I'm giving it four stars because it has vegan options here :-) The hot dog is just like any vegan hot dog that I can get from a grocery store except here you guys put toppings on it. I will come back to try the burger. My husband said the food was okay that he got, he got a burger. I'm also giving four stars because the staff that we encountered was very nice. I wouldn't say it was the most tasty food and neither would my husband. I like what you're trying to do for the vegans though!

Great people, great food ... get "The Special" and then go back and get one "your way." Don't forget the fries ... best "plain" fries I think I've had, and the chili-cheese fries are fantastic!

I love the 1950's nostalgic atmosphere. It brings me back to a time of when I wasn't born. Food is great. Very filling and always fresh. Staff is very welcoming and cheerful.

Stopped in again after 20+ years. Same great food and service. Mel came out to greet customers. The place is iconic! Don't miss it!

Service was great. Atmosphere is fun with the retro decor. The fries were fantastic. We got the Chicago Style dog which was very tasty. I only wish the dog was a little bigger...the length was fine.
