"A family-owned business for more than 30 years, Earle’s on Crenshaw is usually filled with loyal locals who love its famous hot dogs. There is the usual all-beef version with an accompanying all-beef chili, of course, but don’t overlook the vegan dogs, links, and chili. Both omnivores and herbivores leave full and happy (turkey burgers and chicken sausages are available, too, for poultry lovers). The low-key dining room and quick service make it easy to pop by for lunch, or whenever a hot dog is in the cards." - Rebecca Roland
