    Working the line

    Hot dog joint gets rated on the hot dog joint scale. I got the Chicago dog all the way with fries. Very delicious. Nice couple worked the kitchen and made my lunch with love and care. I'm not always in a hot dog mood, but when I am, you can't go wrong with Skoogies.

    Fantastic! Parking is easy and staff were super nice and helpful. The hot dogs were great but honestly the fries were my favorite part (glad we ordered the large order). Extremely crispy and seasoned well. Food came out hot and ready in the blink of an eye. Def a place to grab a hot dog/fries for a quick stop if you're craving it! I ordered the chili dog and the chili was super classic. I would've smothered it in cheese and diced onions but we had to do some shopping after and I didn't want to subject any public toilets to me post-cheese.

    A Rubin sandwich and fries

    I would pass. I went because reviews were positive. Others said they believe there are new owners, that may make sense. I was disappointed. First the fountain drink machine was broke, paid for that but got a can of Diet Coke. No big deal but should have received a refund? Ordered a Rubin sandwich and it was the worst I ever had. Super cheap bread, no sauce, just plain bread. It's pretty hard to mess up a Rubin but they succeeded. I swear my coworkers roast beef sandwich was on winder bread. I wanted to like this place but the food was just poor. I was surprised because it was fairly busy with most ordering hot dogs. Guess that was my mistake. On a positive note, the workers were nice.

    Chicago dog! The sport peppers are where it's at.

    My co-worker brought in this amazing-looking egg salad sandwich for lunch and when I asked where it came from she said, "Skoogie's". I needed that sandwich, and headed there immediately after work, as they are only open 11-4. From the outside you get a beachside shake shack kinda vibe, and inside is all Chicago'ed out. I grew up watching WGN from Chicago, so I know the Empire Carpet phone number LOL There are a few tables as you enter and counter seating looking out the front window. The TV was loud as hell, with 2 old guys eating and watching it. Seems legit. The counter guy and the girl making the sandwiches were friendly and welcoming. I told them it was my first time and the guy pointed at the menu taped to the counter. I told him about the joyous egg salad and think he must have remembered the one he sold earlier because he smiled. I also ordered a Homewrecker with chili and onions, a dog with chili, cheese, and onions, and then pointed at the Chicago dog picture and said, "And one just like the picture! And a corndog." Before I could finish my Minute Maid lemonade, the nice girl handed me my bag with a smile. I can already tell I'll be back! Got the food home and bit into my pillowy, creamy egg salad sandwich. Bread so soft, flavor so mild, this is comfort food for sure. The corndog was a corndog. I think it was all-beef. You can't mess up a corndog. Later, my Chicago dog beckoned, and it was amazing! The pickle is mild, the sport peppers zingy, the tomato balancing it all out. Oh man, I need another one. Hubby's dogs were met with rave reviews, the sausage one firm and meaty and the beef dog just perfect. Chili was great, just the right amount of onion. He loves to eat the tubular meats, so we will definitely return.

    Best Hotdogs in Charleston

    I usually drive 45 minutes to get hotdogs from here! They honestly have the best hotdogs in Charleston! Great stop if you're on your way to Sullivans Island or IOP for drinks.

    Wow., what a hidden gem in MT-Pleasant! Tucked away behind Dunkin is this legendary Chicago style hot dog shop that not only has some of the best tasting dogs around the Charleston area. And some amazing friendly knowledgeable workers that some have been working here for over twenty years! This joint is very casual with some vintage Americana charm on the outside and the interior too. You can pretty much order your hotdog whichever way you tell them to make and with your choice of the small or larger size dogs....Side note: there is other food options on this simple menu and the hours are not friendly for you late night types but good for lunch and early afternoon only. Overall. It's my new goto fix for a quick yummy afternoon dog...kinda reminded me of some of the Midwest hole in the wall shops in Illinois/Indiana:)

    OMG! How did I just discover this place?…read more We stopped by Mozzo Deli in Mount Pleasant for lunch on a Friday, expecting it to be busy, and it definitely was. It's located in a shopping center at the end of a strip of restaurants, so it looks pretty unassuming from the outside. There were about four people ahead of us in line, and it took around 10 minutes to place our order. After paying at the cashier, we found a table, and our food arrived about 10 minutes later, which felt reasonable for the lunch rush. The employee who brought our food confirmed our order and later checked back to see how everything was. The food was the highlight of the visit. The coleslaw was delicious, the tortellini salad was good, and my husband really enjoyed his Cuban sandwich. My burger (the rock), though, was one of the best I've ever had. It was incredibly juicy and flavorful, especially considering it was cooked on a griddle instead of a grill. Meals come with the main item, and you can order sides separately if you want them. The menu is extensive, with burgers, sandwiches, salads, build-your-own options, and even breakfast items. The only downside is that if you come during the lunch rush, you may have to wait for a table. Even so, the food made it well worth the visit, and I'd definitely go back for that burger.

Ordered the bacon, egg and cheese on croissant. It was delicious. Eggs were just right, as was bacon, and the cheese was perfectly melted. The croissant was flaky and buttery.

I will say right off the bat, we had a weird experience with service. It was definitely a one off situation because they were hosting a private party for a group later that day, but it could have been handled way better than it was. Our server was excellent though and was trying to be accomodating, but it seemed her hands were tied. More importantly, the Lobster Roll lives up to all the hype online. It was almost a cross between a CT and ME style because it still had a very light mayo base, but was then coated it warm butter as too. The combination worked perfectly and I would say it's better than some of the lobster rolls I just recently had in Boston. We started with the Fig & Brie melt and it was stellar as well. I wasn't sure what to expect, but the warm brie was served on top of a blueberry compote in a mini cast iron skillet. The they surrounded it with sliced baguette pieces to dip. There was only two of us but you could easily share this as an app with four. Next time I come back it will be difficult to order anything else because the food was that good.

    This is based on an UberEats order--I ordered the smaller portion of the Apollo sandwich, which…read moreended up being the perfect portion size for me. It was pretty good taste-wise. And I really liked the Formula 45 sauce. I ordered a chicken salad as well (no tomatoes or fiesta power blend). The chicken tasted a little funny so I didn't finish the salad.

    I decided to stop by Groucho's for lunch before work recently. My immediate opinion upon arrival…read morewas the inside appearance was outdated, dirty and it needed a refresh. The service counter setup was confusing, as there are 2 registers but each facing a different direction. The staff immediately said hi, but never said which register to take my order as he was on the phone. Another staff member then arrived and took my order at the other register. I ordered the apollo dipper, and said I'd eat in. The seating options are a little sparse for one. There were a few tables for 4 or more, but not enough 2 tops. There is a long counter to sit, but I did not find it appealing and sat at the two top. The chairs look dirty, as the back supports had a dirty appearance from all the hands. My chair was also wobbly. Then I noticed the napkin dispenser on the table was dirty with dust. All this validated my initial opinion when entering. My order arrived, but in a to go bag. No problem, I stayed and ate it. Overall the sandwich was ok, with a soft warm bun. The melted cheese covered the turkey and ham below. I can't say the sandwich was very flavorful, so the Formula 45 sauce added flavor. Before leaving, I used the restroom and was not surprised by how dirty it was. Lots of dust on the top of toilet tank and the handicap bars. Then residual dried water spots under the paper dispenser and wall where the trash can was sitting. No effort here. I really don't like giving a review like this, but it was disappointing. I have visited Groucho's in the Columbia area and they were much better. While food taste and value usually come first, the appearance (cleanliness) also contributes to the experience. I've read other reviews that share similar experiences, so this is not a solitary moment. Hopefully feedback helps, maybe owners/managers will see the need to react to concerns. Unfortunately, I will not likely return.
