I can't describe the food quality here as anything more than a safe choice. It's basic, some parts bland, but you will get your fill and not hate life. - Spinach artichoke dip: Overall I was decently pleased with it. Solid flavor, enough dip to cover all the chips given. The tomatoes on top were something new to me. - Garlic parmesan fries: Likely my favorite part of the meal. Perfect taste, perfect flavor, fries came with the beautiful crisp we all know and love. Perhaps a simple plate, but hats off to the chef. Caesar salad: Lame AF. It was all dressing with wilting lettuce and about 6 stale croutons. A loss for me. - Simple Stack: Definitely lived up to its name. Simple on the eyes, even more simple to the taste buds. I felt like it lost flavor every bite, however, I finished it and felt good. - Stack N Blue: Tried a couple bites. Once a few onion ring strings were removed, the overall flavor got better. A step above basic would suit my feelings. The restaurant itself is very clean, very modern - an overall pleasure to dine in at. The service was close to as basic as the food, no pleasantries from our waitress. Don't get me wrong though, she took care of her tables and at least checked in on guests consistently.

Just Hot Dogs is basically a little walk-up shack with a drive-through that's been sitting in the same parking lot forever. Businesses around it have come and gone, but this place is still standing. It's a true little mom-and-pop type of spot. I think it's a couple running it, and every time I've been here they've been really nice. More importantly, the food has stayed consistent. They're known for their Chicago-style hot dogs with the poppy seed buns, but they have quite a bit more than just hot dogs. I've tried the roast beef, which comes with the dip, and their fries are really good. They taste like they're made fresh and I'm pretty sure they're hand-cut. They also have things like chocolate-covered bananas and Balboa bars. I got a chocolate-covered banana this time, they asked if I wanted nuts, wrapped it up in foil and had it ready to go. One little thing I really appreciated was that when I told them some of my order was to-go, they actually asked when I wanted them to make it so it wouldn't sit around and get soggy. It's such a small thing, but that's the kind of care you get at places like this. I've been here a few times now, and the quality has always been consistent. The prices are also really reasonable, which feels harder and harder to find nowadays. It has that old-school neighborhood donut-shop kind of feeling where you recognize that it's just a couple of people running their little business and doing their thing. I hope they stay around for a long time. Places like this are getting harder to find, and I'd much rather spend my money here than at another chain.

Polish Sausage taste very promising you have to come and try it out. It be a must to try.

Their cheeseburgers are still what I feel to be leagues better than local fast food chains in its area and their #1 combo is competitively priced that I also feels like it beats local fast food chains there. I do wish the menu pictures were more genuine to its products rather than if it feels like it was painted or drawn. But this is an extremely minor gripe.

I remember this place being around since I was in high school, so clearly they've been doing something right to stick around for this long. That being said, I'm only reviewing the breakfast burrito here, not any of their other food. And honestly, it was kind of just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. The burrito was pretty simple, just eggs, cheese, and bacon. Looking at it, it honestly reminded me of something I could make at home. The salsa and pico de gallo didn't really do much for me either. They were fine, but nothing that made the burrito stand out or added a whole lot of extra flavor. I will say, the staff and the people eating there were extremely friendly, which definitely made the experience more enjoyable. I can see why a local spot like this has been around for so long, especially when you have that kind of welcoming atmosphere and a loyal customer base. But if I'm specifically in the mood for a breakfast burrito, based on this experience, I'd probably go somewhere else. There are just too many breakfast burritos around OC that I enjoy more. Again, this review is only about the breakfast burrito, so I'm definitely not saying the rest of their menu isn't worth trying. I may have just picked the wrong thing. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing that made me want to come back specifically for the breakfast burrito. The friendly people were probably my favorite part of the experience.

Just the right flavor, texture, amount of batter/crust, etc. I'm sorry I waited a few weeks to post this, now I can't remember all the details. But it's like the old saying how you can't always remember what someone said or did but you can least remember how they made you feel. Well this food made me feel pretty good! LOL. My family and I raved about it the whole way to the HB airshow that weekend and were sad we hadn't ordered more. While I'm not into processed meats, I did take a bite out of the dirty dog my son ordered and that too was a winner! It was clearly gourmet, on some fancy French bread or some other higher class carb, not just some throw away bun from the Walmart next door heh. And had a generous topping of bacon as well. Again I apologize for my sparse description here. Another standout item was their drinks--tremendously refreshing, esp during a heat wave. I think every drink was packed with a bunch of freshly sliced lemons in a plastic tub, and I'm a sucker for tart. You could even refill it yourself days later to make your own lemonade heh. The takeaway here for me is that if I were to ever eat fish tacos anywhere else from now on, I will always compare them to the ones from here, and will probably just end up asking myself how soon can I make it back here. And a super nice lady manages the truck by the way, or rather, more like a mini school bus or shuttle that's been awesomely repurposed and psychedelically painted. :) May you stay in biz forever!
