"I found this restaurant on google and I'm glad I did the atmosphere was nice and clean. The staff was friendly but, most importantly the food was 10/10 everything was fire. I highly recommend!!"

"I stopped by for early dinner on the run. The service was friendly and fast. I never had a rib dog before and she explained that it can be messy and still has a bone in it. Best $4 I've spent in a while! 🤤 Next time I go I'll either get two dogs for myself or try some other amazing things they have on the menu! Parking is hard to see but it's on the side of the building. Walk in and ring the bell on the counter. They will come right out."
