    Coney Cheese Dog

    They load up the hot dogs! The coney dog I had didn't have much chili but had a boat load of shredded cheese. The sliders were surprisingly very good. Would get those again and come back to try a different hot dog. Also could've sworn they used to have more hot dog options. Still a cool place to check out!

    Big Chicago Dawg

    Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the reason it is sacrilege to put ketchup on a Chicago hotdog is that it will disrupt the harmony. If I've learned anything in my three months and change in the city, it's that Chicago hotdogs are all about balance This is why, thus far, the stand across from the art Institute has been unbeaten. Everything works beautifully together, and the celery salt is prominent and noticeable. With such perfection, who needs ketchup? While it wasn't at the level of needing ketchup, the Big Chicago at Devil Dawgs was an okay hot dog, but one where are the execution put it behind others I've had in the city. It comes back to balance. Namely, the applies to the mustard, neon relish, and celery salt. The relish was in over-abundance, which overpowered everything else with its salt and acid. Meanwhile, the mustard and celery salt were just wisps instead of a more prominent and noticeable flavor. The frankfurter itself also fell short. I find that a truly terrific hot dog has a bit of snap to it, and this one wasn't at that level. Thus, while Devil Dawgs may fit the bill if one is hungry and nearby, however, for a truly great Chicago hot dog, there are better places out there.

    Well well well... you've done it again devil dawgs! Another fabulous meal me and my partner enjoyed some delicious Weiner together. I got the coney w no mustard and they got the cheddar dawg!! We also highly recommend the cheese curds and milkshakes!! We got a chocolate Oreo shake w peanut butter to share the inside of this place is so fun and really adds to the experience! Not to mention kiosks for easy ordering!! we will be shashaying back soon

    The atmosphere was pretty cute for a hot dawg place. Staff was super helpful. The dawgs were darned good and the shakes, holy moly! Tater Tots and Fries were also good, but surprisingly it was too much to eat. I think that's a good thing. After a long day of running around, this was the perfect spot for a quick bite. It's also right next door to our hotel, so super convenient.

    Blue Demons Dawg

    Great convenient location, right underneath the red line. I've been meaning to try Devil Dawgs for some time now, and with a few locations around the city, I'm honestly surprised it has taken me this long. All the hot dogs, especially their "Devil Dawgs" are on the pricey side. Especially when you don't get fries with your order. The quality of the dog is definitely there though. They use all beef Red Hots instead of Vienna. I ordered their Blue Demons Dawg. I wanted something spicy, and this came with devil sauce, onion, sauerkraut, pickle, and spicy mustard. I was really hoping it was spicy, especially with their "devil sauce@ but it lacked any serious heat. Overall a really delicious dawg, and I can't wait to try a few of their other offerings.

    It's a a hole in the wall with a really interesting menu(see pics). It's also right next to the Belmont red brown green and purple line really convenient Tater tots is always a plus as opposed to the ubiquitous french fries. Having had the Icelandic dog in Iceland I can tell you the original us better, their version however is not bad at all. Onion rings on a hotdog is a good thing. Be warned as advertised the blue demon dog is spicy. The shake selection is also noteworthy.

    We stopped in at Devil dogs on a Friday evening and we had a good time. I really like the atmosphere and have cool pictures and drawings in a public art and stuff that I really enjoyed. I got couple chili dogs, cheese fries. It was good. My wife and kids didn't like the hotdogs because it was a snap type of dog but I liked it, I would go here again service cool fast to the

    Seriously not for the faint at heart! While in Chicago, it seems necessary to consume a hot dog or two.....so I found this place......whoa! The place is just a small little shop....decorated to look graffiti'd and plastered w/ pictures, posters, etc........while there I ordered something called a "Bulldawg".....what's that? How about a deep fried Chicago dog piled with chili coleslaw, & cheese! It was a mess of a hot dog (intended) it definitely was not health food, but it was tasty.....and yes, dogs are defiantly better in Chicago.....it was definitely a Vienna beef dog. No fancy presentation here....the dog is wrapped in paper. I also ordered a Milkshake while I was here......it was really one of the better milkshakes that I have had in a while.....extremely tasty. Check them out

    We went here with 14 middle schoolers and it was a hit! The vegetarian option was fantastic! The Shane's looked amazing, I'm bummed i didn't get one :( I'll definitely be returning!

    There's just something about a burger that actually lives up to the hype--and Little Bad Wolf does…read moreexactly that. Stacked unapologetically high, this burger is everything you want and more: juicy, perfectly seared patties layered with melty cheese, crispy bacon, and those golden, crunchy fried onions that take it completely over the top. Every bite is rich, savory, and just messy enough to remind you you're eating something seriously good. The toasted bun somehow holds it all together (barely), soaking up every bit of flavor without getting lost in the chaos. And then... the shoestring fries. Thin, crispy, golden perfection--light but addictive, with that ideal crunch that makes it impossible to stop at just one (or ten). They're the kind of fries you keep reaching for without even realizing it, especially dipped in that creamy, tangy sauce on the side. And let's not forget the drinks--just as good as the food. Refreshing, perfectly balanced, and the kind you sip slow while taking it all in (but somehow they disappear way too fast). It's not just a burger--it's one of Chicago's most iconic bites for a reason. Bold, indulgent, and absolutely worth every single napkin you'll need after. The ambiance inside is GORGEOUS!

    My husband and I walked in on a Sunday evening for dinner and were able to be seated right away…read more The atmosphere is dark and moody, and it made sense once I realized it was the same owners as Gretel. Loved the 90s female R&B playlist they had going! Little Bad Wolf has been on my list FOR YEARS to try the burger! My husband got the burger with fried onions and I got some Bao because those also looked delicious and were a popular menu item. Honestly the 3 stars are only that high because of the service. Our server was friendly and attentive + the food came out hot and quick. Unfortunately, the food was pretty disappointing. The burger was swimming in a puddle of grease and just picking it up made your hands greasy + was dripping grease. The fries that came with it were floppy, soggy, and sad...but at least warm? I personally wouldn't order this again. The Bao were better, but small for the price and honestly were just okay? It was nice they gave you sauces you could add, but I found the Bao's to already have enough sauce so I didn't need them. Overall I left feeling confused and disappointed. I don't feel the need to come back here - Little Bad Will was a one and done experience for me.

    I have gotten this to go a few times but this was my first time eating there! My bf and I sat at…read morethe bar and had the best time! They have a ton of cocktails and they are very cool! We were able to chat with the general manager a bit and hear NADC story, it made me love this spot even more! I got a passion fruit drink with boba this was great! As we were chatting they mentioned an eggnog drink! I love eggnog so this was for me, and it was perfect! Such cool cocktails here, I had no idea!! We split the burger which was phenomenal. Even better eating it in person! I learned this is a pressed patty and not a smash burger. This is my favorite burger in the city! Such a cool vibe in here, very fun music and decor. I'm obsessed!

I thought there…read morewould be a lot of people so I was surprised that I walked in for lunch on Sunday and it wasn't busy, which was nice. My friend and I each ordered a burger and fries for ourselves. The NADC burger ($16) was decent, but it didn't blow my mind like people have raved about. I know it's not the original location which can play a part as well. What I really enjoyed and even finished my friend's were the fries. I love some good fries and these were top quality. You could taste the difference of the oil these fries were made in. They were nice and crispy and very good! I could keep eating them and would rather get the fries than the burger next time. I'd probably still get a burger since I need some meat and savory.
