Capitol Lunch

Excellent hot dog, good service, love that they kept the inside decor the same. The place is a New Britain landmark, no reason to change it. The sauce, I can't put my finger on it, but the current owners, at some point, must have changed the recipe, and in my opinion, not a change for the better. Slightly off from what I remember. Still a solid dog and worth a trip. Parking on Main St. can be a hassle, so parking in New Brite Plaza is a good option.

This is a favorite childhood place ❤ I got to bring my fiance here as I no longer live in CT. I was showing him my hometown n with that comes along the good food. The famous sauce to me if I may say is a little different but it still will do. My finance even bought a shirt for memories. He truly enjoyed the food n the people.

The food at the place is great but oh my gosh is the owner so mean for no reason. a worker of his gave someone some napkins and it was a problem that she gave to much and after that he had an attitude that a customer was asking for a wrapper for a burger. There was no rush and no reason for it. Just treat your customers the way you would want to be treated. You lost a customer

I grew up eating Capital Lunch hotdogs, I love them so much and your home made sauce is amazing, my mouth is watering just to think of it. One of the best restaurants in New Britain Connecticut. I live in Orlando Florida now but ever time I go back home the first and last thing I do is go get me some hotdogs. I even brought some back with me on the plane back home to Orlando Florida. Please don’t ever close your doors your restaurant, your food and the people that work there are all amazing.

Full disclosure that I went here consistently as a kid. It is one of those childhood memories that I am passing on to my son. After being away for a solid period of time I went back the other day and I'm happy to report it hasn't changed a bit. It looks the same, smells the same, and the food is still just as good. The sauce for the hot dogs is unique to this place and is a meat based red sauce. I find that you'll either like it or you won't so ask to try some ahead of ordering. The hot dogs are amazing and have a nice 'snap' to them with every bite. The usual is with mustard, onion, and sauce but some leave off the mustard and they're still as good. The rest of the food is good as well although we always go there for the dogs.
