Love this place. My grandma used to take me there when I was a kid. I’ve moved farther away now but I still go back every chance I get. I drive no matter how long it takes to get them. Little hot dogs and rice pudding when I talk about parking it can be very challenging to find parking. I went down to Albany and stopped by Troy to get the hot dogs on a Friday and I wasn’t able to find parking went back a week later. I finally found parking on Saturday. Got my hot dogs

Update – 7/24/25: Went back with my family today, and it’s not often I can say that expectations were exceeded the second time around. The guy taking orders memorizes everything and relays it to the kitchen flawlessly. Everyone there—staff and patrons alike—is genuinely friendly. We had three kids with us (not exactly the quietest crew), and no one batted an eye. It’s truly a family joint, and I’m grateful to experience a slice of the Troy my grandmother was born and raised in.
The food is amazing—especially the dogs and fries. The hot dogs are just right, and the French fries are hand-cut, served piping hot, and perfectly crisp. To top it all off, everything is affordable, which makes it even easier to come back again and again.
Original review: Really really enjoyed this place excellent food and service! Adding it as one of our staple stops when we’re in the area.

The food is subpar. It would definitely be a lot better if they would season their food even a little bit. Fries are very bland and soft theres hardly ever a crunch to them. Their sausage and peppers are decent but still could use seasoning, their meat sauce is not for me just not a fan of the taste. I will say their pancakes and French toast are good though. Home fries are bland though. I’m not knocking the place just trying to figure out why it’s so popular

The food is average but the price is fantastic. I tried the mini hotdogs with the works. They were more like a chili dog than upstate NY meat sauce hot dog. The burger and fries were good. The rice pudding was homemade so, better than the store bought but not quite as good as Grandma’s recipe. It’s nice to see a little mom and pop place like this is still open. You can fill up without shelling out a lot of money.

Very cool to experience an old school hot dog shop. Hotdogs are pretty small, but not bad for the price to sit down at the diner style eatery while learning about its history. overall, a great experience and good bang for your buck! I recommend stopping by at least once to check it out.

The best mini hot dogs in the area, The zippy sauce does it all. They do have other lunch items but the minis is what I go here for, me personally I think it’s better than the other Hot Dog place in the other side of the River. It can get a little crowded if you’re looking to dine in but the little shelf outside is the best spot

Best little hot dog place around. Been going every chance I get for 40+ yrs. It was a tradition that started with my parents that I carried on with my kids. I love that the place has never changed in all those years and brings back memories. Standing outside watching the hotdogs turn. Always bring 2 dzn dogs and extra sauce home.

Real local place with vintage vibe at the counter. Felt like a luncheonette, from when I was a kid!! BIG PLUS in my book!! Not to mention clean. My daughter and I stopped in for lunch after picking her up at Russell Sage College, the staff made us feel like we were regulars rather than new customers. My daughter said she found her goto for mini-dogs and homemade French fries!! We suggest getting them “all the way” that’s mustard, onion, and their homemade meat sauce.
