Paragraphs:
Customers come for the smoky Filipino barbecue—especially the pork skewers, isaw, and tenga—and many say the flavors are spot on for legit Southeast Asian street food. Folks also enjoy fun add-ons like fried chicken skin, and a few call out taho as a cozy rainy-day treat. For those after something simpler, there are smokies, hotdogs, and burgers, with several diners saying the meat is cooked fresh on the griddle and turns out tender.

Diners enjoy the friendly, owner-run feel and the waterfront location near the Visitors Centre. Some mention a super-warm Filipina lady at the cart, while others note the team can vary—sometimes a one?person operation, other times newer staff—which affects speed. Although many praise the food, a few diners mention long waits, even with short lines, and say orders occasionally arrive barely warm. There’s one account of cold rice and a chicken skewer with an old aftertaste, which stood out against otherwise positive experiences. Pricing splits opinion: some find it fair for a touristy spot, while others call a $10 bare hotdog steep.

Hotdog Hustlin’ also pops up for events. Corporate clients report professional, friendly service and crowd-pleasing barbecue, but a youth sports organizer shared that the cart arrived late both days, so reliability for large, time-sensitive events feels mixed. Overall, people love the smoky Pinoy flavors and friendly vibe on the waterfront, although patience for the queue and occasional inconsistencies may be part of the experience.
