    I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Everything is fantabulous, you can't go wrong with anything you order... My absolute favorite is the Clucker + they serve Katz coffee, local coffee roaster...THE BEST COFFEE!!!

    Great service and I love the Texas dog...it's BYOB so you can bring a nice bottle of wine while you enjoy one of their "to die for" pastries! The Italian cream cake is one of my favorites.

    They're happy to put just about anything on that hot dog - including pimento cheese (the Lotus Blossom), baked beans (the St. Louis), charro beans (Perro de Mexico) and a lot more. [Eater 38 Member]

    The Clucker is a breakfast on a dog. The bacon, egg and hash browns are seasoned and work well together. Yum.

    Had the Texas chili dog. Great bun, and big enough for a meal. Great service too. Not the best hot dog in the heights though. Good cheese cake.

    Try their Gorgonzola Cheesecake. The Gorgonzola has different dimensions of pungent flavor that emerge depending on whether you eat it warm or chilled.

    Try some of their gourmet bites like a savory cheesecake made with a blend of fresh herbs and cheeses.

    Really delish dogs. My only complaint is that they have only dill relish and I prefer sweet.
