    Burger
    Jennifer H.

    So a friend and I stopped here on our road trip from the Raleigh/Durham area to the Mountains, I was intrigued when my friend shared how diverse the menu was(I was a first timer! The restaurant was extremely busy but it was very well kept! I was so impressed at how clean it was! I will say that that there was slim to no organization and/or initiative from the employees who were taking the food orders and you could not hear the person calling well the order was ready for pick up. My food was decent-I made my own burger and got a side of fries and a drink. I thought it was reasonably priced but the customer service and efficiency needs work in my opinion.

    Add the Texas Pete generously
    Fred B.

    I came to pick up some of the seasonal soup, Dairi-o just added back to their menu. I had some last week at their Asheboro location, and I loved it. 12 ounces for $5.99. It is much more a stew than a soup, thick a bit mild, but very flavorful. It consists of ground beef, black beans, pinto beans, chopped white onion, chili powder, herbs and spices, and a touch of garlic. I added shredded cheese, and I thought it added a lot. In fact, next time, and that will be soon, I will ask for the cheese to be double - a single serving was 50 cents. I also added a packet of Texas Pete at various times as I ate the chili, nice heat level. You get saltines and sour cream, all comes together well. I recommend this dish, come and enjoy.

    Hot dog, fries, Chocolate Milkshake
    Michaela H.

    Absolutely nothing beats a hot dog meal paired with a chocolate milkshake from Dairi-O !! The food is always so good and the service here is great, I also really like how they operate the drive thru line at this location because it's much faster service than most fast food restaurants in Clemmons.

    Hot Fudge Cake Sundae
    Jillian S.

    Updating my review since we continue to rave about Dairi-O. Especially the ice cream, but we also enjoy the chicken, burgers, hotdogs, and salads. We always make a point to stop here when traveling through the area. Typically I opt for the apple crisp salad with fried chicken, fries, and ice cream. Even when busy, they maintain an efficient workflow with great customer service. Only issue is that they continue to put cheese on the salad no matter how many times I ask for no cheese. Since the salads are likely prepped in advance, I suggest a separate package/section for the cheese. Nonetheless, the salads here are large, crisp, and tasty. They give the impression that I'm eating healthy alongside the salty crinkle fries and creamy ice cream. Most recently we tried the decadent hot fudge cake ice cream sundae!

    Happy Halloween!

    First time going to this location, but I've been to this restaurant several times before. I am always impressed at how busy this place is no matter what time of day you're here. The service is great as always. The drive-through line is long, but seems to move fairly quick. On this visit, I opted to try the all beef foot-long 1/3 pound hotdog combo with onion rings. YOUNG and rings were amazing and made fresh to order taste it just like homemade. Hotdog is always was amazing this time I got it fully dressed, which comes with mustard, onion chili and slaw. My wife got the two dog combo with french fries along with mustard and onion on the hotdogs. I have yet to try the dessert menu of Sundae's and shakes as I am never still hungry after I eat the meal, but one day we'll have to try it. They look amazing. Definitely recommend that only this restaurant at this location as I will be coming back in the future.

    Dairi-O is a local favorite! Food is always fresh and hot and I have yet to find something I don't like on the menu. Their burgers and hotdogs are amazing and they have several topping options to choose from. Chili is great quality as well. I often time get the chicken strips-they're white breast chicken and not full of fillers like what you'd imagine at a fast food restaurant. The homemade ranch is also a showstopper. Definitely stop by, you won't be disappointed. This location is consistently great and is conveniently located.

    Banana pudding ice cream
    Gracie M.

    Outstanding service at the Clemmons location! I placed my order at 5:08 and received my burger by 5:09- made to order mind you. I've been to Dairi-O a few times, and this location most of the time, and I've never been dissatisfied. But the food tonight was especially good to me. I tried the banana pudding ice cream for the first time and it was SO good, I almost got another. I enjoyed my meal inside tonight too, which I normally don't, but the restaurant is quite spacious and they have a variety of seating arrangements to accommodate multiple group sizes. I also liked how they call out your order over the speakers.

    Only 30 cent up charge for sweet potato fries
    Kellie D.

    We stopped here on a road trip on Memorial Day with our teenage son and his girlfriend. First of all, the signage from the interstate to Dair-o was fabulous. There was a sign at every turn telling you which way to go. We were amazed that the parking lot was packed when we arrived as it was well after 1 pm. The place gave off a very Chick-fil-a vibe -- spacious, clean, great service and a red and white motif. It was a hard decision whether to go with ice cream or a meal. I've had their soft serve before which was fabulous but decided to go with their chicken souvlaki combo which sweet potato fries. The souvlaki had plenty of peppers and onions with a better flavor than I expected. Tatziki was good and I loved the waffle sweet potato fries. Husband enjoyed his burger and son liked his chicken tenders. We first heard about this place from our vegetarian daughter -- great that they have vegetarian options. We'll definitely stop again if in the area. Please bring one to Raleigh!

    The drive through here can be a bit busy sometimes with the interstate so close by. Other than the sometimes longer busier waits, the service is good. It's on par with all Dairi-O for food. Great ice creams and burgers, fries, shakes

Drinks are big thou they are packed with ice. Food selection is pretty diverse as they have e something for everyone's taste. They also offer some great value specials for those on a budget. We started with the trio appetizer, doubling up on the chicken wonton tacos and some fried pickles. The wontons were actually really good and not a bad combination of ingredients. The fried pickles were in strips which was different. They were a bit salty but then again it's pickles! My friend got the cheeseburger wonton tacos. She thought it was a bit spicy but they were perfect for me. I would order those next time. My wife got the sweet Asian chili wings, she was bummed that she only got drumsticks and not one wing.....lol. She did like the ratio of sweet and spicy on them. I got the lemon chicken with mashed potatoes and broccoli, that's right, this fat guy ate healthy for once! The chicken was not overcooked and you could definitely taste the lemon in every bite. It was a big piece too so it filled me up. Broccoli was soft and tender and the mashed potatoes had soaked up the juices from the chicken so it made them that much better. Wifey liked the margarita so I will take her word on it. Overall great experience. Had not been here in a minute.

Which she loved and came out looking great. Very fresh with all the trimmings in a nice big bun. She said she's definitely get that again. Pay at the counter and I was pleased it wasn't a lunch that cost more than $15. With tip. Great spot and shame on me for but coming here earlier! Definitely added to my lunch rotation.

As the name suggests, this is still an operation focused on takeaway dining, though there are some tables available on the sidewalk outside. I'd end up taking my food home on this trip though. Once again I decided to sample the Chicago-style hot dogs offered here. And there have been improvements since my first visit. The product now comes on an actual poppy seed bun, as it should. I don't think the bun was steamed though and that hurts the texture. The hot dog itself had a good snap and taste, and the through-the-garden toppings were loaded well onto the bun. Something's still missing about the overall taste though, as these simply don't measure up to other Chicago-style hot dogs I've had -- including many far away from Chicago. The build of the sandwich looks closer to being correct than it did five years ago, but the flavors are still wrong, and I wish they'd work to figure out what it is they're missing. I placed my order on site rather than calling it in, and the young lady at the counter was pleasant. It took a little longer than I'd expected for the kitchen to prepare my order; maybe they just don't get many requests for the Windy City dog and they're just not well versed in putting it together? This latest experience leaves me scoring Joe's somewhere between two and three stars, and though the food was better than last time I still lean towards the lower side of that range. Maybe their more Carolina-themed food would be better and result in a higher rating, but there are already plenty of places I can go locally for a hot dog fixed "our way," many of which would be at a more competitive price point and with better options for drinks and seating. I wanted to try Joe's because of the hot dog options they have that aren't widely represented elsewhere in this area, and in those respects I still can't find much to love here.

There are plenty of tasty sides, and I love the Street Corn, the Collards, the Fried Okra, and Mac & Cheese. Joe's is the type of locally owned restaurant that I love to support. The food and service are first rate. Because it has little street visibility, it's location, is small with no inside seating, and is take out, a number of folks will never give this place a visit, and that's a shame. The burger here is as good as those at Alex's, Bobo's, Mr BBQ, and Dairi-o. The hot dogs are as good as those at Dairi-o, Mr BBQ, and Kermit's, and very close to those at PB's. The Beef Brisket is as good as any in the area, and far better than the vast majority. I highly recommend and hope you will visit.
