The kraut dog with ketchup and onions
Adam D.

Every bite of food at least of ease is amazing! No matter what item you get it is very tasty and and the best version of that item. The service is quick and the meal is handled the care. Also, The ambiance is rustic and classic. Feels like a small diner with a coffee shop feeling. Highly recommend it!

If you miss the OG Kasper's (Kasper's with a K, one of a kind) on Telegraph in Oakland, Lisa V's is a hidden gem at the edge of Concord that reminds you of the OG restaurant. A friend and I were looking for a place that grills hot dogs or sausages like Top Dog in Berkeley. Our search popped up with Lisa V's even though they do not grill the hot dog so we headed out to try. We were both pleasantly surprised. I had two traditional hot dogs with relish, chopped onions, chopped tomatoes and mustard which made it easy to eat. I also had potato salad which is homemade and tasty. My friend had a hot dog with sauerkraut and a taco. I thought the taco was unusual for a hot dog restaurant but my friend said the taco had really good flavor and the meat was tender. He said for it not being a Taqueria it was a nicely constructed taco. The hot dogs have a little bit of a snap when you bite, a tinge more of spice than a Casper's (with a C) hot dog, good flavor, perfectly steamed bun and perfect blend on condiments. For a great hot dog, this the place to east of the Caldecott Tunnel. To fill that hood hot dog craving, Lisa V's won't disappoint.

Where is the chili on the chili dog?

Lisa's has been my favorite place since high school was many years ago. My son grew up on them as well. It started as Lisa's house of hot dogs and is now Lisa V's. It has been a minute since we have been there. Git chili dogs today. Very surprised to see the very limited amount of chili given and canned poor flavor. Not the chili dogs that we know and have loved for over 30 years. Very disappointing. I also was amazed that they are requiring the customer to pay extra for not paying with cash. She said she " can't afford to pay the credit card charges anymore". That is the cost of doing business. You can't expect us to be alright with being charged 3.5% extra to Pay for the product we are purchasing from you to cover your credit card fees. Doesn't seem like a huge amount at all, but the principal is large. Cash is the least used form of currency. Charging me for not using it is ridiculous. Sadly, This may be the last time we support her and her business.

potato salad

We have lived here forever and never got around to trying this place, so finally got around to it. The food is good and simple. No indoor dining yet due to the pandemic. Basic menu, but you get what you expect. As mentioned, the hot dog is a bit thin, but they do pile on the toppings. The potato salad was good and fresh. The chili nachos were laden with goodies and spicy from the jalapenos. The California burrito was big and flavorful. Overall, a good place to grab a quick bite.

What is in their California burrito?

I read that the cookies are GF which is exciting! Is there any other gluten free options?

I had a day off from work today and I had this place on my radar. I heard about a special promo…read morethey are running until the end of this week for free fries, so what perfect time to give it a try. I came at opening, so I didn't have to wait in line. I ordered via the Kiosk, but the fries had me scan a QR code and answer some questions. After that, I waited for about 10 ish minutes before I got my food. The ladies were very nice and helpful, and they took care into preparing my food. Garden Burger: I enjoy the impossible meat when I can and this burger was huge. Besides the patty, I also got avocado, the other standard fixings and a fried eggplant. They also had mayo and bbq sauce as my spread. I don't know how, but I was able to eat the whole thing in one setting. It was juicy (as juicy an impossible burger can be) and delicious. The sauce held everything together and the extra spicy mayo I used for dipping brought the extra heat I needed. Overall, a delicious burger. Bulgogi Fries: This was complementary due to their promo and this was a huge portion. They made the bulgogi meat fresh to order and the same with my fries. Their plating was phenomenal. Overall, the fries were crispy and the sauce and meat were delicious. Overall, I can see myself coming here again. I should try a normal burger or I can try their chicken burger next time.

I ordered the original burger and fries. Very tasty. Prices are average. Portion size was just…read moreright for me, but if you have a big appetite, this might be too small for you and you'll need to order more. Plenty of parking next to the park. This area has homeless, but it's fine during the day. The only issue I have with this place is the interior design and lighting. It's stale and unattractive with office lighting and horrible off-white colors. If they changed the aesthetic inside and make it more like an old-school burger joint, they would get a lot more business.

I'm an old fashion gal from the Generation X era ... Ive searched high and low in the Solano County…read moreareas for a good old fashioned made burger... In n Out is fair ,,, However I've reached my peak w/ them since I've had them more than many fingers could count . It was a Tuesday night ,,, Drove to Benecia looking for food to eat on 1st St . Thanking God Sailer Jack's was closed because I never would've found this jewel . So we walked down a few yards, saw the tannery building . Inside was this cute American food joint called CHAR's Hot Dogs ... It's a place where they make different types of burgers ( ANGUS BEEF ) , Hot dogs , Sandwiches , Fries , Onion Rings , Fried Zucchini etc etc ... This night my partner and I ordered 2 cheeseburgers loaded w/ cheddar cheese and a half order of fries ... Ladies & Gentleman CHAR's won me over ... Eureka,,, I've finally found a place with quality burgers etc and quality service ... The lady who took our order was extremely kind and polite. We waited at a table w/ a red & white checkerboard table cloth ... Our food was ready in 10 mins ... I gave compliment to the lady who took our order . She told us she hand packs each Pattie every morning to assure a quality tasting burger ... DEFINITELY returning when I have cravings for a American food joint . Next visit I'm ordering a juicy hot dog and fries . She said it's all beef !!! I Love this place ,,, Tell them the lady with the bald head an red glasses sent you over ... Two thumbs UP

The food was pretty good. The service was friendly and prompt. The vibe was super chill. There's…read morea bar next door, which kept them busy!
