Authentic Chicago Hot Dog Joint in Marietta, Georgia. I used to come to this place years ago, back when it was located over on Chert & Roswell, next to the I-75, near the Big Chicken. I was familiar with the original owner Jack and his snot-nosed kid Andy. I stopped patronized the place when they replaced Authentic Vienna Beef Dogs with those knock-off Red Hot Chicago Dogs but still tried to pass them off as Vienna Beef. But the new owners over at this new location have thankfully brought back Real Vienna Beef Hot Dogs. All of the Chicago Street Food is legit at this place. They have Authentic Chicago Dogs, Italian Beef Sandwiches, Pizza Puffs (IL Taco Brand), Polishes, Gyros (Kronos Brand, off of the gyrator), Italian Sausages, Italian Combos, Ecetera. So if you're a transplanted/expatriated Chicagoan this is the place in Metro Atlanta for you to get a taste of home.
If you want to try the Famed Chicago Dog and/or other Chicago Street Cuisine or you just have a love for Chicago Food this is a place outside of Chicago where you can get the genuine articles. The staff is friendly, I personally think that this location looks better on the inside than the old one did and if you're a Native Born Chicagoan like myself this is good place to meet other Chicago Ex-pats. I love this place.
