On the brink of being better than olneyville New York system! Restaurant hasn't been updated in at least 50 years but who cares. You're there for wieners all the way! Better eat inside or your car is going to smell like onions for 3 to 5 days. Well worth it either way Enjoy!

Has got to be the best weenie sauce in the state. Try it, you will come back for more. Three all the way and a coffee milk, wicked good. We keep going back for our Rhode Island treat.

We were in town for a hockey tournament, and a great friend of mine recommended this place. I'm so grateful he did. The dogs were incredible, the wings had my kiddos arguing over who was getting the last one, & the burger was fantastic. If you're a hot dog person, I recommend 6 all the way! The best part about all of it was how affordable it was. Thank you!

Best weiners. I have been going here since I was a kid. The previous location burned down years ago. You can't compare to other NY Systems. Other locations just don't come close. The owner is a sweetheart and my boyfriend and I make a point of it to go every time we are in Rhode Island. Last time, I bought a Sam's shirt and I proudly wear it! Can't wait to go back.
