    Chili dog tasted like a gas station burrito, sauerkraut tasted like microwaved fish, and the fries were undercooked and floppy. 3 items cost me more than $20 and I threw more than half away. Never coming back. Also took 10 minutes for my food and the place was almost empty How can you F up hot dogs so bad, zero stars

    I havent been here for over 20 years.. I came here once because my friend said they have the best hot dog. Met up with my friend for 2nd run. I know this place have been here for a while and they are known for their "griled" hot dogs.. Ordered two foot long with everything that comes on "free" added. Little over $15 for two hot dogs, I don't know I felt like it was bit pricey. Over all hot dog was pretty good. I guess it's better than average hot dog but I don't know if it's worth the money or trip for me. Probably why I haven't been here over 20 years. Over all not bad.. I probably won't be coming back.

    The best hot dogs !!! Honestly... we drive from downtown Phoenix to Ted's often. Love everything! But I always just get the all beef. The chili sauce is the best!! My husband loves the corn dogs. A classic place. A must!!

    They've changed up the order process, and prices have gone up across the board but it's Ted's

    I have lived in Arizona for over 10 years and have known about Ted's and its long-standing history in Tempe and finally tried it. Other than the fact that it was pricier than I expected for a hot dog stand, wish I would've tried Ted's sooner. I love hot dogs - and I love this place and their grilled hot dogs!! I was surprised to learn that they have more than hot dogs - burgers, chicken sandwiches, ice cream, shakes, onion rings, etc. The onion rings were also a highlight. I enjoyed it so much that i came back the very next day! And even better- I learned that they are even opening a second location in Arizona in Gilbert!! Closer to me! So, maybe - I did learn about Ted's just in time...

    Holy YUM! Probably best chili cheese fries I've ever had. I literally dream about my next trip to Phoenix so I can go here lol. Hot dog was also sooo good! Their house made sauce they put on top was so flavorful but didnt take away from the hot dog itself. Staff was also very kind, it was our first time there so we were confused on how to order but they helped us. Very spacious but very quiet inside haha.

    All beef hot dog with chili and all the toppings

    Been driving by Ted's for years and finally decided to place an order a couple of days ago. It was so great to be able to order and quickly pick it up. It was late and the door was locked, but the staff opened up the door and gave me my order. I took a few bites before driving off and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of toppings and the real taste of chili and beef. Every bite was simple, but delicious! I love that they are right up the street. So, whenever the craving hits I will be there!

    Best hot dogs in Phoenix! The service is always quick, and everything's made fresh right in front of you. You order at the counter, and while they cook your hot dog, you can pick your sides from the toppings right in view. I love that you can ask for extra onions or pickles at no extra charge. It's a classic sit-down spot with a vintage feel, full of fun photos from the owner and quirky touches like a signed photo of an astronaut who wrote his love for Ted's Hot Dogs. The whole place has a nostalgic, hometown vibe, perfect for a quick, delicious stop.

    5pack hot dogs, potato salad, fried pickles, chocolate milkshake

    The hot dogs were very good! They are cooked over charcoal and have a very nice flavor. We got a good mix of toppings on the hot dogs. The chili was delicious. I personally did not love the cheese, I thought it was too salty, but my partner really liked it! The potato salad tasted very fresh. The fried pickles were so good. The service felt very homey and nice. It is cute inside, has a rustic and a bit of a throwback diner vibe inside. We will definitely be back the next time we're in Tempe!

    Veggie dog and hot dog
    Hannah C.

    3.5 stars. I had the veggie dog, so i think it'll be safe to say it's hard to be impressed there. My boyfriend, however had the all beef hot dog and topped it with onions, chili and cheese sauce. He has a similar rating of his hot dog. However, the onion rings were incredible and the Mac and cheese was pretty good. A fairly expensive meal for some hot dogs. Awesome spot, the service was quick and the decor felt simple and nostalgic. No need to go out of your way.

    Ted's has gone way down hill from its glory days. Dogs and chili fries were decent and overpriced. Won't be returning anytime soon.

    Hands-down, one of the best burger places anywhere on earth!…read more Everything is cooked over Mesquite right in front of you. The food is fabulous and this place has been an institution since the 1970s. You order, they cook and you eat after dressing up your burger at the toppings bar. They know how to run a food line as you never have to wait too long for your mesquite-grilled magnificent meal! And, as a bonus, their fries and onion rings are awesome! Bring cash, because that's all they accept! And, don't expect much from the place as it is college-kid chic!

    First time coming and loved the whole experience and vibe of this clearly classic gem. My mom used…read moreto come here when she was at ASU and glad to see the vibes are the same! It's a no frills small joint that's been slinging food here for decades. I got the bacon cheese burger, fries and a coke. Simple, yet all I need with a burger. I loved how they do the bacon here too. It's not strips of bacon but instead a circle of bacon. So good and crispy! The condiments are self serve in this middle area and you shout your order when it's your turn and then wait for your burger to come up then grab a tray, your burger, drink and side. I love a nostalgic place, and this is def that! It was packed when we got there but don't fret. Line moves fast and people eat and then get out knowing it's a place you eat and then move on.
