Service is typical counter service diner service, just friendlier and helpful (if you're nice). Just don't call them hot dogs...they're WIENERS! Definitely old school feel to the place as well. If you're visiting, it's worth a stop for lunch or dinner. One final note...COFFEE MILK! Do you like Starbucks Frappuccino's, chocolate milk, etc.? GET A COFFEE MILK!!! Olneyville did it first.

Arrived shortly…read moreafter 11, was told they were serving breakfast but would be happy to start the burgers a little early. This place is awesome! Menu is small but the burgers are delicious. Added salt potatoes instead of fries and they were a new favorite. The whole meal was fantastic! I know your reading my review and saying to yourself a burger is a burger, how good can it be? If you don't go, you will never understand!! A few things- this is in a neighborhood. Parking is very tight. Grab whatever you can close by. Also not much seating, it is a small place. We arrived a little after 11 by 11:30 on a Saturday there was a line and seats were tough to find! Yes, there are challenges but don't miss this place!!

The regular steak fries were delicious love their homemade seasoning. The CNY potatoes just weren't it for us, there was a group of 4 and no one really cared for them, but if pepperoncini flavor is your thing go for it. The chicken sandwich was okay didn't have much flavor too it sadly. Atmosphere of track 15 is great and the girl at the counter was kind and friendly to us as well.

Since the last time I visited Kong Dog, the menu now offers spicy tteokbokki, rose tteokbokki,…read moreramen, and coming soon popcorn chicken. I used the self-order kiosk to order the combo of 1 tteokbokki, 2 Kong Dogs, and 1 lemonade for $22.99 with optional additions. I chose the rose tteokbokki with a boiled egg, rainbow kong dog with mozzarella cheese, ramen kong dog with half beef and half mozzarella, and the mango lemonade for $25.99 prior to tax. The rose tteokbokki was good. The sauce was creamy, mildy spicy, flavorful, and the rice cakes were chewy and good texture. There were some fish cakes and chopped herbs. The rainbow kong dog and ramen kong dog are always great. The outside layer is thick and crunchy. The mango lemonade was tangy and sweet (maybe a bit too sweet) at the same time. It took about 15 minutes for the order to be ready. Staff were friendly.

I was surprised to see this Korean hotdog place in the mall and I was very eager to try it since…read moreyou can't find anything like this in RI. They had a great selection, the first thing you do is decide on the inside being cheese, half cheese half hotdog, turkey dog etc, Next you choose the exterior such as potato covered, spaghetti Kong dog, Ramen, hot Cheetos (my choice with gooey mozzarella) and many others including Churro style if you desire a sweet choice. I really liked mine as did my son. We also tried their fried dumplings and fries, also very tasty with your choice of chicken or pork filling. The staff was great and everything is made to order so plan on waiting about 10 minutes. I'll definitely go back!

We didn't come to Baba's out of curiosity. We came out of respect. Word was they'd been having a…read morehard time lately. Quieter nights. Regular customers not being able to come through as often. That doesn't sit right when it's a place like this. So we brought a few friends and made the trip to Smith Hill. One of them had never had a hot wiener in their life, which feels almost criminal around here. But also kind of perfect. Two all the way, fries, and a drink. There's no reason to complicate it. It is an aptly named "special." The wieners have just enough snap when you bite, but they give in easily as you chew. Great texture. Full flavor. The meat sauce is exactly what it's supposed to be. Savory. Seasoned. Unmistakably a Rhode Island original. Mustard across the top, just enough to cut through. Onions finely chopped and stacked high. Celery salt finishes it off. All of it in a soft, steamed bun that holds its own with flavor and experience. The fries were perfect. Exactly what you hope for at a place like this. Crisp. Golden. Salted perfectly. I didn't touch the shaker. Didn't need to. They get it exactly right on the first try. And yes, they've got coffee milk... on tap. That's not a bonus. That's an expectation when you're running the OG New York System spot. If you don't have coffee milk with your wieners are you really having the true experience? The guys working the counter were young, friendly, and patient. They smile. They explain things. They broke down what "all the way" meant. Just demonstrating pride in what they serve and appreciative of the patronage. And just as we were finishing up, one of the owners came out. She'd heard we had a first timer at the table and wanted to know what they thought. It wasn't a show. She really wanted to make sure the food hit right. She talked to every member of our party and took a genuine interest in who we were and how we got there. Inside, the place is spotless. Coral counters and black walls with chrome stools. A color scheme that somehow works. Digital menus overhead. Even though it's so fresh and clean, you do realize at all times that you're eating at a piece of Rhode Island's history, even though it's also quite modern now. And if we don't show up for places like this, they disappear. You'll wake up one day and the Old Canteen is gone and in its place, you've got Wally's Wieners. Neon signs. Cartoon branding. Hot dogs with dumb names. TikTok decor. Eight dollar ketchup. Branding dressed up like culture. If we let the originals die, we're complicit in the knockoff version that takes its place. So don't just talk about supporting local. Do it. Go to Baba's. Order the special. Sit down. Eat slow. And remember what real tastes like.

Once you go inside, you will see the main bar and some seating in the back. But there's even more space! We sat upstairs where there were more tables and a tv. We will definitely be there more often!

When a simple spot has been featured this much, it is a true institution of its own. Crazy part is…read morethat not only is it on wheels as a food truck, it's a MUCH bigger than the usual food truck you're accustomed to. Having been around this long and operating at crazy hours that obviously cater to late night crawlers and drunken fools, you must have built some solid grit to be a dedicated feeding hole around a university/college town. The staff greeted me fondly as I walked through the door. If you've never seen this on TV or online before, you wouldn't have imagined a diner within a truck designed that way. You wouldn't have been able to tell the difference from them vs a small restaurant in a city. TV, lights, posters and everything anything restaurant that you expect was there...except for the chairs this particular night. I'm guessing they removed it to better handle crowds coming through...after all, too many people dining there, lining up, and trying to order food is a classic fire hazard 101 within such a small space. I am glad to have a chance to visit this time around. I've been wanting to try it for the longest time since seeing it on Man vs Food. However, I don't know why but I just wasn't craving a burger in the moment. Maybe if I did order the burger, this would have ended up as a 5-star review based on how most people rave about it. But for now, I'll glad to still say that I'm a true fan. The Haven Dog with celery salt was simple and a quick fixer-upper for anyone slightly hungry in the moment. The steak and cheese sandwich, however, is a loaded mother-f-fer with a LOT of sliced beef atop a TINY bun with some shrooms and peppers. All I could think about as I unwrapped it was someone trying a skinny jeans three sizes down, lol. Check them out!

I recently had my first experience with Polo Loco (I know, I'm a little late to the game). They were at the Jaws Movies on the Block screening last night, and I couldn't resist trying a couple tacos even though I'd TECHNICALLY already eaten dinner ;-) I tried the PBJ (pork, black beans, jalapenos, cheese, sweet chili sauce) and the Napalm (chicken, jalapenos, Napalm sauce, cheese, Southwest sour cream). Both tacos are a play on a well-known combo, and both are successful for an Americanized taco experience. First off, you have a choice of soft or hard tacos. I went with soft, and got these babies served on smallish flour tortillas. An authentic taco is served typically on corn, but flour is also quite tasty in this case. The PBJ is pulled pork sandwich meets taco. It has a slight sweetness from the sauce and the pork, with a bit of spice from the jalapenos. It's quite tasty, but also a bit drippy, so be careful :) The Napalm reminds me of Buffalo chicken. It's chicken and a spicy "Napalm" sauce which is pretty much a version of Buffalo sauce. The cheese and Southwest sour cream combine to remind me of blue cheese dressing without the actual blue cheese. That creaminess along with the Napalm sauce is definitely reminiscent of Buffalo chicken, and yields a very tasty taco. I see lots of love here for the Grande Tacos, and perhaps next time I'll try one of those. I also know the Green Monstah tacos are popular, and maybe when I'm hungrier I'll grab one of those too. I'd happily visit Poco Loco on future occasions. Although their tacos are not traditional Mexican in style, they are very tasty and satisfying. They're also very cheap at $2 a pop! Two thumbs up for sure!
