    When in Rome, right? I was told by a local to not go to a chain restaurant for a Chicago hot dog. Locals support local here and I see why. The Chicago dog was not basic dog at all. It had plenty of toppings, most noticeable was the famous relish. I don't know how to explain it but there was an explosion of flavor in each bite. It's not something that can be easily replicated. Must be portions of the topping to dog. Definitely a must try. Also tried the burger just for a comparison or the experience. It was a pretty good size. Interesting flavor but not as much wow factor as the hot dog. Fries weren't anything special to me. On the soggy side which I know some people prefer. Standing room only inside. You're surrounded by others eating or waiting. Counter of condiments available to help yourself. Do not expect fine dining but expect good food.

    Got two hot dogs & split a fry! A Everything was really good. Would definitely go back!

    This was a nice spot to grab a quick lunch! They were very busy, but seemed to move quickly. The service was good- but not necessarily outstanding, but that could have been due to the large crowd. The person behind the counter disappeared for a bit and the bags of food started piling up in the window- because of that, my fries weren't as hot as I would have liked, but they were still very good! The slider was filling and so delicious!

    The fact that this place isn't a full 5 star is a disgrace. I have NEVER had a Chicago Dog and went here before closing on a Friday, super busy and they still treated me like I'm their first customer of the day. I NEVER eat hot dogs but this dawg was so good I went back and ordered another one. Beyond blessed and thankful to have been here.

    We know that Chicago is all about their pizza, popcorn and dogs and this was our stop for a good hotdog. The place is super small, but they have outside seating for you to enjoy. It's very crowded because everyone's waiting for their order. The guy at the register was super awesome and helpful and took your time with every single customer. I made it worth it. The food was amazing. You can tell that this establishment definitely paired their food with the right flavors to enhance the experience. The milkshake was more on the concrete mixer side but still really pleasant on a hot day. If you haven't had a Chicago dog come on in and try this one.

    My friend was visiting from San Francisco and she wanted to try a Chicago dog so I took her to Devil Dawgs. Devil Dawgs makes the best Chicago dog I've ever had! So fresh and flavorful. She is pescatarian so it was awesome that she was able to get a veggie dog Chicago style. She also had the Icelandic Dawg which she said was very good as well. My Chicago dog came out very fast but her veggie dog took about 10 minutes. I love how the location is close to magnificent mile so it was easy to grab the dogs then go back to shopping. If you need to take someone to get a Chicago dog I highly recommend Devil Dawgs!

    5 Pc Strips w/ cheese Fries

    I ordered the 5-piece chicken strips with fries, a side of cheese sauce, and the devil sauce -- and wow, this hit exactly how I needed it to. The chicken strips were perfectly crispy on the outside and super juicy on the inside. You can tell they're made fresh -- not dry at all, just tender and flavorful with that golden crunch in every bite. The fries were just as good -- hot, crispy, and the perfect base for that cheese sauce. Speaking of the cheese... so smooth and rich, it honestly made the whole meal even better. And the devil sauce?? SO good. It has that perfect balance of heat and flavor -- not overwhelming, but definitely gives a little kick that keeps you going back for more. Everything together was just one of those simple but so satisfying meals. Perfect portions, great flavor, and exactly what you want when you're craving comfort food. Definitely would order this again -- no question.

    Extremely fast service, order done in like 2 min at most! I'm not a hot dog connoisseur but good crisp dogs. Had the coney island which had chili, cheese and onions. A little more onions next time pls. Also tried the chicago dog: crisp, juicy, crunchy, sour and the celery salt makes it! Like the relatively small size dogs so you can get multiple different ones to try different flavor combinations.

    While a classic Chicago dog is an essential eating experience, I gotta hand it to Devil Dawgs for elevating that experience by making the all beef hot dog a spicy one instead. That coupled with the many additional varieties in flavor in toppings may have changed the way I'm currently thinking about hot dogs. The outdoor seating was great, some counter space for a quick bite inside but that was mostly crowded by the long line of people pushing in to avoid the cold. Very enjoyable and quick experience.

    When in Chicago--having a hot dog seems fitting. I had the chili dog and it didn't disappoint! The menu has something for everyone, even vegan hot dogs. The interior has a ledge for eating while standing and there are a few tables outside too. Service was quick and I enjoyed my meal.

    While traveling to Chicago I knew I had to try a hotdog, saw this place and decided to try it, I order a bacon sausage hotdog with mustard, when I first came in the shop was very small and it was packed so I knew it was going to be good, the staff was super nice and told me their most popular items. All my friend order something different and all were delicious. I was impressed when I saw they had a veggie hotdog, we have a pescatarian friend so she was so happy she could also join. The place was super clean, I will say there is limited sitting since it's a small establishment but overall it was a quick spot for us so we did not mind, I will be coming back if in Chicago!!! Try it

    Fresh cut fries will forever catch my attention and these were perfect! Fries were fresh, Chicago Dog was good, but not the best. You order at a kiosk and wait for your number to be called. There's no inside dining, but you can eat outside on the patio if you can find a spot. Would definitely return for other items. The chicken tenders seemed popular as well. Oh they have milkshakes as well! Go check them out

    Great, hot dog. Juicy but very little char on the dog. Would get again though because the flavor is very nice

    I got a Devil Dawg and it was delicious. The fries were perfect and fresh and was a good value as well. Seemed like a great local spot.

    I heard great reviews from friends about this place and im so glad that i got to try it during my…read moretrip. came on a saturday night around 5:30 without a reservation and we were lucky enough to be seated without a wait at the bar. i noticed when we were leaving the restaurant, the waitlist had gotten longer. The waitress had informed us that a single is a double, a double is a triple, etc! Opted for a single with bacon as an add on and it was delectable. The thick pieces of bacon were truly the cherry on top. It comes with a slice of pickle. Additional sides, including fries, are extra. We unconventionally got an omelette.. but let's just say it was one of the fluffiest omelettes I've had-- not your classic breakfast omelette. Inside are roasted peppers and cheese. It's dimly lit inside to set the vibe. Service was quick and the staff were friendly. They have a QR code on the table linked to your check that you can use to pay or a check can be requested instead.

    Several people who have either visited or lived in Chicago told me to try the infamous cheeseburger…read moreat Au Cheval so I made it a point to stop by during my trip. I planned to dine at Au Cheval for Sunday lunch and unfortunately there weren't any reservations available on Resy for lunchtime when I checked. Of note, Resy charges $2.50 per person to book the reservation which does not go towards the bill. After looping around for parking and finding a metered spot, I checked in at the restaurant shortly after 11:30am and was told I was 28th in line and the host could not quote a wait time due to the inclusion of online reservations. I thought that was a bit odd so I ended up walking around to explore the surrounding businesses. I finally received a text that my table was ready around thirty minutes later. The restaurant itself is not big but gives off an old fashioned vibe which I guess correlated with the type of food served. I ordered a single cheeseburger, a side of thick cut peppered bacon, and a side of French fries. I figured it was more economical to order a side of bacon rather than adding it to my burger so I can eat as much or as little as I wanted. The food came around fifteen minutes later. The burger itself did not look as big on the plate as I expected, although it was apparent how thick the two hamburger patties were. Since everyone was raving about the burger I had high expectations which unfortunately were not met. The burger tasted like a burger found at any average diner across the country. The bacon pieces were thick and flavorful but I don't think they elevated the burger as much as I'd like. Also, I wished there were cheese options rather than offering only American cheese which is probably the cheapest cheese that can be added on a burger. The fries reminded me of In-N-Out fries but the fries at the bottom of the cup were way too salty as if all the salt was added to the bottom of the cup instead of trickling down after being sprinkled on the fries on top. Considering all the hype about Au Cheval and the claims that their cheeseburger is one of the best burgers in the country or world, I was very underwhelmed. If this burger were to represent the Chicago food scene on a national level, it should rank lower than several other major cities in the United States.
