Decent dogs.  I don't like that they cut it in half but hey who am I to judge oh wait this is Yelp.

Quit doing that Fatt Dog!

Overall pretty good.  The staff here is super nice too even when some people are being jerks after watching a movie.

Wow, these guys just made my life a little bit better. Last Saturday we had a birthday party for the oldest kid, and we decided to take 9 of his best friends and some parents to the movies.

I pre-arranged with the Fatt Dog folks to have 20 corndogs ready to get picked up after the movie. Not only did they REMEMBER our pre-arrangement (yay post-it notes!), they gave us drinks to go with all those corn dogs! Danny had the whole place hopping to help us out. And if you've ever had 10 hungry 7-year olds waiting, you know how time is of the essence.

Thanks you guys for the great service. The kids loved the dogs.

I DO NOT like Fatt Dog.

I DO NOT like my Fatt Dog split in half.

I DO NOT like the size of my Fatt Dog... for it was NOT FAT!

I DID NOT dislike the lemonade I had with my Fatt Dog.

I DO NOT like to go the mall for a Fatt Dog other than having a Hot Dog on a Stick!

**2 stars because the people are nice.

Why aren't there more hot dog joints? I crave a place where the skin on the sausage snaps when you bite into it. Where you can't identify exactly what kind of meat is in the hot dog, but you just don't care.

Fatt Dog is pretty good. They're nice folks, and you can get a decent dog. But they have no competition (except maybe the Costco food court).

I wish... Oh, how I wish... for a truly great hot dog experience in the Bay Area.

i like fatt dog. this is the only food spot in the mall worth going to aside from BJ's. i havent been to the one in berekely yet. but the people here are really nice!

i love their strawberry lemonade and their chilli cheese fries. their  gourmet dogs are pretty good too! i like their chicken apple one. however, the last time i was there i ordered a corndog. i was a bit disappointed when i found out they didnt make their own corndogs. foster farms makes it! hahah. and they sell them for like $3 a pop! BoOoOo! i had higher expections. but their food is pretty good.

4 stars cuz i like the food and service

Probably the best choice for food in the mall.  Lots of choices to choose from.  I have had the Hot Link, which was surprisingly tame, the German Frank which was good, but the best one yet was the Calabrese, or Italian.  Meals with fries and a drink are about $7 ... I think.  The fries are good, but I wish I could salt them myself.  I don't like fries that are too salty.  You can add sauteed onions for 55 cents, but why?  They have raw onions you can add on.  Next I want to try the Chicken Apple.  

I agree with Kari ... what is in that Orange Chicken??  Skip the other places and head upstairs to Fatt Dog.

I really wanted a hot dog but for some reason didn't get one at Costco.  Found myself at the mall and whadda know, they have a new restaurant - Fatt Dog.  The Fries were really good.....I had the Santa Fe which was a turky dog with red AND green chile and cilantro.  A wee bit smaller than I expected - remember I considered Costco but really good.  They also have a pricey fresh squeezed lemonaide which I didn't try but I'll bet is good.

Excellent service, delectable and top-notch condiments, and superb dogs! Not just beef, but also spicy chicken, turkey, and my personal favorite: the veggie dog made from soy protein, wheat gluten, and tofu. This is a cheap and tasty alternative to your typical mall food options. Two items at Panda Express = $8.00. Regular Super Steak at Great Steak = $5.25. Each dog at Fatt Dog = $3.25. An easy choice for me. Besides, you don't really know what's in that orange chicken anyways, right?
