The Original Texas Weiner! What an amazing Hot Dog!
Todd K.

I was passing through Plainfield and pulled up to Texas Weiner 1 and the lights were on and I had to stop. The first thing I noticed was how clean everything was inside. It would make my Italian grandmother proud. Just wow! Not many places take pride in their business but, it shows here. The hot dog was ordered as shown "1 Up and a small Pepsi". It was grilled to perfection by the muscle man behind the counter. Everybody was polite and I would come back again but next time order "Two Up!!!" Go and enjoy one of Plainfield New Jersey's finest dogs and they won't disappoint.

Well want to try another spot on this strip but it was closed ,So I ended up here . The place appeared very clean and updated . They had a very small menu , I ordered California Chesse burger , it was not flavorful or even fresh as they make it seem I didn't get raw onions like every Cailf burger I ever had ! The cook appeared Greek and the counter staff Spanish . Staff was easy to deal with but the burger is not good just ok a step up from Burger King . Price were not that great above average for the quality of food . One time visit for I !!!

Texas wiener hot dog with onions and chili
Donna R.

I've been coming to Texas Wiener since I was a kid.The CHILI HOT DOGS are just as I remember them. The hot dogs snap when u bite into them, the chili is thick and the onions are sweet... I always order two because one is never enough.. TEXAS WIENER IS A CASH ONLY PLACE! The area has changed over the years but not this Texas Wiener. The minute you walk in your eyes immediately go to the walls. There are pictures of the owner going back over 30 years. This place reminds me of a time warp..There are a few tables and a counter. I ate at the counter because I like talking with the staff.. The staff is very friendly, and when not busy always ready to reminisce about the old days. I don't drink soda so I decided to have a coffee. It was very good and it was made perfectly to my liking.... If you're looking for something fancy then this is not the place for you, but if you want a really good hotdog then by all means stop in for a couple of good dogs. Texas Wiener also makes cheeseburgers and other food. I haven't tried any of them because I come strictly for the chili dogs.. There is a metered parking lot 1 block before Texas Wiener on the same side.. I recommend coming during the day... I used to frequent the Texas Wiener on rt. 22 , but sadly like everything else that has closed. I will definitely be returning when I get my urge for a good hotdog .

Could anyone tell me if this is the same hot dog sauce recipe as Texas Weiner II which used to be on Route 22 in Green Brook? I've been going there for many years, since a kid, but as you know it closed.

I ran into the owner once, and the same guy owns both locations the one in Plainfield and the one on Route 22 so yes it is the same recipe

Food was very good. Authentic smokehouse bbq. The brisket was mouth watering, tender and moist…read more The smoked pastrami and pulled pork was good too. My only advice is get there a little before dinner time as they run out of food.

This smoke house is on fire! Loved the food, attention and atmosphere!…read moreAs soon as I entered the place I knew it was going to be a real experience; the decor is rustic but cheerful; I was intrigued by the different barbecue sauce containers displayed all over and their home made pickles offerings. The place is veteran owned and has been in business for a while! All the choices on the menu are mouth watering good! After serious consideration we settled on sharing the Trinity platter which came with brisket, spare ribs and sausage links. We opted out of the sausage and upgraded the platter with pastrami. The Texas Trinity platter also comes with choices of pickles, one small sized side, we had Mac and Cheese, and 2 rolls. The portions were satisfying and good to share. The meats, oh my! All were smoked and cooked to perfection! Moist, juicy, and tender! Even better, they were seasoned so well there is no need for the also perfect sauces they offer! What an amazing experience at Red White n Que Smoke House! From the friendly and attentive service to their amazing smoked meats! All was top notch real at this place! Check it out, it will not dissapoint!

We had a great experience from start to finish. Lindsey, our server, was both knowledgeable and…read moreincredibly sweet, making sure we felt taken care of throughout the meal. Felix, the manager, handled a minor issue with professionalism and urgency, which we truly appreciated. What stood out the most, though, was the owner, Larry, who took the time to personally visit our table. We learned so much about him--he's been with Texas Roadhouse for 16 years and has owned this location for the past 10. Hearing about his commitment to the community, including donations to North Plainfield High School and the challenges he overcame during COVID, was truly inspiring. You could feel his passion and dedication--it honestly gave us chills. It's rare to see that level of care and commitment to giving back. That clearly seems to be Larry's motto, and it shows. Definitely a place worth visiting. 5 stars!

Shameful to say but you must know but I've been twice and gotten the chicken breast entree and it's quite good and tasty! Their chili is also really great and hearty. I would also say to keep a lookout for their early bird specials for deals because those can be cost effective. But yeah, it's relatively affordable, friendly atmosphere. Pretty good overall. Service is friendly and attentive. Will definitely be a regular spot.

A Peruvian BBQ joint in Plainfield?…read more I can't believe I am the first to write a review about this place.... The food here is ah-freaking-mazing! Might I add that it is reasonably priced? You get half of a whole succulent melt-in-your-mouth chicken that has been roasted and bbq'd to perfection, a TON of thick fresh cut fries, AND a side salad with their own made from scratch house dressing ( which looks like a creamy cillatro dressing)...for around $9 !!! Don't order this and think that you are going to share it with another person just because it is a lot of food...you are going to try to eat it all. This is just the tip of the iceberg...they have a large variety of Peruvian tasty treats to offer. Come here with a big appetite...you won't be dissapointed. The staff is so nice and customer friendly...and they have live music on some days. This place definitely gets a "nom,nom,nom".....

My favorite Peruvian restaurant! Now I have gone to…read moredifferent Peruvian restaurants since I can remember with my family as I'm obviously Peruvian . And this is easily the best one and the one we love the most, Punto Peruano is cuter but in flavor? Doesn't come close. Literally always ask for the pollo la brasa with EXTRA sauces every birthday because it's my favorite thing to eat and it always comes out good every single time. They've moved like 3 times I think and I've followed them each time lol they are just so worth it. If you want real Peruvian food made by real Peruvian, try it! Cuz here's some tea I found out, a lot of these Peruvians places DONT even have Peruvians cooking the food???? Does not make sense and this place DOES! Please give it a try, I promise you won't regret it
