned to order her own hotdog, loves coming here and ordering her own dog. She finds herself to be a big girl now, and the person who owns the stand is always so kind and nice to her. Not to mention the hot dogs are delicious, hot and the service is super quick! Everything is super clean and neat, and I love the options of all the condiments that you can add to the dog. Every flavor for every person! I know you are probably going to Lowes for home stuff, but don't forget to stop by and grab a dog from this guy! Sometimes, my daughter and I go by just for a hotdog!

Portions are tiny (think salad served on a teacup saucer), and they clearly cut corners on ingredients. Most dishes are bulked up with cheap fillers like rice, with barely any meat or vegetables. The names of the dishes have nothing to do with what is actually served. The food looks nothing like what you would get at any other restaurant. At best, it resembles something you might have been served in a Communist-era Budapest factory canteen in the 1980s. Owner does not take criticism well, I think she is tired and just gave up. Wake up: you will never bring the business back by cutting cost on ingredients and by serving lazy pre-cooked food. There is a market for good Hungarian food but you are just giving it a bad reputation, a disgrace.
