    My boyfriend and I moved here about a year ago and we were missing some Chicago so we came to get a Chicago dog and we were pleasantly surprised excellent customer service and a wonderful wonderful experience.

    This hurts to write this review because the staff was very generous. I've lived in Tampa over 20yrs and first time trying Mel's Hotdogs. Unfortunately it was as mediocre as a hot-dog can get. Extremely expensive for these tiny hotdogs and fries with no seasoning. $40 for 2hot dogs and a corndog. Absolutely pathetic. If your in the mood for hotdogs just make them at home honestly.

    Best damn hotdog I’ve ever had in my entire life. There’s also a beautiful article on the wall of the owner and I had a pleasure running into him once Saturday after getting my nails done. I always enjoy the food here. It’s a classic hot that you can’t get anywhere along with the ingredients that fresh relish, beautiful if you are ever in Tampa, take the time to visit this little Jenn gives you that nice classic Feeld home vibe and more importantly I love to support small businesses who are Good at Hart they care about the quality and integrity of their service in their food. This establishment is it

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Mel’s Hot Dogs is such a fun Tampa spot! It has that classic, old-school hot dog joint feel, and the food absolutely hits the spot. 🌭 The hot dogs were loaded with toppings, the fries were hot and crispy, and everything tasted fresh and delicious. I especially loved the slaw dog—messy in the best possible way! The atmosphere is part of the experience too, from the retro interior to the iconic hot dog car out front. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in Tampa and craving a great hot dog. We’ll be back!
