I love this place. Is it healthy? No. Is it good for you? No. Are the offerings made from high grade ingredients? Probably not. But the food is solid, consistent, tasty and brings me back to my childhood. For that, I give it two thumbs up! read more

"A faith is dead when no one can think of a heresy." -James Richardson "He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man." -Samuel Johnson I drove to this wiener shack or Wienerschnitzel or hot dog box or whatever with one goal in mind: I yearned to make myself forget the bitter disappointment of being waitlisted or excluded from so many Yelp Elite events. I've rarely felt so faux important and so legitimately ordinary & unsung. An elite benchwarmer is closer to the truth. Told to sit out again & again by the Yelp algorithmic powers that be. Lorea? Waitlisted. Orange Hill? Waitlisted. Spaghettini? Waitlisted. Being an Elite All-Star helps a little, but is not being Elite already enough status? A definition: "often : superior in quality, rank, skill, etc. an elite performer, an elite athlete, an athlete with elite skills." I have been left out as an Elite All Star too. Perhaps I am the best of the benchwarmers. Could be I am not conventionally attractive enough, so other Yelpers do not want to like my reviews for halo effect type reasons. Could be I do not craaaaank out dozens of fluffy, clipped reviews for the sake of maintaining a perception. Could be my reviews just aint got that swing, baby. Who knows. Anyway, sometimes to cope with the rejection all face from to time, one must invent a new form of pain to distract from the brutal reality that awaits all of us. My choice form of suffering is The Twinkie flavored milkshake served at Wienerschnitzel. Unlike some events & occasions, & places meant only for the creme de la creame, Wienerschnitzel will always welcome me with open buns. I've never been told I cannot go or don't belong at a Wienerschnitzel. I chose the drive thru this time because I could not bear to seen by the staff. I feared they might sense I am one of the lesser Yelp Elites by sourpuss disposition. The drive thru lady was pretty chill on the intercom, & she took my milkshake order. The ambiance of the drive thru is Miami Vice sexy except that it does not look like a cool TV show scene or feel sexy. The staff took no time to make the dietarily heinous beverage. Shake in hand. I sipped to forget the agony of defeat. I closed my eyes, and I let the cold liquid chunks of Twinkie take the wheel. All those narcotic levels of sugar tainting my veins & arteries. A trash parade rolling through my circulatory roadways. I finished the shake in less than a mile of driving. Sometimes the only way to forget a terrible moment in the past is drive one's self through an even more frightening moment in the future. Thank you Wienerschnitzel for letting me roll by. Please don't let the posh & popular diners make you feel bad about yourself. No one serves addicting shake liquids quite like you, Der DoggySchnitzels. read more

I come here once in a while. Yesterday I came because I saw an ad for a pastrami burger. I got one and it's soooo good! Next time I'm getting the sandwich. The food is consistently good and a shout out to the manager and workers. They are always friendly and helpful. It makes me want to come back. Keep up the great attitude! read more

We visit this location occasionally, and it's always a great experience. Especially for the seasonal desserts! Everything is consistently good, but what really keeps us coming back is the service. Aldo is our regular server, and he's absolutely amazing. He's always so happy, full of energy, and genuinely welcoming every time we see him. He makes the experience feel extra special and memorable. It's always a great experience when Aldo is there. Highly recommend his outstanding service! read more

Will definitely be returning to this location. Anthony, our server, treated me with utmost reverence and saluted me when I asked for my military discount. It reminded me of when I was in saving private ryan and saved people. If only every establishment could treat us veterans with such respect. He deserves a promotion. He was about to get off his shift when we ordered and was like, catch me if you can! read more

The chili dog is like a Po-Man dinner complete with soon to arrive explosive diarrhea.... May I suggest keeping an extra roll of tp in the car just in case? They aren't bad if you can stomach them so kudos to anyone out there who can eat these and continue on they day! read more

So the other day I was telling my son about how I used to really enjoy the classic chili dogs from Wienerschnitzel. He seemed kinda surprised since he knows we never go to Wienerschnitzel and he wondered why I had never gotten him a chili dog to try - which was a very good point! The thing with the chili dogs is that they pretty much have to be eaten in the car - right after they have been purchased - when the chili is hot and the bun is still soft from being steamed or warmed in the microwave (or however they warm them up). Once they get cold, it's game over. They are not the same. Also, I had a bad experience with their fries, which I never got over. I felt like the fries tasted like corn dogs, so I never ordered their fries again, just figuring that the fries were fried in the same oil as the corn dogs. But in all fairness, I ordered a small fry to give them another try, and they did not taste like corn dogs. *So one extra star for having french fries that actually taste like fries! So here's more on our chili dog experience. It turned out that we went on Saturday, which the daily special was a beef chili dog - we figured we'd try that since we like beef hot dogs. Well it wasn't the same at all. Very disappointing - actually the hot dog didn't really taste like much. I told my hubby that they might have been sitting in the water too long and lost their flavor. I think I'm going to give it a try one more time but this time with just the regular OG hot dog that the chili dog normally comes with. More to follow this one .... read more

Loved the dogs years ago. Recently visited local Wienerschnitzel and bun had shrunk and dog didn't taste good at all. The fries were good.

I ordered offer #539, she scanned the coupon on my phone, asked for the fries to be upsized to large fries. Then asked for a large coke. All I received was the large fries and coke. I asked if she can correct it, she refused told me to order correctly next time. read more

If you like shrimp... And you have not tried the Wienerschnitzel Shrimp Po Boy... Then you don't know what you're missing. The remoulade sauce totally makes this thing spectacular. Had the Chili Cheese Mac 'N Cheese... It was small for what the price is. The flavor was ok... The chili is the best part. It might be better if the Mac 'N Cheese was cheesier. The meatball sandwich is great. It utilizes the soft richness of the hotdog bun. Simplicity at its finest. The service is somewhat average. Good times sitting next to Chapman watching the traffic. People watching and food. read more

Promotion banner on side of building "7 chili dogs for $7.99, after waiting in drive thru line; was told promotion is over. Suggest taking down banner, instead of using bait & switch tactic. With all the sodium nitrite, they did me a favor. Won't be coming back to this location. read more

Not sure how the rating is so high. Waited for a very long time in the drive thru at the speaker just to order my food. No hey can you wait nothing. What for Mediocre food. The chilli cheese dogs tastes off and the soda is watered down? Extremely slow service and the staff was not even friendly. read more

I come to this wienerschnitzel often as I work close by. Today I picked up two regular hot dogs with ketchup and fries. I opened up my package and realized that there were black dots on their bun. Unfortunately I ate the first hot dog while driving and didn't notice it until the very end. I'm so disappointed :( I generally love coming here as it's quick and everyone is friendly but this is not okay. read more

Unsafe COVID Mask Wearing by cashier! Visited the drive-thru Tuesday, Nov 17, about 6:35pm. Was extremely disappointed with the cashier helping me for my order. The younger guy, keep pulling down his mask (all the way off his nose and mouth, turning it into a chin strap), as he pulled together my order and I believe talking with the cook working at the time. When grabbing my food and napkins for my order, his mask was off his face. As he came back to the window, he pulled the mask back up on his face, and opened the drive-thru window, thinking it was ok. It was not ok. My order, my food, and my napkins were exposed. Everything was exposed. The purpose of the mask is to protect their customers' food and items from any exposure. During my short visit, his mask was on and off multiple times as I sat waiting for my food, watching all of this. I'm also wondering if the cook even has a mask on, based on the mask behavior of the cashier. Also, there was no gloves used to protect customer's orders. Also, when asked for a receipt for my order, the cashier would not provide me with one. I did not eat my order because of the lack of mask wearing. I quickly threw it away. During COVID, this is not ok and I will not be visiting the restaurant any more. The cashier should be reprimanded and re-trained on proper mask wearing and proper health and safe precautions. The management should take this issue very seriously. If anyone else has experienced this, they should report the person(s) involved and the company and its management. It is putting everyone health as risk! A very concerned customer! read more

I love wienerschnitzel I urge anyone to try their watermelon lemonade and the pastrami beef hot dog. No words can illustrate how much I love this fast food joint. I've had it 3 days in a row and I'm still not tired of it. The corn dogs are always up to standard, their outsides crunchy and the insides are piping hot and has the snap that good wieners have. Beautiful. Chef's kiss. read more

I've been here a few time for UberEats and Freddy is just phenomenal. Manages his crew very well:) read more

I pick up orders for GrubHub here, and the staff has always been on the ball and friendly. I have ordered food here as well, and the quality was on par with Wienerschnitzel standards. The reason I am taking the time to review today is because of an interaction I had Friday night with an employee named "Freddy" (sorry if I misspelled it dude) This gentleman truly cares about what he's doing! He had a rather difficult order were the customer had special requests on literally every individual item, and he took the time and made sure everything was perfect before he sent it through the window into my hands. Just wanted to make note to whomever runs that particular franchise, you've got a genuine superstar working for you! This is meant with no disrespect to the restaurant: Freddie you are meant for bigger and better things buddy! Thank you! read more

DISAPPOINTED. For the past couple weeks I been craving for chili-cheese-fries. So I finally go out and get on and where do I go? Weinerschnitzel. Sitting in the work van, going though the drive though, getting all excited and damn near drooling all over the steering wheel. Imagining a huge mound of fries with piping hot chili and melted cheese... I drive through, pay, take my lunch back to work and to my desk and tear open the bag and open the box and what do I see? Not what I was imagining... Of course, I eat it. My momma taught me not to waste food. Talk about a crave-killer. A friend recently told me about a place called "The Hat"...you ever heard of it? :P read more

I love righting reviews for great customer service and Michael let me do that tonight! Such a pleasant person and seemed genuinely happy to serve us. Unfortunately this is something that is not normally seen in fast food environments so I figured Michael should get the recognition! Also I have been here a few times and the quality is consistent and good. My father is here from out of town, originally from Fontana and worked at a Wienerschnitzel in high school and his exact words tonight were "wow I think this is the best Wienerschnitzel chili dog I have ever gotten!" So thank you for having great service and food quality where it usually isn't expected! read more

Great customer Service Anahi A!!! She was Hilarious and awesome to chat with. Just went in for a Recess Shake and it was an awesome experience and not your typical get in get out type of service. Thanks Again Anahi read more

I just drove thru to get some lunch. Ordered the Bratwurst specifically with NO MUSTARD. She asked me if I wanted grilled onions. I said yes, but NO MUSTARD. Got home and opened up my Brat and guess what --- ONLY MUSTARD, not even any onions. I so hate mustard. Just had to toss it. Thanks for nothing. read more

I love their pretzel chili cheese dog and new drinks. They have an outside patio only which I don't mind.

Shout out during these times. Eating at different restaurants more often. This fast food was pretty darn good. Chili burger, fries and strawberry shake. Fast service drive thru and the gal that took my order was good and pleasant voice. I recommend read more

Not all fast food is the same! Just like not all Wienerschnitzel locations are the same! The location on Tustin Ave. is thee WORST! But today my eyes were opened up to this quaint Wienerschnitzel! It's mostly good for drive thru which is perfect for me since my mom is in a lovely boot that requires minimal moving -_- the cashier at the drive was so nice and humble! I've never met such a nice fast food employee! They usually just shove the bag at you and call it a day! No matter where I go, both me and mom always make an effort to ask how someone is doing, and he seemed genuinely taken back as if no one had ever asked him that! Not to mention our food was SUPER fresh!! This will be my only Wienerschnitzel spot from now on! read more

I love this place! They always serve the best fast food in town. Every time I visit they have new specials and daily ice cream deals. This month I loved their Bratwurst. They told me Mini Corn Dogs will be back in November. Try their Bratwurst, Street Dog, or any of the Chili Cheese Fries. All are amazing! Highly recommended. OH AND THEY DELIVER WITH DOOR DASH! read more

In the drive-thru for some Sundays on this hot Friday. Pretty clean are service is prompt, guy at the window gave me all the extras I wanted and didn't try to charge me like other fast food joints. Over all fast and friendly, What more can you ask for in drive-thru. 2 thumbs up! read more

NOT FAST FOOD! Service is awful here every time I've been. The staff flat-out ignore you until they're ready and I don't get how they can be so slow at serving mostly pre-prepared food. I usually walk to the window, this time however I went to the drive-through. I'll explain why. I like this location because I like the little outdoor seating area, especially in the evening. So I usually park and go to the window. The problem is with the staff ignoring you! The window is real low with an opaque panel above, so you can't actually see in without crouching. Every damn time I go there, I wait at the window for ages before anyone even acknowledges my presence. I crouch low and wave at staff passing but inevitably I'm ignored until I actually start yelling hello. Every damn time! Started timing it (yes I'm anal like that) and it usually takes 5 minutes. For a fast food place? Come on! So my last time at the window I was sufficiently pissed off that I vowed to take the drive through. Drove up, sat at the speaker and .... nothing. Seriously? I've been to drive-through's before where someone says hi and asks you to wait for a minute. No problem! Glad that you know I'm here! Three minutes later after a tentative "Hello?" or two, I tried a toot on the horn. Nothing. There's now 3 other cars behind me. So a minute later I drive up to the window. After yet another minute of waiting a girl shows up and apologizes. "Is the box working?" I ask? "No.... sorry about that, can I take your order?" So she takes my order, closes the window and promptly takes the order of the next car at the speaker box. Even if she was busy, she's wearing a headset! Just say hi, I'll be with you in a minute! Not impressed, not going back to that particular branch again. read more

Ordered 25 dollars worth of food for myself and pregnant wife today. Drove all the home and sat down to eat only to be missing my wife's lunch her two corn dogs. So I called the store to see what happened. The gentlemen working their said the girl bagging the orders was 100 percent positive she had put the corn dogs in the bag. Well their not. This is what happens when people don't speak good english. Their is a language barrier between the customers and the Mexican workers. Not one white person working their all Mexicans. If I was their same race they would treated me right instead of white their opposing color. Very rude bad service broken English and dishonest Mexicans working here stay away read more

Slowest fast food ever. Way to long to wait for pre made hotdogs.

Not impressed compared to most Der Wienerschnitzel's. The service was lacking and the chili was not up to par. I am thinking I just caught them on a bad night. But you never get a second chance to make a first impression! read more
