What a cool little drive in! I travel a lot for work (as those of you that follow my reviews know)…read moreand I really enjoy finding unique local places on my roadtrips. Dakota Drive In fit the bill! My order was a burger, fries, jalapeño poppers and a hot dog. The hot dog was okay. It would not be the reason for my return. It was fine but didn't stand out. Same with the cream cheese filled poppers. Personally I prefer cheddar filled but cream cheese is definitely more prevalent. The burger, however, excellent. Charred, juicy, medium well and a soft bun. Just outstanding in taste and texture. The shoestring fries were hot, crunchy and delightful. The kid taking my order was polite, prompt and friendly. A definitely plus. There's picnic table seating outside (it really is an old school drive in!) but I had mine to go. The menu is enormous so my next time through I'll have a burger, fries and try something else as well!

The burgers are thick and delicious. A great variety of items on the menu. So many nice cream treat…read morechoices. I just wish they weee open year round!

My daughter had the Plain Dogg. The Vienna Beef is good, and the bun is substantial. I had the Macky Cheese Dogg and the Frito Bandito Dogg. The Macky Cheese Dogg had mac and cheese with shredded cheese over the top. It was fine. The Frito Bandito Dogg has chili, shredded cheese, and crushed Frito chips on top. It was really good! The only drawback is no fountain pop... only cans. I'm a thirsty guy, haha! The service was good. The waiter takes your order at the till and delivers the doggs right to you. Overall, it was a great experience! We will be back!

If I recall correctly, dog prices vary from about $5-$8. I often love buying a hot dog but often feel some gut-regret shortly after. I've had no regrets yet with these. I've always been left feeling good about my purchase.

The won tons are very popular and they only prep so many, so be prepared in case they're out. I wish the fries came in a smaller size, because if you're ordering for yourself and want to add fries, it's too much food and too expensive at $9. It would be a different story if I was sharing them with 2-3 people. The wait time has varied, basically on how busy the beer hall is. I guess I've gone in not expecting it to be fast if it's busy. Today was very fast but I was also there at 11am.
