Here's the scoop. It's tough to rate a hot dog place when you know what you can already get for $1.50 at Costco. That being said this is a fun place to eat even if you're not into hot dogs and a must try for the hot dog connoisseur. We got 4 different dogs. They were all excellent but if you build your own they can approach $10 each if you elect for a couple toppings like cheese/bacon/spam. They were good size but not gigantic. So if you're a pretty good size guy and/or extremely hungry, one dog probably isn't going to cut it so now you're looking at $14+ for a couple dogs. No sides (like fries) included so a meal here can get pricey quickly especially considering you're eating hot dogs, not...

What a great find. If you like a quality dog. Then look no further. I got a Windy City, aka Chicago Dog. It was fantastic, made to order and served with a smile. Only one employee, but he was helpful, courteous and friendly. Everything about the place was nice from the cartoonist decor to the outstanding dogs. The only complaint I have is the yuppy names and buns out of the bag. It takes reading descriptions to figure out traditional dog names. The buns are neither steamed or toasted on a grill. A little disappointing for a top notch dog joint. Don't let that keep you from trying the place out though. Oh, they have a great selection of old school sodas.

GREAT dog options!! We tried the Windy City, Das Wurst, Elote Dog, and Loaded Baked Potato Tots, and everything was REALLY good!! It's definitely worth a try! Service was good, but staff could step it up a bit. Really nice choices for bottles of soda. Some old-fashioned choices we hadn't seen in a while.
