"South Florida is full of people fleeing cities with winters, and Hot Dog Heaven feels like it was ripped straight from a freezing Chicago sidewalk, in the best way possible. You can get a wonderful Chicago dog at the little shop (which has been open since 1979), but there are also Italian beef sandwiches, sides of giardiniera, and—the sleeper hit of the menu—a grilled salami sandwich. Hot Dog Heaven is home to the best hot dog in Fort Lauderdale, but it’s also just a classic and a lovely place to stop for a nostalgic weekend lunch. Just know you’ll probably have to sit outside or take it to go. This place is tiny." - ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo

Phenomenal little spot with amazing and tasty sandwiches. Vienna Hot Dog, Burgers, Italian sausage, Polish sausage, & a delicious secret chicken breast sandwich gotta try the cheese and chili cheese fries.

A classic Fort Lauderdale spot that’s recently under new ownership. If you like true Chicago style dogs or chi beef sandwiches, this is the place for you!

Ordered from Instacart and they didn't honored the buy 1 get 1 free. And refused to honor it. Plus my hot god bun had seeds on it. Didn't ask for seeds. Not heaven at all.

So happy they reopened, hot dog heaven is always my favorite place to go for a quick but delicious lunch and the best hot dogs ever.

Delicious hot dogs, heavenly theming, and Chicago-centric menu items. Tried the Chicago dog and the polish dog on this visit, both were excellent! The hot dogs/sausages themselves were very good quality, perfect texture. The other ingredients were tasty as well, very good quality. Indoor seating is not available right now, not sure if that’s coming back. It’s all outdoor seating on their mostly covered patio or to go. There’s a small parking lot in the back of the restaurant with a few normal spots and parallel parking options as well. I love all the restaurant’s decor, with terrazzo style tables and lots of hand painted signs. Gives classic American restaurant vibes.

I've been a loyal patron over 40 years. The staff are all awesome folks. Great food, whether dining in or takeout. I highly recommend the Chicago dog or sausage. The homemade brownie, brookie, and fries.

First time visiting this place. I ordered the Famous Chicago style hot dog with all the fixings and it was absolutely delicious. The service was good and friendly. The downside is that the parking lot is tiny and it had just poured down raining and it was completely flooded making it almost impossible to get out the car and make your way to the restaurant. The inside of the restaurant was nothing special. It's like eating at a half sized Subway with only counter space available. Also the prices were too high. $10 got me a regular sized hot dog and smallish cup of saurkraut. For that price I felt it should have been a combo with french fries and a drink. Despite those deficiencies the hot dog did live up to it's great fame in taste.

My boyfriend and I came to visit FL from Canada for only a couple of days and decided to drop by here to try Chicago style dogs. The staff was so friendly, especially their lovely and hospital cashier lady and the food was so amazing that we had to drop by again before heading home. We have joked around about visiting FL again sometime soon just to go back and enjoy take out from this restaurant again. It’s always the most humble food spots that serve the best food and provide the best service. Love from Canada!
