Ethan, Rufus, and I took a road trip north to the coal region today to visit Jimmy's Quick Lunch …read more My son and I barely fit at the table and had our legs tangled a few times, but what a great experience! They offer 3 types of Dietz & Watson hotdogs. 1/5 (5 to a pound jumbo franks -- spicy and jalapeño & cheese) and the traditional size. The fried onions I now know, I want on everything for my next visit! They were fried up by a magician, who got great Caramelization action where it counted! We both agreed the chili topping was aces . I'll be ordering the chili cheese fries with caramelized onions on my next visit. The sauerkraut was very good and generously topped the jumbo frank. We really enjoyed our lunch and all the hotdogs. I would prefer more color and cook on the actual frank. The place was packed for lunch and they staff was working their collective rear ends off, so that's a pass. When I ordered a plain dog to go for Rufus, the waitress gave me 3 "doggie dogs" no bun for him. What a sweet gesture for a pup from out of town! It was worth the hike up 309; spending the day with my son made it duly a wonderful day. Meanwhile, Rufus had a full day and is now in his burrito blanket snoring . #rushieeats #lvhdas

Hot Dog Johnny's is the kind of roadside stop you root for…read more We came across Hot Dog Johnny's on a Sunday afternoon while heading home from a weekend away, and the sign caught our attention right away. Open for 80 years and owned by the same family, that alone was enough to pull us in. Classic roadside diner feel, big hot dog sign, and a simple, no-nonsense menu: a handful of hot dog options, fries, pickles, a house root beer, and milkshakes. We ordered to go so we could get back on the road. Three hot dogs and two orders of fries, which honestly was more than enough fries for all three of us. The hot dog was solid and satisfying, exactly what you want on a road stop, and the real win here was the value. Our entire order came out to a little over $17, which feels almost unheard of these days. This is a true mom-and-pop spot doing things the way they always have, keeping prices fair and doors open for the community. We were glad we stopped and happy to support a place like this. If you appreciate old-school diners, simple food, and great value, Hot Dog Johnny's is worth pulling over for.

Let me start by saying that I love this place, but lets get the negative out of the way first, this…read moreplace could use some remodeling or some thing along those lines. It looks like it is in a bit of disrepair and the menu looks 30 years old. Now for the good. The food is great here. The food is nothing fancy, but if you are looking for a burger, steak sandwich or a hoagie this is the place to go. My wife that is a vegetarian loves the cheese sub. Also when you order a whole hoagie here you get a big sandwich. The prices are also very reasonable very easy to feed a family here for less that $20. The workers here are also very friendly and accommodating with special request, and if you are in a hurry like I usually am to get home from work you can call the order in advance. I am not sure why this is in the Pizza category however, they only have french bread Pizza, I would say that it is more a sandwich shop.

The staff insists that "it's well worth the wait," but the real question is: is waiting over an hour for food truly worth it? After placing our breakfast order around 10:40 AM, we eagerly anticipated a plate of fluffy pancakes and crispy bacon, but alas, time marched on. In fact, it marched so slowly that I'm convinced we slipped into an alternate universe, where time doesn't exist and food is just a mythical creature. By 11:45 AM, we were staring at the menu again, now featuring lunch items, and questioning whether breakfast is merely a figment of our imaginations. To make matters worse, the entire experience felt like a tourist trap--no pun intended--where dreams and appetites go to die. You know it's bad when you start contemplating whether the omelet and pancakes you ordered actually requires a passport to arrive. By leaving time (6pm) we contemplated making a pit stop on our way back to see if they were finally prepping our breakfast, we had resigned ourselves to the cold reality of gnawing on our own disappointment. Don't get me wrong; I appreciate a good mystery, but I didn't sign up for "Where's My Breakfast?" as the main feature of my day. So, if you're looking for a place where you can enjoy a leisurely meal that may or may not arrive before dinner service, this gem is for you. But for me? I'll be sticking to an actual looking glass, where at least I know the reflection of my breakfast is not just a cruel joke. Never again. Nope. Edit** we walked down the road to Antonio's pizza, the place was packed but Magee to find one empty table. Upon sitting down our order was taken within 2min. Our food then took 10min until it came out. We were blown away! Antonio's for the win!

Our food came out hot and fresh. Pj fries tasted exactly as I expected; enough Old Bay that it was like eating Chickie and Pete fries. The smash burger tacos were really good. A little bit greasy, I would have pressed some of the grease out if I was working the grill but it had good flavor. Overall I'd try other items on the menu if I was in the area again.
