    Want employees that will make your child cry… Go to dinner here!!!!. My family and I have never been so horribly treated anywhere! I spent $30 on crappy cold food because I thought it would be an iconic dinner that my 6 year old would enjoy, instead he ended up in tears because of a mean older male employee, they stole my money, and then were disrespectful and rude. Even more ridiculous is they have a sign asking for happy dependable employees. They need to dismiss the entire staff at this point. The owners should be ashamed to hire such disgraceful people. On our first visit we called ahead because we were coming in about 15 minutes before close to get a to go order because we did not want to be rude and keep them there after close. They said no problem and to come on by. When we arrived ,there were two tables of people still eating inside yet we still chose food to go to avoid being rude. While we were waiting for our food I gave my son $2 in quarters to play an old arcade game they had. An older man that worked there actually came over and pulled the plug out of the wall on my 6 year old because he wanted to leave.. but our food still wasn’t even cooked yet. My son was very sad and started to tear up about the mean man. About 5 minutes later they gave me food and forgot my sons fries so I asked them for them and the young blonde girl behind the counter was a complete jerk and did not want to be bothered by me and told me that i don’t get anything else. I then asked for the lady that took my order as she was the only decent person in the entire place. Then that evil man that upset my son came behind the counter and started freaking out about me asking for my fries and I even tried to give them my receipt. The blonde girl ended up taking the second hot dog off my sons plate and traded it for fries! No one would even get the lady that took my order.

    Screams Cedar Rapids. One of the places I take anyone visiting from out of town. It’s a CR staple, and really hits the spot after an afternoon downtown in the summer 🙂

    Not Chicago … But still Good. This is not Chicago. That should be obvious. But it might be the closest you’re going to get to a Chicago-style dog while you’re in Eastern Iowa. The atmosphere is fun and the food is good. I had wanted to go for a long time, but never had. I actually took my office there for my birthday last year. It was good. Everybody seemed to enjoy their lunch.

    Best Gyros Outside of Chicago. Yes they have the Kronos meat log spinning in the back. They sizzle the stuff on the grill right in front of you. When my wife was pregnant she could not get enough of the fresh cut fries covered in chili and cheese sauce. Not for those on low sodium diets, but save up for it, its worth it!!!

    Best Hot Dogs in CR!!!. The Flying Wienie is a great hot dog place, with authentic chicago style hot dogs and real neon green relish. The do have more than hot dogs there, such as gyros.It’s a small, funky place. It’s not dirty, it just has a lot of cool decor there.It’s easy to mistake the cashier, and I think he’s the owner, as rude. But he just has a dry sense of humor, and he’s really trying to be friendly. I takes a couple of visits to get used to.It is a little pricey just for hot dogs, but they are very, very good. So that’s really the only negative thing I can say about the place.CR doesn’t have much in the way of great food, but this is one of the few places that I would call great.

    Fun place to grab a bite. They have a pretty varied menu for such a small place. Great gyros and awesome hand cut French fries. The interior is pretty funky but I wouldn’t call it dirty at all. Just well aged with a certain patina. Beats eating at any of the big chain restuarants.
