The best food in Rochester, a hallmark of my home city. The fries are a must, the bread is unreal, garbage plate is a signature, all of the hot dogs are 10/10, decor is fire, top it off w/ cream soda!
Great for meat lovers & veg*ns alike! Veggie dogs can be subbed for any dog & vegetarian toppings are marked on menu. Special vegan burger served every Thursday. ONLY legit vegan "plate" in the Roc!
James WalkerJune 5, 2015It's a little pricy for a hole-in-the-wall and the drunken 20-somethings and affected hipster's can wear on your nerves in such TIGHT QUARTERS if you're in the wrong mindset. But, it's good 😛!
Valerie PerdueJanuary 10, 2016Unusual fun place with regular, beef and veggie hot dogs with more fixings than you can imagine. PALEO option of 2 dogs on coleslaw and sweet potato fries was delicious!- Ryan ConradMay 30, 2015Vegan special every Thursday. This is perhaps the only place in Rochester that has a legitimate vegan "plate." Many options here. Just ask. They know vegan.
So many great selections for food. While hot dogs are the main attraction (Pitbull is my fave) their plates are great as well.
Best hot dog/burger/garbage plate place in Rochester, if not the world. Cool, eclectic place with a zillion hot dog choices. Great tunes and funky decor. Support your local businesses!
Joe EllisMarch 29, 2015Wonderful hole in the wall. Creative hot dog menu, and a tasty take on the local garbage plate.
Best plates in town, don't let anyone tell you differently.
Diego FigueroaSeptember 18, 2015They make a great garbage plate; order the split garbage plate to get the best of both worlds.
Marc MayerMarch 24, 2015I ate myself into a coma. While I was there, an angel touched my face. I had some sauce on my cheek, he said to me. I woke up and ordered seconds.- Katianna CAugust 5, 2016Highly recommend the golden retriever! Also the sweet potato fries are to die for.
Scott AustinAugust 7, 2014Great variety of dogs and a very serviceable plate, too. Pies and cookies are also tasty.- Fred IngnoshApril 20, 2012Ezekial D's post about veggie items is blatantly false. We use separate sections of the grill for meat items. Vegetarians and vegans are an important part of our business.
Friendly staff, best footlong hotdogs in town, cheap, and quick service. Golden retriever and garbage plates are best with their crispy seasoned home fries.
Amanda SkiSeptember 22, 2011Great food and pet friendly- they brought out a bowl of water and some treats for my dog when we sat outside!
Jason McCafferyMarch 7, 2012Dogtown Bike ride is every Wednesday at 6:30 get here at 6 to eat something and socialize!!! Join rochester bike kids on Facebook if your young at heart and like to ride bicycles!
If you're in the mood for a plate, but not a whole plate. Get the halfie! Best buns in town from petrillos!
Kartik SathappanMay 2, 2016Don't like hot dogs but the spicy sausage and sweet potato fries are great!
Steve CarusoJanuary 15, 2017Best incarnation of the strange Rochester phenomenon known as the "Hots Restaurant"
Sterling DePaulMay 7, 2013The chairs lean back at a good angle. Not only is me belly happy with the food, but my lumbar is happy with these chairs.
Surprisingly great for vegetarians! Try their vege junkyard plate
Sarah Peacock 🎈April 17, 2013Gluten Free plate! OMG! YES! Gluten free dogs (no GF buns/bread though)
Can never go wrong with a good ole Boston Terrier. Bacon, baked beans, and meat sauce is a mean combo.
- Every Friday is Footlong Friday: the special is footlong versions of the regular dogs.
Sree BhandaramJanuary 5, 2011: Definitely gotta try the Chicago bulldog, Cincinnati red and Greek stray! Best dogs ever!
- CassandraMarch 21, 2010Get the Cincinnati with a side order of sweet potato fries. They also have a great vegan/vegetarian selection.
Sue GleasonDecember 20, 2012Soooooo good!!!!! Irish Wolfhound is my favorite!!!! Ok, now I'm hungry. Lol
