What they say!

Delicious food and great service. My husband is a hotdog aficionado- he said the chili dog was perfection, and that the hotdog quality/taste was as good as his favorite brand. The cookies were awesome, too. We’ll be back!

We had the Chicago dog (which my son devoured), a frito pie (with all the fixings) and a chili dog! Everything was EXCELLENT! Food was prepared fresh and fast! Service was better than anywhere I have been in a long time! Check them out! You won’t be sorry.

I had only a hot dog and a Coke. The dog was pretty darned good. The home made sweet and spicy sauce really got my attention........very tasty. I now have another happy place. Oh, just two more words: Frito pies
