    I was really disappointed in my entire experience here. Astro Dogs is part of the outdoor shipping…read morecontainer food hall located in the Cargo District with outdoor seating available. A casual space to enjoy the great weather. Even thought its counter serve, they should ask if it's first time and explain the menu to you. The guy who took my order was patient, but an overview of the menu would have been helpful. But the main reason why I'm disappointed is because there is not near as many French fries on the corn dog as the picture shows. I get food doesn't always look like the pictures, but they are extremely overselling how many fries come on the corn dogs - almost half my dog was missing fries! Also, I asked for my sauces on the side and they come in such tiny cups which don't include near enough sauce but also the opening is entirely too small to fit the corn dog into, making it difficult to dip. I also got passion fruit boba tea which had real passion fruit pieces in it - this is not advertised and takes away from the boba. Overall, this place is gimmicky and people just go for the novelty.

    My husband just asked me what got into me. He said this is outside of my normal repertoire…read moreI maybe average five hot dogs all year. This is the best hotdog I think I've ever had. It's breaded like a corndog, then coated in potatoes and then drizzled with ketchup. It's a sweet batter and the all beef hot dog really stands out. It's so rich you could easily split it between 2 people. I also ordered the elote style corn which is also amazing.

    Go inside- plenty of tvs, under-cranked ceiling fans - it screams less "restaurant" and more "your…read morefriend with the great garage." Names are stated, not numbers..which is personal, but perhaps a little prone to misheard orders.. "SEAN/JOHN/DON!" I think there are places in which by the time your order hits..it feels like you're in the middle of trying to make a gallery of orgami napkins... But the Grille isn't that..it moves at a steady breeze, carrying a gallery of food that could feed a small boar. But enough about the ambiance, you're probably here for exactly two things, and I'll name fries to make the review more succinct. You know, the logo cartoon is a bit.. funny. I'm like, "there's no way I'd want to take my lower jaw to such extreme positions!" But then I bit into the burger. That was my first mistake. To eat a Grille burger here is like falling in love, only to realize that the person loves me more than I ever could her. Naturally, I dropped my engagement ring. But not the burger. Whoever flips these needs a raise. Burger King throws them into the microwave or whatever and then tries to add "char" effects, which has the taste of imitation crab being dropped in a ash-heap. But PT's. Words can't do it justice, but I'm going to try. The beef seemed fairly rotated, unlike my arm during bowling. Crisp. Sweet. Layered. Crunchy. My jaw was getting oddly closer to the surrealistic logo that I thought I was above. Naturally, I ate the fries before picking up my engagement ring. I asked her if she could be my wife...And she responded "No, I am just your food induced hallucination that comes from having the best Burger on Earth. " As the stars faded from my eyes, I realized... you can take back a vow, but you can never take back the sheer amazement of picking your jaw off the floor to keep the food from escaping the confines of the pain of love and loss. Or you just like the food- we've all been there. :)

    Solid quick service spot in Leland. Order at the counter by marking off what you want on their menu…read morepad and pay when you're done. Each sandwich comes with fries and a drink. Good burgers, big fan of their grilled cheese which is made on a burger bun and chicken tenders and fries for the little one. Their lemonade is fresh with real lemons. Prices are affordable and all of the employees were helpful and friendly.

It was fun just hanging out in the car and the nostalgic vibe. Since it's a burger house, we ordered burgers, fries, a vanilla milkshake and a bottled soda. It was around $21. It is cash only! The burger was just okay and could've used a bit more flavor. The fries were good and my son loved the milkshake. Next time I might try a hot dog since that seems like another popular item. Overall, the food isn't amazing, but the experience and nostalgic atmosphere made it worth the visit.

    OK, this is the quickest turnaround for a review I've ever provided. I actually just left Merritt's…read moreBurger house not even five minutes ago. A little bit of a backstory - every month or two I crave a good chili, slaw, and ketchup hotdog (I know, not quite Carolina style) - and I'm determined to find one as good as the place in my hometown in Charleston. So far, I've never been close. Until today. And I've been on this mission for about 10 years. After hearing from a bunch of Wilmington locals that this is the place I should try, I was finally able to go today. They are open I believe from 10 to 4 Monday through Saturday. Cash only. You drive up to a parking spot. Park. Roll down your window. And wait for the people to come take your order. I believe I came at one of the busiest times ever - I think every single parking spot was full. But the lady saw that I pulled in and she was over to take my order as soon as reasonably possible. I only had a $20 bill so I was worried about how much I could order. Oh my gosh! What a silly concern. I was able to get two hotdogs the way I like it with chili, slaw, and ketchup, I also ordered a plain hotdog for my dog, and she rang it up just as a wiener that has no bun. Perfect. She told me that I would still have money left over with my $20 bill to get fries and even a drink. I ordered a Diet Coke and I was surprised that it came out in a beautiful wonderful bottle! Delicious! And the fries are crinkle cut fries! You won't even believe me when I tell you that that entire order was $11.75. I was amazed! It probably took about 10 minutes to receive my food. But it's a nice day and I was just chilling in the car until it was ready. Not a bad weight when we have our phones, music on the radio, and especially if you were in the car with some friends or family members like many people were today. I've already eaten one hotdog and it is absolutely delicious. The slaw is finely chopped and sweet. It adds such a nice touch to the hot dog. And the chili is actually on point. Also finely ground. The hotdogs are that bright red style that is common around eastern North Carolina. I know that is some people's preference, but I will say that the look has always scared me and I've actually stayed away from a lot of places that serve the style of hot dog. Well, that was foolish. This thing was so good. Probably the best hotdog so far that I have had in the state of North Carolina, and believe me, I have tried hotdogs across the state and surrounding ones. So happy I found you, Merrits burger house! I will definitely be back! And thank you to my amazing waitress today.

    Smoky Chicken That Needs No Sauce!…read more We popped into Papi's Peruvian Chicken on a Sunday, hoping to beat the church crowd, but it turns out, the real blessing was waiting inside. As soon as we pulled into the parking lot, my buddy leaned over and said, "Man, someone's smoking something and it smells delicious." When we stepped inside, his grin got even bigger as he turned to me and said, "It's this place, great choice!" We both went for the smoked dark quarter with street corn salad. My buddy chose green beans, and I went with the Inca pork beans. I asked the woman at the counter to recommend a sauce, and she took the time to explain each one, patiently answering all my basic questions. It turns out, the chicken didn't need any sauce at all. It was smoky, moist, and packed with flavor--crispy on the outside with a deep, wood-fired taste that lingered with every bite. The Inca pork beans were hearty and full of flavor, a solid sidekick to the main event. The street corn salad, while fresh, could have used a bit more kick--maybe a sprinkle of cheese or a dash of lime to brighten it up. The interior's industrial strip mall vibe is functional but could benefit from a few authentic touches--like Peruvian art or music--to match the rich flavors coming out of the kitchen. If you're craving smoky, fall-off-the-bone chicken, Papi's Peruvian Chicken is worth the trip. I'll definitely be back to try more!

    Terrible. Sitting in and dripping with grease. Threw everything in the trash where it belongs.read more
