    Guy running the place was nice, but the hotdog was overpriced and just sad. The fried onions on top was the best part.

    Great food! Saw them near the post office in Vacaville and decided to give them a shot. Very glad I did. Great chili dog!

    We realized we'd never had Five Guys and always wanted to, so we decided to try them on our way out…read moreof town. When we got there, all the employees greeted us, which we liked. Customer service hasn't been what it used to, so it was a nice gesture. The decor reminded me of In-N-Out, with its vintage feel. We both decided on the classic combo with the little burger, fries, and a drink. As we were waiting for our food, the place started getting very busy, and we were glad we got a spot to sit in. Once your food was done we were given our food in a bag. We were a little puzzled but decided to just use the bag as a tray to put the food on. The "little burger and fries" were not little to us and we were both glad we didn't upgrade anything to something bigger. The burgers were really good, just a little too much bun. We were pleasantly surprised that mushrooms and sautéed onions came on the burger, even though some might not like that. The fries were very crispy and hot which my husband loved. Everything was really good, but my husband noticed on an ad that they fry their fries in peanut oil. I have a slight issue with peanut oil, but some people could be really allergic. They should definitely let people know before they order. All in all, we will definitely be back again in the future. The employees were nice, the business was clean, and the food was good. Just be aware if you have a peanut allergy that they use peanut oil to cook.

    Came here for dinner and the food was tasty per usual but I LOVED Angelo and Krystal's customer…read moreservice!! Made me feel super welcome and I'll for sure be coming back. If I lived closer their vibe alone would make me become a regular :) forgot to get a picture of my burger because it looked too good but just know it was 10/10!!

    My first time at this location and I like that you can go inside and order, have a seat inside and…read moreuse restroom too. Hubby and I came by for a snack after a visit to hospital close by. We order to all American hot dogs, large diet cherry limeade and a small tropical cream slush. Our server came out pretty quickly with our food and enough napkins. We ate there and it was a good snack before our drive home. Nice to know this is a good location to stop on the way home. The inside was clean and well lit too.

    My son and I came to Sonic after his doctor's appointment for lunch. We chose here today…read morespecifically abuse the parking lot is also a "park and ride" with 5 EV level 2 chargers, so I was able to charge my EV while eating here. Ordering is simple. If you park your car in the drive/in spot, you can place your order through the menu kiosk which is available at each spot. If you rather order at the building and eat at one of the few table inside or outside, there is an order kiosk inside and one outside. The food is delivered to you by an employee. They used to roller skate out to your car to deliver your food, but I noticed the 2 people delivering food that day did not roller skate. I got the Double Sonic Smash Burger and it was very good with nice seasoning. My son got the Supersonic Double Cheeseburger and Strawberry Shake (my son really love their shakes). Overall rating: -Food: 4/5 -Ordering: 3/5 easy ordering through the kiosk, but the one inside the building was missing the menu, so unless you know what you want to order, there is no reference. -Service/Food Delivery: 2/5 because they lost the nostalgia of the roller skater delivering your food.

    Fire Craft - The Big Back

    Happy to report that Vacaville's got an excellent option for hot dogs, hot links, chili dogs, and…read moreweekend specialty brisket. I was craving a solid chili dog and googled options in town, decided to hit up Fire Craft for the memorably-named "Big Back". My partner tagged along and ordered the Texan. The Big Back lives up to its name--there's a lot of meat on that bun--but every level of flavor hits. I swapped the jalapeño cheese sausage for a Louisiana hot link, and its flavor (enhanced by their signature "dirty water" seasoning) worked well together with a solid chili. Naturally, the brisket was the pièce de résistance--a great topping to stack on. The owner explained that the Big Back combines the sausage, chili and brisket of his friends' favorite orders all into one, and they work great together. The Texan (not pictured--we ate it too fast!) was arguably even tastier. The flavors were bright, likely on account of the candied bacon (not too sweet) and the unique cranberry sauce topping. Combined with the banana peppers and high-quality, all-beef frank, this made for a tasty, memorable, and uncommon flavored hot dog. Both glizzys were well-built and could be eaten standing, which we did immediately back at the car. We felt the menu is well-priced--more expensive weekend items like the Big Back came with a lot of satisfaction and satiety. And speaking to atmosphere, the owner is just a friendly, kind guy. He and another worker were kind and welcoming, serving us with the last two hot-dog buns they had, then gifting us a free bread pudding each. And wow was the bread pudding good--delicious, not too sweet, filling and a great way to cap a protein and fat-heavy meal. Highly recommend this entrepreneur and the delicious product of his hard work. Hope folks reading this drive over next Saturday and make a line down the block!
