On the way home from Norfolk today, driving along the Princess Anne Road route, my vehicle made a…read morequick U Turn when we remembered that Lew's Hot Dogs was closing permanently on October 31st. It's one of the few old school Hot Dog Shops that still feature the iconic Norfolk Dog. The spot closes at 3pm each day. There was plenty of time to stop. The location is on Azalea Garden Road about 2 blocks north of Princess Anne Road. Don't expect a picturesque spot. This building is located in the midst of warehouses, car repair shops & such. Lew's was obviously packed with people wanting those few last days of the wonderful Norfolk Dogs. Parking was around the front & side of the shop & on the street. Even the "no parking" area was filled. We stepped directly into an earlier time. And I loved it. Seating was mainly around the counter. I would have loved to have eaten there. But we had just had donuts in Ghent. So we ordered at the cramped takeout counter, The cook, who I suspect was the owner's wife, cooked on a small grill near the front window. A young man took the orders, writing each takeout order on a paper bag for the cook. The proprietor busily did everything. He was personable & funny. He had his rules, just like his long gone competitors, We sat at the counter and talked to a customer who had driven down from Arlington. He obviously knew the place well as the owner bantered with him. When our order was ready we left, a little sad that we couldn't stay and eat. It had been so much fun. The Norfolk Dogs were wonderful. They're snap dogs, customarily served only with mustard, chili & onions. Lew's did allow other condiments added, even serving French fries. You could get thrown out of some of his former competitors for asking for catsup or potato chips. There must be a return before they close. I want to sit and eat at the counter. I want to come out with that familiar smell of onions in my hair. By the way, they're still open to selling the shop. It comes with the secret recipe for their chili sauce. Norfolk Dog lovers need this eatery to remain open. Don't let them be lost to time.

Another piece of Norfolks history is set to close at the end of October. Lew's Hot Dogs has been…read morearound as long as I can remember and its closing makes me feel like I'm losing an old Friend. On the way home from the Yelp Event at O's Donuts, I remembered Lew's was closing this weekend. Luckily Lew's was right on our way home so we decided to stop and get orders to go. We walked in to a packed house and lots of others placing orders to go. Cash only signs were posted in several places so I was prepared when it was my turn to order and pay. Everyone was friendly and greeted each other and engaged in conversation. I felt like I had stepped back in time to a kinder, gentler place. I'm very sad that we are losing another piece of Norfolk history. The hotdogs were just as good as I remembered, as well as their French fries. One thing that caught my attention as we waited was the stools at the counter. This old Norfolk girl immediately said to my Friend, "these aren't stools, they are chairs with backs on them just like the lunch counters in Peoples Drug Store and Woolworth's when I was a kid." Loved this little walk down memory lane today. Happy retirement Lew, You will be missed.

This place is great! Will definitely come again!…read more A friend and i went on a whim, just to see, and was pleasantly surprised. I have lived in the area for a majority of my life and had never thought to go in. I am glad I finally did! The restaurant had ample seating, with tables inside and out, along with a long bar to sit. The service was great! Sean was super nice and told us all of his favorite things off of the menu. We ordered a handful of things: - A 1/4 All Beef Hot Sausage: This was my favorite item and Sean's go to on a break. We added chili and mustard and it was absolutely delicious. - A Hot Dog Dietz & Watson: Solid , but nothing to really write home about. It might just be, because it followed a sausage that good. We added chili, mustard, and a bit of onion for this one. - A Pork BBQ Sandwich: Really good! I am not the biggest BBQ fan either, but I plan to try the Chicken BBQ next time. I added coleslaw and onion for this item. I liked their coleslaw a lot, which also surprised me. The only thing I wished was added, was extra sauce. - Buffalo Chicken Sausage: Really good! This was a close second for me. It was not too spicy either. Just right, with onions, chili, and mustard. - Sweet Potato Fries and crinkle fries: I love sweet potato fries and these were good. The crinkle fries were just okay. I wish they did have some seasoning.

There is limited, free parking spots in their lot, which they also share with another restaurant, so be mindful of that. Not sure how street parking is like; it is on a busy street. I arrived before a rush of people, which was around 2:30 pm on a weekday. The inside is a little unassuming but has character and charm. I enjoyed seeing the dog theme decor on the walls. The man working there was welcoming and very friendly! Service was wonderful. There are plenty of hot dogs to choose from, and there are plenty of options for hot and cold toppings. Went with the pittie dogs, fries, and chocolate cheesecake brownie. A good, simple hot dog! Fries were crispy and warm. Brownie was pretty good and sweet. I look forward to trying the other items on the menu like the bratwurst. Another cool thing I noticed is for their rewards system instead of it saying points on the receipt, it says "spots"! How creative and fun is that! I love how they kept the dog theme even for things people often overlook. Definitely a fun, little spot for affordable hot dogs! Try it out for yourselves!

The good news is parking is now plentiful as is an expanded dining room is a positive. The bad is it looks like crap outside with old signage removed and a tarp cover with name. Also the strip is in poor condition with most units vacant and debris all over the windows. I ordered a two chili cheese dog from the owners wife who had always been friendly. They were out of soup about 1.5 before close. She said Kevin has cut back two days and was not in. His son now operates the grill. The price for dogs, fries and drink good at around $10. They give you a number and will call it when ready. The interior had some of the other places posters and car items displayed, but it just did not feel comfortable. My assumption is they just moved in with no updates. Also no longer a bar which I loved. Finally no music which was a hallmark of Kevin's. Bottomline it felt totally sterile, several tables needed to be wiped down and no one was doing this during my visit. No energy whatsoever like the old place. The dogs and fries were good, but did not seem to be as good a my previous visits over years with Kevin slaying the grill. It's now self bus and the trash was overflowing, A 2.5 rounding down and hope to see improvements. To be fair they have been in the new location five or six months. So in my opinion many things should have been sorted out.
