I had to try the famous dogs... they were big, great bun, and I LOVE the fact that you put on your own condiments at the next window (read: not from packets!!). Service was outstanding. Friendly. Clearly a source of family pride. It had that feel of the place we all know and love from our childhood. I regret only getting hot dogs as I really don't love skinless franks. I was praying for snap. But... they were good. I can't wait to try a burger or the famous clams. Next time - no dogs. All other things. I'm sure they'll be outstanding. Clearly they're doing something right.

If you're craving a classic, no-frills, absolutely perfect hot dog, Frankie's is the place to go…read more The dogs are grilled just right with that perfect snap, the buns are always fresh, and the toppings--whether you're into chili, onions, sauerkraut, or just classic mustard--are spot on every time. But it's not just about the dogs. Their fries are golden and crispy, the onion rings are addictive, and the milkshakes hit the spot. The whole menu delivers that nostalgic, satisfying, comfort-food goodness that keeps you coming back. Service is always friendly and quick, and the retro vibe gives the whole place a fun, laid-back feel. You can tell this place has been doing it right for years--and it shows. Frankie's really is the hot dog king, and once you try it, you'll totally understand why!

I remember back in the day when the Big Bacon Classic was huge and was served on a Kaiser Roll. Also, the prices for what you get are outrageous. It cost me over $14.00 for a BBC with a four piece nugget and a drink. The meal itself wasn't worth more than $6.00 max. As for the positives, the cashier was courteous, the burger builder took pride in her craft, and the restaurant was tidy, and I'll reiterate that the food quality has improved.

A Food Blogger friend from Waterbury recommended this truck. I was in the area and needed to kill…read more15 minutes so I visited. The person working, who I assume may have been Hugo, was very nice and helpful. They serve tacos, tortas, tamales, burritos, quesadillas, soups and salads. They listed various meats on the menu, but on this day, they only only had Pastor, Lengua (beef tongue) and shredded chicken. I ordered one taco of each and a Passion Fruit Agua Fresca. The tortillas were very good. Each taco came with cilantro, onions and a shredded mild cheese. They also gave me Salsas Rojo and Verde, and a white container that I assume was sour cream. I don't normally order chicken or Lengua, but I thought they were well executed. The pastor didn't seem like pastor. It tasted good, but it seemed more like a pork sausage. It was lacking that trademark pastor marinade flavor. The salsas were both good. Hugo's is definitely a legit taco truck and I would return. 4.5 Stars.

My order actually for drinks was a gallon sweet tea with a raspberry cherry ish soda. Alliyah Alecia Scott didnt grt either whar she ordered but got this token of disrespect. Beware all!...

Why: Everytime i…read morecome here, whether it be on break (ordering off the app) or on my free time off work ordering at the drive up , THEY NEVER HAVE ANY INGREDIENTS. I mean chicken sure, but the toppings and things that make the meal NOPE. Now hindsight, if you tell or at least take off unavailable items off the menu youd save ALOT of people money and a crappy experience. They charge full price for missing items on your order if you place it on app. No compensation for the inconvenience. Service/ Staff: RUDE, SARCASTIC, BOTHERED. God forbid you ask the staff anything, they seem to not want to do theyre job? Because of the simple fact i already had a horrid experience at this location, i tried to ask the staff (august 10th , @11-11:15am sunday) through the drive up if they had all the ingredients or if they were out of anything. "Yes we have everything" "okay do you have everything for the snack wrap" "- oh wait i think we're out of something, hold on let me check- we have no lettuce, we have no cheese" "... can we do wings?" "Sure how many?" "12 please, " "Classic or Boneless" "Regular classic" "we only serve the wings by eight" *pulls off* Food: I ordered a snack wrap and to compensate for no lettuce they packed the wrap with a bunch of mayo . Gross. Ambiance: Crap. Dont go here.

Place full of regulars--staff knew their names in fact. Word to the wise: dogs are huge! I probably shouldn't have ordered two, but I'm glad I did because they were so good.

We take this route to visit family often, so we will definitely stop next time we are passing through.

Another review I had meant to do earlier but forgot about until now (this time 3 weeks later)! So…read moreafter my last visit I had been meaning to write a review here but haven't for personal reasons. But since I'd just finished typing up a review for Blackie's, it was time to knock this one out too, especially once I had seen another review on here talk about the 5-piece tender meal. Oh. LET ME TELL YOU about the #7! On two separate occasions including that last visit, I have actually tried to order this only to be told they didn't have tenders! Now, normally this would not be a problem, but here's a teensy weensy detail I have yet to include. THEY DIDN'T TELL ME UNTIL AFTER I HAD ALREADY PAID FOR THE ORDER! Yep! You heard that right. You, the employees, have the audacity to hide that little detail from me until after I had already paid. I mean, yes, at least they offered me some kind of replacement whenever this was the case, but the fact that they didn't seem to notice until after completing the transaction tells me that either your employees are clueless or your establishment is run by swindlers and thieves. I ought to give you 1-star for that alone, but fortunately this place does at least have some redeeming qualities. For fast food chicken, the seasoning does always taste decent, and I've never had chicken served to me cold. There were like two times I threw up after eating, but this was out of a 15-year span, so I won't be too harsh there. The biscuits are also good and you could have these ones with anything you eat. I do find it smart that you need to actually be a customer to use the bathroom considering where this KFC is located. Also, anytime the #7 is actually available it's the best thing on the menu. Still, whoever thinks this customer service is okay needs to be fired. Oh, and while we're at it, please fire whoever in corporate decided it was a good idea to do away with wedges and replace them with Rookie Numbers fries all across the KFC chain. The wedges were fire and a million times better. *sigh* As long as I still live in Waterbury, this is my local KFC. Once I am out of Waterbury, this location will never see me again.
