Puka Dog Hawaiian Style Hot Dogs

Fast and friendly service with crazy tasty weenies! My wife has celiac and they were so accommodating to her and made sure all our food was gluten free!

Tried to come here because of another review that said they could make a gluten free dog (i.e. no bun). Doesn't seem that difficult to do, but the person who helped us told us to go somewhere else. If you can't eat gluten don't assume you can get a dog and toppings.

Let me begin this review by saying I very rarely write bad reviews for places. As someone who has worked in the service industry, fast food, serving, and bartending, for 8 years now, I often show places a lot of grace and understand that busy atmospheres warrant simple mistakes and misunderstandings. The main reason for me writing this review is the service. I will say the nice man working the counter was no issue. Additionally, there were several young women working the food area preparing lemonade and hot dogs. Most of them were of no issue. There was simply an issue with one of them. My sister and I both have a severe gluten allergy, and no it’s not a preference nor something we are dramatic about. We would both gladly eat bread, pizza, and pasta if we could. Because of this we asked if they had a lettuce wrap option instead of the traditional bun. The young lady scoffed and laughed at us and replied, “for the hot dog? No.” I understand there is a negative stigma around health fads that people choose to follow, but because we have a severe allergy we didnt expect to be treated as if we were trying to be difficult for no reason. Additionally, allergies should be taken seriously by all establishments since those with allergies should be able to eat out just like anyone else. My sister opted to not get food but I try really hard to roll with punches and conceded to a hot dog without a bun on a plate. I will say the combination of sauces I received were very good and the hot dog was okay, but there was another issue prior to my family and I departure. My family had ordered 3 lemonades along with our food. We received two lemonades with our order and asked for the third. The same lady who scoffed at our request for lettuce wraps began loudly proclaiming that we were only charged for 2. We asked what she would like us to do as we would happily have paid for a third, but instead she took a 3rd lemonade and slammed it down in front of us. I understand the busy environment may have warranted some stress but being treated in this manner was very upsetting. If anyone who works at this establishment would like to reach out to me regarding my family and I’s experience I would be most grateful, and no I would not like any free food or drinks since we do not live here and that would be useless. I would simply like to alert management to this issue so this doesn’t happen to anyone again.
