    Those hot dogs are fantastic! I was so excited to share our Mexican hot dog eating style with my husband. We followed the TikTok link to a gas station on the corner of 380 and McDonald in McKinney, TX. My husband had two hot dogs wrapped in bacon, topped with grilled jalapeños and onions, all smothered in nacho cheese. I had a similar hot dog, but with grilled queso Oaxaca (that delicious Mexican string cheese). I was planning to try an esquite (corn in a cup), especially since they make it with real white corn on Fridays and Saturdays, but the hot dogs were so filling, I had to grab a lid for my cup and take it home. We arrived early and could see they get quite busy. Definitely worth the drive to McKinney. Oh, and they also do catering and private parties and events.

    Best street hot dog! If you are looking for white elote, this is the place. The fresas con crema were also excellent! Not overly sweet, just perfect Will definitely be back.

    This place served the best hot dog I’ve ever had! Picked up some other elote for my friends and they loved it too! I definitely recommend if you’re in the area and have time for a quick bite. The owners are super sweet too!

    If you’re a true Mexican corn connoisseur like me, look no further - this place serves some of the most authentic elote you’ll find anywhere. I tried the esquites and fresas con crema, both absolutely divine and reminiscent of the flavors from Veracruz. If I lived here, I’d be back every day LOL!! Definitely support this local gem. They deserve every bit of success for bringing such rich culture and flavor to the community.

    If you have had a street dog before u can tell you that you have never had one that tastes this good!! The cheese is a must. Delicious quality. Can’t wait to come back and try more like their homemade cookies and fresas con crema.

    Insanely good bacon wrapped hot dogs, elote is delicious it's different with the white corn but the cheese makes up for it! I'd add a pic of the hot dog but I ate it to fast!

    People who work here are amazing and I’m not surprised it translates through their food. After I ordered a bit of a crowd came in and the gentleman working there that night was so apologetic that it took a bit longer to prepare the ramen, not sure how long it usually takes but I would’ve waited as long as it took lol and it couldn’t had been more than 10 minutes. It was just amazing witnessing the teamwork and hospitality it made the food taste even better than it already does. Next time I’ll be trying the hot dogs!
