I feel so bad for this place. Hardly any business, and the owners are soo nice.
I can only gauge how good this place is based on my favorite hot dog by hebrew national...all beef. The place looks old, the hot dogs don't inspire a lot of confidence just sitting in the steamer.
I have had this place 3 times now trying different "dogs." All of them should be retired to doggy heaven because of several factors:
1. It's small- the hotdog is around $4 and it's a weenie litterally
2. I can feel the capsule around the meat- not good
I'm all about good value but this place will just make you feel guilty eating a hot dog, upset that you spent $4 on it, and depressed knowing the owners probably eat this everyday to save some bucks.
Sorry :(
Yummmm! I love Casper's/Kasper's! The one in Theater Square is the most accessible to me, and I'd love to eat there more if hot dogs had less calories :)
Their polish dogs and original dogs are scrumptious. They also offer a variety of chips and some drinks (and specialty drinks such as crushed ice lemonade). They have some very interesting items on the menu for those adventurous eaters such as the nacho dog, the double dog, the chili cheese dog, and this pretty good extra spicy hot link dog. I'd definitely recommend coming here if you're in the mood for a good hot dog and friendly service.
The parking is generally OK, but since it's Theater Square, you're going to have some troubles finding parking on weekends and in the late afternoon/evening on weekdays. There is, however, a garage available for use right near the place. It costs money during certain hours, but it's still pretty convenient.
Not to be confused with the chain of the differently-spelled-name.
Boiled weiners, steamed buns, and a very very basic preparation your thing? Â *Maybe* you'll like it.
BBQ'd yourself or Top Dog from Berkeley is a million times better than this.
The owners are very nice people, and the place is clean, but this one always disappoints as incredibly bland and boring. Â Maybe the little kidlets like it because it's so plain. ?
My big brother loves this place, and whenever he visits, this is our first destination after the airport pick-up.... I can only eat one per visit. But somehow, Big Bro manages to put away MANY. How many? I'll let you guys ask him. =)
Haven't tried a Costco Hot Dog yet. maybe my mind will change if I try that??????
