Really, really hard to make that call when its been open in the new location for like a week man. Its not like there's a billboard advertising the new prices.

Got there at 12:08 and the line was 35-40 deep. Isn't hurting business. Went down the street to Company Burger instead of waiting.


Last time I went the line was too long to go, so the price increase isn't hurting them, but it is still something to gripe about.

Been longer than that. I do think it is valid to bitch about a dog costing that much.

I'm always full when I leave Company burger, they do a good job there. The Lamb Burger is worth a try if you have not already, and the pork belly corn-hawg was a prize-winner at Hogs for the Cause 2011,

I felt Dat Dog was overpriced to being with. No way in hell I am paying $15 for a hotdog combo. I could get like 5 combos at sonic for that price!

Obviously I don't live there, so I was basing that off of the link below and this being the first I've heard anyone bitch about the prices. How long has it been open at the new location?

What's the difference between the two, and I guess more importantly, when did they raise the price?

a grand opening is kind of like an opening celebration. they invite family and media and such.

they loosely started business ARR 7th. Not fully moved in.


on the 25th they basically say "hey, everything is in working order, come check us out".


Im not sure when they raised the price.I havent been since they first opened. Not enough crunch to their sausage.

I realize what the difference is in the general sense, I meant on a more specific basis to them, but the price change is all I really care about.

Hmm, would I rather pay $16 for 2 lbs of boiled crawfish with no vegetables included here in ATL or $7.25 for a good brat??? Brat for the win, no contest.

Yes, I have tried all of their sausages, they get top quality stuff. I feel like it is worth it, but I would be happier if they just threw fries or chips in for free. I worked in food industry and a little potato starch doesn't cost you much at all.

last time I went to company burger it tasted off..

I think they accidentally put a lamb patty instead of two beef patties... and I've never been a fan of lamb.
