It was a good sized meal for an adult, but not ridiculously huge. There's a kids' menu too. It's a trailer right by a large restaurant & very close to the freeway, so it's easy if you're out & about. I'll go back again!

My mind was set on this as I haven't had it in probably more than 10 years until I discovered California Hot Dogs on Yelp. After a short drive, I found them, located right off of the 101. I called it in and as soon as I walked in, my food was ready. I will say that they do have a drive thru which is convenient. I ordered the Coney Island Dog, the LA Street Dog and a side of tater tot's. Everything was delicious and I probably killed 1/4 of the tater tot's on the drive home. They were hot, crispy and seasoned. Will definitely be back.

Positives: Boba was…read moreexcellent, it was chewy and well-cooked. Drinks were not too sweet unlike some other boba places. You can actually taste the tea rather than just cream or milk. Negatives: Not enough ice. Drinks were made wrong and additive was also wrong. Overall: Thought that it's a little expensive to pay when the drinks were not made as directed, but they were not undrinkable. Though one drink was too bland and another one was not cold enough, I'll still give try their other drinks or shaved ice sometime. Hope they'll be better tasting and have more ice next time.

Personally, on a warm afternoon I find such a treat to be a bit more light and refreshing (and less fattening) than dairy-based goodies. Additionally, as the young lady at the counter pointed out, HSI's fare includes sugar-free options, as well. This shop - and it is a very small sliver on the end of the strip mall on the intersection of Atterdag and Copenhagen - is a walk-up establishment and, as a landmark, you can't miss the cool, colorful little electric cars they also rent if approaching the block from the side. The servers (owners?) were extremely friendly and gave us some excellent tips about local activities and nearby sight-seeing destinations including Nojoqui Falls Park - a waterfall in Solvang; who would have thunk it? For some satisfying treats and a wealth of local information, this shop is hard to beat. Don't forget to stop by on your next visit to Solvang!
