This is a classic of WNY, Texas Hots and Greek Food. All cooked fresh to order in a place that's a bit to tiny but holds up well. Honestly you should go and have one, small places like this are harder to find and well worth it. read more

Seneca Texas Red Hots - a hot dog and a donut - Hot Dogs Near Me - Buffalo, New York

My favorite Texas red hots restaurant. Stopped here for lunch and was promptly seated by the hostess who was friendly and attentive. Ordered a western sandwich with orange juice which were promptly served. The restaurant has an open cooking area in view of the dining room which allows you to confirm that it is very clean and sanitary. Will certainly return as their menu is extensive and very reasonably priced. This location also features a drive thru if you would rather not go inside. read more

Seneca Texas Red Hots - Chicke souvlaki - Hot Dogs Near Me - Buffalo, New York

New ownership seems be an improvement. Stopped by the drive thru. Ordered cheeseburgers up and a chocolate milkshake. Food came out piping hot an wrapped nicely in tinfoil (nice touch compared to the previous paper wrapping). Food traveled well ten minutes away. My favorite Texas sauce in WNY. Solid milkshake too. read more

Got a gyro Slovakia and let me tell yah this was delicious, very well presented and well worth the price. I think overall the building needs a bit renovation but with how the economy is it's understandable. Support your local businesses read more

Stopped in because we ended up in the neighborhood...we ate in. The girl at the counter was so sweet and the gentleman that cooked our food really cared. We ordered everything custom and it was perfect and delicious. read more

I got my second dose of the Covid vaccine yesterday. Woke up with a slightly sore arm. My wife got the shot and it wiped her out. It's over 24 hours after the vaccines. She still has no energy, alternates between chills and feverish, and has leg cramps. My wife has no comorbidities, and exercises daily. She is not overweight. I decided that I would visit Seneca Texas Red Hots for lunch today. My wife was asleep, but she doesn't like Texas Red Hots, so I went alone. I ordered 2 dogs with everything and a Pepsi. I paid with credit. They wouldn't let me eat inside the restaurant, so I ate my feast outdoors. It was 16 degrees. Loving life, my peoples! read more

Use to go here all the time for breakfast. Best pancakes!! Then covid after they reopening they were on a limited menu. Now I saw they are now serving breakfast again so me and my friend were so excited to get the pancakes again!! Went there yesterday what a disappointment!! Idk WTF the pancakes were made from but they were absolutely disgusting! My over easy eggs were more like over hard. The home fries had zero flavor! Idk if there are new owners or what but it's not the same don't waste your money going there. read more

#1 TEXAS HOTS What is it about us Buffalonians and our love affair with hot dogs covered in mustard, onions and Texas sauce (ground beef and special spices)? The whole world knows we're married to those hot, crispy chicken wings covered in hot sauce (which weird outsiders refer to as "buffalo wings") and we undeniably flaunt that relationship in the public eye, but I suppose the Texas Hot is our dirty, skanky mistress, whom is unfortunately remanded to a life of sneaky late nights and drunken stupors, low-key social engagements and bad decisions. And while chicken wings enjoy fine dining in the lap of luxury with us, the Texas Hots' best pleasure is a parked car in an alleyway, a warm take-out box and our sticky fingers, and all with the hope that we may eventually leave our long time chicken wing spouses and finally start a new life with our true love: those greasy, sloppy slime dogs. SENECA HOTS HELPS ME NOT TO BE ASHAMED OF MY FEELINGS ANYMORE. The Texas sauce recipe Seneca Hots uses has been the epitome of the word "craving" for decades. Three generations of my family now can't get enough of it. The good news is we don't have to because they sell it by the quart and pint, it freezes well and reheats to its original perfection. So, you can make your own hot dogs at home with the sauce... Or use it for french fry dipping.. or dress up cheeseburgers with it.. or throw it in an omelette.. or toss it on your Cheerios.. or condition your hair with it.. I'd appreciate it if they made the hot dog switch to Sahlen's, but whatever hot dog it is they use proves to be an appropriate vehicle for that spicy, smooth sauce they sling. Like I said, take the sauce home and use it on your hot dog of choice at will. In close, head on over to "The Line" for the best Texas Hots in town, where they're but 5 get 1 free (which is a fine appetizer if you ask me), and don't forget to take a pint of sauce home as well. Then, tell your chicken wing wife/husband to pack his/her bags and get out! read more

Honestly I'm very surprised on how this place has a 4 star rating, everytime I go there the waitresses or person at the drive through window is rude af and clearly does not give a damn about anything and the food is basically garbage, only time I will eat here is if I'm blackout hammered. read more

I'm not one that usually judges on the interior of a restaurant. My theory is if the food is good, who cares what it looks like inside. But this place caused me to break my rule. It was absolutely disgusting. Before we even entered the front door windows were covered in fingerprints and grime, so much so my 13 year old niece commented. As soon as you enter you smell stale, stagnant grease in the air. There were 3 un-bussed tables on our side of the place that remained that way most of our meal. The ceiling tiles looked like they had been there since the place was built. They were yellow (from grease and/or cigarette smoke from back in the day) and littered with water stains. Putting up new ones wouldn't cost very much and would make a world of difference. Also, do yourself a favor and don't stare too hard at the "fuzz" covered air vents in the ceiling. On to the food. I got 2 dogs with sauce, a fry, and a drink ($8.59) They were good. I'm on the fence about the sauce though. I'm partial to johnnies or AJs in Jamestown, NY, but I continue to try different Texas sauces. This place's was edible, but it didn't hit the spot like the 2 aforementioned. My niece got a double cheeseburger and the patties were no thicker than a fast food burger patty, but they were raw in the middle and chewy. Chewy like rubber. She didn't even swallow her first bite. We told the waitress and she remedied it quickly with 2 hot dogs. I really tried to give this place a chance, but until they hose the inside and outside down with bleach I won't be back. read more

Seneca Texas Red Hots - Hot Dogs Near Me - Buffalo, New York

What a joke Seneca Red Hots has become....They now have waitresses...Ok.....To me, the job of a waitress is to get what you need, and to convey to the cook how you want your food prepared....Well I've grown tired of hot dog places giving me a hot dog that is barely cooked....It's a hot dog, I want it hot ! Plus I also like a little charring /browning of the dog as well.... Anyways, I went in there yesterday morning. I asked for two texas hots with cheese, and order of fries, and a chocolate shake. I asked that the dogs be cooked well done....Well in a minute or two she brought me my shake, and then about a minute or two after that I got my food....I thought, "how could the hot dogs be cooked well done so fast?"....So when she gave me my food I asked her if the dogs were well done....She said " yepp".... Well I ate a couple of fries of which is anyone with any kind of appetite goes here you will have to order two orders...They were like $1.89 per order, and in a kid -like portion.... Well, then I decided to take a few fries, and move some texas sauce to see the dogs because from what I saw of the ends of the dogs sticking out they did not look cooked....Well what did I find ? Low, and behold a hot dog that looked raw...Not only was it not well done but it didn't even have any kinds of brown marks on it what so ever.....What a joke....A total outright lie by the waitress... Of course I said something to her to which she replied something like "well he put cheese on it"....I was so mad I got up and left.....The cook even said something to her like don't bother like he could even care less....She even had the audacity to ask me if I was going to pay for the food....What a joke.... Two stars only because I have gone there since I was a little kid over 30 years ago, and the sauce is good....But I think I am done with them.... They also don't accept credit cards....But they do have an atm machine in the restaurant ready to charge you probably two dollars for your meal purchase....I hate when places do that.... read more

the service there is usually good but today we were there getting food and when we pull up to the window to get the food and pay the worker noticed we had a dog so without asking decided to hand the dog a whole entire hotdog which the dog (that isnt mine, dog sitting) puked up about 5 seconds later in the car and the workers saw what was happening and didn't say a word until I called her out to which she just kept saying "ok" , no sorry or anything just gave us the food and went on with their shift, terrible service by her and if I got her name I would have filed an official complaint read more

Nice place, good food, good service. One drawback though..the air quality is awful. You walk out smelling like grease and eyes burning. They must turn off vent hoods. I'm only writing this review because I'd like to frequent this place as it's close by and the prices are good. Hopefully they see this and turn on the fans. read more

I came here after being downtown visiting local buffalo bars. The greeting I got was lackluster and I feel like the waitresses wanted us out ASAP. Not a big fan. No matter what time of night, I feel like a waitress should never be openly disrespectful. Tbh we weren't even that drunk, it honestly was a real shame. read more

All was good but the girl with pigtails cannot waitress for the life of her.. threatened us of what our food was .. after she gave attitude to us for a to go order.. always love sobo Texas hots but no more because of that read more

Killer dogs! Nothing like them on the entire east coast! (Except Louies of course) The burgers are great with the sauce and of course...dont forget your side of sauce with your french fries!! read more

I grew up in South Buffalo. I've eaten at this location more times than I can count. It's a late nite paradise for drunks and stoners lol. The sauce is still king. It makes everything taste better. It's still the same as it was when I was a kid. What has changed though? The portions have gotten smaller and the prices have gotten higher. I don't go there that much anymore because I just can't justify the prices. Example: Their Open Beef Souvlaki was always something I loved but now it's just lettuce with a few pieces of beef and even worse one olive! lol It is a shadow of its former self. I could go a few blocks to Olive Branch and get 3 times a much for the same price. It's just a common sense decision. The burgers are nothing more than cheap burgers and bun with some sauce. I don't see why they are the price they are. Even the hotdogs are expensive without reason. The fries...well they've always been small and greasy but they're made for dipping in the sauce...duh! I get the feeling they are just relying on that sauce, which is damned good, but.......... pssssst.....I know the recipe and I can make it myself now. read more

Such a run down place. Go here if you like dust. This place grossed me out and I would never eat here again. This place should be shut down by the health department it's so terrible. What's even in the sauce?? You're better off going to Burger King across the street or just starve. This place is awful!! read more

Good old THots! You really have to grow up in the area eating these dogs to understand that they have their own distinct place in the world. Are the dogs delicious? My childhood self says yes all day every day. Adult self, not impressed. The sauce, or slime as others have so lovingly named it, not too shabby! Since moving out of the area it does appear as though the restaurant is trying to broaden their horizons with other than hot dogs or burgers and fries with sauce. Those items I cannot comment on. The dogs are cheap, the rolls especially soft, the sauce extra...saucy...and the fries crispie and only to be enjoyed with a side sauce. That being said. There is no replacing THots. They are open twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, have a drive through window and food worth enjoying when everyone else is closed. So long as you are not expecting the best, and maybe have some Tums set aside for the special occasion, you'll be alright! read more

Best hot dog place (IMO) - but its the sauce is what really makes it so good. Just awesome. I can eat 6 easily they're so good. Fast service. Open 24 hrs. Its just great- go try it - you'll be glad you did. read more

This has been a family favorite for years! Delicious hot dogs and they have the best slime sauce ever! Heard the souvlaki is great too! Have yet to try it because the slime dogs are so good but definitely will. read more

Was coming home from my brothers last night and had a little late night hunger, so I stopped in for a dog. The place itself is a little old and run down. The person taking my order seemed a little off and it really was just a sad depressing vibe. The dog seemed like it was sitting around, and was basically just slapped together and rolled up in the wrap without concern for making it a mess. The texas sauce did have some good flavor, would probably only stop back after a night of drinking. Only to regret it the next day. read more

This might just be the worst place I have ever eaten! The hot dogs were terrible, the service was terrible and I can tell you I will NEVER eat here again! If you're looking for a good hot dog, fast service and some awesome fries head to your nearest TED'S! Do Not Eat Here unless it 4:00 AM, you've been drinking all night and you don't care what the food tastes like! Ps- I have never written a YELP review but had to this time! YUCK! read more

Let's be real here. I wasn't going here for prime rib and lobster tail. The food was good. For what it was. The set up is a bit confusing as it appears to be an order at the counter kind of place, but evidently they have table service. The food was hot, prepared how I asked for it and the girl who took my order (at the counter, but brought the food out), was very pleasant. I enjoyed my lunch, though it did seem to be a bit pricier than I remembered it being. read more

Best slime dog around and fresh fries.

I stop here every time I'm in Buffalo, the service sucks but 3 Hots with everything and Onion Rings......gotta get you some! read more
