After stopping by the arboretum to see the trolls, it was time to grab a small lunch on our way back to downtown Asheville. We passed Celebrity's Hotdogs on the way to the trolls, and agreed to give it a try on the way home. We arrived around 2:30, so definitely off peak dining time, which was nice. We walked in and right up to the counter, and after a quick review of the menu went with a #1, a hot dog all the way, chips and a canned drink for $6! I explored the space a little while I waited for them to call my order number. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The walls are covered floor to ceiling with nascar memorabilia...well, even parts of the ceiling. Not my thing, but I know others will appreciate it[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food didn't take long, and it hit the spot. Tasty dog, generous toppings, friendly staff and a great price. Honestly, this probably best deal you'll get in Asheville. I'd definitely recommend this spot to others traveling in the area, especially on a budget. read more

Being totally honest, the food is pretty basic. But that's not a bad thing here! A quick, affordable meal is always good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place itself is very nostalgic, which I loved[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], and the staff was phenomenally nice. Truly I would go back every day just to feel that genuine welcome they offered. Good people for sure. read more

Celebrity's Hotdogs - Hot Dogs Near Me - Asheville, North Carolina

The guy running the place was nice. I get the feeling this may be a family business, so I have a hard time giving a down review, but unfortunately there just another way around it. Pros: Friendly Fast Convenient Cons: Boiled not grilled dogs Fries taste like they came from a bag. Flavorless overall. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is a cafe , diner atmosphere[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] so you need to stop by and experience this place. read more

Stopped in for a quick bite to eat. Super friendly people. We shared a basic hot dog and got the coleslaw. Both were very fresh and flavorful. Fun spot. Highly recommend if you're craving a hotdog like my husband has been read more

Took my 76 year old mother there and we both really enjoyed the friendly employees and the hot dogs were delicious!! We will be back!! First time that both of us had eaten for under $18 in a long time! read more

Great food! As hot dog restaurants go, I don't know that I've been to a better one in the Asheville area. The staff was super friendly and the food came up really fast. In a world where food prices are in the rise, Celebrity's is holding on. I got the chili cheese dog, and it was fantastic. There is also plenty of NASCAR memorabilia to look at, which is pretty neat. Would definitely recommend. read more

Celebrity's Hotdogs - Chili Cheese Dog with Onion Rings - Hot Dogs Near Me - Asheville, North Carolina

Not the best hotdogs, and it was a really simple hotdog at a cheep price. Booths were small and not clean, but you quickly get the vibe from people they don't want you sitting down there anyway. Do not go out of your way to get here, and it will be out of your way. If you are already there, you could do a lot worse. read more

My husband's goto for an excellent hotdog on a steamed bun! Service is always fast and friendly.

People here are really nice. Super accommodating. This is a hotdog place so expect hotdogs. Bread and fries were as expected. The BBQ sandwich was good too. The chili cheese slaw dog was good too. Went here twice and both times were great. Service was quick and prices were reasonable. read more

Doesn't look like much on the outside but upon entry you are blown away by the small town homestyle nostalgia! A no frills, cheap and homely eatery. The owner was delightful and kind, telling us about his days as a short car NASCAR racer -- charming us with his tales of his career. The corn dog and chili dog are a must for any true hot dog lover. Will be back on future visits! read more

They have the best fries. Crinkle cut, fresh out the fryer! I have always loved this place, and it's popular for good reason.

What a treat after a long day of hiking! All I was thinking about on this strenuous adventure were chili cheese fries. As we are driving back, to our left, I see CELEBRITY HOTDOGS! How can we not stop? It was amazing. I got an "All The Way Hotdog" and of course, chili cheese fries. Each bite was an adventure in my mouth. I was sad when it was over. Do yourselves a favor and stop by this place. You'll be treated warmly and most importantly, you'll walk away extremely satisfied! read more

Celebrity's Hotdogs - All The Way and CHILI CHEESE FRIES - Hot Dogs Near Me - Asheville, North Carolina

Amazing food, loved the customer service and atmosphere was great as well. Will be returning here

Great Hotdogs. Even though it was very busy the line moved really fast. Reminds me of Pinks in Los Angeles. I'll certainly be back. read more

Good food! Great service! The chili cheese dog was perfect, nothing fancy just traditional chili and cheese. The fries were hot a fresh.

I am a big hotdog fan and this place does a really great job. I opted for 'all the way', although, I am a classic mustard only kinda guy. The bun is steamed to perfection, making it soft and fluffy. The dog fits the bun so perfectly and the offerings on top are carefully placed to facilitate a full yet clean bite. The fries were crispy and hot. Staff is super friendly and they are proud of their little place as they should be. read more

Line out the door, which tells you everything. Got the all the way dog with jalapenos and onion rings. Cost about 6 bucks. Fresh rings, tasty dog. Cool story about the owner on the wall. Sat at one of the tables outside with my dog. Nice little treat, I'll stop back. read more

Great place to stop for a quick bite on the way. Very nice owner and the food was really good

If it's not broken, don't fix it. Celebrity's Hotdogs is exactly what a hotdog joint should be; an unassuming, classic joint, serving great dogs at a great price. Oh, and if the layout and design of this place isn't original, they've accomplished the best, non cliché throw-back I've yet to see. Felt like I was back in the time! read more

There is nothing really special about Celebrity's Hotdogs but I give them two stars because they are cheap and they have a cool inside theme going on. All the décor is race themed with helmets and pictures all over the place. I tried a hot dog and BBQ sandwich and found both to be way too bland. At the very least this place could buy Nathan's hotdogs, which are so juicy and delicious. The service wasn't bad but it also wasn't friendly. It was just like the food, bland. read more

Read the review by Chris S. then add "ditto from Roger". Service was prickly even when I gushed niceness. Seriously...I did. Hot dogs are eh? And they seemed confused when I wanted to add stuff. Hrrrmm read more

The best hot dogs in Asheville.The buns are soft and the slaw is so good! The hot dog is not like a lot of wieners where they are very salty so that makes this even better. I will drive the distance just to get the great hot dog.The service is very fast and friendly. Any chance of another location? read more

If you're an Asheville transplant from a small town and enjoy a friendly atmosphere you have found your spot. Get your hotdog all the way, a side of crispy, fried onion rings and thank me later. I really enjoyed this spot, where they know your name and treat you like family. read more

Yummy yum yum! Awesome dogs and super duper service! We were greeted with smiles and friendliness! Next time we're in Asheville we will definitely put this lil gem in our rotation! read more

Normally I give the standard Asheville diners/dives a 3 star if they are OK, but this one I give four stars because they are consistent. Their buns are soft from steam, the hot dogs haven't changed, the chili is yummy with the runny yellow cheese, their Carolina dawgs are perfect with the slaw, onions, chili and yellow mustard. They have combination plates, they have milkshakes, they have what I call Canton Fries (crinkle fries) and they have saur Kraut if you so desire. They always have a smile on their face and usually a line. Certainly they are affordable. read more

Great hot dogs, and fantastic service. Very polite and friendly. Will definitely be back

It's just a really good hotdog restaurant that's exactly like what you hope a hotdog restaurant would be. Everything is fast and friendly. They have crinkle fries and indoor seating. Soda comes in bottles. read more

Ok so I was starving after being stuck in an extremely long case at work and I didn't have lunch yet after I left at 2:30 pm, so after doing an important errand and still starving on my way home I decided to stop in and try this place. The atmosphere is very sports auto racing which is actually really cool for them to do one theme very well. Secondly, I'm in awe of the prices extremely reasonable I had a drink, regular fries and an all the way dog with chili onions and slaw on top all for less then $7. Definitely a delicious find, and it was enough to keep me from eating a hole in the upholstery of the car on the way home. I will definitely return. The fries were good, the dogs are small, but next time I'm skipping the fries for two dogs and a soda. I also tried the onion rings which were very good. I don't usually review places unless I've been twice. Both times fast and friendly service. read more

Five star southern style hot dogs done right. We got chili, slaw and onions and it was perfect. Nice steamed bun and good crispy crinkle cut french fries. read more

If you're wanting a hot dog boutique experience look elsewhere. This is simple comfort food, and it's just the right thing when that's what you want. I will say that I've never had a soggy french fry, and I LOVE crispy ones. The menu is straightforward and priced right. Some reviews complain about service, and while the staff may not be your typical chatty southerners, I always get cordial service with a smile there. I saw something during my meal today that I think is really important. Being a restaurant with good food is crucial, but only a few restaurants become a part of culture. I saw a guy come in and ask how much it would cost for one hot dog. Many places would have been judgmental based on his appearance. The guy behind the counter (maybe the owner?) told him what it would be, and the customer showed him a handful of change. Now, there's nothing wrong with getting what you pay for, but what I saw next makes me a supporter of this business for more than food. The man behind the counter looked this guy in the eye and said, "What would you like? A hot dog all the way?" The customer couldn't afford that, but the worker gladly made him their best hot dog and gave him the same service as anyone else. That's a business model I can get behind, and that makes Celebrity's a part of their neighborhood (not just a place to eat). read more
