Great dogs, but no toppings other than sauerkraut and they run a little small, I should have gotten three instead of two.

The guy they have working there now is a total jerk. He screwed up and gave my food to the guy two behind me, who ordered the exact same thing (hot and a kiel,) so I said, I think you gave him my food, and he got agitated. Other than than a large order of skinny regular dogs on the grill when I got there, my order was next and the only fat dogs on the grill. I was definitely before the other guy. Several more people behind me were then given their food as well, like 4 or so. I politely asked him if he had a hot and a kiel on the grill, because I knew he gave my food to the wrong person. He got all upset and said "you did this last time," or something crazy like that. I haven't been in there in a year or so, much less ever seen this jerk. I said, hey, you have the wrong person, I haven't been in here in over a year, but he continued to say all kinds of crazy stuff about how I have an attitude and that some dogs take longer than others, yet he gave away my exact order to the someone that ordered after me. He got so agitated, I thought he wanted to fight. I have no idea why this guy reacted this way, considering he made a mistake, but he has no business dealing with the public. He is unbalanced and the owner should really look at him closely. I'm never going back in there and unless you want to be accosted for no reason, and have a lunatic get all angry at you, I suggest you don't either.

This place has the top-notch hotdogs, I come here all the time, and this is the rare place where you can get a nice lunch for under 10 bucks.. They also have a bunch of good sausages, but they call it top dog for a reason - so I recommend getting top dogs.+1 also for the good variety of mustard and a nice big tureen of sauerkraut. Just the way I like it.

The dogs here are always five star, but cleanliness is again a real problem. Today, 9/29, the condiment table is nasty with onions, relish, sauerkraut all over the table. The tables were littered with crumbs and bun bits, chairs too, and floor clearly hadn't been cleaned in some time. There were two people working, one on the grill and one having a conversation with someone. Management needs to send in a deep cleaning crew.

Shared the top dog frankfurter, hhhot link, and lemon chicken with a fellow hot dog lover last night and it was a delicious meal. Really appreciate the all beef options and chicken options! It's a simple place, quick and good service, and great topping options. They also have prepackaged ice cream and a soda fountain. Would definitely return for a snack during future Trader Joe's visits!

Really enjoy all kinds of dogs here since I was at Berkeley about 40 years ago. It’s inexpensive and tasty, and, most importantly, it still do. Two thumbs up!

Weiner salute! Delicious griddled hot dogs. I had mine with bacon and grilled onions. Great snap to the sausage skin. Excellent choice of condiments including spicy brown mustard and sauerkraut. We were so blown away by the local Alameda sodas! We're not usually soda drinkers but we're glad we gave these a try. Delicious dogs for a reasonable price.
