After driving past here one too many times, I had to stop by and see what the rave was about. There…read morewas always a line whenever I was just passing by. So this time, I decided to give Capt'n Franks a try. The Food: The food here, were just okay. Nothing to tell home about. Just quick, fast service that gets the job done if you're craving a good hot dog. I went with the Texas Dog, Kraut Dog and the Chili Cheese Dog. All of them tasted good. However, I did order a side of hush puppies. And, those were awful. No flavor in the batter whatsoever and no amount of dipping sauce could have saved it. The Service: Service was fast and easy. Wait in line, order at the front and they'll either deliver to your table or call your number. The Atmosphere: Nice beach vibes that gives a feeling like this is a hidden gem or a must-go too spot. Cool place with seating indoors and on the roof as well. Overall, a 3/5. I understand they're hot dogs, but there wasn't much of a wow factor I saw. Definitely give this a place a try though! All the combinations looked and sounded good.

Because we were seated at the bar, we had a good view of the grill and watched the cook adeptly cook the orders. It was kind of fun to watch. It was really too loud to talk much but the food came quickly and was delicious. I had a BLT and I enjoyed it very much. The portions were huge! I ended up taking half the sandwich home and had it for dinner. This is another hole in the wall place recommended by a local tour guide. It was a good find.

John's is up there with that now-defunct Tastee Freez in Coraopolis, PA as the best ice cream I've…read moreever had. I came here in the late-80s and it was great then, and is just as great today. The ice cream is easily 5+*, with my favorite being vanilla soft serve with cherry topping + malt powder (don't knock it til ya try it!) The reason I gave it only 4* is because we were charged $25 for a crab cake boat which wasn't very good. These were t lump crab cakes at a fancy restaurant, they were very basic ones from a corner drive-in with a few hushpuppies. I could understand $12 or even $15, but $25 was straight highway robbery.

We just can't handle a big lunch and wanted to avoid leftovers, so decided to split a pickle brined chicken sandwich with fries and an extra side of slaw. The sandwich was OK. To start with it needed more seasoning. How about breaking out the black pepper and garlic powder? The meat was uncharacteristically tough/chewy for chicken breast. I suggest they need to be pounding it to tenderize it and then brine it. It was actually hard for us to cut and eat. It really looked nice, but I think I am done with pickle brined chicken. It just never gets enough brine impact. They make good small caliber fries that were piping hot and the slaw was fine for me. Ms T did not care for it so I got it all. Our food was OK, not stellar. The service was excellent, but I still can't make this better than three stars. I hope to convince her to return for a burger during this trip.
