I thought it would be like a flat pita, almost like a quesadilla in form, but it was more burrito shaped, which was surprising.

"The Schnitzel" has been my close-to-campus late night hot dog fix since I can remember, and it's still around somehow while nearby fast food chains have come and gone. Should you go out of your way to get a dog here? Nah, but it's nostalgic. I mean, look at their building - it hasn't changed since the 1980's! AND PEOPLE STILL GO HERE, making that drive-thru line long! They're using advanced, modern-day AI computers to take your order in the drive thru! They selling out of merchandise! They sell cans of their own chili!! So don't come here with high expectations. It's chili dogs, french fries, and a taste of Baton Rouge nostalgia that'll let you share stories with people double your age who remember getting $1 hot dogs after staying out late at The Bayou, or seeing a band at The Spanish Moon.

It was hot and juicy and flavorful. I want all too impressed with the toppings on the trash can dog (fries, cheese). The jalapeño poppers were delicious as well. Also some of the best I've tasted. Crispy freshly fried outside. Grease didn't taste old. Tiny pieces of jalapeño with cheese inside that's spicy but not overbearingly so. I tried their fish and chips because they were battered and I was expecting s Captain D's/Long John Silver taste and I got bland and chalky. The fries were greasy and didn't taste the best. My daughter's hamburger patty was very pale and she status it tasted weird after just one bite. It's very small. Window service or drive thru only. We'll be back though. The hot dog and poppers are worth it.

I ordered their onion straw bbq burger with pepper jack fondue tots. I absolutely loved the tots. They were topped with bacon, the cheese, and chives. DELICIOUS. The burger toppings were all great and complimented the burger; however, the burger was super dry and hard to eat. I didn't finish my burger. I had no issues whatsoever with service. It was great and my food came out hot within a good time period that wasn't too long. I loved the ambiance and all the art at the restaurant and the outside picnic tables for everyone.

The bowl is pretty good, I do wish it came with more of the roasted or grilled vegetables. I find that other than rice and shrimp, the bowl had the most iceberg lettuce which just isn't nearly as exciting as carrots or broccoli, etc where there were only 5 pieces. Not estimating here - that's how many it came with total. I really loved the pepper jelly on the shrimp and the sauce that came on the whole bowl so overall I would order it again because it's a great if you want a light but tasty meal. I've only ever gone through the drive-through, but customer service is always nice.

All gone!
