    Cajun hotdog Bacon Cheese hotdog
    Lori D.

    For those craving a real dog (not beef), stop on by this cool food truck attached to a taxi. It's right across from Cumberland Farms. This truck is seasonal, so catch them while you can! They have a few hotdog choices, but take notice, it is cash only. I went with the bacon cheese & the Cajun. Yes, if you're a full grown adult, you will need to purchase two for a fill up. The dogs are on the skinny side compared to a grote & wiegel (I'm showing my age). Nonetheless, they are satisfying. At first when seeing the sliced deli cheese, I was disappointed but hey, I do the same thing at home, so I knew it was still going to be good. For the Cajun, I went for the mild relish instead of hot, & it was great! Kinda wish I had more. The bacon was sliced not bits. That's a thumbs up for me. Each bite consists of bacon. I did notice condiments aren't readily available...I'm addicted to Ketchup. There is seating outside with umbrellas, but no tables. Do you really need them though. When I have another hankering, I'll be sure to head here.

    Orleans dog with added spicy chili.

    Oh man, there are no words to describe Top Dog. Actually there are... just an awesome simple steamed Thumann's hot dog, with a snapping casing that pops when you bit into it, with all the fresh homemade toppings, plus your choice of beverage served from a hot dog shaped trailer towed by a vintage yellow cab. You can put that into a TV ad jingle! However, if you are looking for a fancy hot dog with all the frills & glamour, toasted bun, bunch of toppings to choose from, etc... then this won't be the place for you. Top Dog keeps it simple by having a very limited menu with limited toppings to choose from; but everything here is homemade and fresh. I have not had a hot dog here I did not like. My favorite is the Cajun Dog all the way and the Kraut Dog with spicy mustard. This place is cash only! Make sure to bring bills $20 or smaller as they tend not to take larger bills.

    The sauerkraut here is homemade and you can tell...its great.

    Extremely disappointing and unprofessional experience…read more We contacted The Whey Station Food Truck on June 22, 2026, about catering our Jack & Jill event on September 5, 2026. Josh responded on July 6 confirming that they were available that day and said he would contact the brewery to work out the details. We provided the brewery contact information on July 8. After not hearing anything further, we followed up on July 24 to confirm the details. Josh did not respond until August 3, when he explained that they would only be able to serve our party and that, in order for it to make sense for them, there would need to be a minimum. We immediately asked what minimum he expected. It took another 14 days, until August 17, for Josh to tell us that his normal catering minimum was $850. We explained on August 19 that we were comfortable covering up to $400 and that, with approximately 100 guests, another food truck, and light appetizers, we expected the two trucks to handle the food for the event. At no point did Josh clearly tell us that he was declining the event, that our $400 offer was unacceptable, or that he considered the booking canceled. He also never told us that a deposit was required to confirm the booking or that, without one, he would not show up. Then, on September 5 (the actual day of our event) Josh and The Whey Station food truck simply did not show up. I called Josh when we realized the truck was not present, and he did not return our call. Instead, he eventually sent a message stating that he "never agreed to come," that a deposit had not been paid, and therefore the event was not contracted. Regardless of whether Josh personally considered the booking finalized, this is not an appropriate or professional way to handle a catering commitment. If he had concerns about the arrangement, disagreed with our proposed minimum, required a deposit, or did not intend to attend, he should have communicated that clearly before the event, especially after we had repeatedly followed up trying to finalize the details. The biggest issue isn't that we couldn't come to an agreement on the catering minimum. The issue is that he left us with the impression that the arrangements were still being worked out and then, without clearly telling us that he was not coming, no-called-no-showed on the day of a major event. For an event that had been discussed for more than two months, this was incredibly frustrating and put us in a very difficult position with our guests. We would not recommend The Whey Station based on this experience. Clear communication and timely confirmation are the bare minimum when dealing with someone's scheduled event. 2-3 week response times to emails are unacceptable.

Although they are still operating the kitchen out of a food truck we figured we'd go anyway to support the new location. We called in advance specifically to confirm the kitchen hours since we were about 30 minutes away. They told us the kitchen closes at 9pm. Perfect, we can make it - or so we thought. When we arrived around 8:40PM we headed to the bar and asked again to confirm that the kitchen was still open. She made it seem like it was and started handing us full menus. About 10 seconds later another woman said no, the kitchen has been closed. To find the kitchen closed early was frustrating to say the least - especially after confirming over the phone and driving all that way. Head of house answering the phones either need to be more aware of actual operating hours or the kitchen staff needs to stick to posted operating hours. I'm not sure who is at fault but it left a very bad taste in our mouths and I honestly don't plan on returning anytime soon.

    One of the worst customer service experiences I've ever had! I placed a very simple order (french…read morefries), and paid immediately upon doing so. As I stood on the sidewalk, waiting to receive my food, several other groups of people walked up, place their orders, and receive their food before me. I noticed that the cook who was working inside the food truck repeatedly pointing me out to his companion, and indicating that I needed to be served. None-the-less, my order was not called until the three couples behind me had received their order. When my name finally was called, and I walked up to the window to take my order, the gentleman taking orders immediately told me that I owed him five dollars. I informed him that I had already paid him, to which his response was "Me? Oh, you didn't pay me!" I had, in fact, paid him immediate;y upon placing the order, as previously stated. I reminded him that I had paid earlier, which he continued to deny, very rudely I might add. I even when so far as to check my pocket for the five dollar been I had been carrying when I placed my order... Just to make sure I didn't still have it. It was gone, as I had indeed given it to the gentleman in question when I placed my order. I received no apology from the man at the window, no did he offer me a refund. However, because I prefer to set a precedent that is beyond reproach, I told the gentleman he could keep my money and the food, and walked away, five dollar out, and hungry. My suspicion is that the gentleman working the window was being discriminatory. I an an LGBT student at Wesleyan University (the truck was on campus that night), and I am gay in a way that is one might describe as "overt." The man working the order window was clearly uncomfortable serving me, and as a result he all but refused to do so, until the gentleman he was working with insisted he give me my food. I also feel that he either forgot I had paid him (because he took so long to give me my food in the first place), or simply felt that he had the right to give me a hard time. I would never again patronize this business, and encourage others not to do so either. It was a terrible experience, and jarring to say the least.

That's how I first learned about @brickandbasil in Yantic. I visited several months ago, but forgot to post my review. There was a bit of a hiccup when I visited. I drove about 40 minutes to get there, and when I arrived, I learned that they were closed for their first ever private Baby Shower party. I was crushed. But this story has a rated PG Happy Ending. I called the restaurant and spoke to Amy. I explained that I had driven a ways and asked if they could make me a pizza to go. They didn't take long to tell me that they would make me the first pizza of the day before the shower got into Full Swing. I was grateful for their hospitality, and terrific wood-fired pizza. I was inside briefly. They have plenty of seating and a bar that with decor suggesting a love of music. I ordered the Mama Mia and ate a couple slices outside. It had sliced meatball, roasted red pepper, mozzarella and ricotta on a good chewy Wood Fired Crust. The ingredients were fresh and tasty. The red sauce had bright flavor. The ricotta was creamy and fluffy. Brick and Basil is well respected in pizza circles, and I can see why. It started as a food truck. But a food truck that starts with the word Brick, was bound to have a Brick and Mortar. And we're lucky they do. 5 Stars
