Andrews Atomic Dogs - Spartanburg

Out of curiosity we decided to try this Atomic Dogs on Union St, in the middle of nowhere. Restaurant was 50ies decor and was done tastefully and clean besides the leaks in bathroom with buckets having to maneuver your self to toilet. So, we looked over menu with a vast selection of different foods other than Hot Dogs which is the main Attraction.So, we decided on Wolfdog Atw Combo, dog, fries, and drink of choice. In the process of payment he informed me it would be .50 charge for using any type of payment other than cash. I was absolutely shocked about this transaction and proceeded to pay. So, we went to car and I decided to look at what this product was all about and to my surprise not a Hotdog, but a sausage that can be bought at most any grocery store. Chili was so disgustingly sweet and not your at all normal chili. He stated it was secret recipe and OMG it's definitely a secret to never be released. Fries were old and greasy and probably pre-cooked and re-fried. Bun was microwaved and hard. I had high expectations about this restaurant and received a total nightmare, spending about 17.00 and had to toss in garage. Sorry, Andrew you definitely need to improve your restaurant and serve decent quality food.

We arrived about 2:30 and Andrew and his staff were very friendly and welcoming. He explained his menu while the staff immediately began to prepare our food. As Andrew himself said, his hotdogs were the BEST! We'll definitely be back when we pass this way again!Food: 5/5

Delicious dogs! 10/15/2022 update:Yep, still visiting this place (almost) weekly.Family run. GOOD people! Delicious dogs! 08/13/2022 update.We go here weekly, and after looking through my earlier review nothing changes!Great dogs.Amazing people!!!The food is (obviously) made with love and their service is an extension of (that) love. Love, love, LOVE this place!!!We have walked past it on our trips on the (Spartanburg) Rail Trail, but had never stopped.They were featured in the Taste of the Carolinas: Dog Days of Summer article in the AAA of the Carolinas Go Magazine as their favorite hotdog place in Spartanburg so we saw that as a personal challenge to go try it out.Mr. Morrow (Andrew) is phenomenal! What a first impression! His customer service skills are off the chart and his charm is second to none. ?With Andrew: it wasn 't so much of IF we were going to purchase something for lunch as much as it was HOW MANY things we would buy for lunch. ?Andrew skillfully relayed to us that he used only all beef franks and they had two types of homemade chili. One was regular, and the other was the Atomic . His description of the Atomic style had me intrigued!Before you tune out here remain calm just as Andrew explained the Atomic is neither immediately hot nor (so) hot that one cannot taste the dog (and whatever other toppings one chooses). This chili enhances the taste of the dog. Mr. Morrow takes pride in serving very tasty food.The regular chili is probably on the sweet side but it is delicious!!! The Atomic waits a moment after hitting your palate before a rich spice sets in. Again, it 's NOT crazy hot it 's just a bit spicy. I found it to be fabulous!!!We had the regular dog plate which came with fries and a drink. Added an Atomic dog (for me) and it was (for us) just the right amount of food.Before I forget the all beef franks are delicious! ....and they aren 't the humongous things that are tough a rubber but normal sized dogs and they are placed in a perfectly grilled bun. Yeouza, they are good!! ?We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Andrew 's Atomic Dogs and will return not only for the hotdogs but to try one of their dinner plates.I am getting hungry just thinking about it! ?️They have QUITE the selection and are adding new items to the menu.Go and enjoy this little gem.

The hot dogs with very good. The fries should have been a little bit more hotter.I got a sweet tea for drink, I thought it should have been a little bit more better.Great place of a go back again
