    Sonoran
    Nina Isabel C.

    Amazing friendly and attentive service. We were greeted by every person working when we walked up! They have outdoor and indoor seating, we sat outside for the real hotdog stand experience (iykyk) - we ordered 2 aguas, 3 Sonoran hot dogs, and salshi papas. Aguas are the perfect agua not overly sweet and don't taste like they're made from a packet. Sonoran dogs are authentic. They have music playing but it's not too loud, and overall it's good vibes!

    Yo, this must be my 50th+ time at eating something from Lupita's. Back in the day, I used to live in the area and even after I moved away, one of my best friends remained within a mile of this location, so I'm always finding excuses to stop by. And that was basically the reason I was there Saturday night. Initially planning on hanging out at my buddies house, we pulled up and found out that he was fast asleep so decided to get a late night bite to eat and who better than Lupitas. If you're in the area, keep in mind that you need to have some street in you to pull up on this location after 10 PM. It's not dicey, just a bit hard to find and the parking lot is located in back of the establishment, so there's that. However, they stay open until 2 AM on weekends, which you cannot beat. And their selection is pretty broad with several key Mexican staples, but my go to is the namesake, which is the Sonoran style hot dog. It cannot be beat and is usually whipped up and handed to you within minutes of ordering. They also offer a nice selection of desserts with the strawberries and cream being one of my favorites. And they have several aqua Fresca's and I usually get the Limon. They do queue a pretty decent line, but they run two registers as well as to go orders. This is definitely a spot you want to visit over and over again.

    I don't know if I said this enough, but these are the BEST SONORAN dogs I've had in AZ. The buns are always nice and warm and toasted and the combination of all of the ingredients just hit right together . It's just so delicious! It's a must do for my friends when they come to Phoenix. The man behind the register is always so sweet and funny. You have park in the back and it's better than nothing. It's cute and quaint for what it is .

    We had just moved to Arizona and heard that we had to try a Sonora dog. We looked up the highest rated places on Yelp and headed to Lupita's. Our server was so sweet and made us feel comfortable as we practiced our few words of Spanish. The Sonora dog was really good. It included a bacon wrapped hotdog that included beans, onions, and tomatoes. At less than $6.00, it was well worth our drive and the price! The other diners were ordering things that made us want to come back.

    We are always game for chowing down on a Sonoran dog, the most delicious Mexican-inspired hot dog of all time. If you're looking for the best Sonoran dogs in Arizona, you should drop by Lupita's. Not your regular hot dog stand but it's a food tent. They have several chairs & tables inside of a large, enclosed tent located in a parking lot and only open in the evening. These Sonoran hot dogs have a layer of bacon wrapped around and grilled to perfection. They serve them in a bolillo-style hot dog bun and topped with pinto beans, tomato, chopped onion, cheese and topped with sauce. Yummy goodness! They boast an extensive condiment bar that includes various sauces, salsas, as well as fresh and marinated veggies to create a side dish to accompany your dog. Don't forget the sodas that are ice cold, in glass bottles. Posted a picture of the menu.

    Mid at best nothing special but I guess if you live on that side of town you have no other choice fries were cold and stale the best part of both hotdogs were the buns if you really want a an amazing Mexican style hotdogs this is not the place not even close this place definitely doesn't make my must have list at all

    Great food and price! Cash preferred for this business. Parking is located behind the building. Service was great. Will definitely be going back

    Okay the service we had was above and beyond even if we didn't speak Spanish! We preferred a variety of food items and they came out fresh and looked just like the photos! We a couple of the Sonoran dogs and they were packed full of flavor and we also got Elote and some cheese fried and boy we were in heaven! Don't forget the agua frescas!!! The set up outside was so relaxed and come as you are! Felt like we were in Mexico at a street vendor! Can't wait to go back!

    True hole in the wall with Mexican style hot dogs among countless other neat foods! I had a very quick impromptu meal here and was left very satisfied with my experience! I had trouble ordering food because I speak little to no Spanish and made things a little bit more complicated than I had to, but they were incredibly patient and kind with me. They grabbed who I assumed was the owner or manager to assist me and he seemed like he genuinely enjoyed helping me! Although I wasn't necessarily blown away by the food and it wasn't exactly inexpensive, it was still solid and very fun. I would definitely come back to try other foods. My experience with the workers, along with eating under some warm tents really made it for me.

    Went here this evening and absolutely loved it! Dined outside under the tent at their location just north of the actual restaurant. The staff was super friendly. Ordered a Sonoran Hot Dog and a side order of Chile Toreados. Both items were great! I will return

    What time do you open? It says 6:30 on yelp but Google says 5:30. I just sat there from 5:18pm thinking 12 minutes wasn't too long to wait in 106 degree heat but at 5:51 they were still not open and I left.

    They open and ready by 5:40

    Do they serve regular hotdogs?! Without the bacon?

    You can get as much or as little toppings as you would like. All you have to do is ask.

    What happened to this place - tent is empty?

    I think they are only open in the evenings. But I not been by there in awhile.

Where asking a question feels like you're interrupting someone's day. So today, when I took my son to Ted's Hot Dogs. This is a place I've been going to since the 1900s (as my kids love to remind me ). I didn't expect much. Things had changed since my childhood days, but the food had always remained good! I just missed the days when the same guy worked the grill and knew my name and my order by heart. But then, today... There was Karen. Yes, Karen!! Standing over a grill in 117° Arizona heat, she greeted us with patience, kindness, and an actual smile. She let my son take his time ordering without making him feel rushed. And when the ketchup was empty, she didn't shrug it off or point us in another direction. She didn't hand me a thousand little packets since the pump was empty. She simply took care of it. Was it just ketchup? Sure. But it also wasn't. It was someone choosing to care. When other patrons had notified other staff multiple times it was out - Karen found a simple solution without excuses! These days... that feels rare. We've spent years turning the name "Karen" into a punchline. But today, I met the kind of Karen the world could use a whole lot more of. If you're her manager and you're reading this... take good care of her. Promote her. Clone her if science ever figures that out. Because people like Karen don't just serve food - they create loyal customers who keep coming back!! In a world that tells us what a "Karen" is... be this Karen.

We waited in line to to order and after waiting about 25 minutes, we were helped. The cashier was stressing but was friendly. We ordered three traditional hot dogs with everything on top and a side of bacon cheese fries. Since it was national glizzy day, our hot dogs were supposed to be BOGO. We sat down and waited another 25 minutes until finally our buzzer beeped. We picked up our tray and noticed we were only given 5 hot dogs, not 6. We didn't mention anything just because we saw how busy it still was. The hot dogs were actually pretty good. They were a decent size and flavorful. We really liked the bacon fries and it was enough to share between us three. There was an employee keeping the tables clean and picking up trash - he was friendly. Will de be back to try out some more food!

We also all ordered an alcoholic or non-alcoholic drink. The speed which the food came out was perfect. The food tasted fresh and was delicious and we were all very pleased. I did talk to the gentlemen that worked there about their pickle chips that I felt could've had more breading and crunchy than they were. They can continue to make them the way they want and I'll still come back and have their dogs or their burgers cause they were delicious. I do believe that their dogs and their sausages were the highlight over the burgers.
