Grandma Loves You

Grandma Loves You is a family-run spot for decked out wiener hot dogs and foot-long subs. 

Tucked into a corner of a plaza located just a few steps from Rosedale station, this tiny takeout counter may be overshadowed by next door's Starbucks, but it's slinging out some mean dogs.

That being said, their cold cut sandwiches are top-sellers too.

Sweet, crispy and gooey, with the flakey bun: it's the hot dog I didn't know I needed.
