Fountain soda has the usual suspects, plus red birch beer which I had to get since you don't see it everywhere! Fries were hot and super crispy, with a nice soft fluffy interior.

The family that runs the truck are very friendly, and clearly appreciate every single customer. The adult entertainment store parking lot location just adds to the "Jerseyness" ambiance of the place in the best possible way. There are very few hot dog places where I omit the onions, mustard, cheese from my chili dog, but here I go with a naked dog and just chili. Their chili is really that good.

This is one of those places where I must've passed by 100 times already before finally stopping in and I'm pretty stoked that I did too because this little food truck puts out some seriously tremendously tasty food. In fact some people say it's one of the top hot dog vendors in Jerzey.    So it's 2 Chilli Cheese Dogs and an ice cold Root Beer for me thanks, and you bet I know just what to do with all of that classic deliciousness, Lol!! Man o man that's what I'm talkin bout. Yup, by my estimation it's "Officially" Summertime Yummertime my friends. Better late than never.

I love hot dogs and gave this spot a try! When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked…read moreinto a nice spot. I was greeted and ordered. I ordered: Coffee milkshake Hot Mac (with mac & cheese, red Hot, crispy onion Not Hot dog (vegan) the dawg (chili, dawg sauce, crispy onion, Sriracha dawg dust) gravy cheese fries with dawg dust Mac and cheese I really enjoyed the coffee milkshake! I also liked the hot mac. The mac and cheese alone was ok and so were the fries. I liked that they had a vegan option as well. All in all it was a good experience!

If you're not in the mood for a dog they have other stuff too, like Mac and cheese topped with pulled pork Doug, the owner, was a really nice guy also. Eric (from Cultinary Road Trip) and I planned to eat and get going, maybe a half hour stop at the max. I think we were there like 2 hours talking! Dogs we tried were: 1. all the way - chili, onion, mustard 2. the en fuego - hot pepper relish, hot onions, sriracha, red pepper flakes, mustard 3. Oregon Trail - baked beans, bacon, cheese, potato stix 4. Buff-Aloe - Franks Red Hot, blue cheese dressing, potato stix, celery seed 5. Vermont Bob - bacon, sauerkraut, maple syrup (had to get Quebec Eric some maple syrup...he was starting to shake haha) Video is out now, but these were all super tasty. Dawg house absolutely - Didn't Suck!

My favorite hot dog spot in Essex County. Anthony serves up delicious dawgs (try the hot potato…read moremash!). Small place, no interior seating.

I don't expect this small business to grind meat and make its own hot dogs - or bake fresh buns. It is what it is, and there is no surprise. Value for the price in my opinion. Got exactly what I expected, and exactly what I came for. Hot dogs, a variety of toppings, fries, drink. Period. THOROUGHLY enjoyed the dogs, the fries, the drinks. Will absolutely return. Also, VERY nice staff, good conversation. You want a dog, etc? Go. Enjoy.

No snap to it and nothing done to the Weiner to make it 'theirs.' The real winner in my hot dog was the mild chili; I think they make it there. I was sad with the disco fries. I hoped it they were fresh, but the fries came out of the frozen fridge - also, the gravy, there was something...... Package-y tasting - which can be fine, but I can do that at home. Ample sitting inside and out. Also, if noise isn't your thing, the hot dog house is sitting in front of Rt 17 and the planes land loudly nearby (Terterboro). They accept card for a small fee.

I was sorely disappointed. 3 Stars on the strength of the cheeseburger which MIGHT have me back to try the food again... perhaps today was an off day.

Those deliciously loaded Dogs I ordered were JJ's Belly Busters and had plenty of Hot Onions, Sauerkraut, Cheese, Hot Chili, and Spicy Mustard. Definitely the best loaded Hot Dogs I've had in a while. The Dog itself was flavorful and had a perfect bite to it. Buns were hearty and didn't split or fall apart like some other places, even though they were overloaded which left me very impressed. I really thought the inside of my to- go bag was gonna be a total mess but as you can see everything stayed put nicely. Friendly Service at this small but functional spot which has very few indoor seating options but it's mostly a grab and go kinda place.
