I really enjoyed the food and the price are really nice. I just stopped by and noticed the store was closed. I got so worried if the store is closing permanently.. I hope it just closed early for today.

Very tasty and interesting combinations!

It says they have halal hotdog options but they do not observe halal when it comes to cross contamination. They use the same batter for both halal and non halal hotdogs including cheese, and same oil, hence cross contamination occurs which makes it non-halal and at the end of the day defeats the purpose of providing halal hotdogs. Brought it up to management but it does not seem to phase them. Told them for it to be considered halal, not only do the hotdogs have to be halal, but the batter and oil for frying must be separate. Hopefully they can consider this or only provide halal hotdogs (after cleaning fryer appropriately ofc)We

Grateful it was open late because I prefer a savoury snack after dinner, and good sized dog too

ordered a poutine style corn dog which looked nothing as advertised. when i finally got threw the brick of cheese at the start the hot dog was cold and tasted almost sour. staff didn’t seem concerned with how long it took to make (45mins) even when it wasn’t busy. at one point during my attempt to order the woman at the cash register just walked away with no explanation and was missing for a solid 5 mins. the two business set up is both confusing and cluttered and makes it so you must order your drink from one till then food from another. all in all a very disappointing experience.

First time trying Korean hotdogs specialty. I didn’t know what to try as the menu option looks tasty so I asked for the most popular item and the lady recommended the hotdogs potato. It is basically a large hotdog covered with french fries to give you the idea of what it is.I am not a picky eater, but I do like flavor. The hotdog potato had ZERO flavor whatsoever. The only flavor I tasted while eating it was the barbecue sauce I chose. Even McDonald’s fries with no ketchup as a good flavor!!!I do like the crunchiness of the potato. The hotdog itself is a large size. And price point is good.I was disappointed with the sogginess in the middle, where the potato and hotdog meet. I am not sure if it needed to be cooked a little bit more or that’s the way it is but it was soggy in the middle and not pleasant to eat.The location itself is very small, and very very very hot. I had to stand by the door as I was starting to sweat just standing there.Service was very friendly and I appreciate the recommendation given.Overall, I don’t think I will return, even though their menu does look tempting . I was turned off by the no flavor and the soggy potato in the middle.

Drinks were inconsistent, wait times were insane- 50 mins for four corn dogs. Mozzarella dog had cold cheese. Servers kept touching their hair and faces (nose) and were focused on dancing instead of doing their job. Overall not a great experience.

Never had these hotdogs and our kids wanted to try them. The cheese filled dog was awesome sooooo stringy the sauces were pretty good too. I enjoyed the pork filled dog over the beef filled they are so juicy. new place and a young staff, Any kids starting in the the work force this is a good job for them it’ll take a bit of time before the place rocks but what I’ve seen is a very good job from the cashiers and to the cooks in the back making them huge hotdogs. We will definitely go back.

It is their second day of operation, and still lots of issues to be resolved. 1 original corndog and frenchfrise order had us waiting 40 minutes. They were busy, but not that busy. And people who ordered after us were served before us. I assume frenchfrise delayed our order. So service 1 star. Food: the corndog was good, but frenchfrise horrible!!! We have ordered cheese fies( they don't have plain available) it looked bad, were sweet, and overall tasted terrible. So not very good first impression or experience.

I would recommend this place for casual delicious eats! We ordered hot dogs for delivery and they travelled well. The portions are big - we ordered 4 for two people, and we could only each one. The only thing that would have been better is if they put more sauce on top, but I think if you eat in store you could ask for more.

*Arirang Hot Dog*Nice spot to pick up Korean hot dogs. However their spicy mayo was not great as it had an after taste.Quite quick but would be better if they could call or text once the order is ready for pick up.

I finally got the chance to try Arirang after they've been around for some time! They're located quite close to their competition but they are different! I personally found their dog to be bigger and crispier! They also have 30% off pick up special at this location!We got the mozzarella and sausage corn dog with mayo, honey butter powder! It was so fresh and delicious! This was a pretty big snack for me! The price came up to be under $5 with the 30% walk in discount! Definitely a great deal!
