The chili cheese fries had no cheese at all and just a small spoonful of chili on top. I couldn’t help but laugh when I saw them. The hot dog was only about 6 inches long and had very little chili on it. It cost me $4. I would recommend skipping this place. After waiting 3 months to have lunch here, I'm really glad I didn't rush into it.

The hot dogs were only lukewarm, clearly straight from a pot of water — boiled, no doubt. Perhaps some people enjoy boiled hot dogs, but I certainly don’t. The chili tasted like it was straight from a can, and I’ve had plenty of chili in my life; this was among the worst. The fries were like the frozen crinkle-cut kind you find in the freezer aisle at Walmart. They sit under a heat lamp and are completely unseasoned. While it’s nice to support local spots like this little hole-in-the-wall, the food just isn’t good. If you’re looking for high-quality meals, I’d recommend steering clear of this place. Those giving it 4-5 stars seem to be prioritizing nostalgia over the actual food quality.

I ordered a hotdog with chili and coleslaw, along with a cheeseburger. The onion rings were perfectly cooked and crispy, just how I like them. Even though the place was busy, the line moved quickly. It's a great spot for a quick and simple lunch uptown.

Great local place with long history in Charlotte. The folks that run it are great. read more Great local place with long history in Charlotte. The folks that run it are great.

We really enjoyed the hot dogs! The fries were served hot and were not greasy at all. It was great to have free refills on drinks!

However, finding parking was a bit difficult; we had to park on the street for 25 cents.
