Established July 7, 1960 -- same location, same World Famous Footlongs, still slinging them out of a kitchen that's clearly been doing this a long, long time. There's even a framed cease-and-desist letter from Subway's lawyers on the wall over the word "Footlong" -- they told 'em no. Fifteen years later, still hanging there, still called a Footlong. We had the Short Reuben Dog and the Long Chicago Dog, plus a side of fried corn and onion rings. April took great care of us -- sweet, and clearly not slowing down with baby #2 on the way. The Chicago Dog alone is worth the trip -- easily twice the size, cheaper, and better than a certain loud-on-social-media hot dog guy's version. Yes, that's a dig, and yes, it's deserved. Fried corn was a fun surprise, onion rings were solid, and honestly -- what's not to love here? One gripe: there's a credit card upcharge that isn't clearly disclosed up front. Worth knowing before you order. Otherwise, this is a bucket-list stop. Wish we lived closer. We'll be back -- someday, somehow.

It's been a while since I visited and last review, so I decided to enjoy a hotdog after a ride on…read moremy friend's horse. I ordered outside and decided to do a footlong Nathan Chicago dog. It was about 7.50 after paying in cash. I waited for a couple minutes, and it my name was called to pick up my order. I ate outside in a small bench. The hotdog was loaded with the toppings like relish, pickles, and peppers. I added mustard and ketchup too. The hotdog was plump, and the toppings were alright. It isn't as good as Portillos, but still decent for the price. It was filling for lunch too. The atmosphere is the same, but the party room in the back is now available in you have an extra air conditioned space to eat. It wasn't that crowded outside, but there were quite a few inside. I guess more people wanted the cooler area as it was a bit hot and humid outside. Parking can sometimes be hard to get in the front, so there is a back area too. There is a small stage for concerts now, but I haven't seen any yet. The mechanical horse still works, but the dino one was out of order, and the dolphin one looks to be gone. Staff is pretty quick and friendly. I am glad I ate here again on Sunday as the food was good and filling. No complaints for 7.50 on a footlong Nathan Chicago dog. Will continue to visit occasionally when I am in Brooksville. Overall: B

As a first time customer, he treats you like you've been coming in for years. I ordered a Chicago Dog and a Polish Sausage, both served on perfectly steamed poppy seed buns with Vienna Beef franks and sausages loaded with super fresh toppings. I also had to try the Italian Beef, served on a fresh French roll piled with tender, juicy beef and hot giardiniera. I spent six years working in Chicago, and Paulie is turning out Chicago classics that rival some of the best I had there. He's ranked #6 on Yelp's Top 100 Sandwich Shops for a reason. Stop by, grab some incredible food, and take a few minutes to chat with Paulie. You'll be glad you did.

I've only been to Chicago once, so I am certainly no expert on their local cuisine, but this food…read moretruck situated in a gas station parking lot made the Yelp list of top sandwich spots in the country, so I knew I had to stop by. The first time I came was right after that article, and there were about 50 people in line, so I left. This Saturday I stopped by at around noon, and I was third in line. WARNING: do not be in a rush! Your food is not coming out quickly. Paulie is a sweetheart, but he is a one-man show, and he likes to chat and get to know all his customers. They currently do not carry the full menu they show online, so I went with a Chicago hot dog, and the Italian beef sandwich. Paulie educated me a bit on the sandwich; if I wanted it juicy (with the sauce already on it) or on the side to dip into (yes, please, I'm a dipper), and how spicy I wanted it (more peppers, less peppers). After a nice chat with Paulie about politics, I headed home and dug in. The Chicago hot dog was perfect, although I had to remove the hot peppers. The sandwich was outstanding; the beef so tender, the peppers and onions adding depth, and the roll was so soft-I could only eat half, but the other half heated up nicely for dinner. Can't wait to go back!

It's part seafood market, part food truck, with covered patio seating, picnic tables, and a small tiki bar for members of the Best Catch Club.

At $13, it's also a great value. I also picked up stone crabs and the red snapper fish spread from the market -- both were excellent. If you're looking for a low-key, authentic spot with great seafood and good prices, this is it.
