We typically always order the New York style hot dogs - mustard, onions, chili, and pickles. The potato salad which reminds me of my mother's. They do have other options for lunch and breakfast.

My best comparison is that it tasted like a hotdog you'd get at the concession stand at a high school football game. The hotdog looked and tasted like a standard Oscar Meyer, the bun like Wonderbread, there was almost no chili on it. They truly made no effort to make it taste good. My wife got a Chicago dog. I'm not sure any part of it resembled a true Chicago dog. The fries were McDonald's style, They were OK but not quite as good as McDonalds. My wife asked for cheese on hers. They slapped a piece of American cheese over top the fries. That's a first for me. The only good part of the experience came at the end. We were waiting for our check (no one told us you have to go up front) when a younger waitress came over and was very friendly, as was the owner who was there at the counter. The bill came in at an affordable price too. I don't enjoy giving such poor reviews, but I don't think it matters here. These guys obviously have a loyal, regular clientele. They cater to them and not intruders like us.

One menu item included a trio of mac & cheese, baked beans, and coleslaw. If you are a vegetarian, you will likely be able to find something to eat here. We will definitely stop back here if we're in the area again!

The corn dog had a crunchy panko coating, ranch-dressing drizzle, bacon crumbles, and scallions.

The menu is basic, but should include something for everyone. Hot dogs, burgers, fish, fries and soup. You can customize your dogs with a variety of styles. They also have combo meals which are a really great deal for all the food that you get. My go to order is combo one which is two hot dogs, fries and a drink. With tax it comes to around $11. Everything is made to order and always fresh. My kids both love their chili and soup (they almost always have italian wedding available). They also have really tasty milkshakes. Service is friendly and efficient (even when you have random customizations like having your hot dog on top of your fries instead of on the bun). The inside is basic (what more do you need from a hot dog joint) and also very clean every time I've been there. A great place for a quick and affordable bite.
