There are options for turkey or pork for those that want them, but it is hard to beat a Nathan's hot dog. Especially when the rest of the package is well done. Soft bun that holds up well (would be even nicer if grilled with butter), meaty chili that isn't runny, cole slaw that isn't heavy on mayo or runny, and the aforementioned quality dog. Onion rings are excellent as well, and you can't argue with the price. Customer service was super friendly and fast, A+ If you're looking for a new restaurant, this ain't it. It's a hot dog joint in the simplest terms. The restaurant inside and out is old, very old. The area where you eat and they cook appears clean enough, and the health score is an A. The bathrooms, are in a word, dingy. Old stained fixtures, surfaces, etc. I wouldn't recommend it, and would definitely recommend a cheap reno in there. That said, can't argue with the most important thing, the hot dogs! Keep doing your thing Jimmy's.

Ordered an order of crinkle fries and sweet potato fries to share amongst us. Burgers were great. Crinkle fries were good. Unfortunately tonight the sweet potato fries were over cooked, which was really unusual. Just didn't have the good flavor well grown to expect. Bunch of folks at Al's tonight, so while the crew was hustling there was a little bit of a longer wait. But no big hurry since we were enjoying the company while sipping our ice teas. Would I came back? Yep, one of our favorite places to go grab a burger. Would I recommend to family and friends? Yep. Have even occasionally brought folks out to Alls when they're in town and want to grab a burger. (Especially if they're paying. ) BTW, I would have scored them higher, but I was a little disappointed in tonight's sweet potato fries.

I ordered the Shroom & Swiss burger (beef patty, Swiss cheese, sautéed mushrooms, lettuce, roasted garlic aioli). It was solid--cooked to order and reasonably priced. Service was fast and friendly, and they brought the food right to our table. That said, it didn't quite wow me.

We also shared a plate of three sides, originally wanted the fried green tomatoes, but they were sold out, so we swapped for hushpuppies along with collard greens and baked beans. I'll be honest, when my sandwich came out I was a little nervous because the slaw is BRIGHT yellow. I was expecting a strong yellow mustard flavor (which I'm not a fan of), but it actually wasn't like that at all and worked really well. My husband's bologna sandwich had a super thick cut piece of bologna and was fried perfectly. Everything we had was delicious, but I seriously could not stop eating the pickles, they were that good! The staff was friendly and happy to answer all our questions. It did fill up pretty quickly while we were there, but they've got a big outdoor seating area with plenty of space too. Definitely worth a visit!

Everything was fine until the hostess propped the door open. They left the door wide open and everyone in the front seating area was miserable. I asked if they could please close it and I was told no. They said the hostess stands by the door on game days. So they really don't care if their customers are comfortable or not. That says a lot. They certainly could've made adjustments given the cold and windy day. But our waitress was kind enough to move us when a table opened up in the back. That was a big relief and much more comfortable. Now to their food. The bacon cheese fries were great but didn't have bacon so we had to get them to bring back to sprinkle on top. The ranch was excellent and we all liked the app. My youngest got a grilled cheese which he enjoyed. My oldest got a burger which he said was okay, but nothing special. But the real disappointment comes in with the hot dogs. My first dog was cold, like unappetizingly cold. The waitress was very nice and took care of it immediately. However, the second dog came out almost immediately. If you like a boiled hot dog that's reheated in a microwave, you'll like their hot dogs. But I want a quality grilled hot dog. We'll stick to our ol' faithful CH burger joint from here on out. And I hope next time your customers are extremely uncomfortable on a freezing day sitting right next to the open door, you exercise some courtesy and close the door next time.

The Firehouse Dog is a must -- bold, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with just the right kick. The cheesy jalapeño dog is everything it should be: melty, spicy, messy in the best way. And the taco dog? Somehow ridiculous and incredible at the same time. The fries are crispy, seasoned, and absolutely addictive, but let's talk about the real stars: the sauces. There are so many good ones that choosing becomes the hardest part of the visit. Drizzle, dip, smother -- you literally cannot go wrong. Even the buns deserve love -- soft, toasted just right, and strong enough to hold up to all that delicious chaos. Everything here is done right, from the flavors to the quality to the fun vibe. Sup Dogs is one of those places that makes you excited to come back before you've even finished eating. Five stars, no debate.

This was our first trip to North Carolina and we wanted to try North Carolina BBQ. So, we ordered…read moretakeout while visiting Durham. I'm leaving 2 stars in case this may have been an off night, and for this review not to be dismissed as one of those "I only left one star because I couldn't leave zero" posts that even I usually ignore. But with the amount of issues, this could easily be justified as a one-star review. When I arrived around 6:45-7:00 p.m. on a weeknight, the restaurant was completely empty. I didn't think much of it at the time, but afterward this seemed unusual for a barbecue restaurant in a state known for its BBQ. The first real issue was that one of our two-meat dinners was missing one of the meats. Next was that the brisket was extremely dry, even when soaked in barbecue sauce by them, and even more sauce added by me. The ribs had an acrid smoke flavor and a smell that resembled the odor more of cigarette smoke than even liquid smoke. I'm not accusing the cooks of smoking in the kitchen. In fact, research tells me, "An unpleasant, ashtray-like smell can come from dirty smoke (a poorly managed fire), excessive creosote, or meat that sat too long." With how empty the restaurant was, it could very well have been the latter. Sides: My son's fries were also missing. The sweet potato fries were significantly undercooked. The hush puppies' outer layer was a bit more solid than I'm used to, and several of us could not take more than one bite. However, this could have been due to personal taste. The potato salad and mac and cheese were just okay, but that could also be personal taste. We're the type of people that try to convince ourselves something is better than it actually is, which is why I sat on writing this until the day after. This is also why I'm not even going to attempt to ask for a refund. I don't see us ever going back to that area, nor that restaurant. I'm generally not a picky eater, but this was one of the few times where I could not take more than a few bites of anything. We were really looking forward to trying NC BBQ in NC, so this was a disappointing experience.
