Hot dog joint gets rated on the hot dog joint scale. I got the Chicago dog all the way with fries. Very delicious. Nice couple worked the kitchen and made my lunch with love and care. I'm not always in a hot dog mood, but when I am, you can't go wrong with Skoogies.

Fantastic! Parking is easy and staff were super nice and helpful. The hot dogs were great but honestly the fries were my favorite part (glad we ordered the large order). Extremely crispy and seasoned well. Food came out hot and ready in the blink of an eye. Def a place to grab a hot dog/fries for a quick stop if you're craving it! I ordered the chili dog and the chili was super classic. I would've smothered it in cheese and diced onions but we had to do some shopping after and I didn't want to subject any public toilets to me post-cheese.

A Rubin sandwich and fries

I would pass. I went because reviews were positive. Others said they believe there are new owners, that may make sense. I was disappointed. First the fountain drink machine was broke, paid for that but got a can of Diet Coke. No big deal but should have received a refund? Ordered a Rubin sandwich and it was the worst I ever had. Super cheap bread, no sauce, just plain bread. It's pretty hard to mess up a Rubin but they succeeded. I swear my coworkers roast beef sandwich was on winder bread. I wanted to like this place but the food was just poor. I was surprised because it was fairly busy with most ordering hot dogs. Guess that was my mistake. On a positive note, the workers were nice.

Chicago dog! The sport peppers are where it's at.

My co-worker brought in this amazing-looking egg salad sandwich for lunch and when I asked where it came from she said, "Skoogie's". I needed that sandwich, and headed there immediately after work, as they are only open 11-4. From the outside you get a beachside shake shack kinda vibe, and inside is all Chicago'ed out. I grew up watching WGN from Chicago, so I know the Empire Carpet phone number LOL There are a few tables as you enter and counter seating looking out the front window. The TV was loud as hell, with 2 old guys eating and watching it. Seems legit. The counter guy and the girl making the sandwiches were friendly and welcoming. I told them it was my first time and the guy pointed at the menu taped to the counter. I told him about the joyous egg salad and think he must have remembered the one he sold earlier because he smiled. I also ordered a Homewrecker with chili and onions, a dog with chili, cheese, and onions, and then pointed at the Chicago dog picture and said, "And one just like the picture! And a corndog." Before I could finish my Minute Maid lemonade, the nice girl handed me my bag with a smile. I can already tell I'll be back! Got the food home and bit into my pillowy, creamy egg salad sandwich. Bread so soft, flavor so mild, this is comfort food for sure. The corndog was a corndog. I think it was all-beef. You can't mess up a corndog. Later, my Chicago dog beckoned, and it was amazing! The pickle is mild, the sport peppers zingy, the tomato balancing it all out. Oh man, I need another one. Hubby's dogs were met with rave reviews, the sausage one firm and meaty and the beef dog just perfect. Chili was great, just the right amount of onion. He loves to eat the tubular meats, so we will definitely return.

Wow., what a hidden gem in MT-Pleasant! Tucked away behind Dunkin is this legendary Chicago style hot dog shop that not only has some of the best tasting dogs around the Charleston area. And some amazing friendly knowledgeable workers that some have been working here for over twenty years! This joint is very casual with some vintage Americana charm on the outside and the interior too. You can pretty much order your hotdog whichever way you tell them to make and with your choice of the small or larger size dogs....Side note: there is other food options on this simple menu and the hours are not friendly for you late night types but good for lunch and early afternoon only. Overall. It's my new goto fix for a quick yummy afternoon dog...kinda reminded me of some of the Midwest hole in the wall shops in Illinois/Indiana:)

Best Hotdogs in Charleston

I usually drive 45 minutes to get hotdogs from here! They honestly have the best hotdogs in Charleston! Great stop if you're on your way to Sullivans Island or IOP for drinks.

Reviews are largely positive. People praise the authentic Chicago-style hot dogs, crispy seasoned fries, and friendly and welcoming staff. The casual inviting atmosphere is also appreciated.

MOZZO DELI - FIVE STARS & THREE THUMBS UP!…read more I honestly can't believe I've been coming to Mozzo Deli in Mount Pleasant for YEARS and just realized I've never left these guys a review. So I'm definitely overdue -- and they deserve a great one! First off, the menu is HUGE. If you can't find something you want to eat here, I'm not sure anybody can help you. They have an incredible variety of sandwiches, build-your-own options, breakfast items, burgers, cheesesteaks and so much more. You could probably eat here every day for a month and still keep trying something different. My personal favourite is the Fusion sandwich. Let me tell you... after eating that thing, you walk out of Mozzo with a circus in your mouth! There's so much flavor going on, and somehow it all works together perfectly. It's the sandwich I keep coming back for. And then there are the CHIPS. I'm a bit of a chip fanatic, and Mozzo understands me. They have all kinds of unusual flavours -- Maui Onion, Funky Fusion and plenty of others. Grab a different bag every time and pair it with your sandwich. The Funky Fusion chips with the Fusion sandwich might be flavour overload, but I'm willing to take that risk. They also have a great selection of iced teas, a coffee station and refrigerators packed with cold drinks, so there are plenty of choices to go with your food. But what REALLY makes Mozzo special is the team. This place can get busy -- and for good reason -- but even when there's a line, these guys absolutely crank. There always seems to be a whole crew working behind the counter, and they operate like clockwork. Orders are moving, food is coming out, everyone knows what they're doing, and somehow they're still friendly while doing it. That says a lot about how well this place is managed. The manager is absolutely fantastic, the staff are always friendly, and after coming here for years, my wife and I are always treated like family. To me, that kind of service is every bit as important as the food. Great food. Huge selection. Fast service. Awesome staff. Great atmosphere. And enough sandwich-and-chip combinations to keep me entertained indefinitely. FIVE STARS & THREE THUMBS UP! If you're in Mount Pleasant and haven't tried Mozzo Deli yet, put it on your list. And try the Fusion. Just be prepared for the circus.

I had been wanting to try the Lobster Roll they were flaunting all over social so I made a plan to…read morego have lunch on the weekend. I will say right off the bat, we had a weird experience with service. It was definitely a one off situation because they were hosting a private party for a group later that day, but it could have been handled way better than it was. Our server was excellent though and was trying to be accomodating, but it seemed her hands were tied. More importantly, the Lobster Roll lives up to all the hype online. It was almost a cross between a CT and ME style because it still had a very light mayo base, but was then coated it warm butter as too. The combination worked perfectly and I would say it's better than some of the lobster rolls I just recently had in Boston. We started with the Fig & Brie melt and it was stellar as well. I wasn't sure what to expect, but the warm brie was served on top of a blueberry compote in a mini cast iron skillet. The they surrounded it with sliced baguette pieces to dip. There was only two of us but you could easily share this as an app with four. Next time I come back it will be difficult to order anything else because the food was that good.

When Adam's Kitchen showed up as a spot with Mediterranean offerings we decided to check it out. We got there just before their closing time and were prepared to order our food as takeout, but the people were friendly and welcoming and encouraged us to stay. We were too hungry to argue, and wow, did it turn out to be a lovely experience. The food was prepared fresh, came out quickly, and served with care and a friendly smile. My lamb gyro was perfect - served on warm, puffy pita with fresh veggies and a generous drizzle of tzatziki. My partner's chicken shawarma sandwich was equally tasty, but the crowning glory was the house-made baklava that was subtly enhanced with orange flower essence that elevated it to something truly special. We're here to visit the Charleston area for just a short time with so many things to do, but we're definitely making time to head back to Adam's kitchen before we leave for a stash of their to-die-for baklava, Dubai chocolate, and whatever other of their homemade treats strike our fancy. If you're in the Mt. Pleasant area and have a hankering for excellent Mediterranean food prepared and served up fresh by friendly people in a comfortable, laid-back atmosphere, you won't regret checking out this little gem of a restaurant!
