    House dog
    perla r.

    This place has the best hot dogs, I come all the way from Fullerton just for them. My son got the house dog, I got the veggie dog which is my favorite and the garlic fries but I finished it before I event got to take a picture. The service was also really good, the spot was super clean. I definitely recommend this spot if you guys want hot dogs. We will be back!

    I had my first Dirt Dog at the Shop in Vegas. It was good, and not taking away anything from them but today in Downey it was excellent. I had the House Dog and it was like getting one off a Street Vender in LA. Major compliment by he way. I got mine on a Brioche Bun which took it to a whole new level. Best Dog I ever had. The Garlic Fries hit hard too. I should have asked about the sauce that came with it but it had the consistency of Comeback Sauce but smoother and a pleasing bite of Roasted Garlic. I would eat it on a Shoe. The Cashier who's name is Kenya was very knowledgeable and told me straight up that everything was good but if I like a good Street style Dog than the House Dog was the way to go. The Brioche Bun just took it to another level. The Cook who's name is Carlitos made another batch of those Garlic fries that I had to have. OMG. He didn't speak much English and my Spanish is limited but over this food we had a whole conversation in Engspanglish. Lol. I'm looking for him when I go back. I'm always looking to Hire people like these two. Hey both just capped off my visit. I live in Orange County and I'm plotting a work trip to Downy very soon. I want to give a special thank you to them for making my usual Lunch exciting and pleasing. I would say I'm going I try the Elote Dog next time but what I ordered today ain't broke. Lol. I'll be back very soon. Y'allhollatchaboy!

    From the brioche bun to the meat. Everything I had was flavorful. I don't know why, but the hot dog mixed very well with the cheesesteak . And as for the fries, crispy, seasoned and the sauces mix well. Wish there was a little more meat on the fries but it was still delicious. I'll be back for sure

    I came to this location for the first time on a Tuesday afternoon and it was empty. No wait at all, and service was quick, and appreciated. There is seating indoor and outdoor but we sat outside since it was a bit stuffy inside. The worker was nice and she served us everything we needed. I got a Patty melt, D.U.I. dog, LA Cheesesteak, Asada fries, and Garlic fries. Everything was pretty good and worth the price. This location was decent and I would recommend giving it a try.

    Drove by this place and it looked closed but upon further investigation I found it to be open. The service was great and the food was delicious! Absolutely will be back to try out the rest of the menu. Plenty of seating inside as well as some outside seating. In a pretty big shopping mall so parking will not be a problem. The food while they don't use hot dog buns still tasted amazing! The ambiance was very chill and quiet for lunch. It was not very busy maybe 2 others customers came in as we sat down and enjoyed our meal. They do sell alcohol which is nice but I was on company time. Definitely a 9.5/10 will be back to sample the rest of the menu.

    Dirt Dog has been on my radar for a while for their hot dogs as they have locations in LA, Long Beach, and the Las Vegas Strip. What finally got me to come in was because I saw an article on LA Taco which mentioned that Dirt Dog had some legit carnitas. The article was written in 2023 and, unfortunately, Dirt Dog isn't presently serving the carnitas; however, we still made sure we took the opportunity to try their hot dogs, carne asada fries, tacos, and elote. Our favorite thing was the hot dog that they are known for. I kept it simple with their "house dog", because I don't need a fancy dog to be happy. What I appreciated about the hot dog is that they had a pretty top quality hot dog bollilo/bun, I appreciated the bacon wrapped beef hot dog, and the sauteed veg. It's a good hot dog. I liked the carne asada fries as the fries are crispy with seasoning and the dressings (salsa, onion, cilantro, guac) and carne asada were nice. Their large size wasn't really super large, but it was a decent portion size for my wife and I. Elote and tacos were okay for me - they're not what I'd order on a return visit. If I wanted asada, I'd get it with the fries. I hope that they'll consider bringing back their carnitas at a later time as I'd love to try them. For now, I'm glad that I finally got to try this place.

    Elote Dog
    Shannon D.

    Wowwwwww! This place was absolutely DELICIOUS!!! We got the agua frescas, elote dog, carne asada fries, birria tacos, and of course some cheesecake and everything was seriously a 10 out of 10!!! I would give them 6 stars if I could! The staff was also very nice and friendly, they even brought our food to our table for us! The place is pretty small inside so only a few tables available but we looooved the vibe! The music was pumping and we appreciated the Snoop Dogg hahaha! Anyway, can't recommend this place enough, come check it out! You can't go wrong with anything you get here!

    Aqua Fresca - their Jamaica mix
    Cheryl V.

    Came with family for dinner tonight, I was craving hot dogs and esquite, this spot was perfect! The entire staff were all so great but a big special thanks to Julie, girl you are the sweetest thing and just absolutely made our night special. Thank you so much! The vibes here are casual and comfy, la comfort food for sure! We came starving! Ordered $100 worth of food that could have easily fed four people...but anyways.... I had the elote veggie dog on the lobster roll and the veggie house special on the regular bun. I enjoyed both very much but my favorite was the elote dog. My husband had the regular beef LA cheesesteak dog on a lobster roll and he said it was so good and didn't leave one bite. We also ordered a large esquite, hit the spot for sure! Got a large strawberry Jamaica in a little jarrito it was so damn cute, this was like nothing I've tried before and I am now putting this on my cravings list!! We got three orders of wings, one set in each flavor because we couldn't make up our minds on which one to try lol they were all good but my favorites were the bbq and mango habanero. We ordered the small dirty fries and that spicy ketchup was bomb! Fries were delicious and well cooked. We also got a churro and deep fried Oreos. My god. That churrro. It was like the cherry on top of everything. It was perfectly fried and warm and slightly gooey inside. Served with the little cream side it was just to die for. Overall I have zero complaints, the food came out so quick! Everything was fresh and well made and it compensated for the price, I think it was well worth it. Will def be coming back!

    Do you offer any vegan options at this time?

    There are 2-3 vegan options with vegan sausages. I recommend adding corns on top. It's very delicious!

    Is this place pet friendly?

    Yes. They have a patio dining area. There was a couple with a very large poodle dining in the patio area when I was there.

    What are the veggie dogs like?

    You can order any dog style, just let them know you want it with a veggie dog. My son enjoyed it

Their menu consisted a huge selection of beer, sausages and dipping sauces for fries. We opted for the Duchesse sour, Dr. Browns Black Cherry pop, Duck sausage, Buffalo sausage, and small fries with curry ketchup. The ambience was great! It felt like a beer hall since it had long tables and benches in the middle, everyone was drinking beer having a great time. There were also smaller cozier tables on the side if you wanted a more intimate space. We enjoyed our drinks and people watched while we waited for our food. The Duchesse red ale sour was really yummy, it was a good balance of sweet and tartness. We got the duck, bacon, and jalapeño sausage with sweet peppers and caramelized onions, the hot dog was delicious!! The sausage was a bit rich but the savory flavours were incredible, it was grilled well with a nice crispy skin and paired really well with the sweet peppers. You also get a huge selection of different mustards to try - yellow, dijon, seeded, honey, brown, you name it, they've got it. The buffalo, cherry and mint sausage was very good as well, but it's a bit more dry and gamey than the duck. The grilled bun is just ok, it's a solid blank canvas to highlight the tasty sausages. The fries are fat boys and seasoned very well. I normally am not a fan of thick fries but these changed my mind, the curry ketchup gave it a nice complexity as well. I just wish they gave you more sauce since the fries are so chunky. :) Had a really fun time overall and can't wait to come back and try their other sausages and beer options.
