I would give 10 stars for the staff if it was allowed. Super nice and the slaw dog was amazing as long as you’re not wearing a white shirt lol. 2 thumbs up

Crowded and noisy. Great place for a good hot dog. I believe they have been there for 40 years. The parking lot was full of cars and the restaurant was full of people.

I’m so glad I discovered this little hot-dog gemstone nestled up on the hill between Southeastern Salvage and Irondale Pickers. The hot dogs were fabulous- it was almost nostalgic. I haven’t had a hotdog that great in a minute!!! Nice, laid back, clean atmosphere. Owners are very friendly too!

Amazing food and even more amazing people. A must stop if you are in the area. Most inpressive hot dog bun in the world, thought that I was going to need a fork and knife, but the soft bun was strong enough to just pick it up and eat it.
