Sinbad's Hot Dogs in Sparks Reopens Nearly Half a Year After Being Rammed by Truck

Sinbad’s Hot Dogs will be reopening May 14th about half a year after a truck with a driver who is reported to have had a seizure crashed into its front door on November 24th, causing significant damage and leading to lengthy repairs. The Sparks establishment at 418 McCarran Blvd opened in 1979.

On its updated gofundme, which raised nearly $20,000, there's one photo of a sign which reads “We survived 2020 and 2025!”

“It's been a long 5 1/2 months,” Kristine Maioli writes.

“Many ups and downs in so many ways but WE MADE IT! I'm grateful for each of you. Wow, words really can't do enough to explain how much I appreciate your kind hearts throughout this process. Thank you again for stepping into our lives and helping us get through one of the toughest times so far. The city and health are all signed off and we've been working day after day to do the final touches and stock the empty shelves. We will be staffed and ready for you. Grand Reopening Dates are... Thursday May 14th 10:30am-6:30pm, Friday May 15th 10:30am-6:30pm AND Saturday May 16th 10:30am-3:30pm.

Normal hours of Tues thru Fri will resume May 19th. We will try to open one Saturday a month as well. Hope to see you soon and THANK YOU AGAIN. You're the real heros and our angels for sure Also, thank you to Dave Brooks Construction for stepping in and taking care of it all. Dave and Austin are wonderful, honest, straight forward guys and a family owned business. As well as the City of Sparks and Washoe County Health and Farmer's Insurance for being patient with me and walking me through the process. Hope to see you soon. I will steam as fast as I can.”
