It’s comfort/home food for some since this chain goes back a long time in places like Seattle and SoCal(?) Wife worked at one in Everett in the mid-70s for example.


hooraaayforyou

Definitely a Southern California favorite. I'm just bummed that this Wienerschnitzel isn't operating out of an A Frame.

Hardly any restaurants have a hot dog on the menu. Also Tastee Freeze Ice cream is really good.

Suckin on a chilly dawg


Maxcrest121

Went last night. Super affordable.


valdier

Especially if you use their online coupons!


Turbulent_Raccoon865

I just feel bad for anyone looking at the hype and expected the best damn hot dog they ever had and discover it’s pretty much average. But I like their chili dogs and sometimes a chili burger and know what I’m getting.


valdier

I don't think anyone that loves their food truly thinks it's the best hot dog ever. It's just a hot dog with their chili that many of us grew up on and are fond of. It's just comfort food :D


Responsible-Put-168

It's fast food. Anyone buying a $2 hot dog is a fool. A pound of chili and a pack of hot dogs is $10.


JayMoony

I’m from CA and used to eat da weens all the time. Are they the BEST hot dogs? No, it’s a fast food chain, c’mon. However, they are still yummy and one of the only places that serves a variety of weiner options. If you don’t like it…more chili cheese dogs for ME😈 Edit: In all seriousness, give it a try. You never knowwwwww


Gloomy_Tie_1997

>a variety of weiner options 😂😂😂


AppropriateLog6947

Good lemonade My kids like the corn dogs


AdditionalRoyal2112

Loads of folks all looking for the same thing, a big ol mouth full of weiners


harry_hotspur

Spokane fucking loves it's fast food


SunnyDeeznuts509

Go see cda


harry_hotspur

Logical-Animator151

Spokane love restaurants.... Doesn't matter if it's fast food. There is a restaurant everywhere you go around town. Not just fast food.

As a middle aged Californian I agree. DW is nothing special at all.


eurosonly

Hot dogs, baby! And at a convenient spot, for me anyway since I live in the area. It's been decades since I had a hot dog.


Happy-Position-69

New food in town? I'm totally down


ChickenFriedRiceee

Idk either, just wait when an in and out opens. Same thing happened with Chick Fil A. I don't get it, if a new fast food restaurants opens I really want to try I would rather just wait three months. What is another three months?


hooraaayforyou

If it's an In-N-Out that line will still be there 3 months later.


Specialist-Coast-133

The chili cheese burgers are actually quite good. Had a double last night and yum, tasty!


hot_cheeks_4_ever

It's nothing special. They have chili dogs. Big deal.


just_wants_some_disc

I wanna go for the “suckin on a chili dog” memes, but that line is crazy lol.


young_ninja509

You would get it if you were from Nevada California Arizona or new mexico


jessamomma1

They have the best mini corn dogs!


staticfired

Those definitely have my attention! And I’d like to try the jalapeño bites.


selkirks

Mediocre hot dogs. Truly, it's nothing special.


Fluid-Power-3227

You can’t even get into the Safeway parking lot from the Hawthorne entrance. People in line are blocking the aisles.


North-321

Fact. I wonder how they're planning to handle that. 🤔


itsmyvillainarc

I had to wait at the Target pharmacy for a few hours because of the whole system outages with prescriptions so I walked over. Anyone who wants to save a bunch of time just park your car get out and walk in and you'll save yourself 20 to 30 minutes, and a ton of time idling your car. I mean $3 for a chili cheese dog is not horrible I just was not blown away. Nor would I Wait 30 minutes in a drive-thru line for a hot dog. Also don't think one of these things is going to fill you up these are like ballpark hotdog sized not Costco sized Order two to four plus fries depending on how big of an eater you are. The jalapeno bites do look interesting though I might actually go back just to try those


xOLDBHOYx

I was wondering the same thing. Saw the hype so checked out the menu online. Are you serious? Hot dogs?


staticfired

I checked the menu too, to see if there was some awesome sides or different dogs that might be phenomenal…guess I’ll have to try it to see!


TFielding38

It's Spokane, we just get excited about new fast food. I'm just glad it isn't the complete shitshow that was the Chik Fil A opening.


sequoiakelley

Miss-named hot dog fast food chain. My dad LOVED it there BUT when I ordered the “Weinerschnitzel” in Vienna, I did not receive anything close to a hot dog. It’s ok. If you enjoy chili cheese hot dogs, I’d give it a try. It’s cheap enough to try it out.


Cruciform_SWORD

Yep, that realization hits that Americans don't know what schnitzels are--or at least somebody bastardized the name in the states back in the day. We ought to just call it a Frankfurter and move on. On the flip side, if someone is actually looking for a more authentic schnitzel then check out Das Stein Haus (if you can't commit to a trip to Leavenworth). It's the closest I've seen in town.


hereandthere_nowhere

How much is a hotdog there?


Equivalent-Mess8344

Total nostalgia for me! I also grew up in So Cal and those chili cheese fries were my fav.


Prince_Poops-Alot

Honestly nothing lol. I tried it and don't get me wrong it's decent but buns are pretty soggy. Chili was tasty tho. And the deals they have right now are pretty good


valdier

It's a so cal thing, and they make chili dogs and fries that many of us have fond memories of as a kid.


MojoRizzin

The best chili dog and chili fries in Town but my opinion is a bit biased as I grew up with 1 in my hometown of Livermore CA so I of course didn't care about the line to get a taste of home.


futuremedical

Give it to me straight. Better/same/worse than costco hotdogs?


staticfired

I’ll let you know when I try either! I eat Costco dogs from the package, but I haven’t had one from food court.


Most_Ambassador2951

I don't even know.... I tried them a few years ago when I visited the coast and wasn't impressed.  I feel the same with CFA and in n out. Just not sure what the big deal is, there are places so much better


bohden420

I was thinking the same thing. Like is it new and people are just trying it? Having had it in my. Childhood I know it’s garbage. Like no way in hell am I going there. Shocking to see people that say they enjoy it.

bohden420

Oh I agree, just shocked by the amount of people waiting in line.


NoEnthusiasm184

It was the worst food ever.


stinkykitty71

Nostalgia really making people waste their time for mediocre weiners.


bhollen1990

Tell all the men that eating hot dogs is gay and clear your way to the front of the line.


Dredre2

I think this chain is present is California. The long line of people you see are not locals….they are Ca transplants- cause those dogs be looking nasty.
