I love this place and it is probably more of a nostalgia thing than anything. When I went back to RI for the holidays I knew I had to find some time to stop into Wiener Genie. The interior itself is nothing to write home about, but would you really expect anything else for a place like this? I can't recall ever having bad service here or ever having a kitchen mix up. I always go with two all the way without onions, some fresh hot fries, and of course a coffee milk to top it off. Mostly just because you can't get coffee milk in NC so might as well appreciate it while I'm there. I love everything about the wieners from the bun to the loads of celery salt. If you are looking for a quick lunch and have some cash, I would recommend stopping in here.

I didn't have any expectations visiting this place from the outside it looks like a convenience store that was run down and past it's time with old memorabilia covering every single inch of the walls. You can tell this was the spot or probably still is for your late night munchies. As for the weiner there is no genie that can make this taste anywhere near delicious. I couldn't figure out if it was the meat sauce or the onion salt but it had a weird flavor to it. The French fries were also greasy it was like I was testing my body to see if I can have a heart attack this year....in my head all I can think about was YOLO YOLO... Most likely won't be coming back to this joint, I'll eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches before giving this place another shot.

Not Very Good Pros: Cool old school setup Greasy Spoon Quality to it Cons: Below Average Food Not Cheap for the Quality Simply walked into this Cash Only business looking for 2 wieners and a small soda. I only had 5 bucks in my wallet and when I went in, I realized that all I could afford were the wieners. A little surprised, I got the food, no drink, and ate the gaggers in the car. They were Weak at best. In a state with an abundance of wiener shops, I would avoid this one. 5 bucks for 2 wieners is a rip off and they weren't very good. So why bother. Thanks

Cook was not too friendly. Weiners were way too expensive. I don't like that it was a cash only establishment. Staff could be better groomed. Only one size soda and its overpriced. Could be cleaner.

Katie sums this place up nicely in her review when she says Weiner Genie is your "typical greasy spoon diner" but it does have its perks. The location has plenty of parking and in comparison to most wiener joints in RI, it is pretty roomy inside. The dining area has plenty of booths and large counters with stools. They also have a pretty big menu and call their shakes cabinets! Good ole' RI style! A friend and I visited on our lunch break. We ordered two wieners each and split an order of fries. We were originally going to order a large fry but the waitress warned us about the extra large portion. I appreciated her honesty and we opted for the small fry, which was more than enough for the two of us. They also keep ketchup and vinegar on the tables for those fries, which makes them extra yummy! The food was tasty and affordable but not the kind of food one should eat too often if you're watching your waistline! Could it be cleaner? Yes. Could the staff be a bit better groomed? Yes. But, there is just something about RI wiener joints when the food doesn't taste quite as delicious unless it is prepared by an old hairy man with a beer belly...

I went to Weiner genie last Tuesday night. 2 other people and myself walked in at around 7pm to an empty counter. After waiting there for service for about 2 minutes I noticed their cook was sitting at the bar eating, at no time does he acknowledge we are standing there. After about 2 or 3 minutes he gets up, walks slowly to put his plate in the sink, washes his hands and walks over to us, never making eye contact or saying a word to us. He grabs his pad and just looks at us, i guess this is my cue to tell him what i want.I had not had weiners in years so I asked him how many weiners does someone usually order if they are having dinner, he stares at me for about 5 seconds, then says in a very condescending voice "....however... Many... You ... Want", I place my order and sit down. The waitress brings us out drinks as soon as we sit down, about 5 minutes later the food gets there. When the food gets there it taste microwaved, the bun taste stale, not at all what I remember from this place. We never see the waitress again so getting a refill on our drinks is out of the question I guess. We were the only customers in the place so I guess the waitress and cook are hanging out in the back room because noone was around. We finish eating and are waiting for our bill which never comes. After waiting close to 10 minutes I decide to wait near the register. It takes someone a couple minutes to come out and let me pay what I owe. I will never be back. In a state where almost every pizza place sells weiners, there is no reason for me to come back to this dive. If the service were better I would at least consider supporting a small local business if I am in the area, but I felt like I was more of a burdon to them, I got the feeling they didnt want to work so us being their was an inconvenience. Their were many dirty tables and the counter was sticky. Again, they were dead so this should all be clean, I see it as a sign of bigger issues behind the counter. No wonder the place was dead, I bet I'm not the only one who feels this way.
