Came in to my old high school favorite lunch spot but its not the same at all came im for a chilli dog with extra cheese and a dad’s dog no relish and both came with almost rock hard bread when I told the waitress I have a issue they looked at me like I was crazy for one so told them the bread is rock hard the looked at me again like I was crazy anyway they used to steam the buns they remade it with another rock hard bread and said this should be better ok so for a chilli cheese dog with extra cheese and a dad’s dog with a sprite was 22 bucks and I even tipped at the kiosk wish I didn’t this place has gone down the drain please I hope owner reads this and try to get there employees on track hard bread come on you a hotdogs place you gotta have soft fresh bread or steam it like back in the day

Visited for the first time today. Listen, the food is great and we’ll worth the visit, but the service is nothing short of magical. All of the employees vibe really well together. They keep it cute with the customers. It’s just an overall chill place to spend some time. This place did not meet my expectations, but far exceeded them. Also, the Hot Apple Pie with Ice Cream is a treasure.

No the friendliest staff. We midday so there shouldn’t have been an excuse for soggy soft hotdogs.My daughter ended up sick. First and last time visiting that establishment. If I would have fallen sick that would have been a problem for you.

Oh snap. I dropped in less than a hour before closing on a weekend, probably not the best time. I have been here several times before many years ago though. Good memories of a classic hot dog. But this time was different.

Dad’s Hot Dogs is a Stockton, CA, legend. They have been around since 1979. Classic 1980s hot dog counter joint complete with coin twist candy machines. But with modern feels. Not locked in time. Different owners now from the original. They use the same hot dog brand. If it ain’t broke.

There was one staff person and she was a one person crew. Cashiering, putting the orders together, and cleaning up. She was helpful with a calm, pleasant easy going demeanor. I ordered a kraut dog and hubs a dog with onions, relish, tomatoes, and mustard. The dogs were on the softer side, probably left in the steamer a bit too long. Because of that, they didn’t have a snap to it. But the snap is an iconic part of a quality hot dog eating experience. It is so satisfying to hear it and feel that bite. The buns tasted soft steamed as well. I also ordered the fresh squeezed lemonade. It was mild tasting and definitely tasted home made. The sauerkraut was in the perfect middle meaning not crunchy and not overly fermented to have a sour taste.

The seasonal fresh lemonade is an awesome down home touch. If you like it extra sweet, just add sugar yourself and adjust. I like it the way it was. Hubs brought on the sugar. $5 for 32 oz. They have 7 flavors beyond the original.

I am bumping my rating by a star to four; they just need to work on the hot dog rotation to make sure they do not sell any mushy dogs through closing time.

*DONT WASTE UR MONEY HERE ON MEDIOCRE HOTDOG*

Ordered a chicago hotdog and a chilli cheese dog.

Went here thinking im getting a great home made hot dog, with home made buns, with home made relishes etc.

Nope. Want a salty hotdog the size of ur thumb? Heres the place.

Want a nice soft fluffy hotdog heated hotdog bun? Nope, thin soggy steamer heated bun.

Want to pay $30+ for two soggy bun salty hotdogs with packaged shredded cheese? Youve come to the right place.

Go to costco, for a $1.50 you get large hotdog on nice fluffy warm buns and a drink.

Wish i went to 7/11 instead.

Came in right at closing time. Would have been perfectly understandable if they denied me. Instead the staff was very polite and gave me excellent service. Food was top notch too

Delicious! Fun options. If you want veggie, just ask they have it, and cook to order.

Friendly service!

I appreciate a good hot dog, what I appreciate even more than that is wonderful customer service. I felt like I wanted to go in the back and hang with them all day! What a great location. If you haven’t stopped by and tried at least once I highly recommend! Great Dogs!! There is something on the menu for everyone!! Thank you! Personally recommend a chilli cheese or the Cajun hot link!! You will be satisfied!! Keep them dogs coming!!
