First off, the only sign they have is three photos of a polish dog, hot link, or vegan dog all with relish and onions. The first three order, then we ask for two polish dogs, one with no relish just onions, and the two guys get really defensive, and start mansplaining that we're ordering incorrectly, we should order a NAKED dog. Hands us one dog with no onions, and we say we want onions, and they go "Bro I should just be SERVING not EXPLAINING" and we're like ??? Whatever. One dog down, meat and onions only. Next one, we ask for one regular polish dog and they start yelling about a Seattle dog vs a Naked dog and we have to be clearer if we wanted cream cheese and they complain some more to us not knowing how to order and when was it ever this difficult to just order a $6 hot dog on a late Saturday night!?!? Not everyone likes cream cheese on their freaking hot dogs or knows the proper hot dog terminology we just want food!!! JFC.... Needless to say, there doesn't seem to be anything particularly special about this one hot dog stand, out of the dozens within a square mile in Capitol Hill. Do yourself a favor and avoid getting lectured in how to properly order a hot dog and go get the same exact thing from any of the other stands, since they pretty much taste the same.

My coworker got the chicken cheesesteak with regular tots and I got a beef cheesesteak on a gluten free bun. Portions are huge, food tastes great, and they were quick. The only thing that could have made this any better is if they ever offered cheez whiz, but it was still excellent. Check the website's schedule since the truck bounces around, but when it's downtown it's at McGraw Square across the street from Bartells.

I didn't realize it until later and it wasn't enough really for either wings or fries. It was my fault to not check or ask about their special sauce, but apparently you can buy them by the bottle.

The Westlake Park Food Truck Pod is convenient and easy to access once you're downtown. Located right by Westlake Center, the four, rotating trucks are parked right in the park by the outdoor seating area. There are also some trucks along the curb of the park. Trucks are usually here during weekday lunch hours, but some will be available in the evening. The truck schedule is usually accurate on seattlefoodtruck.com for Westlake Park, so I usually check out the site before making my way. And it gets a pretty good crowd of visitors and those who work in the area, especially for more popular trucks. Visiting in the summertime for some live music, too! I'm glad to have this option so close to where I work. For when I wanna go outside and eat al fresco, I know where to turn to.

Jack's BBQ is a staple Washington chain known for their Central Texas-style BBQ. They have…read morelocations in South Lake Union (SLU), SODO, Columbia Tower, Bellevue/Redmond, Algona, Lakewood, and Federal Way. I have been to both their SLU and SODO locations. Their claim to fame is that "BBQ Sauce isn't needed - the meat is amazingly delicious!" However, they always provide BBQ sauce at the table and sell bottles of their BBQ sauce to take home, so not entirely sure how much they believe in their saying... On my most recent visit to the SLU location, a large group of co-workers and I went out for a celebratory occasion and ordered the: - SMOKED SWEET TEA ($4.50) - smoked brown sugar, simple syrup, and iced tea. This also comes as a cocktail with vodka ($14.50). This drink was honestly just alright and I probably wouldn't get it again personally. It had a slightly savory and smoky after taste, but kind of tasted like you just put a few drops of liquid smoke in the drink. - BUTTERMILK HUSHPUPPIES ($9) - golden brown and piping hot (like literally straight out of the fryer!) served with tartar sauce and honey butter. While they were super fresh and hot hot hot, they were a bit too dense for my preference. It was worth a try, but I would just stick with the regular buttermilk cornbread instead. - LONESTAR FRIES LOADED WITH QUESO AND BEEF BACON ($14.50) - french fries coated in velveta cheese with crumbles of bacon on top. One of my co-workers wanted to give this a try, so wasn't my choice or pick, but this appetizer was also pretty rich and dense. I also would not order this again as I found it too salty. - PICNIC ($98 - enough for four or more people to share!) - brisket, ribs, sausage, pulled pork, chicken, white bread, homemade pickles, jalapeños, and four sides. For sides, we chose the REMOULADE COLESLAW, BUTTERMILK CORNBREAD, QUESO MAC N CHEESE, and SWEET CORN PUDDING. Because there were 8+ of us, we upgraded the side sizes to 12-oz for $8, as part of the picnic deal. We additionally got a side of WAGYU BRISKET (a Wednesday-only special). - BRISKET/ WAGYU BRISKET - tasty, but surprisingly was on the drier side. I don't know if I really could tell the difference between the Wagyu and their normal brisket. I was expecting a much more moist piece of meat, but seemed kind of lean. - RIBS - these were my favorite in the basket. Sweet, juicy, and falls right off the bone! - SAUSAGE - they give you two types to try - spicy and cheese-filled. The spicy has jalapeño in it and definitely has a small kick. The cheese-filled is mild and slightly saltier. - PULLED PORK - also on the saltier side, but at least it's relatively moist and pre-shredded. - CHICKEN - mostly dark meat (which is my preference), but can't say there's really anything special about their marinade. Nothing to write home about here. - REMOULADE COLESLAW - your standard shredded cabbage coated in a sweet and slightly peppery and tangy mayonaise dressing. No complaints here. - BUTTERMILK CORNBREAD - this side is an ABSOLUTE MUST. My co-workers and I were blown away by how good the cornbread was here. It comes with a dollop (more like a scoop) of butter drizzled with honey, but even on it's own, it was absolutely amazing. It was crunchy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside, like a good cake. - QUESO MAC N CHEESE - This side was evidently rich, but less rich than the Lonestar fries. It was creamy, savory, and came with a sprinkle of breadcrumbs on top. I liked that they used spiral macaroni as opposed to your typical half tube macaroni as it gave more texture and chew to the dish. - SWEET CORN PUDDING - I thought I would've liked this one more, but similar to the hush puppies, this dish was also too dense for my liking. However, it was a nice and sweet complement to the mostly savory dishes otherwise. **TLDR- for mains sides (as I've basically tried them all at both locations), I would recommend the ribs, buttermilk cornbread, remoulade coleslaw, Gramma's collard greens, and mustardy potato salad.** For dessert, we ordered one of everything off the menu and honestly, dessert was 10/10!: - PEACH COBBLER & ICE CREAM FOR TWO ($12) - this cobbler was fantastic. It was moist, gooey, and had the perfect amount of sweetness. It was served warm and the ice cream just melted right into it! - PECAN PIE -1996 TEXAS STATE FAIR CHAMP, ALA MODE ($9.50) - this pie was fantastic too. It was sticky, chewy, buttery, and everything a good pecan pie should be. No wonder it was a prize-winning dessert! - BANANA PUDDING WITH NILLA WAFERS ($6.50) - this pudding was creamy, rich, and full of bananas and whipped cream with strong notes of vanilla. The nilla wafers offered a nice crunch and love how they crumbled some on top of the pudding too! Service was wonderful and we got our food within 20 minutes after ordering. The atmosphere is casual and family-friendly. Overall: 4/5 for food, 4/5 for service, 4/5 for atmosphere

I'll admit, I'm a tough critic when it comes to BBQ because I make my own, while my wife handles…read morethe sides and desserts. So we definitely have our preferences when it comes to good BBQ. I ordered the Double Trouble ($35.99) with brisket and ribs. We received three pork ribs and about 2 1/2 slices of brisket. The brisket had a nice smoke ring, but unfortunately it was dry. Since we ordered later in the evening, it may have simply been toward the end of the night and the brisket had been sitting for a while. The ribs were just okay. They weren't fall-off-the-bone tender, which doesn't bother me, but they were missing some flavor. The BBQ sauce actually saved the meats. It added some much-needed moisture to the brisket and gave the ribs a better flavor. The combo came with your choice of 2 sides, my wife picked collard greens and cornbread. I also added another order of collard greens ($6.49), ranch beans ($6.49), and the bread mix with white bread, pickled onions, homemade pickles, and jalapeños. The collard greens and ranch beans were both good, and I really liked the pickled onions and homemade pickles. My wife wasn't a fan of the cornbread because it was extremely sweet, she said it was more like cake than cornbread. For dessert, we ordered the Peach Cobbler ($13.99). It came baked in its own individual tin, but it wasn't what we expected. The flavor was okay, but the center was very doughy and seemed like it may have needed more time in the oven. Overall, the sides were the strongest part of the meal. Unfortunately, when I'm ordering BBQ, the meat has to be the star, and the brisket and ribs just didn't do it for us. Not terrible by any means, but based on this meal, it wouldn't be at the top of my list for BBQ.
