The patio/parking lot in the back doesn't make for a great dining experience. ”

The beer-battered onion rings were very good, but not much better than any other beer-battered onion rings. ”
- “
hadn't been to Pink's in years, but visited them again this past Saturday / Sunday morning at 2am to find the chili cheese dogs were still delicious, the lines still long, the crowd dressed for cubbing and recovering from a little too much to drink. ”

The food is not bad but it's not the greatest. ”

There was always a line wrapping around Pinks any night of the week,, and the reason I've come to find out is this: stupid Americans with non existent food standards who follow the herd, even if it means waiting an hour for the worst hot dogs ever. ”
