Gee, the TopDog employee, truly makes the best hot dog I've ever had! He deserves a raise for his incredible skills! I could barely believe it was a veggie dog—I thought I had accidentally ordered the meat one! No, it was just that Gee is an outstanding cook!

I usually reserve 5-star reviews for exceptional experiences, but these guys truly hit it out of the park, giving my taste buds a 5-star treat today! TopDog is situated in the SouthPoint Mall, one of the busiest shopping centers. It’s a small kiosk located at the back of the food court. Parking is free but can be quite limited, so if you don’t want to struggle for a spot, you can also order through DoorDash for home delivery. It might be easier to find a parking space near the mall entrances and walk through the shopping center to the food court. While the location is great, it could be better as TopDog is kind of tucked away at the back, making it easy to overlook. I was helped by Gee and Demetrius, who were fantastic! Before ordering, I asked Demetrius for a thorough rundown of the menu. He explained everything so well that even the youngest customer could understand. TopDog prides itself on using fresh ingredients every day. Demetrius recommended the Veggie Dog, which is a crowd favorite, so I decided to give it a try—WOW! It was a fantastic hot dog. Make sure to sample the Hawaiian roll! Whoever came up with that idea deserves a medal! It was simply AMAZING! The Veggiewurst is actually beyond meat, and I topped it with grilled onions, paprika, and slaw. They also offer chips as a side. I can confidently say it was one of the best hot dogs I’ve had in years! TopDog accepts Apple Pay and Google Wallet, and they even have a loyalty program called Five Star. If you visit, definitely try the dipping sauce! Some of my favorite aspects of this hot dog place are the quality of the food and the presentation. The hot dogs are top-notch, and the menu is both simple and creative. I love the inventive twist with the Hawaiian rolls. Five stars for TopDog! I can’t wait to come back and try even more!

Well here 's mine: Parking: 2 Location: 5 Decor/ambiance: 5 Customer Service: 5 Lets face it, we all love a good hot dog! TopDog of Durham is AMAZING! I do my best to hand 5 star reviews out sparingly but these guys truly knocked the ball out the park as my taste buds received a 5 star experience today! TopDog is locatedinside of SouthPoint Mall (one of the areas busiest malls). TopDog (TD) is a small kiosk like restaurant sitting at the rear ofthe food court. Parking is free and always limited near the food court. If you don 't feel like fighting the crowd fret not as TDis partnered with Door dash so you can have it delivered to your front door. It may be best to park near the mall entrances andjust walk through the mall to get to the food court if you do tackle the crowd. The location for TD is great but could bebetter. TD is one of the small kiosk sitting in the rear of the food court so its easy to miss them as you 'll mainly see them asyou are exiting. I was assisted by Gee and Demetrius! Prior to grabbing my food I asked Demetrius for the full rundown on themenu. He broke the menu down for me so nicely that the youngest consumer could grasp the concept. Over at TD they pridethemselves on providing fresh ingredients daily. Demetrius told me that the veggie dog was a crowd pleaser so I took him up onhis suggestion and WOWWWW! What an amazing hot dog. Be SURE to try the Hawaiian roll! They toast it the genius who thought ofthis should run for president! Mannnnn... it was AMAZING! The veggie sausage is actually beyond meat . I dressed it withgrilled onions, peppers and slaw. TD offers chips as a side. I must say, this was one of the best hot dogs I 've had in years! TDaccepts Apple Pay and Google Wallet. They even have a loyalty program called Five Star. When you go be sure to try the dippingsauces as well! A few of my favorite things about this hot dog shop is the food for starters! The hot do
