Overview

Description

No-frills counter-service joint specializing in eclectic hot dogs, burgers & deep-fried sides.

They have moved to a drive thru only service, the dining room is closed indefinitely. Could be covid related but that really wasn't important to me, I never went there for the atmosphere. This used to be my favorite hot dog place with maybe a dozen different hot dog menu options. Unfortunately they paired down the menu to the point where it's basically just 3 types of hot dog types and 4 non traditional toppings (I consider ketchup, mustard and onion condiment Staples for any Burger or hot dog joint). When I pulled up to the drive-thru, there weren't all the specialty dogs they used to have. When I asked where the list was on the menu they said they've cut their menu down a lot and that they could make something if I could tell them what the ingredients were... if they even had them. No more Windy City Chicago dog, Tail Wagger, Firecracker, etc. Now I'm sure some of the specialty dogs you could create using the limited condiment options they have now, but the best and most interesting ones, which is why we always made the trip, you can't. You can get a hot dog with basic ingredients anywhere, the best thing about this place was the menu of specialty dogs. I'm sure part of the reason has to do with covid and ingredient shortages or being able to find staff that wants to work in a hot dog diner and can actually read a menu and put together a dog with more than just basic ingredients. I feel for a small businesses like this that have had to make serious cuts and compromises just to try to stay afloat. Unfortunately in this case, the stuff that was cut were what made it so unique.

This iconic Cleveland landmark recently changed hands with the family of the original owners taking over. The location itself definitely need some updating, kind of grungy, smelly with fryer Grease Etc but the menu is very eclectic, service was very good, the place was busy at lunch, and the menu selections offered different size servings of hot dogs Etc. I had the hillbilly dog which had chili and coleslaw and I can say that the hot dog itself was awesome a nice crispy outside hot inside chewy texture and good quality. The sandwich was messy but very enjoyable. So good to see people in the Parma area supporting this restaurant as the new owners take over and make improvements. I can definitely recommend.

Came in with the family yesterday to get a quick bite and we were not disappointed. All the food is really flavorful and the restaurant has a very unique feeling. Also it’s cool that the building is that of an old-styled Taco Bell! They have a huge array of different flavored ketchups, mustards, and BBQ sauces which you have to try. I personally really loved the Sriracha Mustard. It was delicious on top of one of their Coney dogs! The fries and made fresh with a really delicious coating of garlic butter as well. Yum! My brother did however recommend that the Pierogi Burger have two pierogis instead of just one. But other than that, if we in Cleaveland again, we’d totally stop on my by again !

I ordered online take out. The windy city dog. I had to eat it with a fork instead of enjoying a hotdog because someone decided to put a ton of chicago relish on the bottom of the hotdog. Soon as I tried to pick it up to bite the whole bottom dropped into a soggy mess 😐 I'll give it another try but I'll see if I can gt the toppings on the side. I also had onion rings which I wouldn't recommend they cost more than fries but are so stingy barely any onion in the onion ring ...not seasoned... and u only get 8 exactly (I counted 4 little small rings 3 average size and 1 large one) It wasn't nasty but when I order a hotdog I expect to eat a hotdog not hot dog caserole 😔
