What a perfect first experience to the Chicago dog! Instant first impressions were a friendly smile and warm service, and a delicious smell! The shop is small and quaint, but the food was out of this world. Delicious beef, fluffy seeded buns, incredible relish and peppers and tomatoes- amazing! But the fries... Hands down the best fries ever! I don't know what the secret is, but I will come back again and again! Thank you so much!!!

I always stop here on trips the Chicago when staying at Lincoln Hotel. The Bacon hot tog is great. The fries are very crispy. The owner will make you feel at home

Watch out !! Went there on Halloween of 2018 and got halfway home to find that they forgot the French fires. Tried to call but no one answered ever...the food was cold and order not right and then realized I was overcharged by $20 not including the missing drench fries. Went there to talk to owner/manager about the discrepancy to find that the license has been suspended.

This place served me one of the best hot dogs I have ever had. I really liked the fresh toppings that they put on the Chicago style dogs. I really love Portillo's hot dogs, but I think this place might be even better. The fries are also very crispy and delicious. I strongly recommend that you eat here at least once if you like hot dogs.

Absolutely fantastic place!! Dogs are mouth-watering and the fries are out of this world. It's CHEAP and soooo delicious! Jack, the owner, is such a great guy - very sassy, funny, and amenable. Loved this place and will for sure return. Best place for hot dogs in Chicago, and they know it.

Price wasn't bad for a restaurant in Chicago, but the food wasn't that great. My hamburger was pretty burnt but still edible. The main reason I've given this place a two-star rating though is that the owner of the place was extremely rude. I almost walked out on him but the people i was with were hungry and wanted something to eat. I will never eat there again.

The best Chicago dog and the best French fries!! Seriously I wonder what kind of oil they use for the fries, they are perfectly crispy and slightly seasoned and come in a nice big quantity - great for sharing or indulging. Lucky to live nearby for late night bites, the menu is big but can never bring myself to order anything other than a hot dog.

When I visit my friend in Chicago, I always look forward to getting chili cheese fries at this place. This is hands down amazing drunk food. I am not sure about their hot today since I've never ordered one, but the chili cheese fries are to die for when you're drunk. This is definitely not a restaurant but a walk in order and try to grab a spot to stand and eat. I gave 3 stars for the price range of food in Chicago.
