Sahlen's hot dogs were my comfort food and they know how to make them right here. Staff is always friendly and I love that they feature a dog of the week with mashups of different toppings.

A Charlotte institution, Brooks has been serving tasty burgers, hot dogs and fries from a red-brick…read moreroadside kitchen in NoDa since 1973. And their recipe for success is pretty simple: fresh, honestly made food served hot, and with a smile. There's no indoor seating (and not much outdoors, for that matter), limited parking, and no booze, but the chili cheeseburger, served in a wax paper wrap and dripping with greasy flavor, is a quintessential Queen City experience. Service was fast and friendly, and you can enjoy your meal at a covered picnic table or (as we did) in your car. I wouldn't say Brooks makes the city's 'best burger' (much less 'the World's,' as the sign claims), but its homemade goodness will remind you of simpler days, when it was a lot easier to find reliably tasty comfort food at a reasonable price. Definitely worth a visit from anywhere in Charlotte.

Yet, Brooks is famous for the chili and the slaw is good. My friend had the smoked sausage sandwich,said it was great. The potato wedge fries are fried crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. This one of my childhood local spots still great food. It is a sandwich shop order at outside window without any real seating but still well worth it

Chubz Famous Chili Burgers - Uber Eats Wow…read more... REALLY GOOD FOOD! Chili dog, chili burger, slaw, onion rings. Everything arrived hot, excellent portions, great combination of flavors/ingredients. I loved the coleslaw. It was more creamy and sweet than it was vinegar and tart. I really enjoyed it, reminded me of back home how my mom used to make coleslaw. That hot dog was not a skinny scrawny one either, a really good portion. The burger was very generous, perfectly cooked, enough of all the different layered ingredients - it wasn't overpowering, the flavors just complimented each other. The onion rings were excellent! Homemade as you can tell from the pictures, they will heat up nicely in the air fryer tomorrow when I have lunch. It was my first time ordering, and I definitely will order from them again! For me. It was one of the better burgers I've ever had!

The happy hour is amazing and actually goes into the evening (a rare win), plus they have specials every single day. You really can't go wrong. Their tenders are also great, but honestly... go for the burgers. And if you can, grab a seat at the bar--that's where it's at. The vibes, the food, the consistency... unmatched. Charlotte friends, don't ever take Penguin for granted. I'll be dreaming about it from afar

Mid afternoon so place was almost empty and staff were cleaning up. Nice young lady took my order for a chili dog and tots. Well they were out of tots so I deducted a star. On a positive note they had the good ice and Dr Pepper. No fresh brewed tea so another knock. On a positive note they have a beer tap wall. Not sure how it works since it was not beer thirty yet but interesting. Private parking friendly folks and neat decor but please get me some tots spoof you don't have rings lol.

The axes aren't incredibly sharp so I wouldn't worry about getting hurt, but they're sharp enough to have a good time throwing! The food was also really yummy. Their hot dogs were filling and the food came out quick. The staff were really helpful at teaching us how to throw the axe properly.

Too many choices. Just red something simple, delicious, and contorting. But who? Enter QCBC. It's getting late. I'm hungry. And I want something simple. And honestly, The Alley is really hyper confusing. So I pull into QCBC just looking for a burger and a beer. And dayum!! Did they deliver!!! First...my bartender comes in super cool. She explains the menu and recommends a beer. I keep it simple...the QCBC Burger with provolone and fries. She recommends the Kolsch. I'm in!! Long story short...perfection!!! The burger is cooked exact to spec. The fries are crispy, seasoned and delicious, and the beer is a pitch-perfect match. Faith restored!!! I was skeptical going in. Walking out...full, happy, and looking forward to the next time I can settle up to the bar and enjoy another perfect burger and a beer experience. Seriously kids...hit it out of the park!!!

Will absolutely be back!

Today I happened upon a Crave Hot Dogs and Beer. They have a vast menu with a ton of options. My…read morefriend and I stopped in for a snack. We got a chili cheese dog with fries. They both were tasty. The hot dog was big and juicy and well dressed. They air fry all their traditionally fried. That's probably my only complaint. I prefer fried food to be fried in oil, but that's my preference. We also tried the brisket and pulled chicken (sorry I forgot to take a picture). They were also good. Everything was served hot and fresh. I'm a condiment girl and they have five bbq sauces: Original, Mississippi, Kansas, Memphis, and Sweet and Tangy. We actually liked all of them between the two of us. Here are a few more highlights and reasons for you to stop in and check them out. 1. Plenty of parking including a ramp for accessibility. 2. They have Ax Throwing. It's not traditional axe throwing, they use a screen. They also have other fun games including Tic-Tac-Toe and a Candy Crush like game. It's also affordable. It was $10 per person/hr. We stopped in on a Monday afternoon before 5:00pm. 3. They have a few fun things on their menu including corn nuggets, fried pickles, pineapple upside down cake, and a sampler where you can try a little bit of everything. 4. The staff (Ron and Shawn) was very friendly and thoroughly explained the menu. They also chatted with us since they were not too busy and made sure we had all we needed to enjoy our meal. 5. They have over 20 taps with a variety of beer. They also have beer specials during football season. Stop in and visit Crave for a taste of Carolina and a little family fun.

Ambiance was nice and they did have samples of their popular dishes. I order the brisket Sammy which has sliced brisket, Kansas BBQ sauce, coleslaw and pickles (which i didn't add).
