Been by a number of times this week. A dumpster is in the parking lot but didn’t see anyone there doing work.

All this excited talk inspired a to drive to Bradon to see first hand for the very first time. This is the TripAdvisor review of the trip :

One and Done
Saturday just after noon. Dixieland playing loud. Buzzing and bustling ambiance abundantly adorned with nostalgia. See it once, that will be fine. Taste the food ONCE. That will be fully sufficient. This is a one and done place. Clever, but the food clearly is no draw. Hot dog wrapped so tight that the bun was "smooched" onto the hotdog and the topping were one mess. Despite the fact that King Kong was not evident behind the counter, there is no doubt that he wrapped and rolled that hot dog. Hamburger was dry. Promised slice of red onion was instead sautéed onion. Onion rings had a thick coating overwhelming the onion. More a Star Trek level deflector shield than a flavorful crisp coating. Fries were bland, boring grocery store style frozen crinkle-cuts. All the food was tepid. All the food was tepid, except the cups of water with the loose lids which did not fit securely on the cups.

I'll stick to the Costo Hot dogs nearby.


One and Done - Review of Portillo's Hot Dogs, Brandon, FL - Tripadvisor

I have only been to Brandon once and thought it was okay, but not like up North. It could be that investment firm from Boston is messing with a winning formula. Trip Advisor reviews are still good. Food is very subjective, especially by region. I won't touch Philly cheese steak, or NY pizza.
