Barrio Dogg

"Barrio Dogg is a low-rider-themed restaurant and bar serving hot dogs on a Sonora-style bun and lots of tasty toppings. The Xolito is inspired by the way they do it in Tijuana, with a slick of mayo, grilled onions, jalapeños, cheddar cheese, and crunchy garlic. You could also get a bacon-wrapped dog, or opt for a veggie dog, but definitely consider sticking around for a cold michelada with a sweet-tangy-salty chamoy rim. It’s a good option before a show at The Rady Shell, a game at Petco Park, or when you desperately need something after walking around the neighborhood and admiring the murals." - ligaya malones

"At Barrio Dogg, chef Pablo Rios serves his own twist on the Tijuana-style bacon-wrapped hot dogs beloved throughout Baja California."

"Baja-style hot dogs get a gourmet twist at this Logan Avenue eatery filled to the brim with lowrider memorabilia. Barrio Dogg’s innovative takes on the hot dog range from the grilled onion-topped Xolito — a homage to the Tijuana hot dog — to surprising franks like the Samurai and Pueblito, respectively inspired by bahn mi and chiles en nogada. A new taproom expansion keeps the good times rolling, with a 16-tap craft beer setup and a killer michelada list." - Mario A. Cortez

"Gourmet hot dog grillers Barrio Dogg have introduced a taproom expansion at its Logan Avenue eatery. The new annex includes 45 seats of dining space, for a total capacity of 105 guests across both sections, a tap system featuring 16 handles of standout local and Mexican craft beer, and additional space for the shop’s wall-to-wall collection of lowrider and Chicano art — which has characterized the establishment since its 2017 arrival. As part of its opening festivities, Barrio Dogg rolled out its exclusive Pinstripe Pale Ale, a signature beer made in collaboration with Second Chance Beer Company." - Mario A. Cortez
