    First trip back since the new owners and it was hopping. I ordered 2 all the way, small FF, and a coke. All in all decent service, although no one checked if I was enjoying everything. It's not a bargain anymore, that's for certain. Came to over $15 before tip. Biggest rip off is a medium coke for $3.50 (come on guys). Overall I enjoyed the food. Might come back but they could really improve overall service and beverage pricing.

    Last stop on day three of the RI Food Fights was another classic location, Wein-O-Rama, which was notoriously closed and then reopened by some local business people to great acclaim. That plays out in the busy parking lot and lots of people running in and out all day long. Unfortunately for us, the legendary status doesn't live up on the product. There was an off-putting spice in the sauce, infant identify it: it tastes like cinnamon or nutmeg, but Is probably allspice. In any event, it doesn't make the product better. The quality of the bun and weiner are quite good. Everything is on there in good ratios. But the taste is so weird and out of place it ruined it for me. It's good that this was the 3rd stop of the day, because if I came out of nostalgia for three all the way, I wouldn't have gone past the first one. Disappointed, but happy for the businessmen who kept it alive and for the people who clearly enjoy it.

    2 all the way

    Grabbed two all the way to go at the little side take out window. Very good wieners, meat sauce is excellent, onions were fantastic, and the Dijon mustard gave it great flavor. Although the wiener isn't cut off the rope and didn't make it end to end on the bun, it was amazing!

    I've been looking to try a local dog with "meat sauce", mustard, onion, and CELERY SALT. Del's lemonade was close so I check out hot dogs and this restaurant was right down the road with great ratings. Nice cashier took my order and bagged it. The hot dog was so good and now what a different celery salt makes. I will add this to my Carolina style dog which has the same ingredients without celery salt. The fries were cooked to order and they stayed hot! Restaurant had 50s style diner theme but very clean. Overheard someone ordering scrambled eggs at 3pm! So you can order whatever you want at any time!

    If you grew up in Rhode Island, you know Wein-O-Rama. This place is a true Cranston institution & home to some of the best hot wieners you'll ever have. After being closed for a bit, I was excited to see the doors open again. The second you walk in, it hits you: that comforting smell of grilled onions, spiced meat sauce & nostalgia. The decor is classic, old-school diner vibes with counter stools & no-frills tables. It's the kind of place where locals gather, orders are shouted with confidence & everything feels like home. I started with a cup of New England chowdah. There's no fancy garnish, no pretension & it tastes of the sea. I got 3 "all the way" (mustard, meat sauce, onions & celery salt). The wieners were snappy & juicy, the sauce was savory with a kick of spice & the bite of the fresh onions makes them irresistible. There was a long line for the take-out window & an almost equally long line for getting a seat inside. There seemed to be a little confusion on seating people but I'm sure it will work itself out soon. Service was friendly & efficient. Bottom line: Wein-O-Rama is back & better than ever. If you're a local, you know the deal. If you're visiting, this should be at the top of your list for a truly Rhode Island experience.

    2 Wieners, All the way. With a side of fries and a coke. Can't get more American than that!

    Very nice job cleaning the old place up. Looks brand new! The new uniform looks great on your new crew! Server was friendly and I got my 2-all-the-way pretty fast. They were as good as ever! Nice job new owners!

    Good traditional hot weiner. Onion rings were cooked well. Will not be disappointed. Service was good and fast. Very busy place, the staff runs it very well. Milkshake was pretty good as well.

    Gotta love RI hot wieners! This place is a staple when we go to visit the fam. It's a diner, so the atmosphere is relaxed. The service is friendly, and they treat you like family. The fries were a little oily, but still good. If you're here for a hot wiener, order them all the way! And, if you're like my dad, have a Tums handy lol

    Menu description

    I love their hot weiners so I decided to try their breakfast. I ordered their Avocado toast which was described to have "smashed avocado" on it. I'm pretty sure I got an avocado spread and barely any of it. I can't believe this was $11! Dunkin Donuts has a better avocado toast than this and for less. Very disappointed. If you're not going to do it right don't put it on your menu.

The restaurant is very clean. I've met the owner twice as he tries to get around the diningroom before you leave to make sure your experience was a good one & personally thank you. I feel that in itself makes a big difference in quality control & guaranteeing he is hearing his customers & perhaps can make changes before it becomes a business-changing problem. (Sometimes a few bad reviews spread like wildfire & changing rumors back to the truth can hurt the bottom line). There is a delightful waitress you'll be glad to have serve you if you are lucky enough to be seated at her table. "Grandma (name)?" is a very happy way to start your day. She knows the menu well & can make you smile on your worse days. The menu has plenty to choose from & the portions sizes..epic! Eggs Benedict is 3 egg size. Pancakes & French toast orders are enough for today & tomorrow without adding eggs or meat. But their prices are similar to other places lessor size plates. There is an ramp at the entrance for those with mobility issues. There are a couple of handicap spots too. I do not know if the restrooms are wheelchair friendly as I didn't check it out yet. Even on a packed Sunday morning, the kitchen was quick moving the food out.. the waitress was right on top of refills too. Definitely worth stopping in & giving it a try but bring your appetite. Eating like a bird, I think, is frowned upon.

Seat yourself at the counter or in one of the 6 booths. Daily specials are posted both ends of the counter. Menus are on the table. A waitress came right over with napkins and flatware and took a drink order. Coffee, tea, soda, water, etc. Half & half is on the table along with salt & pepper. Breakfast includes omlettes, pancakes, breakfast sandwiches and egg breakfasts. I chose the #6 eggs with corned beef hash, breakfast potatoes and toast. I asked if the hash was house made and told yes. Based on my experience with canned corned beef, I'm thinking their 'Helen's heavenly hash' is very similar. The eggs were cooked very well. The potatoes tasty. Toast comes buttered. There are plenty of sandwich options on the lunch menu with or without fries. My SO chose a fully loaded Philly cheese steak. It's a good size sandwich and I am told it's tasty. The fries are crispy outside, fluffy inside. Everything was served nice and hot. Our server was new and she did a good job. A small ladies room is inside at the end of the counter while a men's room is outside. Feels like a diner this small could have two unisex restrooms instead of making customers go outside in the cold. Plenty of parking in their private lot. As with all true diners I've been to, the entrance is a couple steps up.

The Portuguese benedict was pretty good. French toast like sweet Portuguese bread as a base with linguica and soft runny egg topped with hollandaise sauce. Slightly sweet and savory and definitely one of better eggs benedict I've had in RI. Home fries were crunchy and flavorful. Coffee was solid as well.
