    a sign for a hot dog
    John M.

    Bama Hot Dogs is a hot dog restaurant located in a rather battered shopping plaza. Inside of this restaurant does not add to the ambiance. It has about as much ambience as a business's warehouse would have. Still, the staff was friendly and the hot dogs were not bad. I had two hot dogs with chili, onions and mustard. The total was six dollars. I think it also bears mentioning that these are all beef hot dogs. I got here just before 2:00, which is when they close. They were still friendly and it was an overall positive experience.

    Another struggling restaurant. I'm so glad I landed here today

    Excellent chili dogs!!! It saddens me that amid Covid there are so many struggling businesses. This is one of them. I am so happy I ended up here for lunch as it wasn't even on my radar. I talked with the owner and he shared with me just how his business is struggling. They are taking donations in person and also have a go fund me page. I know every little bit helps!! It had been years since I've visited here and it's certainly not the same. Sadly , they didn't have any fries just chips. The fountain drink machine was out of order as well. Nevertheless, I really enjoyed my 2 chili dogs!

    Don't go expecting the food to knock your socks off but this locally owned 'man food' joint deserves some patrons. You go in respecting them and they'll respect you. Their handwritten signs make sure of that..."Management has the right to deny service to anyone" "If you are on your cell phone you WILL NOT be served" "No sagging pants!". They have no "solid" menu. There is a menu board to the right and then a lot of other handwritten posters and specials printed out on paper and taped to the glass. No one place will tell you everything they have. Scan through it all to decide what will tickle your fancy the most. Walk into this dinky little hole in the wall, order in front of the glass, and pay at the register. Your order will be served on paper plates at the counter, clean you off a table, and have a seat. I got the slaw dog special which comes with two hotdogs with slaw, sauce, and onions, a drink, and a small bag of chips for $5.50 tax included. It was pretty basic in flavor but I have no complaints. Hubby got the Tater man special which is tater tots covered in chili and cheese with jalapenos and onions. It's very much a stadium style dish which is his ideal kind of food. His was $6.50 with a drink tax included. Bama Dogs appeared to be very popular among the working men in Tarrant. It got really crowded about 11:30. A lot of the men coming in were ordering the Tuesday meat and vegetable special. The portions are pretty moderate but the prices are also reasonable. IT IS NOT WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE. You must walk up a few steps to get inside just after entering the door.

    Good breakfast selection. Hamburgers are fantastic. Prices are comparable to fast food except their food is so much better.

But we'd spent the day at McWane Center and we were starving so we were there to EAT! The food looked gorgeous but it tasted very meh. The onion rings had too much breading on them, which I didn't think was possible, but here we are. The part of the breading next to the onion was mushy so that threw off the texture of the whole thing too. The burger was very much like a Whataburger. Even the lettuce smelled the same. I got The Standard and the bun of the burger was a little mushy (similar to Whataburger) and there was not much meat. For an $11 burger, I'm expecting more than a Whataburger. My middle kid likes everything on her burger and isn't picky at all and the loaded kid burger looked impressive but it was about the same as mine. Not awful, but not very good either. Very close to the same amount of meat. She's the queen of the Clean Plate Club and she only ate half. The fries were good but a somewhat too salty, the dip that came with the onion rings was excellent and we ended up using it for the fries. We had 2 adults and 3 kids and our meal was $63 before tip for 5 waters, 2 adult burgers, 2 kid burgers, a kid grilled cheese, and a basket of fries and onion rings (I thought I was ordering a "side" of fries, not realizing I actually ordered a basket and it was a lot of fries and onion rings). We don't mind spending money on good food, but the prices here don't align with what you get. No one was more disappointed than me, I've been wanting to eat here for FOREVER!!!

Absolutely delicious and crave worthy. The burger was juicy and flavorful everything I wanted. The bun was toasted to perfection. My husband got the regular hand cut fries and I got the sweet potato fries. Literally the best SP fries I've ever had they were crispy and perfect balance of salty sweet. Yum! I wish we had one in HSV guess I'll have to drive back just for the burgers lol. They also serve different styles of hotdogs and fried pies for dessert. They have a few beer options and fountain drinks. Our food came out quickly and the whole place had a funky cool vibe.

They have a wide variety of specialty burgers, hot dogs, and sides, and I feel that I could try something new every time I come here. I chose to order the Vulcan hot dog, named after an infamous monument of Birmingham. I love how they have so many different types of hot dogs with varying toppings to make your order truly personalized. I chose the spicy option with jalapeños and it did not disappoint! Also, these are the best fries I have had in Birmingham if you are looking for a plant-based option here. When I ordered, I was immediately greeted with a warm welcome. She told me it would be right out, and my order was given to me within 5 minutes. Besides the great food, the ambience is the best part of this place! There is an upstairs area with additional seating, and the interior of the restaurant is covered with vintage, American decor. The walls and decorations really sell the All-American vibe associated with burgers and hot dogs. If you are looking for a new, local burger spot that feels like home this is a great option!

Parking is primarily street parking in the area, but there is also a public parking deck nearby. I'm unsure what the current cost is for the deck, but it's worth knowing if you're visiting during a busier time. I ordered the fish tacos with black beans and chose the cheese grits as my second side. Everything tasted fresh and had lots of flavor. The real star of the meal, though, was the sweet potato cake. It was incredibly moist and delicious. Honestly, I could've eaten four of them without shame or hesitation. My colleagues ordered burgers and fries. They both really enjoyed their burgers, but neither cared much for the fries. They had also requested a couple additional items after the food arrived, but those items never made it to the table. The decor is bright and fun, though it didn't quite seem to match the style of food being served. Just my personal observation. They also have a robot that helps deliver the food alongside the servers, which felt a little unexpected for the casual atmosphere and southern comfort food vibe. They were fairly busy since it was lunchtime on a Friday, but the wait really wasn't bad at all. Would I go back? Yes. Was it my absolute favorite? No. But there were definitely things I enjoyed, especially that sweet potato cake that nearly made me consider ordering dessert first next time.
