Skins' Hotdogs — Restaurant in Clemson

Limp vienna sausage served with bland flavorless chili on a Twinkie.

Someone told them they are the best. That person never had a dog at Southern BBQ, the Varsity, Brandi's, Boots, Holm's, Nathan's - or even DQ and Cook out. I ordered 3. The chili was visually recognizable as chili and there it ended. No flavor at all. It smelled a bit like potted meat, but wasn't as good. The wiener was soft and flavorless as well. Good southern style dogs don't have to be all beef snappy wieners like Hebrew Ntl, Nathans or Boars head, but it should have better texture and flavor than a vienna sausage. But is was the bun that totally ruined it. It was SWEET. Strong, cake like sweet. Sweeter than Hawaiian bread. A bite of this dog was like eating a Twinkie stuffed with potted meat. Oh, the slaw is sold on the side, not the dog, in a tiny 2 ounce condiment cup for, wait for it, $1.00. How can a southern style hotdog place not offer slaw already on the dog for an extra 10 to 25 cents?

This was my second trip to a Skin's location and neither were modestly impressive. The first was only so bad I thought maybe it was the location or an off night and that I should give another location a try. Next time I'm in that area craving a hotdog I'll...

Just finished the worst dining experience in a very long time. As i walked through the door and was headed to wash my hands The manager (Theresa) yelled to me from the kitchen area how many do you want? I have never eaten here so I had no idea what l was going to eat. I told her I had to wash my hands first. I am not sure why she was yelling to me when everyone else walked to the counter and placed their order like a normal restaurant would do. I did not feel very welcomed in this establishment and did not enjoy my meal at all. The other two ladies were nice but the tone was already set. I got the impression that she did not want me to use the bathroom if I was not ordering food, not sure that was the intended message but it was the message received. If that is the way they are supposed to interact with the customers then I guess I just don't care for that...

Ist time visit merely out of curiosity and my love of hotdogs. I was very disappointed with the taste and quality. I got dogs with chilli, onion, mustard, mayo.

My first issue was that I expected to get beef franks but I immediately noticed the dogs tasted like Vienna, which I am not a fan of. I wish that was made clearer on menu or during purchase, maybe I over looked it.

My second issue was that the dogs seemed to be boiled instead of grilled :(. A 2 dog combo with a 20oz bottle of soda and a bag of chips cost about $8.

I loved the look of the place. It had a very retro vibe to it. The decor alone and staff would have been a reason for me to return, if I like Vienna dogs.

Bottonline: kids will love it here, staff is welcoming, place is clean and the chilli is good. They need to sell separately if they don't already. If ur into vienna dogs, you'll...
