    This is my Backyard BBQ Dog, and the picture does not do it justice!
    Annie D.

    There are not enough stars to truly rate these hot dogs! We had Chef Brian and Big City Dogz cater a party for 60 people and man did they deliver! Spiral cut dogs served 3 different ways and all delicious! Mine was a backyard BBQ Dog with homemade baked beans, crunchy coleslaw and a bbq drizzle - yep, even better than it sounds! They served 60 custom dogz with potato salad, green salad and kettle chips in an hour - smiling and laughing the whole time. Cleaned up the entire work and serving area and silently slipped out! Highly recommend them any time!

    Zombie Dog and Chili

    One word. Delicious! I was able to try their 'Zombie Dog' at Casa Mira View and it was sooo good! Brian, the main cook put Mac and Cheese on the Polish sausage with some type of hot sauce that gave it the kick it needed. The service is always good too. He and his team are very polite. Can't wait to try them again.

    Big Yorker

    You can customize your own hotdog but my fiancee and I decided to order from their menu, getting the Windy City and Big Yorker. They were both hot, tasty, and satisfied our cravings. Each hotdog comes with a generous helping of chips and some pickle slices. The staff was friendly and the area was clean and well managed. The wait wasn't long like with a lot of other food trucks. But like with other food trucks the price was on the higher end. We'd come again for a quick, easy meal.

    Big City dog with Cajun sausage

    Big city dogz does not disappoint! Had the "Big City," substitute for a Cajun sausage. Perfect level of spice.

    This is definitely my favorite spot in Vista to grab a glizzy!…read moreAlso, it was National Hot Dog Day, and they had a free hot dog coupon in the app. Winning! Got 2 of my friends to join the app and brought them along as well. The guy running the register was extremely helpful and kind. A+ service! I decided to get the Old Town. It's my favorite. Bacon, caramelized onions, and pickled jalapeños! Yum!! I also ordered a tray of hot tots. They were really good! Can we talk about their fountain machine selection?! ALL of my favorites! Root beer, orange soda, Hawaiian fruit punch. Wow!! The food is always delicious, and I definitely like to sit out on the patio to eat, but we are in a heat wave, so we decided to sit inside!! I hear their hamburgers are really good, so that is what I will try next time.

    I had driven by here quite often but it was never really on my radar. Friends of mine (K,W & P, I'm…read moretalking about you), had told me about a deal they had for national hot dog day. I looked it up and decided I needed to partake too.. It's a big open space with a lot of seating. I waited in line. There were a few people ahead of me but I placed my order for 2 dogs to go when they finished. Then I sat outside in the shade and waited and waited and waited. There were quite a few open seats outside. It was trivia night so I listened to that to pass the time. People were pretty into it. I used to play a lot at other places in the past but these questions seemed kind of hard. Finally a female server came up to me and comment on how long I had been waiting (30 minutes at this point) and said she'd check on my order. I had noticed others after me getting their orders so I'm not sure what happened. She disappeared for another 10 minutes or so but returned with my order. I appreciate her. I get that they were busy but a heads up upon ordering would be nice. I didn't order anything difficult, just two hot dogs, one plain and one with a few condiments. My hot dog was really good. I love sauerkraut and theirs is good. My friend loves his hotdogs/sausages and enjoyed his. He wants to come back now! I also had no idea how extensive their menu would be, bfast burritos, chicken, smash burgers etc. I'll come back but maybe check their calendar first so as not to have a repeat.

    What a nice surprise this place turned out to be. We came hungry and walked away fully satisfied…read more Our kiddos have food allergies and they were able to accommodate. Service was super friendly and helpful. Food was fantastic, especially the chili. Wow, the chili. Burgers were legit. Double burger was way huge. Chili fries were amazing. Dog melt was surprisingly good. Onion rings and fries were on point. Ranch was a little too funny for me. And to be able to top off the meal with Thrifty's ice cream?! We'll be back. Get a big bowl of chili. Large dining area, clean, nicely decorated. Parking wasn't an issue for us.

    This is a long overdue review for Water Shack. I stumbled upon this place a few years ago when I…read morewas craving a no frills mom & pop style burger. To my surprise Water Shack's burgers were delicious and satisfying that I find myself coming back here ever so often. Their burgers aren't the heavy, greasy/high fat patties you would get from other places. However, their 1/4 lb patties are their smallest patties and heft makes for that ideal bun to burger ratio. Did I need to order double patties on most of my burger orders? Probably not. Their patties are on the leaner side but they aren't dry; and the fixings from any burger you choose will satisfy that meaty burger fix you're looking for. The Chicken Patty Melt is also a very tasty item. Very cheesy, buttery and crispy toasted bread with chicken breast. Their fries and onion rings also come air-fried so this place focuses more on the healthier comfort food options that wont leave you feeling heavy and drowsy. This place is also doubled as a purified water dispensary and also serves baked goods and ice cream. Love this type of no-frills, unassuming place with very friendly staff and serves up some delicious food!
