Surf Dogs 1464 Mount Pleasant Road, Chesapeake, VA 23320

"First bad experience here and it will be our last. Waited well over half hour with no food. People seated well after us were served. Server was confused, forgot drink order, had to re- order. Food never came. The place only had one paper menu and it was inaccurate? New management, perhaps, but this experience ruined it for us. Too many other hot dog joints to choose from for this level of service."

"Today was my first day trying this restaurant and I ordered a Philly with large fries and a banana split. It was delicious I ate all the Philly no additional season needed, it had a bit of heat as an undertone awesome heat."

"11/22/2023 I had the pleasure of meeting my mother and brother up here for lunch on Wednesday afternoon the day before Thanksgiving. I think it was about 1:45pm when we arrived. There were still some folks in there eating lunch, however we had no problem grabbing a table right away. Our service was immediate and one of several young ladies who visited the table stopped by and took our drink orders. She came back a few minutes later with our drinks and then took our lunch order. I had a bacon cheeseburger and small fry (of course I did). Mom had a BBQ sandwich and small fry and my brother had the Just Chill'in burger which is a cheeseburger with chili on it, and he also had chili cheese fries. We added a order of onion rings as an app. It took I'd say about 15 minutes for our orders as there was a big order in front of ours. The meals came out to perfection. My burger was slightly pink in the middle and tasted great. I heard no complaints from anyone. Our server and another one kept checking on us regularly and topping off our drinks. We were offered desert however we all declined. I had to get back to work and they had more shopping to do. All in all is the meal I've come to expect from Surf Dogs and I'm looking forward to my next visit sometime soon. -------------------- 6/20/2022 Happy to see Surf Dogs has returned to form. There were some dark days over the last couple of years when the restaurant was sold to a person that had no business running a restaurant. He ran the long standing staff off, and then ran the customers off with his half-cooked slop. Sometime over the last year it was sold again and there's another set of new owners. It's a husband and wife and it's been a really nice turn around. I popped in there for lunch recently and like I said, it's been a nice return to form. Also some of the old staff is back, in fact the lady running the floor when I was there was one of them. I brought a co-worker in and we ordered lunch. I had my standard, a bacon cheeseburger and fries. BTW, this is a hand made patty. The only difference I noticed were they were straight cut fries instead of the previous crinkle cut ones. The meal portion was spot on and I was comfortably full afterwards. Prices are good as well, full meal of burger fries and drink came out to about $13 before the tip. I'm happy things have cleared up there and look forward to going again soon. It's hot out and a perfect time to stop and get a home made milkshake."

"Foods good, prices are good, service is good. Lots of ice cream selection. Burger, fries, and hot dogs! Will go back!"

"I had a great experience here. The food was good and the hot dog had that classic taste to it. I ordered the “Surf Dog” without slaw and a side of fries. The price was about the same as any combo meal. The waitress was really friendly. I’ll be back!"
