Wow, a hot dog has been a staple that I have grown up with ever since I was a kid and so I have literally seen a hot dog at its worst. With just ketchup and a bun, and I've learned through the years to just live with that. I got a hankering today for a hotdog but I didn't feel like making a hotdog at home so I started looking online to see if there was anywhere in the area that had a good hotdog and I came across this place. I read the reviews, but the final decision really comes from my curiosity to find out for myself. I had a hard time finding the place due to it being in sort of a strip mall type area. But when I found it, it was kind of small but I don't judge by the size of a place, so I continued to go in. I was immediately greeted by the smile of a man working behind the counter, who made me feel very welcome. The menu is listed on a chalkboard as soon as you enter, and you get a full view of what they offer. Although the menu is limited the choices, are pleasing to the eye. I didn't have to wait long for my food, and it was delivered to me with a smile and an invitation to return. I ordered the Chicago dog meal. Hoodoggie!!!!! This hotdog was off the chain. Bursting with flavor, condiments on the hotdog were supremely plentiful. Every bite was worth the price and the tots that came along with. It had a pop of flavor that was absolutely phenomenal. I will definitely be back when I'm in the mood for a delicious hotdog. They have taken hot dog to a level that I've never had before. Some people have traveled to Chicago to have an authentic Chicago dog. Some people have traveled to other places who specialize in hot dogs, but I'm from the Midwest we really don't have anything special about hotdogs here, so when I run into a place that can make a hotdog compete with chicken, pizza, and the big burger...then you know they know what they are doin hunni!!!

Chili dog was good, just messy. Fell apart trying to eat it. Service was a bit lackluster.

What a find !! Very clean, great menu, top notch service and fabulous food. The meat was so good, we visited the butcher shop they own next door before we left the area. The tater tots and fries were done to perfection. Ice cold pop in a bottle. Very knowledgeable and proficient chef - we just can't say enough good and I will be back until I try everything on the menu. LOLKid-friendliness: Great kid menuParking: Park right in front -

I had been here before a few years ago and it was a failure. I gave them another try and was pleased with the improvements

Absolutely loved this place. I'm a sucker for a good hot dog and this one did not disappoint. Buddy loved his too. I preferred the tots to the fries. The fries weren't bad but I'm not as big with the fat fries. Tots were perfect.

I’ve been craving a hotdog and they are made by their own butcher Lee. This was my first visit. Alec was friendly and shared with me some great blues. The restaurant was spotless and had a modern vibe. My next visit will be a freshly ground hamburger and then the next treat will be posole! I had no idea this place was here. The butcher is next door with fresh meat. Thank you Alec!

It was a very small old school cafe place and I loved it! Small tables, glass pops, friendly staff and a big menu made with fresh, real meat, cooked to order. I ordered the Philly cheesesteak and was impressed with every bite. Will be back soon to try their chili dog or cheeseburger. I recommended every time to Leeway’s once, and check out their butcher shop a couple stores down.

They forgot to put my son's order in our takeout, so I gave them a ring when we got home and they apologized and refunded me for the missing portion. I was glad they handled it so nicely so no hard feelings at all....and how could I be mad when everything we did get was delicious? Will definitely back soon.

Always tasty. My favorite is the chili dog, but everything is good, especially the choppy tots. Highly recommended.
