Good for late night hot dogs. They have other things on the menu such as chicken, Italian beef, probably burgers, certainly hot dogs.

The food is great for the price.

Also, 2 hot dogs is cheaper than 1 hot dog. So get 2 🌭🌭

kind of pricey for a veggie burger combo meal, it was about $18. not a huge fan of the veggie patties it kind of tasted like fish batter. portions are very large and makeup for the cost.

We stopped here after seeing a special on The Food Guy. What he got looked much better than what we had. Our food was OK. Not bad, not great. Not what we expected. A bit pricey for what you get.
