Hotdog meat sauce the best, great service and prices are reasonable Old diner set up, pretty cool. Only accepts cash

Ive always loved m&m's meatsauce, I stopped yesterday and got a small container for $10, it was the absolute worst! Greasy, watery, it tasted burnt & old. I was extremely disappointed! I gave one star in my opinion dont waste your time & money read more

I'm Back! M&M's Hot's is Elmira! There are tastes from your youth you never forget. I've been coming since the early 1970s and I live in New Mexico now. And when I come home to the Southern Tier and I'm craving a touch of home M&M's never fails. From the steamed buns, the hot dogs, the meat sauce with the mix of onions and mustard this masterpiece of flavor is one of a kind. For weeks before my trip I imagined biting into an M&M's hot. My order, 3 cheese dogs loaded, they did not disappoint! Just as I remembered. My friend a local, decided to have a bacon cheeseburger and he said he would have loved another. The fries are crispy and on point and perfect with ketchup as fries can be. Three of us sat down, ordered 5 cheese dogs loaded, bacon cheeseburger, fries and sodas. Within 5 minutes we were served. The Dead and psychedelic old school rock feeding your head while getting full on old school comfort food. I'm going back again before I leave town. A must when I visit! read more

Andy and his family do an absolute wonderful job at running the place and keeping a friendly face. My family has been going here for years and no one compares to the meat sauce hotdog. read more

M & M Red Hots - Hot Dogs Near Me - Elmira, New York

If you like old school Texas hots, this is the place in Elmira. Same recipe meat sauce as we remember.

Stopped in after the reopening hoping to have a couple of dogs with everything. It wasn't the exact same heavenly sauce but it will do. I may be back. :) read more

I was visiting Elmira for the first time in decades, and wanted to try a local hot dog joint. M & M kept coming up, so we gave it a try. (I'm dating the gal I went to Elmira College with in the mid 70s, and hadn't been back since!). Dirty water dogs, and the way to get them is with mustard, onion, and their meat sauce. Quite good. Mild flavor (they should serve them hotter, and the g/f's sauerkraut also wasn't hot enough) but above average. Decent fries, cooked to order. Friendly service. GREAT music, some obscure Grateful Dead stuff. Clean? I mean SPOTLESS, including the restrooms. Ample on street parking. Not expensive at $3.25 for an 8/1 skinless dog with toppings. Personable staff. For sure the place to visit if you want a hot dog in Elmira. read more

The cash only places are alway the best and this is no exception. Crazy good simple hotdog with an awesome meat sauce. Super friendly staff with very friendly prices. read more

M & M Red Hots - Hot Dogs Near Me - Elmira, New York

The best things are the historical interest and the crazy fast service. We ordered three meat sauce hots and cokes and had them in about 60 seconds. Then we mused about their history while we chowed down hots like my dad probably ate there when he lived in elmira in the 1940s. They've been open 95 years. About the hots...the style is boiled dogs on steamed buns. Toppings are meat sauce, onions and mustard. Ketchup is on the counter too. I recommend loading up. This is the style of super fast cheap food of the 1920's, 30's and 40's. I must admit I'm partial to time machine diners. read more

So hard to review M&M, this is home, it's as Elmira as Mark Twain. It's just part of who we are. Great stop for lunch. My kids love sitting at the long lunch bar. If you haven't been, it's well worth the visit. read more

Best hot dogs around, their meat sauce is better than all the rest! Would recommend them to anyone! Wonderful family owned business that everyone flocks to! There aren't too many places that I would stand in line just to get a bite to eat, but I would gladly wait in a long line to get one of their delicious dogs smothered with meat sauce!!! read more

I came here as a kid visiting relatives from out of state and always thought their dogs with the meat sauce were the best I've had (I've had a lot of this style of dog). I recently returned and had them again and as always they were amazing. They were not cheap, I believe about 3 dollars a dog, however, they are worth it. Last point, they make your order in about one minute which is amazing. Came again 2017, great as always. Really nice people as always and food was great. read more

You have not truly had a hot dog until you have had a "Texas Hot with Everything" at M&M's. There is no place in New England, let alone Boston that comes even close to the absolute scrumptiousness of their meat sauce. Mmmmm! read more

M&M is open for business again! Just re-opened first week of June. Same great hot dogs, same great service. read more

Sometimes all you need is a couple of hot dogs and a side of fries to have the perfect meal. M&M red hots will fulfill this craving perfectly. A great old school joint, complete with staff that have a unique language for relaying orders, and a shape bar to eat at and tasty toppings for the hots. Come in for hot dogs and leave satisfied. read more

Great place to eat or even take out but now that they are closed, they are missed and I'm sure that not only I miss M&M hot dogs is missed dearly and we all want you to open back up for Elmira people and everyone else from many areas would really hope that you reopen and reopen soon. read more

M&M Hots is a staple in Elmira as i have been going there for over 30 years. Great hot dogs with fantastic meat sauce. You'll be Grateful U R not dead. You must go here to get this. read more

By far the best Texas Red Hots I have ever had, period. My father started going here in the 30's, he would bring me here in the 60's. When dad's in town he still goes here. I have lived in Chicago for the last 15 years and Chicago knows hot dogs but if I'm on the east coast for something I make my way to Elmira for the M&M. Any establishment that can be open this long has to know a good dog! read more

Excellent burgers and hot dogs! Old school counter. Great, simple American food. Nice service.

Great nostalgic hot dogs with meat sauce! Never a disappointment!

Very great "Texas Hot" - hot dogs. One of the few must stop places to visit while in Elmira, NY.

Have been going there 60 yrs and have never been disappointed. Good food,fast service, affordable prices,pleasant people .

Good standard Texas hots. Nothing special except that this type of place is disappearing. Go for the dogs with onion and mustard; not the atmosphere. A Grateful Dead theme; really? read more

Best hotdogs with meat sauce and a chocolate milk. Fries on the side. Absolutely mouth watering..can't eat just one though. Great 5o get the meat sauce to go for parties. Yeppp...an Elmira icon.. read more

Simple, yet complex. Common but qui a bon quot., The perfect juxtaposition of meat sauce, mustard & weinie. Poetry and sculpture, all with a Grateful Dead flair. As good as it gets anywhere, hot dog wise read more

The hot dogs with that sauce they got snacks like nothing else you can get in Elmira for the price. Love taking the kids here since hot dogs are something easy that they all can agree on:) read more

Have you heard of their meet sauce?!?! Well you should have if your from Elmira! Love the hot dogs ... Try the grilled cheese with meat sauce! read more

M & M Red Hots - Grilled cheese with meat sauce and fries! - Hot Dogs Near Me - Elmira, New York

I hate hot dogs, never liked them as a kid, or as an adult...EXCEPT M&M hots, they are to die for and still taste as good as they did when Grandpa used to get them. The french fries are the best in town and taste like fries are supposed to taste. Once you've had the best hotdog with the best meatsauce on earth you just can't eat them anywhere else. I travel a lot and as soon as I would come home I would head straight for them and so do the other members of my family. Love the family that runs this place, always a good word! Thank you for all the happy memories and the fantastic food!! Don't change anything! read more

Been to the others, and like them too... but THIS place has the BEST texas-style meatsauce-mustard-onions hot dogs! We usually order one fries -crispy, but not too; and one onion rings -crispy REAL and a good portion of both of them.. and two (okay, sometimes three) "with everything"s for each of us. We're stuffed and happy by the time we leave. You can get lunch here for under $10, but I'd recommend spending just a bit more to go "all in" and really enjoy what they offer... and yep, the service is SO fast, you'll get back to work with time to spare! They still have flavored sodas as well as the usual suspects, and they are all friendly to everyone (even the fussy kids we saw once; one wouldn't eat the hot dog itself, the other wouldn't eat the bun! poor dad was obviously frustrated trying to share his fave lunch with them, lol) We're always chagrined when we arrive to discover we've forgotten they take a vacation once a year! ...well, that'll happen when you have loyal staff who're more like family to both owners and customers! read more

Very good Texas hots. A must stop if you are in the Elmira area. I have been having texas hots from here since I was a kid

Great little place in sadly decaying downtown Elmira....seriously delicious meat sauce (more meat than sauce actually)....totally unique and totally delectable .....a real locals place too....and a major glimpse of history...can't love it enough! read more

I used to go here all the time as a kid and love the red hots with everything. Ive moved from the area but whenever i go to visit home i always stop to get those familiar red hots. Nothing close to them anywhere else. read more

Sure, they've gotten a little pricy. But the dollars-to-meat ratio is as good as anything you will find. Have mints on hand for your breath, and a defibrillator just to be on the safe side. So good. So very good. I always go in intending to have two. Maybe without onions. Five or six hot dogs with everything later, I'm ready for a nap. read more

left elmira 10 yrs ago still miss those wonderful dogs
