Deerhead Hot Dogs, Maryland Ave

I'm originally from Georgia and it was like stepping in to a down home diner. This is my boyfriend's favorite restaurant. He's been going since he was a child and he shared it with me. I can definitely see why. I don't normally like hot dogs but these were great.

Great spot for hot dogs. Sunday is Dog Day so they're on sale and perfect for a quick lunch

Second time coming here food was very delicious. Customer service was excellent. I even ordered a pilly classic cheese stake with fried onions and mushrooms it was very delicious. I recommend the spot if you’re in the area or location for a authentic cheesesteak.

I love stopping in here. I've been coming here off and on since the late 80s / early 90s. Stopping in the other night I got an extra bonus when I found that a friend I grew up with is working there. Great food, drinks (sodas, milkshakes, etc), and service.

I could tell this place was gonna be legit just from looking at the 50s style sign in the parking lot. Inside, mid century lunch counter/cafeteria vibes. I didn't get a hot dog, which is their main thing, but a few of my friends did and seemed to enjoy. I opted for a steak sam with fried onions and hot peppers. It was very good. I don't eat cheese and a lot of times places will give you some dry a$$ bullsh*t if you abstain from the cow goo, but not here. Roll was on point with a slight chewiness and there was a good heat ratio with the hot peps they used. The fries were crispy and plentiful, and their signiture sauce was solid pairing - it is orange, meat based, and zesty. Its not a chili-dog-like sauce, but not a micky D's mac sauce style affair either. Verdict: This place is a 💎
