Easily my favorite sandwich shop in town. Phenomenal selection of drinks and killer sandwiches. My favorite is the Kojak. The staff is friendly and super rad

5 star dive in Knoxville Great food, prices, and variety on the menu. Staff was friendly and patient

This place ROCKS. From the super nice staff that want to help you find the right pick for you to the tasty souped-up, gourmet dogs, Curious Dog is a must visit. I ordered two thinking I could get through them like regular dogs but they are thick and heavy- thank goodness they have to-go boxes. It's a neat little spot with multiple coolers full of beer and specialty sodas that make me want to come back for more.

Food was delicious! I like the soda and beer selection, however, the guy with the ponytail made the experience very awkward. He's making the food, slamming everything, cussing anytime an order came in and just seems like he hates life! Though the food was awesome, it'll be the first and last time here.

My girlfriend and I were looking for something for lunch, and I had wanted to try this place for awhile. She got the great gazoo, and I got the Heisenburg. Both were absolutely divine. The two gentleman working there gave great service. Very friendly, and very helpful when we had questions. The only thing I'm not a fan of is the price, but for downtown Knoxville I'm not surprised nor upset. We both left happy and were talking about how good it was the rest of the day.Very hipster atmosphere. Good music, lots to look at, very small and cozy. If it's possible to get the prices down this place would be perfect, but I'd still be willing to splurge a little for this food.

I wanted to like this place. I really did. The food was good but the restaurant itself was disturbingly filthy. I'd be embarrassed to own a restaurant and let it get so dirty. It's not that hard to hire someone to come clean once a week or even once a month. This place looks like it hasn't been cleaned since it opened. If they cleaned it up we would be back. I'm honestly not sure how the place passes health inspections.

Stopped in on a work trip. Maybe one of the best hot dogs I’ve ever had. Extremely nice folks as well. Will definitely come back next time I’m in town.

The food is good and fresh. It is counter service but they are helpful and patient. The menu is extensive and I would strongly suggest reviewing prior to being in front of cashier taking your order. My wife had the NYC Dawg while I had the Ben Stellar sandwich we shared truffle fries which we could have shared with 2 more addition dinners but we did not finish those. We got two of the exotic sodas from the cooler and dined in their bohemian atmosphere Over all it was a good experience parking is difficult and it's not a place to eat if you are on a budget but a good once a month place.

1st time here, and it did not disappoint. There are so many hot dog and sandwich choices! We had The Triple Lundy and The Ben Stiller sandwiches, and a Better Than Chicago Dog. As good as the food was, the service was even better. We'll definitely be back..

Super friendly guys behind the counter. Virtually unlimited selection of how you would like your hot dog. Entire wall of drinks to choose from going from water to colas to beer.

My husband and I LOVE it here! There aren’t many places like this one. We used to order hot dogs through Uber. Today we went on location for the first time! The sandwiches are incredible. I got the “George Constanza” and the rye bread was the best I have ever had.

Absolutely amazing!!! If you want something classic, beautiful, underrated and 100% American then come here. People, place, cuisine, reminds me of home and how sweet American days of culture and prosperity filled the hearts my parents. This is a spot that I will come back to every time I hit market square. Menu has creativity like never before seen on dishes that has missed out on ingenuity and no matter who what when where why or how you will find something that you will love and peak your interest!!! 10/10 recommend!!!

They have the best hotdogs ever at this place. Amazingly flavorful with a variety of topping options. They could stand to have a couple more options and diet drinks but that isn’t something that Ken, take away from the fact that these hotdogs are the best in Tennessee.
