Everything here is delicious. It is a Cedar Rapids staple and iconic location with the airplane on the roof and airplane decorations throughout the inside. They have fantastic hot dogs, gyros, burgers and appetizers. The French fries are unique and tasty as well. What a great place to eat, especially on a nice day outside sitting on their outdoor patio in the front. I definitely recommend having lunch here.
If you've never had a gyro and fries here, can you really say you've experienced a gyro? I didn't think so.
This is a must when in Cedar Rapids. Where else can you go for great good than a building with a plane on the roof?
Great dogs. Fresh toppings. Buns were soft and sweet. The vintage decorations are very classic and fun. Great staff. Many options available. Chicago dogs are great. Chili dogs are great. I'll go back to try the sandwiches. The prices are just right as well. Good value.
Got the bacon and cheese dog with fries. Definitely worth it. Glad we stopped in for a bite.
My favorite place to go as a child and I went there a couple days ago and the food is just as yummy as I remember!
Best food in Iowa!
I'm from Chicago and that's the best food EVER. This was delicious. Looks like not much but food is definitely worth it. Closest I got to Chicago
Never disappoints! Love the Chicago dogs, and they make the best fries in town. Everything on the menu is delicious.
My three year old loved his corn dog that he ate half of. He also enjoyed sharing the tasty home cut fries and perfectly cooked onion rings. I had a tasty italian beef, was moist and tender!! My fiance enjoyed the double play hot dog special. Quite tasty.
The Flying Weenie is one of a kind. If you are in the CeDUH Rapids, Iowa area, it is simply a MUST STOP to eat! Authentic Chicago Dogs, Italian Sausages (which the owner grinds, seasons, and stuffs himself), gyros, home made fries, and everything else on the menu is to die for! A job moved us away from the area, the great flood came in 2008 - but the Gods saved this place from flood waters and it it still alive, well, and delicious as ever!
What a treat after 11 years away! Reasonably priced Everything made fresh to order, so it could take a little time, but your patience will be rewarded and your taste buds will thank you!
Can't miss it. Fashioned out of an old gas and service station, and an airplane 'crashed' on the roof. Brightly colored. Did not appear handicap friendly as far as wheelchairs go. But everything else should be good!
Pleasant quick service and they are not kidding about great prices. The food is hot, tasty and you get so much for what you pay.
I mean...I've never had a bad Italian beef here and the hot giardiniera is nice and hot, not just in name only. Fries are good, also.
Went in for lunch, great menu, authentic chicago dogs, some of the best fresh cut fries I've ever had and plenty of choices to satisfy and palette. I ordered a brat, it's a 10 minute wait but worth every second. It was a foot long work of art extending out of each end of the golden fresh baked bun.
Off the charts delicious. Love this place. I took my kids there and now they take their kids there.
Most unique restaurant visually in town. Should be on your list of things to do if visiting. Chicago dogs are very good. Try the gyro also very good. Thumbs up!
A Cedar Rapid icon to be sure. The best dogs in Iowa. If you didn't stop, you made a mistake.
Best dog-gone place in the Cedar Rapids area to get the best cylindrical meats! Their super fresh fries are the tops, also! Best dangt Chicago dog I've had outside of Chicago!
This place is fantastic. Great food, great price, interesting airplane-themed interior with multiple arcade cabinets, and a very cool airplane-topped building. So far my favorite local restaurant in Cedar Rapids, definitely eat here given the opportunity. It's the only place I've found nearby to get an authentic Chicago dog, plus the fries are killer. 10/10 would recommend
Always good food. My husband would go here all the time with his grandpa, so it's a must stop place for us in CR.
