Shorty’s

Shortys has good dogs. Not GREAT dogs but good dogs. Both locations are old, outdated and pretty dirty. Not gross but pretty dirty. The fries and gravy are good and the prices are reasonable. But they only accept cash. I know they do this so they don't have to pay the fees for using cards, but this costs them a lot of my business as I don't carry cash. So I head to Jimmy Johns or somewhere that accepts cards. They do have an ATM inside the restaurant but lord only knows what the fees would be for an ATM withdrawal. And of course that's not a credit card anyhow. If they would clean up a bit and accept cards they would do much better in my opinion.

This place is a Washington living legend. I am 66 years old and have loved this food since I can remember. I've enjoyed two with everything, gravy fries and chocolate milk at the downtown, Wolfdale and Washington mall (when the mall was still open) locations. I moved to DFW Texas many years ago but always do Shorty's when I visit. This is the best hotdog in the world bar none!
