This was our first time dining here. It was very interesting from the moment you walked in. I’ve heard about this place but never dined here before. This is the Famous Tony Packos in Toledo Ohio. Jamie Farr, from MAS*H, (played Corporal Klinger) hails from Toledo, who made it famous worldwide. He mentioned it on a MASH episode. It is a little cool temperature wise but it was fine. Our waitress was amazing, so very friendly. The food was good. I had an original hotdog with a cup of chili. The chili is AMAZING! My boyfriend got the Hungarian hotdog (which is what they’re famous for) it’s a sausage like hotdog with all the trimmings on it, served with a cup of chili and a cabbage roll. It was a lot of food. Very delicious though. They have a little gift shop there. The coolest thing there is, they have styrofoam hotdog buns in showcases, that are authentically signed by celebrities, actors, presidents, famous people that have stopped by to dine here or have been in Toledo. The ones that were in Toledo, they contacted Tony Packos to have a bun ran down to them so they could sign it, for their walls. There are sooooo many of them all over the walls. It’s was very interesting to look at. I took a couple if pics from some. I did see Mr. T, John Glenn, President Donald Trump, Bill Clinton and other presidents too, toooo many to list. But if you’re in the Toledo area, you should make a stop here and take a look at the buns on the walls. It was...

Packo's used to be an absolutely mandatory stop for me and my friends any time we were passing thru Toledo... Sadly, I no longer wish to visit their restaurant, as it seems they are now choosing to price gouge their loyal customers. $20 for a hot dog (MOAD) is excessive, and charging $4 for an incredibly small bowl of mac & cheese is utterly ridiculous. After spending $33 to feed ONLY myself (photo attached), I've decided that my last visit... was my last visit to Packo's. EDIT TO RESPOND TO PACKO'S REPLY: I understand food costs have increased, but it seems that Packo's has taken that opportunity to gouge their loyal customers. Charging $4 for a SMALL bowl of mac & cheese is beyond excessive, as it consists of literally 4 or maybe 5 bites in that small bowl. I struggle to consider Packo's has even 20 cents invested into that serving. Same goes for a $20 hot dog. Your markup is extreme. Don't get me wrong, I'm not attacking your decision to do business as you choose. I'm simply offering feedback so that you will have a better understanding as to why the return rate of your customer base is slowly dwindling. I used to look forward to visiting Packo's, but I must sadly accept that it will no longer be a stop of ours as we pass thru Toledo, nor will I recommend it to any of my...
