In comparing hot dog ranch to teos, its cross town rival, one needs a very developed wiener palate like me. The wiener here is a bit stiffer than those in teos, but as I always say, a wiener can never be too stiff! This Asian's wiener belongs to hot dog ranch!

We moved out of the area 5 years ago. At 3,000 miles, the Hot Dog Ranch is no longer within walking distance to our home. But they are still the only Berkshire culinary treat that I absolutely crave. Sure, there are a few new shops and restaurants in the area. But nothing that really got us excited during our last trip. Except for these hot dogs. I dream of opening up a 'sister' hot dog ranch in the Portland area. Add some good microbrews and you have an almost instant success. The baby hot dogs are hard to describe to someone that did not grow up in the area. They are like a sweeter miniature version of a coney island dog. The sauce blends perfectly with the fresh snap of the dog and the steamed bun. At just over a buck a piece they can either serve as a great meal or a quick snack. I miss them already.

I recently moved back home and this was the first place I wanted to eat. No questions asked. There is a good rivalry between HDR (Hot Dog Ranch) and Teo's. HDR takes the cake. 1) When you bite into a hotdog it's not supposed to be rubbery as such as you find at Teo's. HDR has a pop when your teeth puncture the casing of the hotdog which tells me it was cooked well and carefully. 2) The rolls. Well the rolls are pretty much the same for both places. Steamed soft rolls cut deep enough to fit the hot dogs and mounds of toppings however the HDR rolls are a little bigger. (More value for your $ if you ask me). 3) The toppings. Personally I always get an even # of hot dogs. 6-8-10 if I'm feeling starving. My rule... 50/50 split. One have get everything (Sauce, Mustard Onions), the other half gets KMR (Ketchup, Mustard, Relish). I like to alternate them. The biggest debate is who has the better sauce. Hands down I've gotta give it to HDR over Teos. For one they put more on the hot dogs than Teos does. HDR isn't shy with whatever toppings you want and I feel that's important. At the price per dog (which I'll get into next) I want a lot of savory sauce on my hotdogs. They don't overkill the onions and the mustard is just right. You can't really mess up Ketchup or Relish so I'll leave those out. 4) The price: 1.20 per dog has become steep. However I understand that it's just inflation due to rising operating costs. They are the same as Teo's so not much competition. All goes back to getting your value and at HDR I feel my money goes further. Better toppings, better dogs and better experience 5) HDR takes the cake with overall appearance. While Teo's is in an industrial zone, HDR is in the downtown area. They both see a lot of business and I feel that HDR is a lot more cleanly. I feel the lighter wood makes it a more inviting experience for dining in as to Teo's dark wood. I also look at the bars. The bars are comparable but Teo's is more sports styled. 6 T.V's make it a great bar for a game at the HDR. (Owner is a big Sox, Pats,Celtics fan) so memorabilia is ample. Service is fast and free refills are nice for drinks on soda. One HUGE item that stands out is that HDR has a map of the USA so you can pin where you came from if you moved out of the area or are in Pittsfield for the first time. Definitely leave a pin if you are from out of area, I know I like to look at it. 6) One important note if you made it this far is that HDR doesn't accept cards. BRING CASH! My 8 dogs and 1 soda cost 12.10 after tax and 14 after tip. Definitely worth it!

I ate there today for the first time. It was great! I read the reviews, went with them. The only problem was I should have ordered more of them LOL. My recommendations are to get at least 6. I will be back.

Great menu. Service is personable, which I like, and I find other places serving drinks lack the charm, but the hot dogs are what matter to ya, huh? Well Forget the dogs for a second! the cheesey tots, the brocolli bites, just about everything on the menu is a great treat for a game and a pint. The barkeeps are friendly, and the people at the grill are nice enough too. This is the BEST place to get a mini hot dog in my opinion, ever since they revamped the place years and years ago. The beer isn't cheap, but the dogs are a feast! My son loves them and so do I !!!! :)

While in Pittsfield we decided to stop in at the Hot Dog Ranch to buy a few dogs for the road. The restaurant itself is set a bit back off the main strip, but it was easily accessible. The restaurant is a tad warn down, but it was nice that the takeout area was separate from the sit down side. The takeout area had great staff and the dogs here were tasty. Personally the sauce here isn't my favorite, but I liked the dog and bun. Overall, not a bad dog or restaurant, but the place could be a bit updated. The other minor critique is that the price per dog is a bit high, but not bad every once and a while.

It was time to make the comparison on who has the better wiener in the Berkshires. The Ranch is a bar that you can eat in or they have a nice takeout area that is not inside the bar. The prices for a wiener are $1.20 each. The bar is very clean inside with Sports memorabilia on the walls. They serve the same dog and steamed bun as the other place in town. The dog and bun were very hot and had a good snap. The difference came down to the sauce. The sauce here at the Ranch was much stronger than I had at Teos. The bottom line is they a have a good product here but we enjoyed the sauce at Teos better. On the go with........ gooddiggin.com

hot dogs were ok......service was dispicable. The waiter was awful and when we didn't have cash he was even ruder! Pointed us to the atm. We scrounged up the cash and he brought change in all nickels! And chased us out the door hollering at us! Never again!!

I loved this place when I lived in the Berkshires. So cheap and so good! Probably awful for your diet, but whatever. Good food for cheap is never a bad thing. The chicken wings are my favourite and the hot dogs are brilliant. Honestly, can't tell the difference between Teo's and these, both are good. Only advantage HDR has is they have wings. Definitely recommend this place. P.S. Cash only!
