5 Reviews on “Famous Lunch”
Not just a greasy spoon. It’s not just an aesthetic. This place is the real deal. Why have one got dog when you can have two, why have two hot dogs when you can have four covered in meat sauce and mustard. The little dogs are so cute and satisfying to eat. But don’t miss the burger. It doesn’t look like much but it’s truly special. The fries are also perfect. Wish I could be a regular here
Pretty good reasonably price little dig in Troy, NY.
We stopped by on a Tuesday afternoon while heading home from further upstate.
We ordered three hotdogs one “all the way” which includes onions and meat sauce, a chicken sandwich, two large fries, and two Italian sausage sandwiches.
Food was cooked fresh and was well tasting. Reasonable cost and the place has a neat back story involving a marine and the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, so stop by a take a read.
Attaching an updated menu with correct pricing and a few other pics.
Best little hot dog place around. Been going every chance I get for 40+ yrs. It was a tradition that started with my parents that I carried on with my kids. I love that the place has never changed in all those years and brings back memories. Standing outside watching the hotdogs turn. Always bring 2 dzn dogs and extra sauce home.
The food is average but the price is fantastic. I tried the mini hotdogs with the works. They were more like a chili dog than upstate NY meat sauce hot dog. The burger and fries were good. The rice pudding was homemade so, better than the store bought but not quite as good as Grandma’s recipe. It’s nice to see a little mom and pop place like this is still open. You can fill up without shelling out a lot of money.
I love going to this place and bringing out-of-town friends here. It is a great step back in time. Love the homey atmosphere. If you’re lucky you’ll overhear some locals discussing politics. (Not hard to do – they are usually quite outspoken and loud!) My one gripe: even though I’ve visited 50 times, I still don’t know how the service works. If you sit in a booth you could wait forever for someone to notice you. Do you have to order at the counter if you’re sitting in the booth? Do you tip? If so, why? They don’t bring you your food. More likely you have to return to the counter to pick it up. Or it could be handed across the main walkway with an outstretched arm. Then you get no bill. You have to pay on your way to the exit and recount what you ate. This part is strange and makes me a bit uneasy.
