The lady there looks upkept and her lack of professionalism is appalling! I asked about her wearing gloves and she got really offended. The other oakland location wear hair nets in addition to gloves so it's no excuse. Her fingers and fingernails disgust me on a soul level. She has claws and gnarly fingers. She handles money and food sometimes which is just unsanitary! They should be investigated
The cheese was not fresh, the dogs had no flavor
This place is my past guilty pleasure and a staple of years in the neighborhood!
Can always count on the ladies at Kasper's to be straight and to the point. What do you want, how do you want it, here you Go! Then a smile and "have a great day!" Other customers there are friendly and diverse. True Oakland staple. I'll be sad when they close. Parking: Lots of parking surrounding building.
A REAL HotDog from an original hot dog place. First time visiting this location and I was not disappointed, nor have I ever been at the multiple locations I have visited before. Had the Kaspars with mustard relish onions and kraut. What else?
My parents, 90 years ago, patronized this Kasper's Hot Dog location when only in their late teens. Here I am, at 75, still eating here when I need a quick "dog fix". I wish the steamed buns were warmer the day I bought my Kasper's cheese dog and they would use a better grade of sharpe cheddar cheese. Though I said, "hold the relish" (which they did) I guess I needed to mention add onion slices (as now they toss in a few chopped onions and call it a day). Spicy mustard is no longer an option, just yellow Parking: Easy ingress and egress to parking where this restaurant is located, on MacArthur Blvd. Wheelchair accessibility: Double glass doors for entry.
Like several other reviews, we too had a bad experience with the service. Not only was the woman behind the counter pretty cranky but she used her bare hands and long nails to grab everything, including dunking her fingers into a bucket of sauerkraut and pulling out fistfuls of it for one of our hot dogs. As soon as we sat down with our food, we discovered a hair in the chili cheese dog. Another review here mentions having asked her to use gloves to which she replied that the gloves would melt. Every other hot dog restaurant and stand in the rest of the civilized world uses tongs, ladles, towels, and gloves to handle hot food. If the gloves are melting, you’re buying the wrong gloves. The woman serving us also did not use gloves to handle the cold food like sauerkraut, onions, or tomatoes. Just bare hands.
The Casper’s on Mac Arthur Blvd the Owner doesn’t wear gloves she touches your hot dog and bread with her bare hands the sight of her will make you turn around I had no choice I was so hungry and you got your son working in there he looks just like her scary
