“ Delicious! I'm not usually one for "snappy" hot dogs, but these are awesome!! Way better than expected (and judging by the reviews, I expected it to be amazing) the #3 dual dogs were so good. The toppings are excellent. You definetly walk away full. I took my son for a mommy and me day, he loves hot dogs. He said they are the best hot dogs in the world! We will be coming back. ”
“ I got the Beenie Weenie hot dog and the Sourkraut dog along with small fries. Both were perfect!! The flavors of each hot dog blended together so perfect! And the fries... oh my yum! Loved having the celery salt available to add to my dogs and pepper to put on my fries. Of course fries aren't right of they don't have vinegar... which is readily available. Service was prompt, friendly, and so quick!! Will definitely become one of my go to spots when I am in the area. ”
“ I’m in Augusta 1-2 times per year and this is always on my list of things to do. Great hot dogs and fries. Friendly staff. It’s where the locals eat, which says a lot. ”
“ I have been wanting to eat here for awhile but always arrived after 3pm. I never memorized the hours or when they are open, always a 'guess' on arrival kind of thing. Parking is a hard one, very limited parking - in the summer there is seating outside in the 'back yard' under some trees. Today was the day! Arrived at 11am for some delicious dogs - my husband and I ordered the chili cheese fries, two dogs and a drink combo (13). One dog had chili and cheese the other had baked beans, coleslaw with bacon... dang! That beanie dog was soooo scrumptious I had to have another! Who would have thought coleslaw and beans on a dog would be that good?! The staff are super friendly, great vibe! The place itself is like a black and red retro kind of feel to it - so the chairs are black metal and counter tops rustic. I liked it. It is January 2025 so it is winter and the place was nice and warm inside. I will have to go again when it is in the summer and see what the fuss is all about and check it out for myself. Overall, got my hangry butt out of its funk - I will be back and with friends! ”
“ Always willing to go out of my way for this place! Not only are the hot dogs Great but the fries are exceptional!! ”
“ Awesome! Finally! Fries done right. The dogs are good too. Next time I think I'll try a burger, or maybe the chicken. I'm definitely going back. ”
“ Never disappoints! Tried it for the 1st time only a few months ago, it's reasonable priced, delicious. The employees are always kind. The choice of toppings are amazing, I brought my husband here and he always gets saurkraut on his hot dogs now . Definetily recommend though they close at 3 in the afternoon so go early. ”
“ Excellent food. Friendly service. I was transported to my childhood. ”
