Typical old school American drive-in food at its best with homemade root beer, floats and all the fixings. Great chili dogs great cheeseburger with bacon great chili cheese fries.! Where else can you go nowadays and get your burger wrapped in plain white paper nostalgia, delivered in a plain nostalgic white paper bag… Stumbled across this place going to another restaurant we walked out of because the food was bad, because I saw this place on the way there we stopped on the way back.. should have listened to myself on the way to the other restaurant because this place is one of the last mom and pops old school drive in hole in the wall places that isn’t a chain. It’s a true gem and I’ll be making special trips to just eat here!
The bacon cheeseburger is worth getting. It had a good flavor profile with the toppings as the sauteed onion was done very well. My favorite topping by far was the fresh carmelized onion. On the outside it was caramelized but it had a crisp sharp interior. Thats hard to do with white onion. The burger though, is a bit dry and flavorless overall and that is why the bacon and mayo really brought in the complementary flavor profile while also saving the day with their added moisture to the burger as a whole. I would reccomend adding some butter or olive oil to the meat maybe to truly pick up the flavor and juices. Playing with some spice would do good too. I think that the Owner's should make sure their staff know the history of this place as well, and thats really what drew in the 3 star for service. Overall they were nice, but when we asked about the historical relevance of the location... there was a lack of knowledge and as a result she was short with conversation.
People say Bills Hot Dogs is the best around I disagree cause they must have not tried Vinces Im not even a big hot dog fan but ill tear up a chili dog from here! Best around!
