My impression of the New Al's.....\n\nI was thrilled to see Al's was open again and stopped for a hot dog....\nI knew exactly what I wanted but glanced at the menu to make sure it was the same and my eyes popped out of head!!!\n\nOMG.....the prices have JUMPED!   I asked if the hot dog was bigger than it used to be..thinking that would be at least a reason for the price hike...one person said yes...the other owner? said no....\n\nTurns out the hot dog was the same size...still a good hot dog...but I was not happy paying about $1.50 more for the same size hot dog.\n\nLet's get to the fries...which I have always enjoyed as they remind me of the hot dog joynt I grew up going to in Chicago....the fries were o.k....but there was sooooo much salt on them and so many old looking fries I just couldnt eat them.\n\nI am sure I will be back to try the beef...only because Lukes SUCKS....\n\nUnfortunately now that Al's is charging as much as Lukes...their beef will  have to be pretty darn good to keep me as a customer.\n\nOverall....very dissapointed....\n\nNote to the owners...... You really need to have above average food to compensate for your price hike if you want to not end up closing down again.\n\nJust because we are in Scottsdale doesnt mean we are willing to throw away money on bad food!
